Abstract
Both bone mesenchymal stem cells (BMSCs) and their exosomes suggest promising therapeutic tools for bone regeneration. Lithium has been reported to regulate BMSC function and engineer exosomes to improve bone regeneration in patients with glucocorticoid-induced osteonecrosis of the femoral head. However, the mechanisms by which lithium promotes osteogenesis have not been elucidated. Here, we demonstrated that lithium promotes the osteogenesis of BMSCs via lithium-induced increases in the secretion of exosomal Wnt10a to activate Wnt/β-catenin signaling, whose secretion is correlated with enhanced MARK2 activation to increase the trafficking of the Rab11a and Rab11FIP1 complexes together with exosomal Wnt10a to the plasma membrane. Then, we compared the proosteogenic effects of exosomes derived from lithium-treated or untreated BMSCs (Li-Exo or Con-Exo) both in vitro and in vivo. We found that, compared with Con-Exo, Li-Exo had superior abilities to promote the uptake and osteogenic differentiation of BMSCs. To optimize the in vivo application of these hydrogels, we fabricated Li-Exo-functionalized gelatin methacrylate (GelMA) hydrogels, which are more effective at promoting osteogenesis and bone repair than Con-Exo. Collectively, these findings demonstrate the mechanism by which lithium promotes osteogenesis and the great promise of lithium for engineering BMSCs and their exosomes for bone regeneration, warranting further exploration in clinical practice.

Abstract
The upsurge of bacterial resistance to conventional antibiotics turned a well-recognized public health threat. The need of developing new biomaterials of effective practical use in order to tackle bacterial resistance became urgent. In this study, a submicrometric bioparticle of known antibacterial activity was produced in powder form with suitable texture and appealing characteristics for effective oral administration. Through complex coacervating a natural-source antimicrobial polypeptide with chitosan-N-arginine and alginate, the bioactive polypeptide was physically incorporated to the bioparticle whose structure positively responds to the pH variations found in gastrointestinal tract. The powder formulation presented high palatability that was evaluated using fish as in vivo animal model. A thorough survey of the fish intestinal tissues, following a systematic oral administration, revealed high penetration potential of the biomaterial through epithelial cells and deeper intestine layers. Despite, no cytotoxic effect was observed in analyzing the tissues through different histology methods. The absence of intestinal damage was corroborated by immune histochemistry, being the integrity of epithelial motor myosin Vb and related traffic proteins preserved. Hematology further endorsed absence of toxicity in blood cells whose morphology was evaluated in detail. The study evidenced the applicability potential of a new biomaterial of appealing and safe oral administration of antibacterial polypeptide.

Abstract
Modern fluorescent microscopy imaging is still limited by the optical aberrations and the photon budget available in the specimen. A direct consequence is the necessity to develop flexible and "off-road" algorithms in order to recover structural details and improve spatial resolution, which is critical when restraining the illumination to low levels in order to limit photo-damages. Here, we report SPITFIR(e) a flexible method designed to accurately and quickly restore 2D-3D fluorescence microscopy images and videos (4D images). We designed a generic sparse-promoting regularizer to subtract undesirable out-of-focus background and we developed a primal-dual algorithm for fast optimization. SPITFIR(e) is a "swiss-knife" method for practitioners as it adapts to any microscopy techniques, to various sources of signal degradation (noise, blur), to variable image contents, as well as to low signal-to-noise ratios. Our method outperforms existing state-of-the-art algorithms, and is more flexible than supervised deep-learning methods requiring ground truth datasets. The performance, the flexibility, and the ability to push the spatiotemporal resolution limit of sub-diffracted fluorescence microscopy techniques are demonstrated on experimental datasets acquired with various microscopy techniques from 3D spinning-disk confocal up to lattice light sheet microscopy.

Abstract
All cells in the changing tumor microenvironment (TME) need a class of checkpoints to regulate the balance among exocytosis, endocytosis, recycling and degradation. The vesicular trafficking and secretion pathways regulated by the small Rab GTPases and their effectors convey cell growth and migration signals and function as meditators of intercellular communication and molecular transfer. Recent advances suggest that Rab proteins govern conventional and unconventional vesicular secretion pathways by trafficking widely diverse cargoes and substrates in remodeling TME. The mechanisms underlying the regulation of conventional and unconventional vesicular secretion pathways, their action modes and impacts on the cancer and stromal cells have been the focus of much attention for the past two decades. In this review, we discuss the current understanding of vesicular secretion pathways in TME. We begin with an overview of the structure, regulation, substrate recognition and subcellular localization of vesicular secretion pathways. We then systematically discuss how the three fundamental vesicular secretion processes respond to extracellular cues in TME. These processes are the conventional protein secretion via the endoplasmic reticulum-Golgi apparatus route and two types of unconventional protein secretion via extracellular vesicles and secretory autophagy. The latest advances and future directions in vesicular secretion-involved interplays between tumor cells, stromal cell and host immunity are also described.

Abstract
Background We previously reported that the long non-coding RNA (lncRNA) CASC11 promotes colorectal cancer (CRC) progression as an oncogene by binding to HNRNPK. However, it remains unknown whether CASC11 can act as a competitive endogenous RNA (ceRNA) in CRC. In this study, we focused on the role of CASC11 as a ceRNA in CRC by regulating miR-646 and miR-381-3p targeting of RAB11FIP2. Methods We identified the target microRNAs (miRNAs) of CASC11 and the target genes of miR-646 and miR-381-3p using bioinformatic methods. A dual-luciferase reporter assay was performed to validate the target relationship. Quantitative real-time PCR (qRT-PCR), western blotting (WB), and immunohistochemistry (IHC) were used to measure the RNA and protein expression levels. Rescue experiments in vitro and in vivo were performed to investigate the influence of the CASC11/miR-646 and miR-381-3p/RAB11FIP2 axis on CRC progression. Results We found that CASC11 binds to miR-646 and miR-381-3p in the cytoplasm of CRC cells. Moreover, miR-646 and miR-381-3p inhibitors reversed the suppressive effect of CASC11 silencing on CRC growth and metastasis in vitro and in vivo. We further confirmed that RAB11FIP2 is a mutual target of miR-646 and miR-381-3p. The expression levels of CASC11 and RAB11FIP2 in CRC were positively correlated and reciprocally regulated. Further study showed that CASC11 played an important role in regulating PI3K/AKT pathway by miR-646 and miR-381-3p/RAB11FIP2 axis. Conclusion Our study showed that CASC11 promotes the progression of CRC as a ceRNA by sponging miR-646 and miR-381-3p. Thus, CASC11 is a potential biomarker and a therapeutic target of CRC.

