MSC-sEVs exacerbate senescence by transferring bisecting GlcNAcylated GPNMB by Yihan Ma, Chongfu Zhao, Jingjing Feng, Junjie Gou, Enci Kang, Feng Guan, Qiong Wu, Xiang Li

“…Results Our findings demonstrate a robust positive correlation between the expression of GPNMB in BMMSCs and sEVs and the induction of cellular senescence. Notably, we observed that elevated levels of GPNMB, particularly those bearing bisecting N-acetylglucosamine (GlcNAc) modifications, significantly enhance the senescent phenotype of BMMSCs. …”

Propionate metabolism in a human pathogenic fungus: proteomic and biochemical analyses by Luiz Paulo Araújo Santos, Leandro do Prado Assunção, Patrícia de Souza Lima, Gabriel Brum Tristão, Matthias Brock, Clayton Luiz Borges, Mirelle Garcia Silva-Bailão, Célia Maria de Almeida Soares, Alexandre Melo Bailão

“…Proteomic analyses further indicate that P. lutzii yeast cells degrades lipids and amino acids to support the carbon requirement for propionate metabolism. The induction of a putative propionate kinase suggests that fungal cells use propionyl-phosphate as an intermediate in the production of toxic propionyl-CoA. …”

Nicotinic α7 receptors on cholinergic neurons in the striatum mediate cocaine-reinforcement, but not food reward by Michael Fritz, Michael Fritz, Michael Fritz, Priscila Batista Rosa, Daniel Wilhelms, Daniel Wilhelms, Maarit Jaarola, Johan Ruud, David Engblom, Anna M. Klawonn, Anna M. Klawonn, Anna M. Klawonn, Anna M. Klawonn

“…Mice with conditional deletion of α7 nAChRs in ChAT-neurons (α7 nAChR-ChATCre) exhibited decreased cocaine place preference and intact place preference for food, while α7 nAChR-D1RCre mice had no changes in reward learning to neither food nor cocaine. Cocaine induction of striatal immediate early gene expression of cFos, FosB, Arc and EGR2 was blocked in α7 nAChR-ChATCre mice, demonstrating the importance of α7 nAChRs on cholinergic neurons for striatal neuronal activity changes. …”
