Abstract
Posttranslational modifications regulate the properties and abundance of synaptic α-amino-3-hydroxy-5-methyl-4-isoxazolepropionic acid (AMPA) receptors that mediate fast excitatory synaptic transmission and synaptic plasticity in the central nervous system. During long-term depression (LTD), protein tyrosine phosphatases (PTPs) dephosphorylate tyrosine residues in the C-terminal tail of AMPA receptor GluA2 subunit, which is essential for GluA2 endocytosis and group I metabotropic glutamate receptor (mGluR)-dependent LTD. However, as a selective downstream effector of mGluRs, the mGluR-dependent PTP responsible for GluA2 tyrosine dephosphorylation remains elusive at Schaffer collateral (SC)-CA1 synapses. In the present study, we find that mGluR5 stimulation activates Src homology 2 (SH2) domain-containing phosphatase 2 (SHP2) by increasing phospho-Y542 levels in SHP2. Under steady-state conditions, SHP2 plays a protective role in stabilizing phospho-Y869 of GluA2 by directly interacting with GluA2 phosphorylated at Y869, without affecting GluA2 phospho-Y876 levels. Upon mGluR5 stimulation, SHP2 dephosphorylates GluA2 at Y869 and Y876, resulting in GluA2 endocytosis and mGluR-LTD. Our results establish SHP2 as a downstream effector of mGluR5 and indicate a dual action of SHP2 in regulating GluA2 tyrosine phosphorylation and function. Given the implications of mGluR5 and SHP2 in synaptic pathophysiology, we propose SHP2 as a promising therapeutic target for neurodevelopmental and autism spectrum disorders.

Abstract
Endocytosis is a key cellular pathway required for the internalization of cellular nutrients, lipids and receptor-bound cargoes. It is also critical for the recycling of cellular components, cellular trafficking and membrane dynamics. The endocytic pathway has been consistently implicated in Alzheimer's disease (AD) through repeated genome-wide association studies and the existence of rare coding mutations in endocytic genes. BIN1 and PICALM are two of the most significant late-onset AD risk genes after APOE and are both key to clathrin-mediated endocytic biology. Pathological studies also demonstrate that endocytic dysfunction is an early characteristic of late-onset AD, being seen in the prodromal phase of the disease. Different cell types of the brain have specific requirements of the endocytic pathway. Neurons require efficient recycling of synaptic vesicles and microglia use the specialized form of endocytosis-phagocytosis-for their normal function. Therefore, disease-associated changes in endocytic genes will have varied impacts across different cell types, which remains to be fully explored. Given the genetic and pathological evidence for endocytic dysfunction in AD, understanding how such changes and the related cell type-specific vulnerabilities impact normal cellular function and contribute to disease is vital and could present novel therapeutic opportunities. This article is part of a discussion meeting issue 'Understanding the endo-lysosomal network in neurodegeneration'.

Abstract
Clathrin-mediated endocytosis (CME) is a highly conserved pathway that plays a crucial role in the endocytosis of plasma membrane proteins in eukaryotic cells. The pathway is initiated when the adaptor protein complex 2 (AP2) and TPLATE complex (TPC) work together to recognize cargo proteins and recruit clathrin. This review provides a concise overview of the functions of each subunit of AP2 and TPC, and highlights the involvement of CME in various biological processes, such as pollen development, root development, nutrient transport, extracellular signal transduction, auxin polar transport, hyperosmotic stress, salinity stress, high ammonium stress, and disease resistance. Additionally, the review explores the regulation of CME by phytohormones, clathrin-mediated exocytosis (CMX), and AP2M phosphorylation. It also suggests potential future research directions for CME.