Abstract
Mycobacterium avium (Mav) causes chronic infections in immunocompromised patients that require long-term antibiotic treatment. We have previously shown that Mav takes residence in host Mϕs and establishes a compartment (MavC) in which it is hidden from host defenses. Failure to establish the MavC traps Mav in Lamp1+ phagolysosomes where growth is prevented, and inflammatory signaling activated through TLRs 7/8. To elucidate how antibiotic treatment affects mycobacterial trafficking and host defenses, we infected human primary Mϕs with Mav for 4 days prior to treatment with a macrolide, aminoglycoside, and ethambutol. We show that Mav is killed and the MavC fuses with Lamp1+ lysosomes following antibiotic treatment. However, this does not result in nuclear translocation of NF-κB or production of inflammatory cytokines, suggesting different Lamp1+ lysosomal compartments can form that differ in their innate signaling capabilities. Thus, we show that upon antibiotic treatment of a chronic infection, Mav is quietly disposed of by Mϕs.

Abstract
Langerhans cells (LC) are the resident antigen presenting cells of the mucosal epithelium and play an essential role in initiating immune responses. LC are the only cells in the body to contain Birbeck granules (BG), which are unique cytoplasmic organelles comprised of c-type lectin langerin. Studies of BG have historically focused on morphological characterizations, but BG have also been implicated in viral antigen processing which suggests that they can serve a function in antiviral immunity. This study focused on investigating proteins that could be involved in BG formation to further characterize their structure using transmission electron microscopy (TEM). Here, we report a critical role for the protein annexin A2 (anxA2) in the proper formation of BG structures. When anxA2 expression is downregulated, langerin expression decreases, cytoplasmic BG are nearly ablated, and the presence of malformed BG-like structures increases. Furthermore, in the absence of anxA2, we found langerin was no longer localized to BG or BG-like structures. Taken together, these results indicate an essential role for anxA2 in facilitating the proper formation of BG.

Abstract
Colocalization aims at characterizing spatial associations between two fluorescently tagged biomolecules by quantifying the co-occurrence and correlation between the two channels acquired in fluorescence microscopy. Colocalization is presented either as the degree of overlap between the two channels or the overlays of the red and green images, with areas of yellow indicating colocalization of the molecules. This problem remains an open issue in diffraction-limited microscopy and raises new challenges with the emergence of superresolution imaging, a microscopic technique awarded by the 2014 Nobel prize in chemistry. We propose GcoPS, for Geo-coPositioning System, an original method that exploits the random sets structure of the tagged molecules to provide an explicit testing procedure. Our simulation study shows that GcoPS unequivocally outperforms the best competitive methods in adverse situations (noise, irregularly shaped fluorescent patterns, and different optical resolutions). GcoPS is also much faster, a decisive advantage to face the huge amount of data in superresolution imaging. We demonstrate the performances of GcoPS on two biological real data sets, obtained by conventional diffraction-limited microscopy technique and by superresolution technique, respectively.

Abstract
![]()
The skin is an attractive
site for vaccination and harbors a dense
network of Langerhans cells that are the prime target for antigen
delivery approaches in the epidermis. While specific targeting of
Langerhans cells has been shown to elicit the necessary T-cell response
using antibody-based delivery approaches, the targeted administration
of particulate antigens in the form of nanoparticle-based vaccine
formulations has been challenging. We previously reported on a specific
targeting ligand for human Langerin, a C-type lectin expressed on
Langerhans cells. This ligand is presented on liposomes and renders
them highly specific for the uptake by Langerhans cells. Here we show
a detailed study of the uptake and intracellular routing of the particles
in model cell lines by confocal and live cell imaging as well as flow
cytometric assays. Liposomes are internalized into early endosomal
compartments and accumulate in late endosomes and lysosomes, shortly
followed by a release of the cargo. Furthermore, we show the encapsulation
of protein antigens and their delivery to cell lines and primary human
Langerhans cells. These data further support the applicability of
the targeted liposomal particles for protein vaccine applications.

The integral function of the endocytic recycling compartment is regulated by RFFL-mediated ubiquitylation of Rab11 effectors. J Cell Sci 2019; 132:jcs.228007.

Abstract
Endocytic trafficking is regulated by ubiquitylation (also known as ubiquitination) of cargoes and endocytic machineries. The role of ubiquitylation in lysosomal delivery has been well documented, but its role in the recycling pathway is largely unknown. Here, we report that the ubiquitin (Ub) ligase RFFL regulates ubiquitylation of endocytic recycling regulators. An RFFL dominant-negative (DN) mutant induced clustering of endocytic recycling compartments (ERCs) and delayed endocytic cargo recycling without affecting lysosomal traffic. A BioID RFFL interactome analysis revealed that RFFL interacts with the Rab11 effectors EHD1, MICALL1 and class I Rab11-FIPs. The RFFL DN mutant strongly captured these Rab11 effectors and inhibited their ubiquitylation. The prolonged interaction of RFFL with Rab11 effectors was sufficient to induce the clustered ERC phenotype and to delay cargo recycling. RFFL directly ubiquitylates these Rab11 effectors in vitro, but RFFL knockout (KO) only reduced the ubiquitylation of Rab11-FIP1. RFFL KO had a minimal effect on the ubiquitylation of EHD1, MICALL1, and Rab11-FIP2, and failed to delay transferrin recycling. These results suggest that multiple Ub ligases including RFFL regulate the ubiquitylation of Rab11 effectors, determining the integral function of the ERC.

