Description
Mechanisms of immune regulation may control proliferation of aberrant plasma cells (PCs) in patients with the asymptomatic monoclonal gammopathy of undetermined significance (MGUS) preventing progression to active multiple myeloma (MM). We investigated the role of CD85j (LILRB1), an inhibitory immune checkpoint for B cell function, in MM pathogenesis.

Description
A total of 332 genes were identified which modified their expression in a dose-dependent manner upon exposure to doxycycline. The more represented cellular pathways included all mitochondrial genes, the endoplasmic reticulum stress response, integrins and extracellular matrix components, and growth factors. Overall design: Examination of 4 different doses of doxycycline in ten human pterygium samples.

Description
Cdc34 is an essential E2 ubiquitin conjugating enzyme found in nearly all eukaryotes. It contains a highly conserved motif composed of S73/S97/12 amino acid insert near the active site cysteine. This motif is unique to Cdc34/Ubc7 type E2s while other E2s contain K/D/no insert at these positions. To better understand the function of this motif we mutated Cdc34 S73/S97/insert to be K/D/no insert and observed changes in transcript levels in mid-log phase yeast cells. ABSTRACT [Cdc34 is a ubiquitin conjugating enzyme necessary for the ubiquitylation of substrates by the SCF family of ubiquitin ligases. Previous work has shown that the Cdc34 protein is phosphorylated in vivo on serine residues. Cdc34 contains two serines within its catalytic domain, S73 and S97, that together with a 12 amino acid acidic loop, constitute a highly conserved motif (serine, serine, insert) among all members of the Cdc34 family of E2 enzymes. Using phosphospecific antibodies, we show that the essential serine S97 is indeed phosphorylated in vivo. Furthermore, this phosphorylation event is regulated by treatment with pheromone in yeast. Consistently, expression of a Cdc34 mutant lacking this motif (serine, serine, insert) leads to misregulation of the SCF substrates, Sic1, Far1, Cln1 and Cln2 and suppresses the cell cycle arrest brought about by an activated mating pathway. We further explored the function of this motif by microarray analysis and show that the transcripts of nearly the entire Sic1 cluster of co-transcribed genes is altered in a strain the expresses Cdc34 lacking this motif. Our data reveals that this highly conserved motif in Cdc34 and its phosphorylation are important for modulating SCF substrate abundance both transcriptionally and post-transcriptionally.]

Description
Adaptive resistance to targeted therapy such as BRAF inhibitors represents in melanoma a major drawback to this otherwise powerful treatment. Some of the underlying molecular mechanisms have recently been described: hyperactivation of the BRAF-MAPK pathway, of the AKT pathway, of the TGF/EGFR/PDGFRB pathway, or the low MITF/AXL ratio. Nevertheless, the phenomenon of early resistance is still not clearly understood. In this report, we show that knockdown of neural crest-associated gene ID3 increases the melanoma sensitivity to vemurafenib short-term treatment. In addition, we observe an ID3-mediated regulation of cell migration and of the expression of resistance-associated genes such as SOX10 and MITF. In sum, these data suggest ID3 as a new key actor of melanoma adaptive resistance to vemurafenib and as a potential drug target. Molecular mechanisms that are responsible for the development of human skin epithelial cells are not completely understood so far. As a consequence, the efficiency to establish a pure skin epithelial cell population from human induced pluripotent stem cells (hiPSC) remains poor. Using an approach including RNA interference and high-throughput imaging of early epithelial cells, we could identify candidate kinases which are involved in skin epithelial differentiation. Among them, we found HIPK4 to be an important inhibitor of this process. Indeed, its silencing increased the amount of generated skin epithelial precursors, increased the amount of generated keratinocytes and improved growth and differentiation of organotypic cultures, allowing for the formation of a denser basal layer and stratification with the expression of several keratins. Our data bring substantial input in the regulation of human skin epithelial differentiation and for improving differentiation protocols from pluripotent stem cells.

Description
Enteroendocrine L-cells release hormones that control metabolism and appetite and are targets under investigation for the treatment of diabetes and obesity. Understanding L-cell diversity and expression profiles is critical for identifying target receptors that will translate into altered hormone secretion. We performed single cell RNA sequencing of mouse L-cells from the upper small intestine to distinguish cellular populations, revealing that L-cells form 3 major clusters: a group with typical characteristics of classical L-cells, including high expression of Gcg and Pyy; a cell type overlapping with Gip-expressing K-cells; and a unique cluster expressing Tph1 and Pzp that was predominantly located in duodenal villi and co-produced 5HT. Expression of G-protein coupled receptors differed between clusters, suggesting the cell types are differentially regulated, and would be differentially targetable. Our findings support the emerging concept that many enteroendocrine cell populations are highly overlapping, with individual cells producing a range of peptides previously assigned to distinct cell types. Overall design: Single cell RNA sequencing of mouse duodenal L-cells cells