Abstract
Cell-penetrating peptides (CPPs) play a significant role in the delivery of cargos into human cells. We report the first CPPs based on peptide-bismuth bicycles, which can be readily obtained from commercially available peptide precursors, making them accessible for a wide range of applications. These CPPs enter human cells as demonstrated by live-cell confocal microscopy using fluorescently labelled peptides. We report efficient sequences that demonstrate increased cellular uptake compared to conventional CPPs like the TAT peptide (derived from the transactivating transcriptional activator of human immunodeficiency virus 1) or octaarginine (R8 ), despite requiring only three positive charges. Bicyclization triggered by the presence of bismuth(III) increases cellular uptake by more than one order of magnitude. Through the analysis of cell lysates using inductive coupled plasma mass spectrometry (ICP-MS), we have introduced an alternative approach to examine the cellular uptake of CPPs. This has allowed us to confirm the presence of bismuth in cells after exposure to our CPPs. Mechanistic studies indicated an energy-dependent endocytic cellular uptake sensitive to inhibition by rottlerin, most likely involving macropinocytosis.

Abstract
The endocytic trafficking pathway is a highly organized cellular program responsible for the regulation of membrane components and uptake of extracellular substances. Molecules internalized into the cell through endocytosis will be sorted for degradation or recycled back to membrane, which is determined by a series of sorting events. Many receptors, enzymes, and transporters on the membrane are strictly regulated by endocytic trafficking process, and thus the endocytic pathway has a profound effect on cellular homeostasis. However, the endocytic trafficking process is typically dysregulated in cancers, which leads to the aberrant retention of receptor tyrosine kinases and immunosuppressive molecules on cell membrane, the loss of adhesion protein, as well as excessive uptake of nutrients. Therefore, hijacking endocytic trafficking pathway is an important approach for tumor cells to obtain advantages of proliferation and invasion, and to evade immune attack. Here, we summarize how dysregulated endocytic trafficking process triggers tumorigenesis and progression from the perspective of several typical cancer hallmarks. The impact of endocytic trafficking pathway to cancer therapy efficacy is also discussed.

Abstract
Intersectin (ITSN) is a multi-domain scaffold protein with a diverse array of functions including regulation of endocytosis, vesicle transport, and activation of various signal transduction pathways. There are two ITSN genes located on chromosomes 21 and 2 encoding for proteins ITSN1 and ITSN2, respectively. Each ITSN gene encodes two major isoforms, ITSN-Long (ITSN-L) and ITSN-Short (ITSN-S), due to alternative splicing. ITSN1 and 2, collectively referred to as ITSN, are implicated in many physiological and pathological processes, such as neuronal maintenance, actin cytoskeletal rearrangement, and tumor progression. ITSN is mis-regulated in many tumors, such as breast, lung, neuroblastomas, and gliomas. Altered expression of ITSN is also found in several neurodegenerative diseases, such as Down Syndrome and Alzheimer's disease. This review summarizes recent studies on ITSN and provides an overview of the function of this important family of scaffold proteins in various biological processes.