Abstract
Regulated trafficking of internalised integrins and growth factor receptors enables polarisation of morphology and motility and enables lumen formation in multicellular structures. Recycling vesicles marked with Rab11 direct internalised cargo back to the plasma membrane to affect biological processes such as polarised trafficking and cancer cell invasion. A recent study by Ji and colleagues, provides insight into how the trafficking protein Rab11FIP2 links with the actin-based motor myo5b and the small GTPase Rab11 to regulate vesicle tethering and transport along actin filaments [1]. The authors used biochemical methods to demonstrate that Rab11a binds directly to the tail of myo5b and that Rab11FIP2 also forms direct interactions with both Rab11a and myo5b tails. These proteins essentially compete for binding to similar regions and thus can regulate the association and activity of each other. Ji and colleagues further demonstrate that Rab11a activates myo5b by binding to its globular tail and relieving a head-tail autoinhibition. Due to differing affinities between Rab11 and myo5b or Rab11FIP2, they propose that Rab11FIP2 mediates the association of myo5b with cargo vesicles, while Rab11a regulates the motor activity of myo5b. The present study thus elucidates how myo5b is regulated by its interactions with Rab11a and Rab11FIP2 and proposes a model for coordination of recycling vesicle tethering and motor activity. The present study has implications for how cells control polarity and motility in health and disease and suggests how Rab11FIP proteins might control motor protein activity and engagement for transport.

Abstract
The Golgi apparatus is a central sorting station in the cell. It receives newly synthesized molecules from the endoplasmic reticulum and directs them to different subcellular destinations, such as the plasma membrane or the endocytic pathway. Importantly, in the last few years, it has emerged that the maintenance of Golgi structure is connected to the proper regulation of membrane trafficking. Rab proteins are small GTPases that are considered to be the master regulators of the intracellular membrane trafficking. Several of the over 60 human Rabs are involved in the regulation of transport pathways at the Golgi as well as in the maintenance of its architecture. This chapter will summarize the different roles of Rab GTPases at the Golgi, both as regulators of membrane transport, scaffold, and tethering proteins and in preserving the structure and function of this organelle.

Abstract
Mounting evidence has shown that the Rab11-FIP2 has critical roles in cancer cell growth. However, the clinical significance of Rab11-FIP2 in Non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) remains to be fully elucidated. In this study, we investigated the expression of Rab11-FIP2 using immunohistochemistry in 150 patients with NSCLC. We found that its expression level in NSCLC was much lower than that in the corresponding adjacent normal tissues. The DNA methylation data revealed that Rab11-FIP2 were significantly hypermethylated in NSCLC. The methylation level in the gene body was negatively correlated with the expression level of Rab11-FIP2 in NSCLC. Furthermore, enforced expression of Rab11-FIP2 dramatically reduced cancer cell proliferation and tumorigenesis, indicating a tumor suppressor role of PGK1 in NSCLC progression. Mechanistic investigations showed that Rab11-FIP2 interacted with the glycolytic kinase PGK1 and promoted its ubiquitination in NSCLC cells, leading to inactivation of the oncogenic AKT/mTOR signaling pathway. Overall, our data indicate that reduced expression of Rab11-FIP2 by DNA hypermethylation plays an important role in NSCLC tumor growth.

Abstract
Analysis of the spatial distribution of endomembrane trafficking is fundamental to understand the mechanisms controlling cellular dynamics, cell homeostasy, and cell interaction with its external environment in normal and pathological situations. We present a semi-parametric framework to quantitatively analyze and visualize the spatio-temporal distribution of intracellular events from different conditions. From the spatial coordinates of intracellular features such as segmented subcellular structures or vesicle trajectories, QuantEv automatically estimates weighted densities that are easy to interpret and performs a comprehensive statistical analysis from distribution distances. We apply this approach to study the spatio-temporal distribution of moving Rab6 fluorescently labeled membranes with respect to their direction of movement in crossbow- and disk-shaped cells. We also investigate the position of the generating hub of Rab11-positive membranes and the effect of actin disruption on Rab11 trafficking in coordination with cell shape. Proteins are the workhorses of the body, performing a range of roles that are essential for life. Often, this requires these molecules to move from one location to another inside a cell. Scientists are interested in following an individual protein in a living cell ‘in real time’, as this helps understand what this protein does. Scientists can track the whereabouts of a protein by ‘tagging’ it with a fluorescent molecule that emits light which can be picked up by a powerful microscope. This process is repeated many times on different samples. Finally, researchers have to analyze all the resulting images, and conduct statistical analysis to draw robust conclusions about the overall trajectories of the proteins. This process often relies on experts assessing the images, and it is therefore time-consuming and not easily scalable or applied to other experiments. To help with this, Pécot et al. have developed QuantEV, a free algorithm that can analyze proteins’ paths within a cell, and then return statistical graphs and 3D visualizations. The program also gives access to the statistical procedure that was used, which means that different experiments can be compared. Pécot et al. used the method to follow the Rab6 protein in cells of different shapes, and found that the conformation of the cell influences where Rab6 is located. For example, in crossbow-shaped cells, Rab6 is found more often toward the three tips of the crossbow, while its distribution is uniform in cells that look like disks. Another experiment examined where the protein Rab11 is normally placed, and how this changes when the cell’s skeleton is artificially disrupted. Both studies help to gain an insight into the behavior of the cellular structures in which Rab6 and Rab11 are embedded. Following proteins in the cell is an increasingly popular method, and there is therefore a growing amount of data to process. QuantEV should make it easier for biologists to analyze their results, which could help them to have a better grasp on how cells work in various circumstances.

Abstract
Papillary thyroid cancer (PTC) is the most common type of thyroid malignancy, and it is often observed to overexpress epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR). Previous research has indicated that EH domain-containing 1 (EHD1) is associated with EGFR-mediated endocytotic recycling in multiple tumor types. The objective of the present study was to determine the protein expression levels and clinical significance of EHD1, EGFR, caveolin-1 (CAV-1) and RAB11 family interacting protein 3 (RAB11FIP3) in PTC. PTC specimens were analyzed for EHD1, EGFR, CAV-1 and RAB11FIP3 expression via immunohistochemistry and western blotting. The associations between protein expression and clinicopathological features were assessed. EHD1, EGFR, CAV-1 and RAB11FIP3 expression levels were increased in human PTC. Additionally, the expression level of EHD1 protein was significantly associated with tumor size, lymph node metastasis and EGFR expression (P<0.05). CAV-1 was associated with tumor size and EGFR expression (P<0.05). EGFR was only associated with lymph node metastasis (P=0.027) and RAB11FIP3 was not associated with any clinicopathological characteristics. The correlations between EHD1 and EGFR (r=0.564, P<0.05), CAV-1 (r=0.865, P<0.01) and RAB11FIP3 (r=0.504, P<0.05) were statistically significant. Overall, EHD1, CAV-1 and RAB11FIP3, which are key proteins in endocytotic recycling, promote PTC tumorigenesis through the regulation of the transport of EGFR.

