Abstract
Apicobasal epithelial polarity controls the functional properties of most organs. Thus, there has been extensive research on the molecular intricacies governing the establishment and maintenance of cell polarity. Whereas loss of apicobasal polarity is a well-documented phenomenon associated with multiple diseases, less is known regarding another type of apicobasal polarity alteration - the inversion of polarity. In this Review, we provide a unifying definition of inverted polarity and discuss multiple scenarios in mammalian systems and human health and disease in which apical and basolateral membrane domains are interchanged. This includes mammalian embryo implantation, monogenic diseases and dissemination of cancer cell clusters. For each example, the functional consequences of polarity inversion are assessed, revealing shared outcomes, including modifications in immune surveillance, altered drug sensitivity and changes in adhesions to neighboring cells. Finally, we highlight the molecular alterations associated with inverted apicobasal polarity and provide a molecular framework to connect these changes with the core cell polarity machinery and to explain roles of polarity inversion in health and disease. Based on the current state of the field, failure to respond to extracellular matrix (ECM) cues, increased cellular contractility and membrane trafficking defects are likely to account for most cases of inverted apicobasal polarity.

Abstract
Delivery to the correct membrane domain in polarized epithelial cells is a critical regulatory mechanism for transmembrane proteins. The trafficking of these proteins is directed by short amino acid sequences known as sorting motifs. In six basolaterally-localized proteins lacking the canonical tyrosine- and dileucine-based basolateral sorting motifs, a monoleucine-based sorting motif has been identified. This review will discuss these proteins with an identified monoleucine-based sorting motif, their conserved structural features, as well as the future directions of study for this non-canonical basolateral sorting motif.

Abstract
How human FGFR1 localizes to the PM is unknown. Currently, it is assumed that newly synthesized FGFR1 is continuously delivered to the PM. However, evidence indicates that FGFR1 is mostly sequestered in intracellular post-Golgi vesicles (PGVs) under normal conditions. In this report, live-cell imaging and total internal reflection fluorescence microscopy (TIRFM) were employed to study the dynamics of these FGFR1-positive vesicles. We designed recombinant proteins to target different transport components to and from the FGFR1 vesicles. Mouse embryoid bodies (mEBs) were used as a 3D model system to confirm major findings. Briefly, we found that Rab2a, Rab6a, Rab8a, RalA and caveolins are integral components of FGFR1-positive vesicles, representing a novel compartment. While intracellular sequestration prevented FGFR1 activation, serum starvation and hypoxia stimulated PM localization of FGFR1. Under these conditions, FGFR1 C-terminus acts as a scaffold to assemble proteins to (i) inactivate Rab2a and release sequestration, and (ii) assemble Rab6a for localized activation of Rab8a and RalA-exocyst to deliver the receptor to the PM. This novel pathway is named Regulated Anterograde RTK Transport (RART). This is the first instance of RTK regulated through control of PM delivery.

Abstract
Protein secretion is essential for epithelial tissue homoeostasis and therefore has to be tightly regulated. However, while the mechanisms regulating polarized protein sorting and trafficking have been widely studied in the past decade, those governing polarized secretion remain elusive. The calcium manganese pump SPCA1 and the calcium-binding protein Cab45 were recently shown to regulate the secretion of a subset of soluble cargoes in nonpolarized HeLa cells. Interestingly, we demonstrated that in polarized epithelial cells calcium levels in the trans-Golgi network (TGN), controlled by SPCA1, and Cab45 are critical for the apical sorting of glycosylphosphatidylinositol-anchored proteins (GPI-APs), a class of integral membrane proteins containing a soluble protein attached to the membrane by the GPI anchor, prompting us to investigate the mechanism regulating the polarized secretion of soluble cargoes. By reducing Cab45 expression level or overexpressing an inactive mutant of SPCA1, we found that Cab45 and calcium levels in the TGN drive the polarized apical secretion of a secretory form of placental alkaline phosphatase, exogenously expressed, and the endogenous soluble protein clusterin/Gp80 in Madin-Darby canine kidney (MDCK) cells. These data highlight the critical role of a calcium-dependent Cab45 mechanism regulating apical exocytosis in polarized MDCK cells.

Abstract
Cell-to-cell signalling between niche and stem cells regulates tissue regeneration. While the identity of many mediating factors is known, it is largely unknown whether stem cells optimize their receptiveness to niche signals according to the niche organization. Here, we show that Lgr5+ small intestinal stem cells (ISCs) regulate the morphology and orientation of their secretory apparatus to match the niche architecture, and to increase transport efficiency of niche signal receptors. Unlike the progenitor cells lacking lateral niche contacts, ISCs orient Golgi apparatus laterally towards Paneth cells of the epithelial niche, and divide Golgi into multiple stacks reflecting the number of Paneth cell contacts. Stem cells with a higher number of lateral Golgi transported Epidermal growth factor receptor (Egfr) with a higher efficiency than cells with one Golgi. The lateral Golgi orientation and enhanced Egfr transport required A-kinase anchor protein 9 (Akap9), and was necessary for normal regenerative capacity in vitro . Moreover, reduced Akap9 in aged ISCs renders ISCs insensitive to niche-dependent modulation of Golgi stack number and transport efficiency. Our results reveal stem cell-specific Golgi complex configuration that facilitates efficient niche signal reception and tissue regeneration, which is compromised in the aged epithelium.