Abstract
Endocytosis is a major bottleneck toward cytosolic delivery of nucleic acids, as the vast majority of nucleic acid drugs remain trapped within endosomes. Current trends to overcome endosomal entrapment and subsequent degradation provide varied success; however, active delivery agents such as cell-penetrating peptides have emerged as a prominent strategy to improve cytosolic delivery. Yet, these membrane-active agents have poor selectivity for endosomal membranes, leading to toxicity. A hallmark of endosomes is their acidic environment, which aids in degradation of foreign materials. Here, we develop a pH-triggered spherical nucleic acid that provides smart antisense oligonucleotide (ASO) release upon endosomal acidification and selective membrane disruption, termed DNA EndosomaL Escape Vehicle Response (DELVR). We anchor i-Motif DNA to a nanoparticle (AuNP), where the complement strand contains both an ASO sequence and a functionalized endosomal escape peptide (EEP). By orienting the EEP toward the AuNP core, the EEP is inactive until it is released through acidification-induced i-Motif folding. In this study, we characterize a small library of i-Motif duplexes to develop a structure-switching nucleic acid sequence triggered by endosomal acidification. We evaluate antisense efficacy using HIF1a, a hypoxic indicator upregulated in many cancers, and demonstrate dose-dependent activity through RT-qPCR. We show that DELVR significantly improves ASO efficacy in vitro. Finally, we use fluorescence lifetime imaging and activity measurement to show that DELVR benefits synergistically from nuclease- and pH-driven release strategies with increased ASO endosomal escape efficiency. Overall, this study develops a modular platform that improves the cytosolic delivery of nucleic acid therapeutics and offers key insights for overcoming intracellular barriers.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Many viruses enter host cells by hijacking endosomal trafficking. CapZ, a canonical actin capping protein, participates in endosomal trafficking, yet its precise role in endocytosis and virus infection remains elusive. RESULTS Here, we showed that CapZ was transiently associated with early endosomes (EEs) and was subsequently released from the matured EEs after the fusion of two EEs, which was facilitated by PI(3)P to PI(3,5)P2 conversion. Vacuolin-1 (a triazine compound) stabilized CapZ at EEs and thus blocked the transition of EEs to late endosomes (LEs). Likewise, artificially tethering CapZ to EEs via a rapamycin-induced protein-protein interaction system blocked the early-to-late endosome transition. Remarkably, CapZ knockout or artificially tethering CapZ to EEs via rapamycin significantly inhibited flaviviruses, e.g., Zika virus (ZIKV) and dengue virus (DENV), or beta-coronavirus, e.g., murine hepatitis virus (MHV), infection by preventing the escape of RNA genome from endocytic vesicles. CONCLUSIONS These results indicate that the temporal association of CapZ with EEs facilitates early-to-late endosome transition (physiologically) and the release of the viral genome from endocytic vesicles (pathologically).

Abstract
The development of a small-molecule probe designed to selectively target neurons would enhance the exploration of intricate neuronal structures and functions. Among such probes, NeuO stands out as the pioneer and has gained significant traction in the field of research. Nevertheless, neither the mechanism behind neuron-selectivity nor the cellular localization has been determined. Here, we introduce NeuM, a derivative of NeuO, designed to target neuronal cell membranes. Furthermore, we elucidate the mechanism behind the selective neuronal membrane trafficking that distinguishes neurons. In an aqueous buffer, NeuM autonomously assembles into micellar structures, leading to the quenching of its fluorescence (Φ=0.001). Upon exposure to neurons, NeuM micelles were selectively internalized into neuronal endosomes via clathrin-mediated endocytosis. Through the endocytic recycling pathway, NeuM micelles integrate into neuronal membrane, dispersing fluorescent NeuM molecules in the membrane (Φ=0.61). Molecular dynamics simulations demonstrated that NeuM, in comparison to NeuO, possesses optimal lipophilicity and molecular length, facilitating its stable incorporation into phospholipid layers. The stable integration of NeuM within neuronal membrane allows the prolonged monitoring of neurons, as well as the visualization of intricate neuronal structures.

Abstract
Adherent cells ensure membrane homeostasis during de-adhesion by various mechanisms, including endocytosis. Although mechano-chemical feedbacks involved in this process have been studied, the step-by-step build-up and resolution of the mechanical changes by endocytosis are poorly understood. To investigate this, we studied the de-adhesion of HeLa cells using a combination of interference reflection microscopy, optical trapping and fluorescence experiments. We found that de-adhesion enhanced membrane height fluctuations of the basal membrane in the presence of an intact cortex. A reduction in the tether force was also noted at the apical side. However, membrane fluctuations reveal phases of an initial drop in effective tension followed by saturation. The area fractions of early (Rab5-labelled) and recycling (Rab4-labelled) endosomes, as well as transferrin-labelled pits close to the basal plasma membrane, also transiently increased. On blocking dynamin-dependent scission of endocytic pits, the regulation of fluctuations was not blocked, but knocking down AP2-dependent pit formation stopped the tension recovery. Interestingly, the regulation could not be suppressed by ATP or cholesterol depletion individually but was arrested by depleting both. The data strongly supports Clathrin and AP2-dependent pit-formation to be central to the reduction in fluctuations confirmed by super-resolution microscopy. Furthermore, we propose that cholesterol-dependent pits spontaneously regulate tension under ATP-depleted conditions.