Abstract
The intracellular movement and positioning of organelles and vesicles is mediated by the cytoskeleton and molecular motors. Small GTPases like Rab and Arf proteins are main regulators of intracellular transport by connecting membranes to cytoskeleton motors or adaptors. However, it is becoming clear that interactions between these small GTPases and the cytoskeleton are important not only for the regulation of membrane transport. In this review, we will cover our current understanding of the mechanisms underlying the connection between Rab and Arf GTPases and the cytoskeleton, with special emphasis on the double role of these interactions, not only in membrane trafficking but also in membrane and cytoskeleton remodeling. Furthermore, we will highlight the most recent findings about the fine control mechanisms of crosstalk between different members of Rab, Arf, and Rho families of small GTPases in the regulation of cytoskeleton organization.

Abstract
Yurchenko et al. discover that the Ig-like receptor molecule SLAMF1 enhances production of type I interferon induced by Gram-negative bacteria through modulation of MyD88-independent TLR4 signaling. This makes SLAMF1 a potential target for controlling inflammatory responses against Gram-negative bacteria. Signaling lymphocytic activation molecule family 1 (SLAMF1) is an Ig-like receptor and a costimulatory molecule that initiates signal transduction networks in a variety of immune cells. In this study, we report that SLAMF1 is required for Toll-like receptor 4 (TLR4)-mediated induction of interferon β (IFNβ) and for killing of Gram-negative bacteria by human macrophages. We found that SLAMF1 controls trafficking of the Toll receptor–associated molecule (TRAM) from the endocytic recycling compartment (ERC) to Escherichia coli phagosomes. In resting macrophages, SLAMF1 is localized to ERC, but upon addition of E. coli, it is trafficked together with TRAM from ERC to E. coli phagosomes in a Rab11-dependent manner. We found that endogenous SLAMF1 protein interacted with TRAM and defined key interaction domains as amino acids 68 to 95 of TRAM as well as 15 C-terminal amino acids of SLAMF1. Interestingly, the SLAMF1–TRAM interaction was observed for human but not mouse proteins. Overall, our observations suggest that SLAMF1 is a new target for modulation of TLR4–TRAM–TRIF inflammatory signaling in human cells.

PLoS Pathog 2017; 13:e1006551.

Abstract
Pathogenic mycobacteria reside in macrophages where they avoid lysosomal targeting and degradation through poorly understood mechanisms proposed to involve arrest of phagosomal maturation at an early endosomal stage. A clear understanding of how this relates to host defenses elicited from various intracellular compartments is also missing and can only be studied using techniques allowing single cell and subcellular analyses. Using confocal imaging of human primary macrophages infected with Mycobacterium avium (Mav) we show evidence that Mav phagosomes are not arrested at an early endosomal stage, but mature to a (LAMP1+/LAMP2+/CD63+) late endosomal/phagolysosomal stage where inflammatory signaling and Mav growth restriction is initiated through a mechanism involving Toll-like receptors (TLR) 7 and 8, the adaptor MyD88 and transcription factors NF-κB and IRF-1. Furthermore, a fraction of the mycobacteria re-establish in a less hostile compartment (LAMP1-/LAMP2-/CD63-) where they not only evade destruction, but also recognition by TLRs, growth restriction and inflammatory host responses that could be detrimental for intracellular survival and establishment of chronic infections. Mycobacterium avium is increasingly reported as a causative agent of non-tuberculous disease in immunocompromised patients and in individuals with underlying disease or using immunosuppressant drugs, with prevalence often higher than the more pathogenic M. tuberculosis in developed countries. Both M. avium and M. tuberculosis cause persistent infections by surviving inside host macrophages. Here, we identify from which compartment M. avium evoke inflammatory signaling in human primary macrophages, and the pattern-recognition receptors involved. In essence, we present three key findings: 1) M. avium phagosomes are not arrested at an early endosomal stage, but rather mature normally into phagolysosomes from where a fraction of the bacteria escape and re-establish in a new compartment. 2) In addition to avoiding degradation in phagolysosomes, by escaping M. avium also evade inflammatory signaling. 3) M. avium unable to escape is degraded in phagolysosomes and recognized by Toll-like receptors 7 and 8. Our results can contribute to new understanding of intracellular infections, and thus have vital clinical implications for development of novel anti-microbial strategies and host-targeted therapy to mycobacterial and other infectious diseases.

Acquisition of Rab11 and Rab11-Fip2-A novel strategy for Chlamydia pneumoniae early survival. PLoS Pathog 2017; 13:e1006556. [PMID: 28787457 PMCID: PMC5560749 DOI: 10.1371/journal.ppat.1006556] [Citation(s) in RCA: 13] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.9] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 04/03/2017] [Revised: 08/17/2017] [Accepted: 07/27/2017] [Indexed: 11/30/2022] Open
Abstract
The initial steps in chlamydial infection involve adhesion and internalization into host cells and, most importantly, modification of the nascent inclusion to establish the intracellular niche. Here, we show that Chlamydia pneumoniae enters host cells via EGFR-dependent endocytosis into an early endosome with a phosphatidylinositol 3-phosphate (PI3P) membrane identity. Immediately after entry, the early chlamydial inclusion acquires early endosomal Rab GTPases including Rab4, Rab5, Rab7, as well as the two recycling-specific Rabs Rab11 and Rab14. While Rab5, Rab11 and Rab14 are retained in the vesicular membrane, Rab4 and Rab7 soon disappear. Loss of Rab7 enables the C. pneumoniae inclusion to escape delivery to, and degradation in lysosomes. Loss of Rab4 and retention of Rab11/ Rab14 designates the inclusion as a slowly recycling endosome—that is protected from degradation. Furthermore, we show that the Rab11/ Rab14 adaptor protein Rab11-Fip2 (Fip2) is recruited to the nascent inclusion upon internalization and retained in the membrane throughout infection. siRNA knockdown of Fip2 demonstrated that the protein is essential for internalization and infection, and expression of various deletion variants revealed that Fip2 regulates the intracellular positioning of the inclusion. Additionally, we show that binding to Rab11 and Fip2 recruits the unconventional actin motor protein myosin Vb to the early inclusion and that together they regulate the relocation of the nascent inclusion from the cell periphery to the perinuclear region, its final destination. Here, we characterize for the first time inclusion identity and inclusion-associated proteins to delineate how C. pneumoniae establishes the intracellular niche essential for its survival. Here, we show for the first time how Chlamydia pneumoniae an obligate intracellular pathogen establishes its intracellular niche. After EGFR-dependent endocytosis into host cells, the nascent chlamydial inclusion acquires early endosomal membrane identity and the Rab GTPases Rab4, Rab5 and Rab7, as well as the recycling-specific Rab11 and Rab14. We show that Rab5, Rab11 and Rab14 are retained in the vesicular membrane, while Rab4 and Rab7 subsequently disappear. Thus, C. pneumoniae escapes lysosomal degradation by hiding in a recycling endosome vesicle. Furthermore, we show that the Rab11/Rab14 adaptor protein Rab11-Fip2 (Fip2), together with the unconventional actin motor protein myosin Vb, is recruited to the nascent inclusion. Both are essential for internalization and infection, as they regulate the intracellular positioning of the inclusion, which is essential for intracellular transport from the cell periphery to the perinuclear region. Here, we characterize for the first time inclusion identity and inclusion-associated proteins to understand how C. pneumoniae establishes the intracellular niche, which is essential for its survival.

