Accurate data on the prevalence and psychological effects of human trafficking as well as treatment outcomes for survivors are essential for measuring the impact of interventions and generating better understanding of this phenomenon. However, such data are difficult to obtain. A legal mandate for health care professionals to report trafficking opens opportunities for advancing our work in the field of human trafficking but also poses risks to survivors seeking services. In this article, we provide an analysis of some critical ethical considerations for the development and implementation of a mandatory reporting policy and offer recommendations for the ethical implementation of such a policy.

The RNA-binding properties of Annexins.

J Mol Biol

January 2025

Elettra Sincrotrone Trieste, Italy; The Wohl Institute, King's College London, 5 Cutcombe Rd, SW59RT London, UK. Electronic address:

Annexins are a family of calcium-dependent phospholipid-binding proteins involved in crucial cellular processes such as cell division, calcium signaling, vesicle trafficking, membrane repair, and apoptosis. In addition to these properties, Annexins have also been shown to bind RNA, although this function is not universally recognized. In the attempt to clarify this important issue, we employed an integrated combination of experimental and computational approaches.

Disrupting EDEM3-induced M2-like macrophage trafficking by glucose restriction overcomes resistance to PD-1/PD-L1 blockade.

Background: Immunotherapy is beneficial for some colorectal cancer (CRC) patients, but immunosuppressive networks limit its effectiveness. Cancer-associatedfibroblasts (CAFs) are significant in immune escape and resistance toimmunotherapy, emphasizing the urgent need for new treatment strategies.

Methods: Flow cytometric, Western blotting, proteomics analysis, analysis of public database data, genetically modified cell line models, T cell coculture, crystal violetstaining, ELISA, metabonomic and clinical tumour samples were conducted to assess the role of EDEM3 in immune escape and itsmolecular mechanisms.

Alzheimers Dement

Shenzhen Bay Laboratory, Shenzhen, Guandong, China.

Background: The classic mode of STING activation is through binding the cyclic dinucleotide 2'3'-cyclic GMP-AMP (cGAMP), produced by the DNA sensor cyclic GMP-AMP synthase (cGAS), which is important for the innate immune response to microbial infection and autoimmune disease. Modes of STING activation that are independent of cGAS are much less well understood. We wanted to explore the interactome of STING on the organelles during its trafficking route and to understand the regulatory network of STING signaling.

Background: BIN1 is a major susceptibility gene for AD and BIN1 protein interacts with Tau. However, the contribution of BIN1 and its isoforms to AD pathogenesis remains unclear. We recently described that human BIN1 isoform1 (BIN1iso1) induces an accumulation of early endosome vesicles leading to neurodegeneration in Drosophila retina and that the early endosome size regulation was conserved in human induced neurons.

Background: Synapses can modify their strength in response to activity, and the unique properties of synapses that regulate their plasticity are essential for memory. Long-term potentiation (LTP) is considered the physiological basis for how neurons encode new memories. A complex series of postsynaptic signaling events in LTP is associated with memory deficits in tauopathy models, but the mechanism by which pathogenic tau inhibits plasticity at synapses is unknown.
