Targeting of exocytosis enables cellular morphogenesis, motility and polarized transport, yet relatively little is known about the targeting mechanisms in cellular systems. Here we show that the SEC/MUNC protein KEULE is a dynamic marker for individual secretory events and employ it as a live cell probe, that together with high-precision image analysis of thousands of events, reveal that cortical microtubule arrays act as two-dimensional templates that pattern exocytosis at the nano-scale in higher plant cells. This mechanism is distinct from previously described mechanisms involving motor-driven transport and defines ordered and adjacent linear domains where secretory events are higher and lower than expected, effectively redistributing exocytosis over most of the cell membrane.

Background: Coronectomy is an alternative to complete surgical removal of a mandibular third molar that lies close to the inferior alveolar nerve.
Materials And Methods: This prospective study included patients >60 years old who had an indication for coronectomy of a mandibular third molar.
A multicenter cross-sectional diagnostic study was carried out including 45 children with nontuberculous mycobacterial cervicofacial lymphadenitis and controls. The tested immunoassay, detecting M. avium- specific anti-glycopeptidolipid-core immunoglobulin A antibodies, had inadequate diagnostic performance in the studied population and seems to be of no additional value in detecting cases of nontuberculous mycobacterial cervicofacial lymphadenitis.

Purpose: This study compared postoperative QoL after coronectomy and complete surgical removal of mandibular third molars during the first postoperative week.
Article Synopsis
- Researchers discovered that plant cell nuclei emit natural fluorescence in the near-infrared (NIR) spectrum, allowing for a non-invasive imaging technique in live cells.
- This NIR imaging method was successfully used to observe the dynamic behavior of nuclei in key plant structures like roots and pollen tubes, where other organelles have limited autofluorescence.
- The technique, driven by the phytochrome protein, was shown to work across various plant species and does not require genetic modifications, making it a valuable tool for studying both model and non-model plants.
