The Journal of Immunology TNFR-Associated Factor-3 Is Associated With BAFF-R and Negatively Regulates BAFF-R-Mediated NF-␬B Activation and IL-10 Production Liang-Guo Xu* and Hong-Bing Shu2*† TALL-1 is a member of the TNF family that is critically involved in B cell survival, maturation, and progression of lupus-like autoimmune diseases. TALL-1 has three receptors, including BCMA, TACI, and BAFF-R, which are mostly expressed by B lymphocytes. Gene knockout studies have indicated that BAFF-R is the major stimulatory receptor for TALL-1 signaling and is required for normal B cell development. The intracellular signaling mechanisms of BAFF-R are not known. In this report, we attempted to identify BAFF-R-associated downstream proteins by yeast two-hybrid screening. This effort identified TNFR-asso- ciated factor (TRAF)3 as a protein specifically interacting with BAFF-R in yeast two-hybrid assays. Coimmunoprecipitation Downloaded from experiments indicated that BAFF-R interacts with TRAF3 in B lymphoma cells and this interaction is stimulated by TALL-1 treatment. Domain mapping experiments indicated that both a 6-aa membrane proximal region and the C-terminal 35 aa of BAFF-R are required for its interaction with TRAF3. Moreover, overexpression of TRAF3 inhibits BAFF-R-mediated NF-␬B activation and IL-10 production. Taken together, our findings suggest that TRAF3 is a negative regulator of BAFF-R-mediated NF-␬B activation and IL-10 production.

Since its outbreak in 2020, the pandemic caused by a novel coronavirus SARS-Cov-2 has already resulted in millions of lives lost and inflicted untold human misery and suffering to people globally. The Centre for Non-Traditional Security (NTS) Studies of the S. Rajaratnam School of International Studies (RSIS), Nanyang Technological University, is one of the leading centres in Asia that highlights the critical linkages between non-traditional security challenges, like climate change and health security, to national and global security. As we have seen, the COVID-19 pandemic is more than a public health emergency of international concern. Its severe impacts cut across economic security, food security, environmental security and personal security, among others. As the international community continues to grapple with the consequential impact of COVID-19, it is sobering to note that other pandemics are expected to emerge. Thus, the need to advance the global agenda of pandemic preparedness and response cannot be overstated given the evolving nature of emerging infectious diseases.

GIDE contains a C-terminal RING finger domain, which is mostly conserved with those of the IAP family members and is required for GIDE’s E3 ligase activity. Overexpression of GIDE induces apoptosis via a pathway involving activation of cas- pases, since caspase inhibitors, XIAP and an inactive mutant of caspase-9 block GIDE-induced apoptosis. GIDE also activates JNK, and blockage of JNK activation inhibits GIDE-induced release of cytochrome c and Smac as well as apoptosis, suggesting that JNK activation precedes release of cytochrome c and Smac and is required for GIDE- induced apoptosis. These pro-apoptotic properties of GIDE require its E3 ligase activity. When somewhat over- or underexpressed, GIDE slows or accelerates cell growth, respectively. These pro-apoptotic or growth inhibition effects of GIDE may account for its absence in tumor cells.

The findings were published in the recent issue of Physics Review Letters. The new formula is designed to calculate the electric polarization of materials with large space structures, such as the magnetic structure of multiferroics. Researchers also found that the electric polarization defined by the formula is of a topological uncertainty. The uncertainty is closely associated with another effect driven by inhomogeneity. The new formula provides a new approach for calculating ferroelectrics, and an exhaustive link between microscopic models and the macroscopic polarization. The study was funded by Chinese National Natural Science Foundation.
