Abstract
While the role of endocytosis in focal adhesion turnover-coupled cell migration has been established in addition to its conventional role in cellular functions, the molecular regulators and precise molecular mechanisms that underlie this process remain largely unknown. In this study, we report that proto-oncoprotein hematopoietic PBX-interacting protein (HPIP) localizes to focal adhesions as well as endosomal compartments along with RUN FYVE domain-containing protein 3 (RUFY3) and Rab5, an early endosomal protein. HPIP contains two coiled-coil domains (CC1 and CC2) that are necessary for its association with Rab5 and RUFY3 as CC domain double mutant, that is, mtHPIPΔCC1-2 failed to support it. Furthermore, we show that HPIP and RUFY3 activate Rab5 by serving as noncanonical guanine nucleotide exchange factors of Rab5. In support of this, either deletion of coiled-coil domains or silencing of HPIP or RUFY3 impairs Rab5 activation and Rab5-dependent cell migration. Mechanistic studies further revealed that loss of HPIP or RUFY3 expression severely impairs Rab5-mediated focal adhesion disassembly, FAK activation, fibronectin-associated-β1 integrin trafficking, and thus cell migration. Together, this study underscores the importance of HPIP and RUFY3 as noncanonical guanine nucleotide exchange factors of Rab5 and in integrin trafficking and focal adhesion turnover, which implicates in cell migration.

Abstract
Metabolic reprogramming is a unique but complex biochemical adaptation that allows solid tumors to tolerate various stresses that challenge cancer cells for survival. Under conditions of metabolic stress, mammalian cells employ adenosine monophosphate (AMP)-activated protein kinase (AMPK) to regulate energy homeostasis by controlling cellular metabolism. AMPK has been described as a cellular energy sensor that communicates with various metabolic pathways and networks to maintain energy balance. Earlier studies characterized AMPK as a tumor suppressor in the context of cancer. Later, a paradigm shift occurred in support of the oncogenic nature of AMPK, considering it a contextual oncogene. In support of this, various cellular and mouse models of tumorigenesis and clinicopathological studies demonstrated increased AMPK activity in various cancers. This review will describe AMPK's pro-tumorigenic activity in various malignancies and explain the rationale and context for using AMPK inhibitors in combination with anti-metabolite drugs to treat AMPK-driven cancers.

Abstract
Acting as a bridge between the cytoskeleton of the cell and the extra cellular matrix (ECM), the cell-ECM adhesions with integrins at their core, play a major role in cell signalling to direct mechanotransduction, cell migration, cell cycle progression, proliferation, differentiation, growth and repair. Biochemically, these adhesions are composed of diverse, yet an organised group of structural proteins, receptors, adaptors, various enzymes including protein kinases, phosphatases, GTPases, proteases, etc. as well as scaffolding molecules. The major integrin adhesion complexes (IACs) characterised are focal adhesions (FAs), invadosomes (podosomes and invadopodia), hemidesmosomes (HDs) and reticular adhesions (RAs). The varied composition and regulation of the IACs and their signalling, apart from being an integral part of normal cell survival, has been shown to be of paramount importance in various developmental and pathological processes. This review per-illustrates the recent advancements in the research of IACs, their crucial roles in normal as well as diseased states. We have also touched on few of the various methods that have been developed over the years to visualise IACs, measure the forces they exert and study their signalling and molecular composition. Having such pertinent roles in the context of various pathologies, these IACs need to be understood and studied to develop therapeutical targets. We have given an update to the studies done in recent years and described various techniques which have been applied to study these structures, thereby, providing context in furthering research with respect to IAC targeted therapeutics.
