The protein known as PI3K-interacting protein (PIK3IP1), or transmembrane inhibitor of PI3K (TrIP), is highly expressed by T cells and can modulate PI3K activity in these cells. Several studies have also revealed that TrIP is rapidly downregulated following T cell activation. However, it is unclear as to how this downregulation is controlled. Using a novel monoclonal antibody that robustly stains cell-surface TrIP, we demonstrate that TrIP is lost from the surface of activated T cells in a manner dependent on the strength of signaling through the T cell receptor (TCR) and specific downstream signaling pathways, in particular classical PKC isoforms. TrIP expression returns by 24 hours after stimulation, suggesting that it may play a role in resetting TCR signaling at later time points. We also provide evidence that ADAM family proteases are required for both constitutive and stimulation-induced downregulation of TrIP in T cells. Finally, by expressing truncated forms of TrIP in cells, we identify the region in the extracellular stalk domain of TrIP that is targeted for proteolytic cleavage.

A 55-year-old woman with non-small cell lung carcinoma complained of epigastric pain, bloating, anorexia and postprandial nausea and vomiting over a five-year period. An upper gastrointestinal pan-glucosamine contrast examination revealed a distinctive large, hook-shaped, ptotic gastric lumen with normal motility. The contrast agent demonstrated an abnormal round-trip flow anterior to the spine at the duodenal level, with pooling and gradual passage through this region in strands after prolonged retention.

Background: The institutional standard follow-up schedule for patients undergoing spinal instrumentation and fusion for adolescent idiopathic scoliosis (AIS) is return to clinic at 6-weeks and 3 months post-procedure for radiographs. COVID-19 prompted a change in this practice and most routine post-op visits were performed virtually during that time. The purpose of this study is to estimate the cost and benefit of in-person visits to inform the relative value of in-person follow-up using data from the year prior to COVID changes.

Understanding the relative contributions of environmental, behavioural and social factors to reproductive success is crucial for predicting population dynamics of seabirds. However, these factors are often studied in isolation, limiting our ability to evaluate their combined influence. This study investigates how marine environmental variables, foraging behaviour and social factors (divorce), influence reproductive success in little penguins () over 13 breeding seasons.