Abstract
Spir actin nucleators and myosin V motor proteins were recently discovered to coexist in a protein complex. The direct interaction allows the coordinated activation of actin motor proteins and actin filament track generation at vesicle membranes. By now the cooperation of myosin V (MyoV) motors and Spir actin nucleation function has only been shown in the exocytic transport of Rab11 vesicles in metaphase mouse oocytes. Next to Rab11, myosin V motors however interact with a variety of Rab GTPases including Rab3, Rab8 and Rab10. As a common theme most of the MyoV interacting Rab GTPases function at different steps along the exocytic transport routes. We here summarize the different transport functions of class V myosins and provide as proof of principle data showing a colocalization of Spir actin nucleators and MyoVa at Rab8a vesicles. This suggests that besides Rab11/MyoV transport also the Rab8/MyoV and possibly other MyoV transport processes recruit Spir actin filament nucleation function.

Abstract
Rab11-family interacting proteins (Rab11-FIPs) belong to an evolutionarily conserved protein family and act as effector molecules for the Rab11 family of small GTPases. Recent evidence suggests that Rab11-FIPs have important roles in tumor progression and metastasis. However, the contribution of Rab11-FIPs to colorectal carcinoma (CRC) remains elusive. Our study focuses on elucidating the role of Rab11-FIP2 in the migration and invasion of colorectal cancer cells. We firstly found upregulation of Rab11-FIP2 in CRC tissues compared with peritumor tissues by oncomine data-mining analysis, western blot analysis and immunohistochemistry (IHC) analysis, respectively. Then, we demonstrated that knockdown of Rab11-FIP2 via siRNAs transfection resulted in a decrease in migration and invasion of CRC cells, while overexpression of Rab11-FIP2 via lentiviral infection increased migration and invasion of CRC cells. In addition, we verified that Rab11-FIP2 promoted migration and invasion of CRC cells through upregulating MMP7 expression. Finally, using several kinase inhibitors, our results showed that Rab11-FIP2 regulated MMP7 expression through activating PI3K/Akt signaling. Our data suggested a potential role of Rab11-FIP2 in tumor progression and provided novel insights into the mechanism of how Rab11-FIP2 positively regulated cell migration and invasion in CRC cells.

Abstract
Accurately detecting subcellular particles in fluorescence microscopy is of primary interest for further quantitative analysis such as counting, tracking, or classification. Our primary goal is to segment vesicles likely to share nearly the same size in fluorescence microscopy images. Our method termed adaptive thresholding of Laplacian of Gaussian (LoG) images with autoselected scale (ATLAS) automatically selects the optimal scale corresponding to the most frequent spot size in the image. Four criteria are proposed and compared to determine the optimal scale in a scale-space framework. Then, the segmentation stage amounts to thresholding the LoG of the intensity image. In contrast to other methods, the threshold is locally adapted given a probability of false alarm (PFA) specified by the user for the whole set of images to be processed. The local threshold is automatically derived from the PFA value and local image statistics estimated in a window whose size is not a critical parameter. We also propose a new data set for benchmarking, consisting of six collections of one hundred images each, which exploits backgrounds extracted from real microscopy images. We have carried out an extensive comparative evaluation on several data sets with ground-truth, which demonstrates that ATLAS outperforms existing methods. ATLAS does not need any fine parameter tuning and requires very low computation time. Convincing results are also reported on real total internal reflection fluorescence microscopy images.

Abstract
Background Human Langerhans cells (LCs) reside in foreskin and vaginal mucosa and are the first immune cells to interact with HIV-1 during sexual transmission. LCs capture HIV-1 through the C-type lectin receptor langerin, which routes the virus into Birbeck granules (BGs), thereby preventing HIV-1 infection. BGs are langerin-positive organelles exclusively present in LCs, however, their origin and function are unknown. Results Here, we not only show that langerin and caveolin-1 co-localize at the cell membrane and in vesicles but also that BGs are langerin/caveolin-1-positive vesicles are linked to the lysosomal degradation pathway in LCs. Moreover, inhibition of caveolar endocytosis in primary LCs abrogated HIV-1 sequestering into langerin+ caveolar structures. Notably, both inhibition of caveolar uptake and silencing of caveolar structure protein caveolin-1 resulted in increased HIV-1 integration and subsequent infection. In contrast, inhibition of clathrin-mediated endocytosis did not affect HIV-1 integration, even though HIV-1 uptake was decreased, suggesting that clathrin-mediated endocytosis is not involved in HIV-1 restriction in LCs. Conclusions Thus, our data strongly indicate that BGs belong to the caveolar endocytosis pathway and that caveolin-1 mediated HIV-1 uptake is an intrinsic restriction mechanism present in human LCs that prevents HIV-1 infection. Harnessing this particular internalization pathway has the potential to facilitate strategies to combat HIV-1 transmission.

Abstract
Total internal reflection fluorescence microscopy (TIRFM) is the method of choice to visualize a variety of cellular processes in particular events localized near the plasma membrane of live adherent cells. This imaging technique not relying on particular fluorescent probes provides a high sectioning capability. It is, however, restricted to a single plane. We present here a method based on a versatile design enabling fast multiwavelength azimuthal averaging and incidence angles scanning to computationally reconstruct 3D images sequences. We achieve unprecedented 50-nm axial resolution over a range of 800 nm above the coverslip. We apply this imaging modality to obtain structural and dynamical information about 3D actin architectures. We also temporally decipher distinct Rab11a-dependent exocytosis events in 3D at a rate of seven stacks per second.

