The bZIP transcription factor BATF3/ZIP-10 suppresses innate immunity by attenuating PMK-1/p38 signaling

Muhammad Irfan Afridi et al.

Summary: In this study, researchers found that a transcription factor called BATF3 suppresses the innate immune response by inhibiting the p38/PMK-1 pathway. When this gene was lacking in worms, the worms exhibited enhanced resistance to PA14 infection, which could be restored by the expression of BATF3 driven by the worm's own promoter. This discovery enhances our understanding of the pathological mechanisms underlying relevant infectious diseases.

Glia of C. elegans coordinate a protective organismal heat shock response independent of the neuronal thermosensory circuit

Holly K. Gildea et al.

Summary: Aging organisms lose the ability to induce stress responses, making them vulnerable to protein toxicity and tissue damage. Neurons and glial cells can signal to induce protective stress responses in specific organelles. Understanding the role of glial cells in immune function and lifespan extension can provide valuable insights.

Viruses Hijack ERAD to Regulate Their Replication and Propagation

Linke Zou et al.

Summary: Endoplasmic reticulum-associated degradation (ERAD) is a highly conserved mechanism in eukaryotic cells, and it plays a crucial role in maintaining endoplasmic reticulum (ER) homeostasis. Viruses have evolved mechanisms to exploit ERAD for their replication and transmission, but the host's use of ERAD to respond to viral infection and how viruses evade host immune clearance through ERAD are still unclear.

The Role of Coronavirus RNA-Processing Enzymes in Innate Immune Evasion

Georgia Mandilara et al.

Summary: Viral RNA sensing triggers innate antiviral responses in humans, and coronaviruses use multiple enzymes to evade immune surveillance by acting on their genomic RNA and sub-genomic RNAs. Evolutionary studies on coronaviruses show that genome expansion in Nidoviruses was promoted by the emergence of Nsp14-ExoN activity, leading to the acquisition of Nsp15 and Nsp16 RNA-processing activities.

Poly(U)-specific endoribonuclease ENDOU promotes translation of human CHOP mRNA by releasing uORF element-mediated inhibition

Hung-Chieh Lee et al.

Summary: The study reveals that Endouc/ENDOU-1 can enhance CHOP mRNA translation by cleaving the huORF(chop) transcript to release its inhibitory effect on downstream ORF, leading to increased levels of CHOP protein.

The secreted endoribonuclease ENDU-2 from the soma protects germline immortality in C. elegans

Wenjing Qi et al.

Summary: The poly-U specific endoribonuclease ENDU-2 is secreted from soma and taken-up by germline in C. elegans, where it binds mature mRNA, represses somatic transcripts, and maintains germline immortality, contributing to gene expression regulation across tissue boundaries.

Integrated Analysis Reveals ENDOU as a Biomarker in Head and Neck Squamous Cell Carcinoma Progression

Chengzhi Xu et al.

Summary: This study identified ENDOU as a biomarker with prognostic significance in HNSCC progression. Overexpression of ENDOU inhibited proliferation and migration of FaDu and Cal-27 cells, indicating its tumor-suppressing role in HNSCC progression. GSEA analysis revealed ENDOU downstream pathways such as DNA replication, mismatch repair, cell cycle, and IL-17 signaling pathway.