Abstract
Vacuolar-type H+-ATPase (V-ATPase) was first identified as an electrogenic proton pump that acidifies the lumen of intracellular organelles. Subsequently, it was observed that the proton pump also participates in the acidification of extracellular compartments. V-ATPase plays important roles in a wide range of cell biological processes and physiological functions by generating an acidic pH; therefore, it has attracted much attention not only in basic research but also in pathological and clinical aspects. Emerging evidence indicates that the luminal acidic endocytic organelles and their trafficking may function as important hubs that connect and coordinate various signaling pathways. Various pharmacological analyses have suggested that acidic endocytic organelles are important for the maintenance of cell polarity. Recently, several studies using genetic approaches have revealed the involvement of V-ATPase in the establishment and maintenance of apico-basal polarity. This review provides a brief overview of the relationship between the polarity of epithelial cells and V-ATPase as well as V-ATPase driven luminal acidification.

Abstract
Apicobasal polarity is a hallmark of retinal pigment epithelium cells and is required to perform their functions; however, the precise roles of the different proteins that execute polarity are still poorly understood. Here, we have studied the expression and location of Scribble, the core member of the polarity basal protein complex in epithelial-derived cells, in human and mouse RPE cells in both control and pathological conditions. We found that Scribble specifically localizes at the basolateral membrane of mouse and human RPE cells. In addition, we observed an increase in the expression of Scribble during human RPE development in culture, while it acquires a well-defined basolateral pattern as this process is completed. Finally, the expression and location of Scribble were analyzed in human RPE cells in experimental conditions that mimic the toxic environment suffered by these cells during AMD development and found an increase in Scribble expression in cells that develop a pathological phenotype, suggesting that the protein could be altered in cells under stress conditions, as occurs in AMD. Together, our results demonstrate, for the first time, that Scribble is expressed in both human and mouse RPE and is localized at the basolateral membrane in mature cells. Furthermore, Scribble shows impaired expression and location in RPE cells in pathological conditions, suggesting a possible role for this protein in the development of pathologies, such as AMD.

Transepithelial Secretion of Mucosal IgM Mediated by Polymeric Immunoglobulin Receptor of Flounder ( Paralichthys olivaceus): In-Vivo and In-Vitro Evidence. Front Immunol 2022; 13:868753.

Abstract
Secretory immunoglobulin (SIg) is crucial for mucosal surface defenses, but the transepithelial secretion of SIg mediated by polymeric immunoglobulin receptor (pIgR) is not clarified in fish. We previously found that flounder (Paralichthys olivaceus) pIgR (fpIgR) and secretory IgM (SIgM) increased in gut mucus post-vaccination. Here, the fpIgR-positive signal was mainly observed in the intestinal epithelium, whereas the IgM-positive signal was mainly distributed in the lamina propria, before immunization. IgM signals increased in the lamina propria and then in the epithelium after immunization with inactivated Vibrio anguillarum, and co-localization between IgM and fpIgR in the epithelium was determined, while the presence of EdU+IgM+ cells in the lamina propria identified the proliferative B cells, revealing that the secretion and transepithelial transport of SIgM locally occurred in the gut of flounder. Subsequently, we established an in-vitro model of transfected MDCK cells that stably expressed the fpIgR. After a recombinant eukaryotic expression plasmid (pCIneoEGFP-fpIgR) was constructed and transfected into MDCK cells, stable expression of the fpIgR in transfected MDCK-fpIgR cells was confirmed, and the tightness and integrity of the polarized cell monolayers grown on Transwells were evaluated. Afterward, the serum IgM of flounder was purified as a binding ligand and placed in the lower compartment of Transwells. An ~800-kDa protein band in the upper compartment was shown to be IgM- and fpIgR-positive, and IgM-positive fluorescence was seen in MDCK-fpIgR cells but not in MDCK-mock cells. Hence, the fpIgR helped polymeric IgM to pass across MDCK-fpIgR cells via transcytosis in a basolateral-to-apical fashion. These new findings provide a better understanding of the pathways shaping mucosal IgM responses and the local mucosal immune mechanisms in teleosts.

A common strategy to improve transmembrane transport in polarized epithelial cells based on sorting signals: Guiding nanocarriers to TGN rather than to the basolateral plasma membrane directly. J Control Release 2021; 339:430-444.

Abstract
The intestinal barrier has always been the rate-limiting step in the oral administration process. To overcome the intestinal barrier, researchers have widely adopted nanocarriers, especially active-targeting nanocarriers strategies. However, most of these strategies focus on the ligand decoration of nanocarriers targeting specific receptors, so their applications are confined to specific receptors or specific cell types. In this study, we tried to investigate more common strategies in the field of transmembrane transport enhancement. Trans-Golgi network (TGN) is the sorting center of biosynthetic route which could achieve polarized localization of proteins in polarized epithelial cells, and the basolateral plasma membrane is where all transcytotic cargos have to pass through. Thus, it is expected that guiding nanocarriers to TGN or basolateral plasma membrane may improve the transcytosis. Hence, we choose sorting signal peptide to modify micelles to guide micelles to TGN (named as BAC decorated micelles, BAC-M) or to basolateral plasma membrane (named as STX decorated micelles, STX-M). By incorporating coumarin-6 (C6) or Cy5-PEG-PCL in the micelles to indicate the behavior of micelles, the effects of these two strategies on the transcytosis were investigated. To our surprise, BAC-M and STX-M behaved quite differently when crossing biological barriers. BAC-M showed significant superiority in colocalization with TGN, transmembrane transport and even in vivo absorption, while STX-M had no significant difference from blank micelles. Further investigation revealed that the strategy of directly guiding nanocarriers to the basolateral plasma membrane (STX-M) only caused the stack of vesicles near the basolateral plasma membrane. So, we concluded that guiding nanocarriers to TGN which related to secretion may contribute to the transmembrane transport. This common strategy based on the physiological function of TGN in polarized epithelial cells will have broad application prospects in overcoming biological barrier.