Abstract
Most cell surface proteins are decorated by glycans, and the plasma membrane is rich in glycosylated lipids. The mechanisms by which the enormous complexity of these glycan structures on proteins and lipids is exploited to control glycoprotein activity by setting their cell surface residence time and the ways by which they are taken up into cells are still under active investigation. Here, two mechanisms are presented, termed galectin lattices and glycolipid-lectin (GL-Lect)-driven endocytosis, which are among the most prominent to establish a link between glycan information and endocytosis. Types of glycans on glycoproteins and glycolipids are reviewed from the angle of their interaction with glycan-binding proteins that are at the heart of galectin lattices and GL-Lect-driven endocytosis. Examples are given to show how these mechanisms affect cellular functions ranging from cell migration and signaling to vascularization and immune modulation. Finally, outstanding challenges on the link between glycosylation and endocytosis are discussed.

Abstract
The HIV-1 accessory protein Nef hijacks clathrin adaptors to degrade or mislocalize host proteins involved in antiviral defenses. Here, using quantitative live-cell microscopy in genome-edited Jurkat cells, we investigate the impact of Nef on clathrin-mediated endocytosis (CME), a major pathway for membrane protein internalization in mammalian cells. Nef is recruited to CME sites on the plasma membrane, and this recruitment is associated with an increase in the recruitment and lifetime of the CME coat protein AP-2 and the late-arriving CME protein dynamin2. Furthermore, we find that CME sites that recruit Nef are more likely to recruit dynamin2 and transferrin, suggesting that Nef recruitment to CME sites promotes site maturation to ensure high efficiency in host protein downregulation. Implications of these observations for HIV-1 infection are discussed.

Abstract
Exocytosis and endocytosis are essential physiological processes and are of prime importance for brain function. Neurotransmission depends on the Ca2+-triggered exocytosis of synaptic vesicles (SVs). In neurons, exocytosis is spatiotemporally coupled to the retrieval of an equal amount of membrane and SV proteins by compensatory endocytosis. How exocytosis and endocytosis are balanced to maintain presynaptic membrane homeostasis and, thereby, sustain brain function is essentially unknown. We combine mouse genetics with optical imaging to show that the SV calcium sensor Synaptotagmin 1 couples exocytic SV fusion to the endocytic retrieval of SV membranes by promoting the local activity-dependent formation of the signaling lipid phosphatidylinositol 4,5-bisphosphate (PI(4,5)P2) at presynaptic sites. Interference with these mechanisms impairs PI(4,5)P2-triggered SV membrane retrieval but not exocytic SV fusion. Our findings demonstrate that the coupling of SV exocytosis and endocytosis involves local Synaptotagmin 1-induced lipid signaling to maintain presynaptic membrane homeostasis in central nervous system neurons.

Abstract
Endophilin is an evolutionarily conserved family of protein that involves in a range of intracellular membrane dynamics. This family consists of five isoforms, which are distributed in various tissues. Recent studies have shown that Endophilin regulates diseases pathogenesis, including neurodegenerative diseases, tumors, cardiovascular diseases, and autoimmune diseases. In vivo, it regulates different biological functions such as vesicle endocytosis, mitochondrial morphological changes, apoptosis and autophagosome formation. Functional studies confirmed the role of Endophilin in development and progression of these diseases. In this study, we have comprehensively discussed the complex function of Endophilin and how the family contributes to diseases development. It is hoped that this study will provide new ideas for targeting Endophilin in diseases.