Abstract
Precise vectorial transport of rhodopsin is essential for rod photoreceptor health and function. Mutations that truncate or extend the C terminus of rhodopsin disrupt this transport, and lead to retinal degeneration and blindness in human patients and in mouse models. Here we show that such mutations disrupt the binding of rhodopsin to the small GTPase rab11a. The rhodopsin-rab11a interaction is a direct binding interaction that does not depend on the nucleotide binding state of rab11a. Expression of EGFP-rab11a fusion proteins in Xenopus laevis photoreceptors revealed that the nucleotide binding status of rab11a affects its subcellular localization, with GTP-locked mutants concentrated in the inner segment and GDP-locked mutants concentrated in the outer segment. shRNA-mediated knockdown of rab11a in rods led to shortened outer segments and retinal degeneration. Together, our results show the critical importance of direct rhodopsin-rab11a interactions for the formation and maintenance of vertebrate photoreceptors.

Abstract
The epidermis is a stratified epithelium, which forms a barrier to maintain the internal milieu in metazoans. Being the outermost tissue, growth of the epidermis has to be strictly coordinated with the growth of the embryo. The key parameters that determine tissue growth are cell number and cell size. So far, it has remained unclear how the size of epidermal cells is maintained and whether it contributes towards epidermal homeostasis. We have used genetic analysis in combination with cellular imaging to show that zebrafish goosepimples/myosin Vb regulates plasma membrane homeostasis and is involved in maintenance of cell size in the periderm, the outermost epidermal layer. The decrease in peridermal cell size in Myosin Vb deficient embryos is compensated by an increase in cell number whereas decrease in cell number results in the expansion of peridermal cells, which requires myosin Vb (myoVb) function. Inhibition of cell proliferation as well as cell size expansion results in increased lethality in larval stages suggesting that this two-way compensatory mechanism is essential for growing larvae. Our analyses unravel the importance of Myosin Vb dependent cell size regulation in epidermal homeostasis and demonstrate that the epidermis has the ability to maintain a dynamic balance between cell size and cell number.

Abstract
Small GTPase Rabs are required for membrane protein sorting/delivery to precise membrane domains. Rab13 regulates tight junction assembly and polarized membrane transport in epithelial cells. Using yeast two-hybrid screen, we identified MICAL-like1 (MICAL-L1), a protein that interacts with GTP-bound Rab13 and shares a similar domain organization with MICAL protein family. MICAL-L1 has a calponin homology, Lin11, Isl-1 & Mec-3 (LIM), proline-rich, and coiled-coil domains. It is associated with late and recycling endosomes. Time-lapse video microscopy shows that GFP-Rab7 and cherry-MICAL-L1 are present within vesicles that move rapidly in the cytoplasm. Depletion of MICAL-L1 by short hairpin RNA does not alter the distribution of tight junction proteins, but affects the trafficking of epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR). Overexpression of MICAL-L1 leads to the accumulation of EGFR in late endosomal compartments. In contrast, knocking down MICAL-L1 results in the distribution of internalized EGFR in vesicles spread throughout the cytoplasm and promotes its degradation. Our data show that MICAL-L1 inhibits EGFR degradation, suggesting that MICAL-L1 is involved in sorting/targeting the receptor to the recycling pathway. They provide novel insights into MICAL-L1/Rab protein complex that can regulate EGFR trafficking/signaling.

Abstract
Once adherens junctions (AJs) are formed between polarized epithelial cells they must be maintained because AJs are constantly remodeled in dynamic epithelia. AJ maintenance involves endocytosis and subsequent recycling of E-cadherin to a precise location along the basolateral membrane. In the Drosophila pupal eye epithelium, Rho1 GTPase regulates AJ remodeling through Drosophila E-cadherin (DE-cadherin) endocytosis by limiting Cdc42/Par6/aPKC complex activity. We demonstrate that Rho1 also influences AJ remodeling by regulating the formation of DE-cadherin-containing, Rab11-positive recycling endosomes in Drosophila postmitotic pupal eye epithelia. This effect of Rho1 is mediated through Rok-dependent, but not MLCK-dependent, stimulation of myosin II activity yet independent of its effects upon actin remodeling. Both Rho1 and pMLC localize on endosomal vesicles, suggesting that Rho1 might regulate the formation of recycling endosomes through localized myosin II activation. This work identifies spatially distinct functions for Rho1 in the regulation of DE-cadherin-containing vesicular trafficking during AJ remodeling in live epithelia.

Abstract
Emerging data suggest that in polarized epithelial cells newly synthesized apical and basolateral plasma membrane proteins traffic through different endosomal compartments en route to the respective cell surface. However, direct evidence for trans-endosomal pathways of plasma membrane proteins is still missing and the mechanisms involved are poorly understood. Here, we imaged the entire biosynthetic route of rhodopsin-GFP, an apical marker in epithelial cells, synchronized through recombinant conditional aggregation domains, in live Madin-Darby canine kidney cells using spinning disk confocal microscopy. Our experiments directly demonstrate that rhodopsin-GFP traffics through apical recycling endosomes (AREs) that bear the small GTPase Rab11a before arriving at the apical membrane. Expression of dominant-negative Rab11a drastically reduced apical delivery of rhodopsin-GFP and caused its missorting to the basolateral membrane. Surprisingly, functional inhibition of dynamin-2 trapped rhodopsin-GFP at AREs and caused aberrant accumulation of coated vesicles on AREs, suggesting a previously unrecognized role for dynamin-2 in the scission of apical carrier vesicles from AREs. A second set of experiments, using a unique method to carry out total internal reflection fluorescence microscopy (TIRFM) from the apical side, allowed us to visualize the fusion of rhodopsin-GFP carrier vesicles, which occurred randomly all over the apical plasma membrane. Furthermore, two-color TIRFM showed that Rab11a-mCherry was present in rhodopsin-GFP carrier vesicles and was rapidly released upon fusion onset. Our results provide direct evidence for a role of AREs as a post-Golgi sorting hub in the biosynthetic route of polarized epithelia, with Rab11a regulating cargo sorting at AREs and carrier vesicle docking at the apical membrane.