Abstract
The endocytic compartments keep their interior acidic through the inward flow of protons and anions from the cytosol. Acidification is mediated by a proton pump known as vacuolar-type ATPase (V-ATPase) and transporters conferring anion conductance to the organellar membrane. In this study, we analysed the phenotype of mouse embryos lacking the V-ATPase c-subunit. The mutant embryos differentiated embryonic epithelial tissues, primitive endoderm, epiblast, and extraembryonic ectoderm; however, the organisation of these epithelia was severely affected. The apical-basal polarity in the visceral endoderm layer was not properly established in the mutant embryos, resulting in abnormal epithelial morphology. Thus, the function of V-ATPase is imperative for the establishment and/or maintenance of epithelial cell polarity, which is required for early embryogenesis.

Abstract
Polymeric immunoglobulin receptor (pIgR)-mediated polymeric immunoglobulin A (pIgA) transcytosis across mucosal epithelial cells plays an essential role in mucosal immunity. The general trafficking process has been well investigated, yet the elaborate regulatory mechanisms remain enigmatic. We identified a new pIgR interacting protein, the Rab11 effector Rab11-FIP1. Rab11-FIP1 and Rab11-FIP5 knockdown additively impaired pIgA transcytosis in both polarized and incompletely polarized cells. Moreover, Rab11-FIP1 and Rab11-FIP5 knockdown exhibited more significant inhibitory effects on pIgA transcytosis in incompletely polarized cells than in polarized cells. Interestingly, the trafficking process of pIgA in incompletely polarized cells is distinct from that in polarized cells. In incompletely polarized cells, the endocytic pIgR/pIgA was first transported from the basolateral plasma membrane to the vicinity of the centrosome where Rab11-FIP1 and Rab11-FIP5 bound to it, before the Rab11a-positive endosomes containing pIgR/pIgA, Rab11-FIP1 and Rab11-FIP5 were further transported to the apical plasma membrane via Golgi apparatus. During the trafficking process, TRIM21 mediated the K11-linked polyubiquitination of Rab11-FIP1 and the K6-linked polyubiquitination of Rab11-FIP5 to promote their activation and pIgA transcytosis. This study indicates that polyubiquitinated Rab11-FIP1 and Rab11-FIP5 mediated by TRIM21 cooperatively facilitate pIgA transcytosis and provides new insights into the intracellular trafficking process of pIgA in incompletely polarized cells.

Abstract
Candida species are among the most prevalent and abundant members of the gut mycobiota, with Candida albicans (CA) being the most prominent member. CA colonizes numerous mucosal surfaces, most notably the gastrointestinal (GI) and genitourinary tracts. In a healthy host, CA is a pathobiont that exists as a commensal but can become pathogenic if the host's immune system becomes suppressed. The microbial and/or host factors that dictate CA's ability to colonize mucosal surfaces and its ability to disseminate remain of great interest. Here, we review the recent advances and insights regarding Candida colonization and dissemination of the mammalian GI tract.

Abstract
Syncytial skeletal muscle cells contain hundreds of nuclei in a shared cytoplasm. We investigated nuclear heterogeneity and transcriptional dynamics in the uninjured and regenerating muscle using single-nucleus RNA-sequencing (snRNAseq) of isolated nuclei from muscle fibers. This revealed distinct nuclear subtypes unrelated to fiber type diversity, previously unknown subtypes as well as the expected ones at the neuromuscular and myotendinous junctions. In fibers of the Mdx dystrophy mouse model, distinct subtypes emerged, among them nuclei expressing a repair signature that were also abundant in the muscle of dystrophy patients, and a nuclear population associated with necrotic fibers. Finally, modifications of our approach revealed the compartmentalization in the rare and specialized muscle spindle. Our data identifies nuclear compartments of the myofiber and defines a molecular roadmap for their functional analyses; the data can be freely explored on the MyoExplorer server ( https://shiny.mdc-berlin.de/MyoExplorer/ ).

Abstract
Selective protein distribution on distinct plasma membranes is important for epithelial cell function. To date, how proteins are directed to specific epithelial cell surface is not fully understood. Here we report a conserved DSSDE motif in LDL-receptor (LDLR) modules of corin (a transmembrane serine protease) and CD320 (a receptor for vitamin B12 uptake), which regulates apical membrane targeting in renal epithelial cells. Altering this motif prevents specific apical corin and CD320 expression in polarized Madin-Darby canine kidney (MDCK) cells. Mechanistic studies indicate that this DSSDE motif participates in a Rab11a-dependent mechanism that specifies apical sorting. In MDCK cells, inhibition of Rab11a, but not Rab11b, expression leads to corin and CD320 expression on both apical and basolateral membranes. Together, our results reveal a novel molecular recognition mechanism that regulates LDLR module-containing proteins in their specific apical expression in polarized renal epithelial cells.

Abstract
Neuronal dendrites are highly branched and specialized compartments with distinct structures and secretory organelles (e.g., spines, Golgi outposts), and a unique cytoskeletal organization that includes microtubules of mixed polarity. Dendritic membranes are enriched with proteins, which specialize in the formation and function of the post-synaptic membrane of the neuronal synapse. How these proteins partition preferentially in dendrites, and how they traffic in a manner that is spatiotemporally accurate and regulated by synaptic activity are long-standing questions of neuronal cell biology. Recent studies have shed new insights into the spatial control of dendritic membrane traffic, revealing new classes of proteins (e.g., septins) and cytoskeleton-based mechanisms with dendrite-specific functions. Here, we review these advances by revisiting the fundamental mechanisms that control membrane traffic at the levels of protein sorting and motor-driven transport on microtubules and actin filaments. Overall, dendrites possess unique mechanisms for the spatial control of membrane traffic, which might have specialized and co-evolved with their highly arborized morphology.