Abstract
Highly homologous E3 ubiquitin ligases, Cbl and Cbl-b, mediate ubiquitination of EGF receptor (EGFR), leading to its endocytosis and lysosomal degradation. Cbl and Cbl-b, are thought to function in a redundant manner by binding directly to phosphorylated Y1045 (pY1045) of EGFR and indirectly via the Grb2 adaptor. Unexpectedly, we found that inducible expression of Cbl or Cbl-b mutants lacking the E3 ligase activity but fully capable of EGFR binding does not significantly affect EGFR ubiquitination and endocytosis in human oral squamous cell carcinoma (HSC3) cells which endogenously express Cbl-b at a relatively high level. Each endogenous Cbl species remained associated with ligand-activated EGFR in the presence of an overexpressed counterpart species or its mutant, although Cbl-b overexpression partially decreased Cbl association with EGFR. Binding to pY1045 was the preferential mode for Cbl-b:EGFR interaction, whereas Cbl relied mainly on the Grb2-dependent mechanism. Overexpression of the E3-dead mutant of Cbl-b slowed down EGF-induced degradation of active EGFR, while this mutant and a similar mutant of Cbl did not significantly affect MAPK/ERK1/2 activity. EGF-guided chemotaxis migration of HSC3 cells was diminished by overexpression of the E3-dead Cbl-b mutant but was not significantly affected by the E3-dead Cbl mutant. By contrast, the inhibitory effect of the same Cbl mutant on the migration of OSC-19 cells expressing low Cbl-b levels was substantially stronger than that of the Cbl-b mutant. Altogether, our data demonstrate that Cbl and Cbl-b may operate independently through different modes of EGFR binding to jointly control receptor ubiquitination, endocytic trafficking, and signaling.

Abstract
After endocytosis, many plasma membrane components are recycled via membrane tubules that emerge from early endosomes to form recycling endosomes, eventually leading to their return to the plasma membrane. We previously showed that Syndapin/PACSIN-family protein SDPN-1 is required in vivo for basolateral endocytic recycling in the C. elegans intestine. Here, we document an interaction between the SDPN-1 SH3 domain and a target sequence in PXF-1/PDZ-GEF1/RAPGEF2, a known exchange factor for Rap-GTPases. We found that endogenous mutations engineered into the SDPN-1 SH3 domain, or its binding site in the PXF-1 protein, interfere with recycling in vivo, as does the loss of the PXF-1 target RAP-1. In some contexts, Rap-GTPases negatively regulate RhoA activity, suggesting a potential for Syndapin to regulate RhoA. Our results indicate that in the C. elegans intestine, RHO-1/RhoA is enriched on SDPN-1- and RAP-1-positive endosomes, and the loss of SDPN-1 or RAP-1 elevates RHO-1(GTP) levels on intestinal endosomes. Furthermore, we found that depletion of RHO-1 suppressed sdpn-1 mutant recycling defects, indicating that control of RHO-1 activity is a key mechanism by which SDPN-1 acts to promote endocytic recycling. RHO-1/RhoA is well known for controlling actomyosin contraction cycles, although little is known about the effects of non-muscle myosin II on endosomes. Our analysis found that non-muscle myosin II is enriched on SDPN-1-positive endosomes, with two non-muscle myosin II heavy-chain isoforms acting in apparent opposition. Depletion of nmy-2 inhibited recycling like sdpn-1 mutants, whereas depletion of nmy-1 suppressed sdpn-1 mutant recycling defects, indicating that actomyosin contractility controls recycling endosome function.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE Endocytosis is a process vital to angiogenesis and vascular homeostasis. In pathologies where supraphysiological growth factor signaling underlies disease etiology, such as in diabetic retinopathy and solid tumors, strategies to limit chronic growth factor signaling by way of blunting endocytic processes have been shown to have tremendous clinical value. ADP ribosylation factor 6 (Arf6) is a small GTPase that promotes the assembly of actin necessary for clathrin-mediated and clathrin-independent endocytosis. In its absence, growth factor signaling is greatly diminished, which has been shown to ameliorate pathological signaling input in diseased vasculature. However, it is less clear if there are bystander effects related to loss of Arf6 on angiogenic behaviors. Our goal was to provide an analysis of Arf6's function in angiogenic endothelium, focusing on its role in actin and endocytosis as well as sprouting morphogenesis. METHODS Primary endothelial cells were cultured in both 2D and 3D environments. Here, endothelial cells were fixed and stained for various proteins or transfected with fluorescently-tagged constructs for live-cell imaging. RESULTS We found that Arf6 localized to both filamentous actin and sites of endocytosis in two-dimensional culture. Loss of Arf6 distorted both apicobasal polarity and reduced the total cellular filamentous actin content, which may be the primary driver underlying gross sprouting dysmorphogenesis in its absence. CONCLUSIONS Our findings highlight that endothelial Arf6 is a potent mediator of both actin regulation and endocytosis and is required for proper sprout formation.

