The metalloprotease ADAM10 mediates the shedding of the ectodomain of various cell membrane proteins, including APP, the precursor of the amyloid peptide Aβ, and Notch receptors following ligand binding. ADAM10 associates with the members of an evolutionary conserved subgroup of tetraspanins, referred to as TspanC8, which regulate its exit from the endoplasmic reticulum. Here we show that 4 of these TspanC8 (Tspan5, Tspan14, Tspan15 and Tspan33) which positively regulate ADAM10 surface expression levels differentially impact ADAM10-dependent Notch activation and the cleavage of several ADAM10 substrates, including APP, N-cadherin and CD44. Sucrose gradient fractionation, single molecule tracking and quantitative mass-spectrometry analysis of the repertoire of molecules co-immunoprecipitated with Tspan5, Tspan15 and ADAM10 show that these two tetraspanins differentially regulate ADAM10 membrane compartmentalization. These data represent a unique example where several tetraspanins differentially regulate the function of a common partner protein through a distinct membrane compartmentalization.

Background: Beyond their conventional roles in hemostasis and wound healing, platelets have been shown to facilitate hematogenous metastasis by interacting with cancer cells. Depending on the activation route, platelets also generate different platelet-derived extracellular vesicles (PEVs) that may educate cancer cells in the circulation or within the tumor microenvironment. We engaged different platelet-activating receptors, including glycoprotein VI and C-type lectin-like receptor 2, to generate a spectrum of PEV types.

Exosomes are released from multiple cell types as part of their normal physiology as well as during acquired abnormalities. In this study, we investigated the effect of pathogenic Edwardsiella piscicida infection on olive flounder (Paralichthys olivaceus) exosomes at morphometric, physicochemical, and molecular levels. Unique cup-shaped exosomes were isolated from the plasma of non-infected (PBS-Exo) and E.

Wild animals are exposed to a variety of anthropogenic stressors that may result in loss of physiological homeostasis. One main consequence of this stress exposure is the increased vulnerability to pathogens. We addressed the hypothesis that energetic unbalance and alterations of immune effectors are key proximate mechanisms underlying this vulnerability, by quantifying the gene expression of magnificent frigatebird Fregata magnificens chicks affected by a highly lethal viral disease, whose appearance is favoured by food limitation in this species.

Tetraspanins (TETs) are integral membrane proteins, characterized by four transmembrane domains and a unique signature motif in their large extracellular loop. They form dynamic supramolecular complexes called tetraspanin-enriched microdomains (TEMs), through interactions with partner proteins. In plants, TETs are involved in development, reproduction and immune responses, but their role in defining abiotic stress responses is largely underexplored.

Unlabelled: In the aquaculture sector, one of the challenges includes disease outbreaks such as bacterial infections, particularly from (), impacting both wild and farmed fish. In this study, we conducted a proteomic analysis of the intestinal tissue in following infection to elucidate the protein alterations and its implications for immune response. Our findings indicate significant dysregulation in extracellular matrix (ECM)-associated proteins during infection, with increased abundance of elastin and collagen alpha-3(VI).
