Summary: Anticancer drug resistance is a major challenge in cancer treatment, and extracellular vesicles (EVs) derived from cancer cells have been identified as a crucial mechanism for drug resistance, tumor progression, and metastasis. EVs, which consist of a lipid bilayer, can transfer various substances including proteins, nucleic acids, lipids, and metabolites from the originating cell to the recipient cell. The investigation of EVs' role in drug resistance is still at an early stage. This review analyzes the involvement of EVs derived from triple-negative breast cancer cells (TNBC-EVs) in anticancer drug resistance and discusses strategies to overcome TNBC-EV-mediated drug resistance.

Summary: In this study, a method for extracting extracellular vesicles (EVs) from epithelial ovarian cancer (EOC) tissues was optimized to investigate the effect of cryopreservation on the phenotypes, contents, and biological functions of the extracted EVs. The results showed that cryopreservation affected the yield and distribution of EVs, but not their morphology or particle mass ratio. The storage of tissues at -80°C increased both small and large EV yields, while the storage of lysates at -80°C decreased large EV yield and increased small EV yield. The cryopreserved EOC tissue retained a high percentage of proteins and miRNAs, and the extracted EVs could promote angiogenesis and invasive migration ability in human endothelial cells. This suggests that cryopreserved EOC tissue has clinical value for studying tissue-derived EVs, especially those related to EV proteins.

Summary: Therapeutic functions of MSCs are largely mediated through paracrine effects by releasing various components such as cytokines, chemokines, and metabolites, among which exosomes play a significant role in tissue repair and immune modulation. However, MSC-derived exosomes can exhibit both tumor-inhibitory and tumor-supportive effects, depending on their interactions with cancer cells. The microRNA content of exosomes is crucial in determining their specific actions in different tissues and diseases.

Summary: The impact of extracellular vesicles (EVs) on anti-tumor immune responses is still being explored. The small size and numerous subtypes of EVs, as well as the difficulty in determining their origin, pose challenges for investigation. While the study of cancer EVs has been facilitated by the existence of tumor cell lines, understanding the phenotypes and functions of immune cell EVs in this context is more complex. The emergence of immunotherapy with immune checkpoint inhibitors has increased the need to understand the role of EVs in immune activation and response, particularly in unraveling and preventing resistance in patients.

Summary: Alterations in glycosylation machinery in cancer cells lead to the synthesis of abnormal glycan structures in tumor cells. Extracellular vesicles (EVs) are involved in cancer communication and progression, and certain tumor-associated glycans have been identified in cancer EVs. This study investigates the impact of 3D tumor architecture on the selective packaging of cellular glycans into EVs. The results show differential packaging of specific proteins and glycans in EVs produced by 2D and 3D cultured cells, suggesting distinct biological functions and correlation with clinical data.

Summary: Researchers used cryo-electron microscopy to determine the structure of the complex formed by ISDra2 TnpB, its cognate.RNA, and target DNA. They found that the.RNA had an unexpected structure and formed a pseudoknot, which is a common feature among all guide RNAs of Cas12 enzymes. Furthermore, the structure revealed how the compact TnpB recognized the omega RNA and cleaved the target DNA complementary to the guide. Comparison with Cas12 enzymes suggested that CRISPR-Cas12 effectors acquired the ability to recognize the protospacer-adjacent motif-distal end of the guide RNA-target DNA heteroduplex, possibly through asymmetric dimer formation or diverse REC2 insertions, enabling engagement in CRISPR-Cas adaptive immunity. Overall, this study provides mechanistic insights into TnpB function and advances our understanding of the evolution from transposon-encoded TnpB proteins to CRISPR-Cas12 effectors.

Summary: Stimulator of interferon genes (STING) is crucial for the immune response against DNA pathogens, and its degradation is mediated by endosomal sorting complexes required for transport (ESCRT) proteins. STING-positive vesicles derived from recycling endosomes are encapsulated into lysosomes after STING ubiquitination. This study provides insights into the regulation of STING and prevents hyperactivation of the immune response.

Summary: Heterochromatin, a critical architectural feature of eukaryotic chromosomes, plays crucial roles in cell type-specific gene expression and genome stability. The spatial organization of heterochromatin is poorly understood, and this study investigates the role of H3K9 and H3K27 methylation in heterochromatin organization. The findings demonstrate that the loss of H3K9 methylation leads to the redistribution of H3K27me3 and impaired condensation and spatial organization of heterochromatin in mammalian cells.

Summary: This study examined the effects of ACR on TG2 activity at a structural level and its role in depleting liver cancer stem cells (CSCs). It was found that ACR directly binds to TG2, induces oligomer formation, and inhibits the transamidase activity of cytoplasmic TG2. The loss of TG2 function suppressed stemness-related genes, spheroid proliferation, and induced cell death in a liver CSC subpopulation. Proteome analysis revealed that TG2 inhibition suppressed the expression of EXT1 and heparan sulfate biosynthesis. ACR could act as a novel TG2 inhibitor and TG2-mediated EXT1 signaling is a promising therapeutic target.

Summary: By using cryo-EM, the authors determined the structure of a PSI monomer associated with six IsiA proteins in Anabaena, providing insights into the diversity and functions of IsiAs. IsiAs are expressed in cyanobacteria under iron-deficient conditions, and the binding properties and functional roles of IsiAs in PSI were still unknown in Anabaena. The cryo-EM structure of a PSI-IsiA supercomplex isolated from iron-deficient Anabaena revealed the association of six IsiA subunits with a PSI core monomer, and the absence of a PsaL subunit due to the occupation of its position by the C-terminal domain of IsiA2.

Summary: TEAD transcription factors regulate the transcriptional output of Hippo signaling by phosphorylating YAP and TAZ as coactivators. Recent studies have shown that cysteine palmitoylation also plays a role in regulating TEAD activity. This study discovers lysine long-chain fatty acylation as another post-translational modification of TEADs. Lysine fatty acylation enhances the interaction between TEADs and YAP/TAZ, contributing to their transcriptional activity. Interestingly, lysine fatty acylation of TEADs increases upon Hippo signaling activation, despite a decrease in cysteine acylation. These findings provide new insights into the regulation of TEAD activity through fatty-acyl modifications.

Summary: In this study, the authors discovered that p300/CBP recognizes and acetylates histone H4 N-terminal tail (NT) acetylation (ac) in a nucleosome, and also acetylates non-H4 histone NTs within the same nucleosome. The authors propose a model in which p300/CBP replicates histone N-terminal tail acetylation within the H3-H4 tetramer and transfers it to the H2B-H2A dimers to activate context-dependent gene transcription through local nucleosome destabilization.

Summary: Phenylarsine oxide (PAO) can activate mouse STING by covalently binding to cysteine residues, independent of cGAS or cGAMP. STING activation with PAO requires ER-to-Golgi trafficking and palmitoylation of STING. The study reveals that cysteine residues in STING can serve as a novel target for the development of STING agonists.
