Progranulin (PGRN) is an intracellular and secreted pro- protein that is proteolytically cleaved into individual granulin peptides, which are increasingly thought to contribute to FTLD-TDP-Pgrn disease pathophysiology. Intracellular PGRN is processed into granulins in the endo-lysosomal compartments.

Herein, we present single-cell tran- scriptome profiling of metastatic lung adenocarcinoma, the most prevalent histological lung cancer type diagnosed at stage IV in over 40% of all cases. From 208,506 cells populating the normal tissues or early to metastatic stage cancer in 44 patients, we identify a cancer cell subtype deviating from the normal differentiation trajectory and dominating the metastatic stage. In all stages, the stromal and immune cell dynamics reveal ontological and functional changes that create a pro-tumoral and immunosuppressive microenvironment. Normal resident myeloid cell populations are gradually replaced with monocyte-derived macrophages and dendritic cells, along with T-cell exhaustion. This extensive single-cell analysis enhances our understanding of molecular and cellular dynamics in metastatic lung cancer and reveals potential diagnostic and therapeutic targets in cancer-microenvironment interactions. 1 Samsung Genome Institute, Samsung Medical Center, Seoul 06351, Korea.

Abstract The multi-step process of the emigration of cells from the blood stream through the vascular endothelium into the tissue has been termed extravasation. The extravasation of leukocytes is fairly well characterized down to the molecular level, and has been reviewed in several aspects. Comparatively little is known about the extravasation of tumor cells, which is part of the hematogenic metastasis formation. Although the steps of the process are basically the same in leukocytes and tumor cells, i.e. rolling, adhesion, transmigration (diapedesis), the molecules that are involved are different. A further important difference is that leukocyte interaction with the endothelium changes the endothelial integrity only temporarily, whereas tumor cell interaction leads to an irreversible damage of the endothelial architecture. Moreover, tumor cells utilize leukocytes for their extravasation as linkers to the endothelium.

  • Lysosomal Membrane Glycoproteins Bind Cholesterol and Contribute to Lysosomal Cholesterol Export
    1 Lysosomal membrane glycoproteins bind cholesterol and 2 contribute to lysosomal cholesterol export 3 4 Jian Li and Suzanne R. Pfeffer* 5 Department of Biochemistry, Stanford University School of Medicine 6 Stanford, CA USA 94305-5307 7 8 *Correspondence to: [email protected]. 9 10 Abstract: LAMP1 and LAMP2 proteins are highly abundant, ubiquitous, mammalian proteins 11 that line the lysosome limiting membrane, and protect it from lysosomal hydrolase action. 12 LAMP2 deficiency causes Danon’s disease, an X-linked hypertrophic cardiomyopathy. LAMP2 13 is needed for chaperone-mediated autophagy, and its expression improves tissue function in 14 models of aging. We show here that LAMP1 and LAMP2 bind cholesterol in a manner that 15 buries the cholesterol 3β-hydroxyl group; they also bind tightly to NPC1 and NPC2 proteins that 16 export cholesterol from lysosomes. Quantitation of cellular LAMP2 and NPC1 protein levels 17 suggest that LAMP proteins represent a significant cholesterol binding site at the lysosome 18 limiting membrane, and may signal cholesterol availability. Functional rescue experiments show 19 that the ability of LAMP2 to facilitate cholesterol export from lysosomes relies on its ability to 20 bind cholesterol directly. 21 22 23 Introduction 24 Eukaryotic lysosomes are acidic, membrane-bound organelles that contain proteases, lipases and 25 nucleases and degrade cellular components to regenerate catabolic precursors for cellular use (1- 26 3). Lysosomes are crucial for the degradation of substrates from the cytoplasm, as well as 27 membrane bound compartments derived from the secretory, endocytic, autophagic and 28 phagocytic pathways. The limiting membrane of lysosomes is lined with so-called lysosomal 29 membrane glycoproteins (LAMPs) that are comprised of a short cytoplasmic domain, a single 30 transmembrane span, and a highly, N- and O-glycosylated lumenal domain (4-6).
