Mutations in polycystin-1 (PC1) give rise to autosomal dominant polycystic kidney disease, an important and common cause of kidney failure. Despite its medical importance, the function of PC1 remains poorly understood. Here, we investigated the role of the intracellular polycystin-1, lipoxygenase, and α-toxin (PLAT) signature domain of PC1 using nuclear magnetic resonance, biochemical, cellular, and in vivo functional approaches. We found that the PLAT domain targets PC1 to the plasma membrane in polarized epithelial cells by a mechanism involving the selective binding of the PLAT domain to phosphatidylserine and L-α-phosphatidylinositol-4-phosphate (PI4P) enriched in the plasma membrane. This process is regulated by protein kinase A phosphorylation of the PLAT domain, which reduces PI4P binding and recruits β-arrestins and the clathrin adaptor AP2 to trigger PC1 internalization. Our results reveal a physiological role for the PC1-PLAT domain in renal epithelial cells and suggest that phosphorylation-dependent internalization of PC1 is closely linked to its function in renal development and homeostasis.

A number of studies have been demonstrated that arachidonate 5-lipoxygenase (ALOX-5) plays a role in regulating a range of physiological and pathological processes through the catalysis of leukotriene formation from arachidonic acid (ARA). The coding sequence of ALOX-5 from Apostichopus japonicus (Aj-ALOX-5) was successfully amplified, resulting in a 2028 bp ORF sequence that encodes 674 amino acids. A comparison of the amino acid sequence with those of other 5-lipoxygenases revealed that Aj-ALOX-5 has the N-terminal "PLAT domain" and C-terminal "lipoxygenase structural domain" characteristic of this enzyme family.

Lipoxygenases catalyze the peroxidation of poly-unsaturated fatty acid chains either free or esterified in membrane lipids. Vitis vinifera LoxA is transcriptionally induced at ripening onset and localizes at the inner chloroplast membrane where it is responsible for galactolipid regiospecific mono- and di-peroxidation. Here we present a kinetic and structural characterization of LoxA.

Purpose: Short-term intake of the egg-protein hydrolysate Newtricious (NWT)-03 improved executive function, but underlying mechanisms and long-term effects, including other cognitive domains, are unknown.
Methods: A 36-week randomized controlled trial involving 44 overweight/obese individuals experiencing elevated Subjective Cognitive Failures (SCF; aged 60-75 years) assessed the impact of daily consumption of 5.7 g of NWT-03 or placebo powders on cognitive performance (psychomotor speed, executive function, memory) and Cerebral Blood Flow (CBF), a marker of brain vascular function.
A de novo PKD1 mutation in a Chinese family with autosomal dominant polycystic kidney disease.

Background: PKD1, which has a relatively high mutation rate, is highly polymorphic, and the role of PKD1 is incompletely defined. In the current study, in order to determine the molecular etiology of a family with autosomal dominant polycystic kidney disease, the pathogenicity of an frameshift mutation in the PKD1 gene, c.9484delC, was evaluated.

Federated learning (FL) is a distributed machine learning framework that enables scattered participants to collaboratively train machine learning models without revealing information to other participants. Due to its distributed nature, FL is susceptible to being manipulated by malicious clients. These malicious clients can launch backdoor attacks by contaminating local data or tampering with local model gradients, thereby damaging the global model.