Abstract
The Drosophila ovary offers a suitable model system to study the mechanisms that orchestrate diverse cellular processes. Oogenesis starts from asymmetric stem cell division, proper differentiation and the production of fully patterned oocytes equipped with all the maternal information required for embryogenesis. Spatial and temporal regulation of cell-cell interaction is particularly important to fulfill accurate biological outcomes at each step of oocyte development. Progress has been made in understanding diverse cell physiological regulation of signaling. Here we review the roles of specialized cellular machinery in cell-cell communication in different stages of oogenesis.

Abstract
How cells control the proper delivery of vesicles and their associated cargo to specific plasma membrane (PM) domains upon internal or external cues is a major question in plant cell biology. A widely held hypothesis is that expansion of plant exocytotic machinery components, such as SNARE proteins, has led to a diversification of exocytotic membrane trafficking pathways to function in specific biological processes. A key biological process that involves the creation of a specialized PM domain is the formation of a host-microbe interface (the peri-arbuscular membrane) in the symbiosis with arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi. We have previously shown that the ability to intracellularly host AM fungi correlates with the evolutionary expansion of both v- (VAMP721d/e) and t-SNARE (SYP132α) proteins, that are essential for arbuscule formation in Medicago truncatula. Here we studied to what extent the symbiotic SNAREs are different from their non-symbiotic family members and whether symbiotic SNAREs define a distinct symbiotic membrane trafficking pathway. We show that all tested SYP1 family proteins, and most of the non-symbiotic VAMP72 members, are able to complement the defect in arbuscule formation upon knock-down/-out of their symbiotic counterparts when expressed at sufficient levels. This functional redundancy is in line with the ability of all tested v- and t-SNARE combinations to form SNARE complexes. Interestingly, the symbiotic t-SNARE SYP132α appeared to occur less in complex with v-SNAREs compared to the non-symbiotic syntaxins in arbuscule-containing cells. This correlated with a preferential localization of SYP132α to functional branches of partially collapsing arbuscules, while non-symbiotic syntaxins accumulate at the degrading parts. Overexpression of VAMP721e caused a shift in SYP132α localization toward the degrading parts, suggesting an influence on its endocytic turn-over. These data indicate that the symbiotic SNAREs do not selectively interact to define a symbiotic vesicle trafficking pathway, but that symbiotic SNARE complexes are more rapidly disassembled resulting in a preferential localization of SYP132α at functional arbuscule branches.

Abstract
Cancer is a heterogeneous disease, thus one of the central problems is how to dissect the resulting complex phenotypes in terms of their biological building blocks. Computationally, this is to represent and interpret high dimensional observations through a structural and conceptual abstraction into the most influential determinants underlying the problem. The working hypothesis of this report is to consider gene interaction to be largely responsible for the manifestation of complex cancer phenotypes, thus where the representation is to be conceptualized. Here, we report a representation learning strategy combined with regularizations, in which gene expressions are described in terms of a regularized product of meta-genes and their expression levels. The meta-genes are constrained by gene interactions thus representing their original topological contexts. The expression levels are supervised by their conditional dependencies among the observations thus providing a cluster-specific constraint. We obtain both of these structural constraints using a node-based graphical model. Our representation allows the selection of more influential modules, thus implicating their possible roles in neoplastic transformations. We validate our representation strategy by its robust recognitions of various cancer phenotypes comparing with various classical methods. The modules discovered are either shared or specify for different types or stages of human cancers, all of which are consistent with literature and biology.

Abstract
Organelle positioning as many other morphological parameters in a cell is not random. Centriole positioning as centrosomes or ciliary basal bodies is not an exception to this rule in cell biology. Indeed, centriole positioning is a tightly regulated process that occurs during development, and it is critical for many organs to function properly, not just during development but also in the adulthood. In this book chapter, we overview our knowledge on centriole positioning in different and highly specialized animal cells like photoreceptor or ependymal cells. We will also discuss recent advances in the discovery of molecular pathways involved in this process, mostly related to the cytoskeleton and the cell polarity pathways. And finally, we present quantitative methods that have been used to assess centriole positioning in different cell types although mostly in epithelial cells.

Abstract
Purpose of Review Colonization of the gastrointestinal (GI) tract with Candida albicans (CA), the most common human fungal pathogen, is the first step towards the development of invasive infection. Yet the fungal virulence factors and host factors that modulate CA GI colonization are still poorly understood. In this review, we will review emerging evidence of the importance of select CA genetic determinants and CA's interaction with the host that contribute to its successful adaptation as a pathobiont in the human GI tract. Recent Findings Recent data reveal the importance of 1) CA genetic determinants; 2) host factors; and 3) environmental factors in modulating CA GI colonization in humans. Summary As evidence continues to grow supporting the notion that the GI tract and its resident microbiota are an integral part of the host immune system, it will be critical for studies to interrogate the interaction of CA with the host (including both the host innate and adaptive immune system as well as the endogenous gut microbiota) in order to dissect the mechanisms of CA pathogenesis and thus lay the foundation for novel therapeutic approaches to prevent and/or treat invasive fungal infections.

Abstract
Src-family kinases, expressed in a wide variety of cell types, are anchored to cellular membranes through posttranslational lipid modifications and involved in diverse cellular signalling. In epithelial cells, Src-family kinases are localized at the plasma membrane and participate in epithelial functions. Epithelial cell polarity is achieved through dynamic reorganization of protein trafficking. To examine the trafficking of Src-family kinases between polarized and non-polarized epithelial cells, we generated an MDCK cell line that can inducibly express a protein of interest in a polarized state at any time. We show here that Lyn, a member of Src-family kinases, mainly localizes to the plasma membrane in polarized MDCK cells and to endomembranes in non-polarized MDCK cells. Cell-cell interactions between adjacent MDCK cells recruit Lyn from endomembranes to the plasma membrane even without cell attachment to extracellular matrix scaffolds, and loss of cell-cell interactions by calcium deprivation relocates Lyn from the plasma membrane to endomembranes through Rab11-mediated recycling. Therefore, using our MDCK cells expressing inducible Lyn, we reveal that calcium-dependent cell-cell interactions play a critical role in plasma membrane localization of Lyn in polarized MDCK cells.

