Tetraspanins (Tspans) are transmembrane proteins that coordinate life cycle steps of viruses from distinct families. Here, we identify the human Tspan10 and Tspan15, both members of the TspanC8 subfamily, as replication factors for alphavirus Venezuelan equine encephalitis virus (VEEV) in astrocytoma cells. Pharmacological inhibition and siRNA-mediated silencing of TspanC8 interactor a disintegrin and metalloproteinase 10 (ADAM10) reduced VEEV infection.

Traumatic brain injury (TBI) often leads to impaired regulation of cerebral blood flow, which may be caused by pathological changes of the vascular smooth muscle cells (VSMCs) in the arterial wall. Moreover, these cerebrovascular changes may contribute to the development of various neurodegenerative disorders such as Alzheimer's-like pathologies that include amyloid beta aggregation. Despite its importance, the pathophysiological mechanisms responsible for VSMC dysfunction after TBI have rarely been evaluated.

MicroRNAs (miRNAs) are associated with amyloid-β (Aβ) dysmetabolism, a pivotal factor in the pathogenesis of Alzheimer's disease (AD). This study unveiled a novel miRNA, microRNA-32533 (miR-32533), featuring a distinctive base sequence identified through RNA sequencing of the APPswe/PSEN1dE9 (APP/PS1) mouse brain. Its role and underlying mechanisms were subsequently explored.

Calcitonin gene-related peptide (CGRP) biases Langerhans cell (LC) Ag presentation to CD4 T cells towards Th17-type immunity through actions on endothelial cells (ECs). We now report further evidence that IL-6 signalling at responding T cells mediates this effect. This CGRP effect was absent with ECs from IL-6 KO mice.

Understanding cell fate regulation in the liver is necessary to advance cell therapies for hepatic disease. Liver progenitor cells (LPC) contribute to tissue regeneration after severe hepatic injury yet signals instructing progenitor cell dynamics and fate are largely unknown. The Tissue Inhibitor of Metalloproteinases, TIMP1 and TIMP3 control the sheddases ADAM10 and ADAM17, key for NOTCH activation.
