Plasma membrane proteins are amenable to endocytosis assays since they are easily labeled by reagents applied in the extracellular medium. This has been widely exploited to study constitutive endocytosis or ligand-induced receptor endocytosis. Compensatory endocytosis is the mechanism by which components of secretory vesicles are retrieved after vesicle fusion with the plasma membrane in response to cell stimulation and a rise in intracellular calcium. Luminal membrane proteins from secretory vesicles are therefore transiently exposed at the plasma membrane. Here, we described an antibody-based method to monitor compensatory endocytosis in chromaffin cells and present an image-based analysis to quantify endocytic vesicles distribution.

The infiltration and excessive polarization of M1 macrophages contribute to the induction and persistence of low-grade inflammation in joint-related degenerative diseases such as osteoarthritis (OA). The lipid metabolism dysregulation promotes M1 macrophage polarization by coordinating the compensatory pathways of the inflammatory and oxidative stress responses. Here, a self-assembling, licofelone-loaded nanoparticle (termed LCF-CSBN), comprising chondroitin sulfate and bilirubin joined by an ethylenediamine linker, is developed to selectively reprogram lipid metabolism in macrophage activation.

Apoptotic cells can signal to neighboring cells to stimulate proliferation and compensate for cell loss to maintain tissue homeostasis. While apoptotic cell-derived extracellular vesicles (AEVs) can transmit instructional cues to mediate communication with neighboring cells, the molecular mechanisms that induce cell division are not well understood. Here, we show that macrophage migration inhibitory factor (Mif)-containing AEVs regulate compensatory proliferation via ERK signaling in epithelial stem cells of larval zebrafish.

Introduction: Systemic sclerosis (SSc) is an autoimmune disease characterized by antinuclear antibody production, which has been linked to an excess of apoptotic cells, normally eliminated by macrophages through efferocytosis. Additionally, circulating levels of CXCL4, a novel SSc biomarker, correlate with more severe fibrotic manifestations of the disease. Considering the defective efferocytosis of macrophages in SSc and the CXCL4-related M4 macrophage phenotype, we hypothesized that CXCL4 could be involved in the alteration of phagocytic functions of macrophages in SSc, including LC3-associated phagocytosis (LAP), another phagocytic process requiring autophagy proteins and contributing to immune silencing.

Disruptions of the eukaryotic plasma membrane due to chemical and mechanical challenges are frequent and detrimental and thus need to be repaired to maintain proper cell function and avoid cell death. However, the cellular mechanisms involved in wound resealing and restoration of homeostasis are diverse and contended. Here, it is shown that clathrin-mediated endocytosis is induced at later stages of plasma membrane wound repair following the actual resealing of the wound.

Ribbon synapses of inner hair cells (IHCs) are uniquely designed for ultrafast and indefatigable neurotransmission of the sound. The molecular machinery ensuring the efficient, compensatory recycling of the synaptic vesicles (SVs), however, remains elusive. This study showed that hair cell knock-out of murine , whose human homolog is responsible for nonsyndromic sensorineural hearing loss DFNA71, resulted in auditory synaptopathy by impairing synaptic endocytosis and recycling.
