IFN-alpha inhibits B lymphocyte development, and the nuclear protein Daxx has been reported to be essential for this biological activity. We show in this study that IFN-alpha inhibits the clonal proliferation of B lymphocyte progenitors in response to IL-7 in wild-type, but not in tyk2-deficient, mice. In addition, the IFN-alpha-induced up-regulation and nuclear translocation of Daxx are completely abrogated in the absence of tyk2. Therefore, tyk2 is directly involved in IFN-alpha signaling for the induction and translocation of Daxx, which may result in B lymphocyte growth arrest and/or apoptosis.

TSG101 depletion dysregulates mitochondria and PML NBs, triggering MAD2-overexpressing interphase cell death (MOID) through AIFM1-PML-DAXX pathway.

Cell Death Dis

National Resource Center for Mutant Mice, MOE Key Laboratory of Model Animals for Disease Study, Model Animal Research Center, Medical School of Nanjing University, Nanjing, 210061, China.

Article Synopsis
  • * The process of MOID is influenced by the release of mitochondrial AIFM1 mediated by proteins PML and DAXX, indicating a complex interplay between mitochondrial function and cell survival mechanisms.
  • * Both MAD2 and TSG101 interact at PML nuclear bodies during interphase, and specific phosphorylation states of TSG101 are essential for this localization, emphasizing a vital regulatory pathway in controlling cell death and survival in cancer contexts.

Microglial Pdcd4 deficiency mitigates neuroinflammation-associated depression via facilitating Daxx mediated PPARγ/IL-10 signaling.

Article Synopsis
  • - The imbalance between pro- and anti-inflammatory processes in the brain is linked to major depressive disorder (MDD), but the exact details are not fully understood.
  • - Researchers found that removing a protein called Pdcd4 from microglia (brain immune cells) in mice protected against inflammation and depressive behavior caused by LPS, a substance that triggers an immune response.
  • - The study highlights that microglial Pdcd4 promotes inflammation by blocking the action of another protein that helps produce an anti-inflammatory cytokine, IL-10; targeting Pdcd4 could be a new strategy for treating depression related to neuroinflammation.

Porcine epidemic diarrhea virus (PEDV) is an enteric coronavirus that causes acute enteric disease in piglets and severely threatens the pig industry all over the world. Death domain-associated protein (DAXX) is a classical chaperone protein involved in multiple biological processes, such as cell apoptosis, transcriptional regulation, DNA damage repair, and host innate immunity. However, whether DAXX functions in the anti-PEDV innate immune responses remains unclear.

RIPK3 activation promotes DAXX-dependent neuronal necroptosis after intracerebral hemorrhage in mice.

CNS Neurosci Ther

January 2024

Department of Neurology, First Affiliated Hospital of Wannan Medical College, Yijishan Hospital, Wuhu, Anhui, China.

Background: Necroptosis induced by receptor-interacting protein kinase 3 (RIPK3) is engaged in intracerebral hemorrhage (ICH) pathology. In this study, we explored the impact of RIPK3 activation on neuronal necroptosis and the mechanism of the death domain-associated protein (DAXX)-mediated nuclear necroptosis pathway after ICH.

Methods: Potential molecules linked to the progression of ICH were discovered using RNA sequencing.