Abstract
A tripartite association of Rab11a with both Rab11-FIP2 and MYO5B regulates recycling endosome trafficking. We sought to define the intermolecular interactions required between Rab11-FIP2 and MYO5B. Using a random mutagenesis strategy, we identified point mutations at S229P or G233E in Rab11-FIP2 that caused loss of interaction with MYO5B in yeast two-hybrid assays as well as loss of interaction of Rab11-FIP2(129-356) with MYO5B tail when expressed in HeLa cells. Single mutations or the double S229P/G233E mutation failed to alter the association of full-length Rab11-FIP2 with MYO5B tail in HeLa cells. While EGFP-Rab11-FIP2 wild type colocalized with endogenous MYO5B staining in MDCK cells, EGFP-Rab11-FIP2(S229P/G233E) showed a significant decrease in localization with endogenous MYO5B. Analysis of Rab11a-containing vesicle movement in live HeLa cells demonstrated that when the MYO5B/Rab11-FIP2 association is perturbed by mutation or by Rab11-FIP2 knockdown, vesicle movement is increased in both speed and track length, consistent with an impairment of MYO5B tethering at the cytoskeleton. These results support a critical role for the interaction of MYO5B with Rab11-FIP2 in stabilizing the functional complex with Rab11a, which regulates dynamic movements of membrane recycling vesicles.

Abstract
Microvillus inclusion disease (MVID) is a congenital enteropathy characterized by loss of apical microvilli and formation of cytoplasmic inclusions lined by microvilli in enterocytes. MVID is caused by mutations in the MYO5B gene, coding for the myosin Vb motor protein. Although myosin Vb is implicated in the organization of intracellular transport and cell surface polarity in epithelial cells, its precise role in the pathogenesis of MVID is unknown. We performed correlative immunohistochemistry analyses of sections from duodenal biopsies of a MVID patient, compound heterozygous for two novel MYO5B mutations, predicting loss of function of myosin Vb in duodenal enterocytes together with a stable MYO5B CaCo2 RNAi cell system. Our findings show that myosin Vb-deficient enterocytes display disruption of cell polarity as reflected by mislocalized apical and basolateral transporter proteins, altered distribution of certain endosomal/lysosomal constituents including Rab GTPases. Together, this severe disturbance of epithelial cell function could shed light on the pathology and symptoms of MVID.

Abstract
Microvillus inclusion disease (MVID) is one of the most severe congenital intestinal disorders and is characterized by neonatal secretory diarrhea and the inability to absorb nutrients from the intestinal lumen. MVID is associated with patient-, family-, and ancestry-unique mutations in the MYO5B gene, encoding the actin-based motor protein myosin Vb. Here, we review the MYO5B gene and all currently known MYO5B mutations and for the first time methodologically categorize these with regard to functional protein domains and recurrence in MYO7A associated with Usher syndrome and other myosins. We also review animal models for MVID and the latest data on functional studies related to the myosin Vb protein. To congregate existing and future information on MVID geno-/phenotypes and facilitate its quick and easy sharing among clinicians and researchers, we have constructed an online MOLGENIS-based international patient registry (www.MVID-central.org). This easily accessible database currently contains detailed information of 137 MVID patients together with reported clinical/phenotypic details and 41 unique MYO5B mutations, of which several unpublished. The future expansion and prospective nature of this registry is expected to improve disease diagnosis, prognosis, and genetic counseling.

Abstract
RGS4, a heterotrimeric G-protein inhibitor, localizes to plasma membrane (PM) and endosomal compartments. Here, we examined Rab-mediated control of RGS4 internalization and recycling. Wild type and constitutively active Rab5 decreased RGS4 PM levels while increasing its endosomal targeting. Rab5, however, did not appreciably affect the PM localization or function of the M1 muscarinic receptor (M1R)/Gq signaling cascade. RGS4-containing endosomes co-localized with subsets of Rab5-, transferrin receptor-, and Lamp1/Lysotracker-marked compartments suggesting RGS4 traffics through PM recycling or acidified endosome pathways. Rab7 activity promoted TGN association, whereas Rab7(dominant negative) trapped RGS4 in late endosomes. Furthermore, RGS4 was found to co-localize with an endosomal pool marked by Rab11, the protein that mediates recycling/sorting of proteins to the PM. The Cys-12 residue in RGS4 appeared important for its Rab11-mediated trafficking to the PM. Rab11(dominant negative) decreased RGS4 PM levels and increased the number of RGS4-containing endosomes. Inhibition of Rab11 activity decreased RGS4 function as an inhibitor of M1R activity without affecting localization and function of the M1R/Gq signaling complex. Thus, both Rab5 activation and Rab11 inhibition decreased RGS4 function in a manner that is independent from their effects on the localization and function of the M1R/Gq signaling complex. This is the first study to implicate Rab GTPases in the intracellular trafficking of an RGS protein. Thus, Rab GTPases may be novel molecular targets for the selective regulation of M1R-mediated signaling via their specific effects on RGS4 trafficking and function.

Abstract
Dendritic arborization of neurons is regulated by brain-derived neurotrophic factor (BDNF) together with its receptor, TrkB. Endocytosis is required for dendritic branching and regulates TrkB signaling, but how postendocytic trafficking determines the neuronal response to BDNF is not well understood. The monomeric GTPase Rab11 regulates the dynamics of recycling endosomes and local delivery of receptors to specific dendritic compartments. We investigated whether Rab11-dependent trafficking of TrkB in dendrites regulates BDNF-induced dendritic branching in rat hippocampal neurons. We report that TrkB in dendrites is a cargo for Rab11 endosomes and that both Rab11 and its effector, MyoVb, are required for BDNF/TrkB-induced dendritic branching. In addition, BDNF induces the accumulation of Rab11-positive endosomes and GTP-bound Rab11 in dendrites and the expression of a constitutively active mutant of Rab11 is sufficient to increase dendritic branching by increasing TrkB localization in dendrites and enhancing sensitization to endogenous BDNF. We propose that Rab11-dependent dendritic recycling provides a mechanism to retain TrkB in dendrites and to increase local signaling to regulate arborization.