Abstract
Directional fluid flow is an essential process for embryo development as well as for organ and organism homeostasis. Here, we review the diverse structure of various organ-blood barriers, the driving forces, transporters, and polarity mechanisms that regulate fluid transport across them, focusing on kidney-, eye-, and brain-blood barriers. We end by discussing how cross talk between barrier epithelial and endothelial cells, perivascular cells, and basement membrane signaling contribute to generate and maintain organ-blood barriers.

Abstract
Cadherin-based adherens junctions are conserved structures that mediate epithelial cell-cell adhesion in invertebrates and vertebrates. Despite their pivotal function in epithelial integrity, adherens junctions show a remarkable plasticity that is a prerequisite for tissue architecture and morphogenesis. Epithelial cadherin (E-cadherin) is continuously turned over and undergoes cycles of endocytosis, sorting and recycling back to the plasma membrane. Mammalian cell culture and genetically tractable model systems such as Drosophila have revealed conserved, but also distinct, mechanisms in the regulation of E-cadherin membrane trafficking. Here, we discuss our current knowledge about molecules and mechanisms controlling endocytosis, sorting and recycling of E-cadherin during junctional remodeling.

Abstract
The SNARE-mediated vesicular transport pathway plays major roles in synaptic remodeling associated with formation of long-term memories, but the mechanisms that regulate this pathway during memory acquisition are not fully understood. Here we identify miRNAs that are up-regulated in the rodent hippocampus upon contextual fear-conditioning and identify the vesicular transport and synaptogenesis pathways as the major targets of the fear-induced miRNAs. We demonstrate that miR-153, a member of this group, inhibits the expression of key components of the vesicular transport machinery, and down-regulates Glutamate receptor A1 trafficking and neurotransmitter release. MiR-153 expression is specifically induced during LTP induction in hippocampal slices and its knockdown in the hippocampus of adult mice results in enhanced fear memory. Our results suggest that miR-153, and possibly other fear-induced miRNAs, act as components of a negative feedback loop that blocks neuronal hyperactivity at least partly through the inhibition of the vesicular transport pathway.

Autosomal recessive bestrophinopathy (ARB) is a retinopathy caused by mutations in the bestrophin-1 protein, which is thought to function as a Ca2+-gated Cl− channel in the basolateral surface of the retinal pigment epithelium (RPE). Using a stably transfected polarised epithelial cell model, we show that four ARB mutant bestrophin-1 proteins were mislocalised and subjected to proteasomal degradation. In contrast to the wild-type bestrophin-1, each of the four mutant proteins also failed to conduct Cl− ions in transiently transfected cells as determined by whole-cell patch clamp. We demonstrate that a combination of two clinically approved drugs, bortezomib and 4-phenylbutyrate (4PBA), successfully restored the expression and localisation of all four ARB mutant bestrophin-1 proteins. Importantly, the Cl− conductance function of each of the mutant bestrophin-1 proteins was fully restored to that of wild-type bestrophin-1 by treatment of cells with 4PBA alone. The functional rescue achieved with 4PBA is significant because it suggests that this drug, which is already approved for long-term use in infants and adults, might represent a promising therapy for the treatment of ARB and other bestrophinopathies resulting from missense mutations in BEST1. Summary: Chemical chaperone 4PBA fully restores Cl− conductance activity for mutant bestrophin-1 proteins associated with inherited retinal dystrophy, autosomal recessive bestrophinopathy.

Cellular mechanisms for cargo delivery and polarity maintenance at different polar domains in plant cells. Cell Discov 2016; 2:16018.

Abstract
The asymmetric localization of proteins in the plasma membrane domains of eukaryotic cells is a fundamental manifestation of cell polarity that is central to multicellular organization and developmental patterning. In plants, the mechanisms underlying the polar localization of cargo proteins are still largely unknown and appear to be fundamentally distinct from those operating in mammals. Here, we present a systematic, quantitative comparative analysis of the polar delivery and subcellular localization of proteins that characterize distinct polar plasma membrane domains in plant cells. The combination of microscopic analyses and computational modeling revealed a mechanistic framework common to diverse polar cargos and underlying the establishment and maintenance of apical, basal, and lateral polar domains in plant cells. This mechanism depends on the polar secretion, constitutive endocytic recycling, and restricted lateral diffusion of cargos within the plasma membrane. Moreover, our observations suggest that polar cargo distribution involves the individual protein potential to form clusters within the plasma membrane and interact with the extracellular matrix. Our observations provide insights into the shared cellular mechanisms of polar cargo delivery and polarity maintenance in plant cells.

Abstract
Many organs form by invaginating and rolling flat epithelial cell sheets into tubes. Invagination of the ventral midline of the neural plate forms the median hinge point (MHP), an event that elevates the neural folds and is essential for neural tube closure (NTC). MHP formation involves dynamic spatiotemporal modulations of cell shape, but how these are achieved is not understood. Here, we show that cell-cycle-dependent BMP and TGFβ antagonism elicits MHP formation by dynamically regulating interactions between apical (PAR complex) and basolateral (LGL) polarity proteins. TGFβ and BMP-activated receptor (r)-SMADs [phosphorylated SMAD2 or SMAD3 (pSMAD2,3), or phosphorylated SMAD1, SMAD5 or SMAD8 (pSMAD1,5,8)] undergo cell-cycle-dependent modulations and nucleo-cytosolic shuttling along the apicobasal axis of the neural plate. Non-canonical TGFβ and BMP activity in the cytosol determines whether pSMAD2,3 or pSMAD1,5,8 associates with the tight junction (PAR complex) or with LGL, and whether cell shape changes can occur at the MHP. Thus, the interactions of BMP and TGFβ with polarity proteins dynamically modulate MHP formation by regulating r-SMAD competition for tight junctions and r-SMAD sequestration by LGL.

