Abstract
Failure to clear damaged mitochondria via mitophagy disrupts physiological function and may initiate damage signaling via inflammatory cascades, although how these pathways intersect remains unclear. We discovered that nuclear factor kappa B (NF-κB) essential regulator NF-κB effector molecule (NEMO) is recruited to damaged mitochondria in a Parkin-dependent manner in a time course similar to recruitment of the structurally related mitophagy adaptor, optineurin (OPTN). Upon recruitment, NEMO partitions into phase-separated condensates distinct from OPTN but colocalizing with p62/SQSTM1. NEMO recruitment, in turn, recruits the active catalytic inhibitor of kappa B kinase (IKK) component phospho-IKKβ, initiating NF-κB signaling and the upregulation of inflammatory cytokines. Consistent with a potential neuroinflammatory role, NEMO is recruited to mitochondria in primary astrocytes upon oxidative stress. These findings suggest that damaged, ubiquitinated mitochondria serve as an intracellular platform to initiate innate immune signaling, promoting the formation of activated IKK complexes sufficient to activate NF-κB signaling. We propose that mitophagy and NF-κB signaling are initiated as parallel pathways in response to mitochondrial stress.

Abstract
Autophagy is a cellular process that degrades cytoplasmic cargo by engulfing it in a double-membrane vesicle, known as the autophagosome, and delivering it to the lysosome. The ATG12-5-16L1 complex is responsible for conjugating members of the ubiquitin-like ATG8 protein family to phosphatidylethanolamine in the growing autophagosomal membrane, known as the phagophore. ATG12-5-16L1 is recruited to the phagophore by a subset of the phosphatidylinositol 3-phosphate-binding seven-bladedß -propeller WIPI proteins. We determined the crystal structure of WIPI2d in complex with the WIPI2 interacting region (W2IR) of ATG16L1 comprising residues 207-230 at 1.85 Å resolution. The structure shows that the ATG16L1 W2IR adopts an alpha helical conformation and binds in an electropositive and hydrophobic groove between WIPI2 ß-propeller blades 2 and 3. Mutation of residues at the interface reduces or blocks the recruitment of ATG12-5-16 L1 and the conjugation of the ATG8 protein LC3B to synthetic membranes. Interface mutants show a decrease in starvation-induced autophagy. Comparisons across the four human WIPIs suggest that WIPI1 and 2 belong to a W2IR-binding subclass responsible for localizing ATG12-5-16 L1 and driving ATG8 lipidation, whilst WIPI3 and 4 belong to a second W34IR-binding subclass responsible for localizing ATG2, and so directing lipid supply to the nascent phagophore. The structure provides a framework for understanding the regulatory node connecting two central events in autophagy initiation, the action of the autophagic PI 3-kinase complex on the one hand and ATG8 lipidation on the other.

Abstract
Mutations in Ubiquilin-2 (UBQLN2), a ubiquitin-binding shuttle protein involved in several protein quality control processes, can lead to amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS). We previously found that wild-type UBQLN2 forms dynamic, membraneless biomolecular condensates upon cellular stress, and undergoes liquid-liquid phase separation in vitro. However, the impact of ALS-linked mutations on UBQLN2 condensate formation in cells is unknown. Here, we employ live-cell imaging and photokinetic analysis to investigate how five patient-derived ALS-linked mutations in UBQLN2 impact stress-induced UBQLN2 condensate assembly and condensate material properties. Both wild-type and mutant UBQLN2 condensates are generally cytoplasmic and liquid-like. However, cells transfected with mutant UBQLN2 contain fewer stress-induced UBQLN2 condensates than those with wild-type UBQLN2. Most strikingly, exogenously expressed P506T UBQLN2 forms the lowest number of stress-induced condensates of all UBQLN2 mutants, and these condensates are significantly smaller than those of wild-type UBQLN2. Fluorescence recovery after photobleaching (FRAP) analysis of UBQLN2 condensates revealed higher immobile fractions for UBQLN2 mutants, especially P506T. P497S and P497H mutations differentially impact condensate properties, demonstrating that the effects of ALS-linked mutations are both position- and amino acid-dependent. Collectively, our data show that disease mutations hinder assembly and alter viscoelastic properties of stress-induced UBQLN2 condensates, potentially leading to aggregates commonly observed in ALS.

Abstract
Many chronic pain patients believe that they cannot function normally because of their pain. The Pain and Impairment Relationship Scale (PAIRS) was developed to assess the extent to which chronic pain patients endorse this belief, and the relationship of this belief to functional impairment, measured both subjectively and objectively. The PAIRS was administered to 56 patients in a chronic pain treatment program. The PAIRS demonstrated adequate internal consistency and it correlated significantly with another measure of the cognitive component of chronic pain syndrome, the Cognitive Errors Questionnaire--Low Back Scale. The PAIRS accounted for a significant proportion of variance in several measures of impairment (including the Sickness Impact Profile, restrictions in range of motion, and statements of limitation during a standardized exercise routine) beyond that accounted for solely by subjective pain estimate in multiple regression analyses. It appears that the belief that pain necessarily implies disability is associated with actual impairment, independent of the actual contribution of reported pain.

Abstract
Purified heparin extracted from tissues rich in mast cells remains the ideal rapid anticoagulant in clinical practice. Nevertheless, there are grounds for doubting that an injection of commercial heparin corresponds to the release of heparin-containing granules from the mast cells. The metachromatic granule contains much more than heparin--chondroitins, heparitins, histamine (in some species 5-hydroxytryptamine also), and a variety of enzymes. Shed granules, released by trauma of any kind, are ingested by connective-tissue phagocytes and are digested. Commercial heparin, on the other hand, is taken up by cells of the reticuloendothelial system and is stored there. This apparent paradox can be resolved by conceding that the mast cell is primarily concerned with the connective tissue, as Ehrlich saw it a century ago, and that, within these broad limits, it can express itself in a variety of ways.

Abstract
The promotion phase of carcinogenesis in mouse skin is accompanied by a mast-cell reaction in the upper dermis. Evidence is presented which suggests that this may be an immunological response, whereby distant lymphocytes migrate to the area and, in the presence of young fibroblasts, become transformed into tissue mast cells.

Abstract
The skin of congenitally athymic nu/nu mice is rich in mast cells which stain metachromatically, contain histamine and 5-hydroxytryptamine, and participate in the PCA reaction. Mast cells of athymic mice have thus the attributes of normal mast cells.