Abstract
Membrane traffic pathways play an essential role in cells, providing a mechanism for organelles of the endomembrane system to communicate and exchange material between each other. A significant number of infections and diseases are associated with trafficking pathways, and as such gaining a greater understanding of their regulation is essential. Fluorescence-based imaging techniques are widely used to probe the trafficking machinery within cells, and many of these methods have the potential to be applied in a quantitative manner. In the present mini-review, we highlight several recent examples of how image intensity, kinetic measurements, co-localization and texture feature analysis have been used to study the function of one key family of membrane traffic regulators, the Rab GTPases. We give specific emphasis to the importance of the quantitative nature of these recent studies and comment on their potential applicability to a high-throughput format.

Abstract
Langerin is required for the biogenesis of Birbeck granules (BGs), the characteristic organelles of Langerhans cells. We previously used a Langerin-YFP fusion protein having a C-terminal luminal YFP tag to dynamically decipher the molecular and cellular processes which accompany the traffic of Langerin. In order to elucidate the interactions of Langerin with its trafficking effectors and their structural impact on the biogenesis of BGs, we generated a YFP-Langerin chimera with an N-terminal, cytosolic YFP tag. This latter fusion protein induced the formation of YFP-positive large puncta. Live cell imaging coupled to a fluorescence recovery after photobleaching approach showed that this coalescence of proteins in newly formed compartments was static. In contrast, the YFP-positive structures present in the pericentriolar region of cells expressing Langerin-YFP chimera, displayed fluorescent recovery characteristics compatible with active membrane exchanges. Using correlative light-electron microscopy we showed that the coalescent structures represented highly organized stacks of membranes with a pentalaminar architecture typical of BGs. Continuities between these organelles and the rough endoplasmic reticulum allowed us to identify the stacks of membranes as a form of “Organized Smooth Endoplasmic Reticulum” (OSER), with distinct molecular and physiological properties. The involvement of homotypic interactions between cytoplasmic YFP molecules was demonstrated using an A206K variant of YFP, which restored most of the Langerin traffic and BG characteristics observed in Langerhans cells. Mutation of the carbohydrate recognition domain also blocked the formation of OSER. Hence, a “double-lock” mechanism governs the behavior of YFP-Langerin, where asymmetric homodimerization of the YFP tag and homotypic interactions between the lectin domains of Langerin molecules participate in its retention and the subsequent formation of BG-like OSER. These observations confirm that BG-like structures appear wherever Langerin accumulates and confirm that membrane trafficking effectors dictate their physiology and, illustrate the importance of molecular interactions in the architecture of intracellular membranes.

Abstract
The earliest steps of left-right (LR) patterning in Xenopus embryos are driven by biased intracellular transport that ensures a consistently asymmetric localization of maternal ion channels and pumps in the first 2-4 blastomeres. The subsequent differential net efflux of ions by these transporters generates a bioelectrical asymmetry; this LR voltage gradient redistributes small signaling molecules along the LR axis that later regulate transcription of the normally left-sided Nodal. This system thus amplifies single cell chirality into a true left-right asymmetry across multi-cellular fields. Studies using molecular-genetic gain- and loss-of-function reagents have characterized many of the steps involved in this early pathway in Xenopus. Yet one key question remains: how is the chiral cytoskeletal architecture interpreted to localize ion transporters to the left or right side? Because Rab GTPases regulate nearly all aspects of membrane trafficking, we hypothesized that one or more Rab proteins were responsible for the directed, asymmetric shuttling of maternal ion channel or pump proteins. After performing a screen using dominant negative and wildtype (overexpressing) mRNAs for four different Rabs, we found that alterations in Rab11 expression randomize both asymmetric gene expression and organ situs. We also demonstrated that the asymmetric localization of two ion transporter subunits requires Rab11 function, and that Rab11 is closely associated with at least one of these subunits. Yet, importantly, we found that endogenous Rab11 mRNA and protein are expressed symmetrically in the early embryo. We conclude that Rab11-mediated transport is responsible for the movement of cargo within early blastomeres, and that Rab11 expression is required throughout the early embryo for proper LR patterning.

Abstract
The Rab11-family interacting proteins (Rab11-FIPs) facilitate Rab11-dependent vesicle recycling. We hypothesized that Rab11-FIPs define discrete subdomains and carry out temporally distinct roles within the recycling system. We used live-cell deconvolution microscopy of HeLa cells expressing chimeric fluorescent Rab11-FIPs to examine Rab11-FIP localization, transferrin passage through Rab11-FIP-containing compartments, and overlap among Rab11-FIPs within the recycling system. FIP1A, FIP2, and FIP5 occupy widely distributed mobile tubules and vesicles, whereas FIP1B, FIP1C, and FIP3 localize to perinuclear tubules. Internalized transferrin entered Rab11-FIP-containing compartments within 5 min, reaching maximum colocalization with FIP1B and FIP2 early in the time course, whereas localization with FIP1A, FIP1C, FIP3, and FIP5 was delayed until 10 min or later. Whereas direct interactions with FIP1A were only observed for FIP1B and FIP1C, FIP1A also associated with membranes containing FIP3. Live-cell dual-expression studies of Rab11-FIPs revealed the tubular dynamics of Rab11-FIP-containing compartments and demonstrated a series of selective associations among Rab11-FIPs in real time. These findings suggest that Rab11-FIP1 proteins participate in spatially and temporally distinct steps of the recycling process along a complex and dynamic tubular network in which Rab11-FIPs occupy discrete domains.

Abstract
Rabs comprise the largest member of the Ras superfamily of small GTPases with over 60 proteins in mammals and 11 proteins in yeast. Like all small GTPases, Rabs oscillate between an inactive GDP-bound conformation and an active GTP-bound state that is tethered to lipid membranes via a C-terminal prenylation site on conserved cysteine residues. In their active state, Rabs regulate various aspects of membrane trafficking, including vesicle formation, transport, docking, and fusion. The critical element of biological activity is the recruitment of cytosolic effector proteins to specific endomembranes by active Rabs. The importance of Rabs in cellular processes is apparent from their links to genetic disorders, immunodeficiency, cancer, and pathogen invasion. During the last decade, numerous structures of complexes have shed light on the molecular basis for Rab/effector specificity and their topological organization on subcellular membranes. Here, I review the known structures of Rab/effector complexes and their modes of oligomerization. This is followed by a brief discussion on the thermodynamics of effector recruitment, which has not been documented sufficiently in previous reviews. A summary of diseases associated with Rab/effector trafficking pathways concludes this chapter.