Abstract
Retromer is an evolutionary conserved protein complex required for endosome-to-Golgi retrieval of receptors for lysosomal hydrolases. It is constituted by a heterotrimer encoded by the vacuolar protein sorting (VPS) gene products Vps26, Vps35, and Vps29, which selects cargo, and a dimer of phosphoinositide-binding sorting nexins, which deforms the membrane. Recent progress in the mechanism of retromer assembly and functioning has strengthened the link between sorting at the endosome and cytoskeleton dynamics. Retromer is implicated in endosomal sorting of many cargos and plays an essential role in plant and animal development. Although it is best known for endosome sorting to the trans-Golgi network, it also intervenes in recycling to the plasma membrane. In polarized cells, such as epithelial cells and neurons, retromer may also be utilized for transcytosis and long-range transport. Considerable evidence implicates retromer in establishment and maintenance of cell polarity. That includes sorting of the apical polarity module Crumbs; regulation of retromer function by the basolateral polarity module Scribble; and retromer-dependent recycling of various cargoes to a certain surface domain, thus controlling polarized location and cell homeostasis. Importantly, altered retromer function has been linked to neurodegeneration, such as in Alzheimer's or Parkinson's disease. This review will underline how alterations in retromer localization and function may affect polarized protein transport and polarity establishment, thereby causing developmental defects and disease.

Abstract
In vertebrate epithelia, p120-catenin (hereafter referred to as p120; also known as CTNND1) mediates E-cadherin stability and suppression of RhoA. Genetic ablation of p120 in various epithelial tissues typically causes striking alterations in tissue function and morphology. Although these effects could very well involve p120's activity towards Rho, ascertaining the impact of this relationship has been complicated by the fact that p120 is also required for cell-cell adhesion. Here, we have molecularly uncoupled p120's cadherin-stabilizing and RhoA-suppressing activites. Unexpectedly, removing p120's Rho-suppressing activity dramatically disrupted the integrity of the apical surface, irrespective of E-cadherin stability. The physical defect was tracked to excessive actomyosin contractility along the vertical axis of lateral membranes. Thus, we suggest that p120's distinct activities towards E-cadherin and Rho are molecularly and functionally coupled and this, in turn, enables the maintenance of cell shape in the larger context of an epithelial monolayer. Importantly, local suppression of contractility by cadherin-bound p120 appears to go beyond regulating cell shape, as loss of this activity also leads to major defects in epithelial lumenogenesis.

Abstract
One of the major challenges in biology is to explain how complex tissues and organs arise from the collective action of individual polarized cells. The best-studied model of this process is the cross talk between individual epithelial cells during their polarization to form the multicellular epithelial lumen during tissue morphogenesis. Multiple mechanisms of apical lumen formation have been proposed. Some epithelial lumens form from preexisting polarized epithelial structures. However, de novo lumen formation from nonpolarized cells has recently emerged as an important driver of epithelial tissue morphogenesis, especially during the formation of small epithelial tubule networks. In this review, we discuss the latest findings regarding the mechanisms and regulation of de novo lumen formation in vitro and in vivo.

Abstract
Epithelial cells are important for organ development and function. To this end, they polarize their plasma membrane into biochemically and physically distinct membrane domains. The apical membrane faces the luminal site of an organ and the basolateral domain is in contact with the basement membrane and neighboring cells. To establish and maintain this polarity it is important that newly synthesized and endocytic cargos are correctly sorted according to their final destinations at either membrane. Sorting takes place at one of 2 major sorting stations in the cells, the trans-Golgi network (TGN) and recycling endosomes (REs). Polarized sorting may involve epithelial cell-specific sorting adaptors like the AP-1B clathrin adaptor complex. AP-1B facilitates basolateral sorting from REs. This review will discuss various aspects of basolateral sorting in epithelial cells with a special emphasis on AP-1B.

Abstract
The mechanisms governing the spatial organization of endocytosis and exocytosis are ill defined. A quantitative imaging screen and high-density single-vesicle tracking are used to identify mutants that are defective in endocytic and exocytic vesicle organization. The screen identifies a role for the exocyst complex in connecting the two pathways. The coupling of endocytosis and exocytosis underlies fundamental biological processes ranging from fertilization to neuronal activity and cellular polarity. However, the mechanisms governing the spatial organization of endocytosis and exocytosis require clarification. Using a quantitative imaging-based screen in budding yeast, we identified 89 mutants displaying defects in the localization of either one or both pathways. High-resolution single-vesicle tracking revealed that the endocytic and exocytic mutants she4∆ and bud6∆ alter post-Golgi vesicle dynamics in opposite ways. The endocytic and exocytic pathways display strong interdependence during polarity establishment while being more independent during polarity maintenance. Systems analysis identified the exocyst complex as a key network hub, rich in genetic interactions with endocytic and exocytic components. Exocyst mutants displayed altered endocytic and post-Golgi vesicle dynamics and interspersed endocytic and exocytic domains compared with control cells. These data are consistent with an important role for the exocyst in coordinating endocytosis and exocytosis.

Abstract
Plants use robust mechanisms to optimize organ size to prevailing conditions. Modulating the transition from cell division to elongation dramatically affects morphology and size. Although it is well established that auxin, cytokinin and brassinosteroid mediate these transitions, recent works show that the cytoskeleton, which is normally thought to act downstream of these hormones, plays a key role in this regulatory process. In particular, the microtubule-associated protein CLASP has a dual role in meristem maintenance. CLASP modulates levels of the auxin efflux carrier PIN2 by tethering SNX1 endosomes to cortical microtubules, which in turn fine tunes auxin maxima in the root apical meristem. CLASP is also required for transfacial microtubule bundle formation at the sharp cell edges, a feature strongly associated with maintaining the capacity for further cell division.

