We primarily focus on transport in the context of growth, but also highlight how these pathways are co-opted during plant immunity responses and at the plant-pathogen interface. © 2020.

Because no approved medication nor an accurate and noninvasive diagnosis is currently available for NAFLD, there is a clear need to better understand the link between obesity and NAFLD. Lipid accumulation during obesity is known to be associated with oxidative stress and inflammatory activation of liver macrophages (LMs). However, we show that although LMs do not become proinflammatory during obesity, they display signs of oxidative stress. In livers of both humans and mice, antioxidant nuclear factor erythroid 2-related factor 2 (NRF2) was down-regulated with obesity and insulin resistance, yielding an impaired response to lipid accumulation. At the molecular level, a microRNA-targeting NRF2 protein, miR-144, was elevated in the livers of obese insulin-resistant humans and mice, and specific silencing of miR-144 in murine and human LMs was sufficient to restore NRF2 protein expression and the antioxidant response. These results highlight the pathological role of LMs and their therapeutic potential to restore the impaired endogenous antioxidant response in obesity-associated NAFLD.

While postnatal enzyme replacement therapy (ERT) and hematopoietic stem cell transplantation have resulted in some phenotypic improvements, prenatal treatment might take advantage of a unique developmental window to penetrate the blood-brain barrier or induce tolerance to the missing protein, addressing two important shortcomings of postnatal therapy for multiple LSDs. Regorafenib We performed in utero ERT (IUERT) at E14.5 in MPS7 mice and improved survival of affected mice to birth. IUERT penetrated brain microglia, whereas postnatal administration did not, and neurological testing (after IUERT plus postnatal administration) showed decreased microglial inflammation and improved grip strength in treated mice. IUERT prevented antienzyme antibody development even after multiple repeated postnatal challenges. To test a more durable treatment strategy, we performed in utero hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (IUHCT) using congenic CX3C chemokine receptor 1-green fluorescent protein (CX3CR1-GFP) mice as donors, such that donor-derived microglia are identified by GFP expression. In wild-type recipients, hematopoietic chimerism resulted in microglial engraftment throughout the brain without irradiation or conditioning; the transcriptomes of donor and host microglia were similar. IUHCT in MPS7 mice enabled cross-correction of liver Kupffer cells and improved phenotype in multiple tissues. Engrafted microglia were seen in chimeric mice, with decreased inflammation near donor microglia. These results suggest that fetal therapy with IUERT and/or IUHCT could overcome the shortcomings of current treatment strategies to improve phenotype in MPS7 and other LSDs.

In addition, whether and how VitC modulates anticancer immune responses is mostly unknown. Here, we show that a fully competent immune system is required to maximize the antiproliferative effect of VitC in breast, colorectal, melanoma, and pancreatic murine tumors. High-dose VitC modulates infiltration of the tumor microenvironment by cells of the immune system and delays cancer growth in a T cell-dependent manner. VitC not only enhances the cytotoxic activity of adoptively transferred CD8 T cells but also cooperates with immune checkpoint therapy (ICT) in several cancer types. Combination of VitC and ICT can be curative in models of mismatch repair-deficient tumors with high mutational burden. This work provides a rationale for clinical trials combining ICT with high doses of VitC.

Here, we reveal that endothelial cells (ECs) acquire transformation into mesenchymal stem cell (MSC)-like cells in glioblastoma (GBM), driving tumor resistance to cytotoxic treatment. Transcriptome analysis by RNA sequencing (RNA-seq) revealed that ECs undergo mesenchymal transformation and stemness-like activation in GBM microenvironment. Furthermore, we identified a c-Met-mediated axis that induces β-catenin phosphorylation at Ser675 and Wnt signaling activation, inducing multidrug resistance-associated protein-1(MRP-1) expression and leading to EC stemness-like activation and chemoresistance. Last, genetic ablation of β-catenin in ECs overcome GBM tumor resistance to temozolomide (TMZ) chemotherapy in vivo. Combination of Wnt inhibition and TMZ chemotherapy eliminated tumor-associated ECs, inhibited GBM growth, and increased mouse survival. These findings identified a cell plasticity-based, microenvironment-dependent mechanism that controls tumor chemoresistance, and suggest that targeting Wnt/β-catenin-mediated EC transformation and stemness activation may overcome therapeutic resistance in GBM.