Abstract
Clathrin-dependent endocytosis is a key process for secretory cells, in which molecules on the plasma membrane are both degraded and recycled in a stimulus-dependent manner. There are many reports showing that disruption of endocytosis is involved in the onset of various diseases. Recently, it has been reported that such disruption in pancreatic β-cells causes impaired insulin secretion and might be associated with the pathology of diabetes mellitus. Compared with exocytosis, there are few reports on the molecular mechanism of endocytosis in pancreatic β-cells. We previously reported that GDP-bound Rab27a regulates endocytosis through its GDP-dependent effectors after insulin secretion. In this study, we identified heat shock protein family A member 8 (HSPA8) as a novel interacting protein for GDP-bound Rab27a. HSPA8 directly bound GDP-bound Rab27a via the β2 region of its substrate binding domain (SBD). The β2 fragment was capable of inhibiting the interaction between HSPA8 and GDP-bound Rab27a, and suppressed glucose-induced clathrin-dependent endocytosis in pancreatic β-cells. The region also affected clathrin dynamics on purified clathrin-coated vesicles (CCVs). These results suggest that the interaction between GDP-bound Rab27a and HSPA8 regulates clathrin disassembly from CCVs and subsequent vesicle transport. The regulatory stages in endocytosis by HSPA8 differ from those for other GDP-bound Rab27a effectors. This study shows that GDP-bound Rab27a dominantly regulates each stage in glucose-induced endocytosis through its specific effectors in pancreatic β-cells.

Parkinson's disease (PD) is an age-related chronic neurological disorder, mainly characterized by the pathological feature of α-synuclein (α-syn) aggregation, with the exact disease pathogenesis unclear. During the onset and progression of PD, synaptic dysfunction, including dysregulation of axonal transport, impaired exocytosis, and endocytosis are identified as crucial events of PD pathogenesis. It has been reported that over-expression of α-syn impairs clathrin-mediated endocytosis (CME) in the synapses. However, the underlying mechanisms still needs to be explored. In this study, we investigated the molecular events underlying the synaptic dysfunction caused by over-expression of wild-type human α-syn and its mutant form, involving series of proteins participating in CME. We found that excessive human α-syn causes impaired fission and uncoating of clathrin-coated vesicles during synaptic vesicle recycling, leading to reduced clustering of synaptic vesicles near the active zone and increased size of plasma membrane and number of endocytic intermediates. Furthermore, over-expressed human α-syn induced changes of CME-associated proteins, among which synaptojanin1 (SYNJ1) showed significant reduction in various brain regions. Over-expression of SYNJ1 in primary hippocampal neurons from α-syn transgenic mice recovered the synaptic vesicle density, clustering and endocytosis. Using fluorescence-conjugated transferrin, we demonstrated that SYNJ1 re-boosted the CME activity by restoring the phosphatidylinositol-4,5-bisphosphate homeostasis. Our data suggested that over-expression of α-syn disrupts synaptic function through interfering with vesicle recycling, which could be alleviated by re-availing of SYNJ1. Our study unrevealed a molecular mechanism of the synaptic dysfunction in PD pathogenesis and provided a potential therapeutic target for treating PD.