Abstract
Phosphoinositides (PtdInsPs) are lipids that mediate a range of conserved cellular processes in eukaryotes. These include the transduction of ligand binding to cell surface receptors, vesicular transport and cytoskeletal function. The nature and functions of PtdInsPs were initially elucidated through biochemical experiments in mammalian cells. However, over the years, genetic and cell biological analysis in a range of model organisms including S. cerevisiae, D. melanogaster and C. elegans have contributed to an understanding of the involvement of PtdInsPs in these cellular events. The fruit fly Drosophila is an excellent genetic model for the analysis of cell and developmental biology as well as physiological processes, particularly analysis of the complex relationship between the cell types of a metazoan in mediating animal physiology. PtdInsP signalling pathways are underpinned by enzymes that synthesise and degrade these molecules and also by proteins that bind to these lipids in cells. In this review we provide an overview of the current understanding of PtdInsP signalling in Drosophila. We provide a comparative genomic analysis of the PtdInsP signalling toolkit between Drosophila and mammalian systems. We also review some areas of cell and developmental biology where analysis in Drosophila might provide insights into the role of this lipid-signalling pathway in metazoan biology. This article is part of a Special Issue entitled Phosphoinositides.

Abstract
We recently discovered that the major mammalian bile acid, taurocholate, accelerated polarity in primary rat hepatocytes. Taurocholate increased cellular cAMP and signals through an Epac-Rap1-MEK-LKB1-AMPK pathway for its polarity effect. This review discusses possible mechanisms for how taurocholate affects different cell polarity factors, particularly AMPK, and thereby regulates events that generate polarity. These include tight junction formation, apical trafficking, recycling endosome dynamics, and cytoskeleton rearrangement. We also discuss whether the effects of taurocholate are mediated by other LKB1 downstream kinases, such as Par1 and NUAK1.

Abstract
The retinal pigment epithelium (RPE) comprises a monolayer of polarized pigmented epithelial cells that is strategically interposed between the neural retina and the fenestrated choroid capillaries. The RPE performs a variety of vectorial transport functions (water, ions, metabolites, nutrients and waste products) that regulate the composition of the subretinal space and support the functions of photoreceptors (PRs) and other cells in the neural retina. To this end, RPE cells display a polarized distribution of channels, transporters and receptors in their plasma membrane (PM) that is remarkably different from that found in conventional extra-ocular epithelia, e.g. intestine, kidney, and gall bladder. This characteristic PM protein polarity of RPE cells depends on the interplay of sorting signals in the RPE PM proteins and sorting mechanisms and biosynthetic/recycling trafficking routes in the RPE cell. Although considerable progress has been made in our understanding of the RPE trafficking machinery, most available data have been obtained from immortalized RPE cell lines that only partially maintain the RPE phenotype and by extrapolation of data obtained in the prototype Madin-Darby Canine Kidney (MDCK) cell line. The increasing availability of RPE cell cultures that more closely resemble the RPE in vivo together with the advent of advanced live imaging microscopy techniques provides a platform and an opportunity to rapidly expand our understanding of how polarized protein trafficking contributes to RPE PM polarity.

Abstract
Cytochrome P450 (P450) enzymes are a superfamily of heme-containing enzymes involved in the metabolism of various endogenous compounds, including retinoids, glucocorticoids, and eicosanoids, that are postulated to participate in the maintenance and/or development of inflammatory and immune reactions in the intestinal mucosa. To investigate the role of P450 enzymes in intestinal inflammation and immunity, we took advantage of IE-Cpr-null mice, which are deficient in intestinal epithelium of NADPH-cytochrome P450 reductase (CPR), the obligate redox partner of all microsomal P450 enzymes. We report that IE-Cpr-null mice, following an acute toxin challenge, had higher levels of pro-inflammatory chemokines and increased tissue damage compared to wild-type mice. IE-Cpr-null mice had normal Peyer's patch numbers and elicited normal secretory IgA (SIgA) responses. However, SIgA baseline levels in IE-Cpr-null mice were consistently elevated over WT littermates. While neither retinoic acid nor glucocorticoid levels in serum and intestinal homogenates were altered in IE-Cpr-null mice, basal levels of arachidonic acid metabolites (11,12-DiHETE and 14,15-DiHETE) with known anti-inflammatory property were significantly lower compared to WT controls. Overall, these findings reveal immunological and metabolic changes resulting from a genetic deficiency in CPR expression in the intestine, and support a role for microsomal P450 enzymes in mucosal homeostasis and immunity.

Abstract
Analysis of influenza entry pathways in polarized epithelial cells. Clathrin-mediated endocytosis is critical for influenza entry in polarized MDCK cells. Influenza virus may use multiple endocytic pathways in non-polarized cells.
In non-polarized cell culture models, influenza virus has been shown to enter host cells via multiple endocytic pathways, including classical clathrin-mediated endocytic routes (CME), clathrin- and caveolae-independent routes and macropinocytosis. However, little is known about the entry route of influenza virus in differentiated epithelia, in vivo site of infection for influenza virus. Here, we show that in polarized Madin–Darby canine kidney type II (MDCK II) cells, influenza virus has a specific utilization of the clathrin-mediated endocytic pathway and requires Eps15 for host cell entry.

Abstract
Immune protection of the gut in early life depends on provision of maternal antibodies, particularly that of IgA. In precocial birds (in this study Gallus gallus domesticus) the egg provides the only source of maternal antibodies, IgA inclusive. The gut-life of IgA in hatchlings is expected to be brief due to antigen binding and intestinal washout, and maternal IgA is likely to be depleted prior to immune independence at 7-10 days of age in the domestic fowl. We followed the track of maternal IgA in mucosal surfaces of the fowl and describe for the first time a mechanism that might provide the means to extend the active period of maternal IgA in the gut. Maternal IgA was located in the gut, lung, and cloacal bursa in embryos and hatchlings prior to the appearance of endogenic IgA positive plasma cells (D3 in the bursa or D7 in the gut and lung); the source of IgA was most probably the yolk, as the plasma was devoid of IgA till D7 post-hatch. The levels of maternal IgA decreased with time, but were still easily determined at the onset of endogenous IgA production following maturation of the adaptive immune system. Persistence of maternal IgA in the gut was enabled by goblet cell up-take by a yet un-described mechanism, and its consequent release in a mucin-like layer on enterocyte apical surfaces.

Abstract
Although plant and animal cells use a similar core mechanism to deliver proteins
to the plasma membrane, their different lifestyle, body organization and
specific cell structures resulted in the acquisition of regulatory mechanisms
that vary in the two kingdoms. In particular, cell polarity regulators do not
seem to be conserved, because genes encoding key components are absent in plant
genomes. In plants, the broad knowledge on polarity derives from the study of
auxin transporters, the PIN-FORMED proteins, in the model plant
Arabidopsis thaliana. In animals, much information is
provided from the study of polarity in epithelial cells that exhibit basolateral
and luminal apical polarities, separated by tight junctions. In this review, we
summarize the similarities and differences of the polarization mechanisms
between plants and animals and survey the main genetic approaches that have been
used to characterize new genes involved in polarity establishment in plants,
including the frequently used forward and reverse genetics screens as well as a
novel chemical genetics approach that is expected to overcome the limitation of
classical genetics methods.

Abstract
In mammalian cells, endocytosis plays a pivotal role in regulating several basic cellular functions. Up to now, the dynamics and the organization of the endocytic pathways have been primarily investigated in reductionist model systems such as cell and organ cultures. Although these experimental models have been fully successful in unraveling the endocytic machinery at a molecular level, our understanding of the regulation and the role of endocytosis in vivo has been limited. Recently, advancements in intravital microscopy have made it possible to extend imaging in live animals to subcellular structures, thus revealing new aspects of the molecular machineries regulating membrane trafficking that were not previously appreciated in vitro. Here, we focus on the use of intravital microscopy to study endocytosis in vivo, and discuss how this approach will allow addressing two fundamental questions: (1) how endocytic processes are organized in mammalian tissues, and (2) how they contribute to organ physiopathology.

Tubular endocytosis drives remodelling of the apical surface during epithelial morphogenesis in Drosophila. Nat Commun 2014; 4:2244.

Abstract
During morphogenesis, remodelling of cell shape requires the expansion or contraction of plasma membrane domains. Here we identify a mechanism underlying the restructuring of the apical surface during epithelial morphogenesis in Drosophila. We show that the retraction of villous protrusions and subsequent apical plasma membrane flattening is an endocytosis-driven morphogenetic process. Quantitation of endogenously tagged GFP::Rab5 dynamics reveals a massive increase in apical endocytosis that correlates with changes in apical morphology. This increase is accompanied by the formation of tubular plasma membrane invaginations that serve as platforms for the de novo generation of Rab5-positive endosomes. We identify the Rab5-effector Rabankyrin-5 as a regulator of this pathway and demonstrate that blocking dynamin activity results in the complete inhibition of tubular endocytosis, in the disappearance of Rab5 endosomes, and in the inhibition of surface flattening. These data collectively demonstrate a requirement for endocytosis in morphogenetic remodelling during epithelial development. During epithelial morphogenesis in Drosophila, the villous apical cell surface is flattened. Fabrowski et al. show that this flattening depends on a dramatic increase in endocytosis associated with the formation of tubular invaginations, revealing a role for membrane trafficking in morphological remodelling.

Abstract
Ninety-five percent of infectious agents enter through exposed mucosal surfaces, such as the respiratory and gastrointestinal (GI) tracts. The human GI tract is colonized with trillions of commensal microbes, including numerous Candida spp. Some commensal microbes in the GI tract can cause serious human infections under specific circumstances, typically involving changes in the gut environment and/or host immune conditions. Therefore, utilizing animal models of fungal GI colonization and dissemination can lead to significant insights into the complex pathophysiology of transformation from a commensal organism to a pathogen and host-pathogen interactions. This paper will review the methodologic approaches used for modeling GI colonization versus dissemination, the insights learned from these models, and finally, possible future directions using these animal modeling systems.

Abstract
Targeting of glycosyl-phosphatidylinositol (GPI)-anchored proteins (GPI-APs) in polarized epithelial cells depends on their association with detergent-resistant membrane microdomains called rafts. In MDCK cells, GPI-APs associate with rafts in the trans-Golgi network and are directly delivered to the apical membrane. It has been shown that oligomerization is required for their stabilization in rafts and their apical targeting. In hepatocytes, GPI-APs are first delivered to the basolateral membrane and secondarily reach the apical membrane by transcytosis. We investigated whether oligomerization is required for raft association and apical sorting of GPI-APs in polarized HepG2 cells, and at which step of the pathway oligomerization occurs. Model proteins were wild-type GFP-GPI and a double cysteine GFP-GPI mutant, in which GFP dimerization was impaired. Unlike wild-type GFP-GPI, which was efficiently endocytosed and transcytosed to the apical surface, the double cysteine mutant was basolaterally internalized, but massively accumulated in early endosomes, and reached the bile canaliculi with delayed kinetics. The double cysteine mutant was less resistant to Triton X-100 extraction, and formed fewer high molecular weight complexes. We conclude from these results that, in hepatocytes, oligomerization plays a key role in targeting GPI-APs to the apical membrane, by increasing their affinity for rafts and allowing their transcytosis.