Abstract
Selection and internalization of cargo via clathrin-mediated endocytosis requires adaptor protein complexes. One complex, AP-2, acts during cargo selection at the plasma membrane. African trypanosomes lack all components of the AP-2 complex, except for a recently identified orthologue of the AP-2-associated protein kinase 1, AAK1. In characterized eukaryotes, AAK1 phosphorylates the μ2 subunit of the AP-2 complex to enhance cargo recognition and uptake into clathrin-coated vesicles. Here, we show that kinetoplastids encode not one, but two AAK1 orthologues: one (AAK1L2) is absent from salivarian trypanosomes, while the other (AAK1L1) lacks important kinase-specific residues in a range of trypanosomes. These AAK1L1 and AAK1L2 novelties reinforce suggestions of functional divergence in endocytic uptake within salivarian trypanosomes. Despite this, we show that AAK1L1 null mutant Trypanosoma brucei, while viable, display slowed proliferation, morphological abnormalities including swelling of the flagellar pocket, and altered cargo uptake. In summary, our data suggest an unconventional role for a putative pseudokinase during endocytosis and/or vesicular trafficking in T. brucei, independent of AP-2.

Abstract
Urinary bladder cancer can be treated by intravesical application of therapeutic agents, but the specific targeting of cancer urothelial cells and the endocytotic pathways of the agents are not known. During carcinogenesis, the superficial urothelial cells exhibit changes in sugar residues on the apical plasma membranes. This can be exploited for selective targeting from the luminal side of the bladder. Here we show that the plant lectins Jacalin (from Artocarpus integrifolia), ACA (from Amaranthus caudatus) and DSA (from Datura stramonium) selectively bind to the apical plasma membrane of low- (RT4) and high-grade (T24) cancer urothelial cells in vitro and urothelial tumours ex vivo. The amount of lectin binding was significantly different between RT4 and T24 cells. Endocytosis of lectins was observed only in cancer urothelial cells and not in normal urothelial cells. Transmission electron microscopy analysis showed macropinosomes, endosome-like vesicles and multivesicular bodies filled with lectins in RT4 and T24 cells and also in cells of urothelial tumours ex vivo. Endocytosis of Jacalin and ACA in cancer cells was decreased in vitro after addition of inhibitor of macropinocytosis 5-(N-ethyl-N-isopropyl) amiloride (EIPA) and increased after stimulation of macropinocytosis with epidermal growth factor (EGF). Clathrin, caveolin and flotillin did not colocalise with lectins. These results confirm that the predominant mechanism of lectin endocytosis in cancer urothelial cells is macropinocytosis. Therefore, we propose that lectins in combination with conjugated therapeutic agents are promising tools for improved intravesical therapy by targeting cancer cells.

Abstract
Clathrin-mediated vesicular formation and trafficking are responsible for molecular cargo transport and signal transduction among organelles. Our previous study shows that CHLOROPLAST VESICULATION (CV)-containing vesicles (CVVs) are generated from chloroplasts for chloroplast degradation under abiotic stress. Here, we show that CV interacts with the clathrin heavy chain (CHC) and induces vesicle budding toward the cytosol from the chloroplast inner envelope membrane. In the defective mutants of CHC2 and the dynamin-encoding DRP1A, CVV budding and releasing from chloroplast are impeded. The mutations of CHC2 inhibit CV-induced chloroplast degradation and hypersensitivity to water stress. Moreover, CV-CHC2 interaction is impaired by the oxidized GLYCERALDEHYDE-3-PHOSPHATE DEHYDROGENASE (GAPC). GAPC1 overexpression suppresses CV-mediated chloroplast degradation and hypersensitivity to water stress, while CV silencing alleviates the hypersensitivity of the gapc1gapc2 plant to water stress. Together, our work identifies a pathway of clathrin-assisted CVV budding outward from chloroplast, which is involved in chloroplast degradation and stress response.

Abstract
All endocytosis and exocytosis in the African trypanosome Trypanosoma brucei occurs at a single subdomain of the plasma membrane. This subdomain, the flagellar pocket, is a small vase-shaped invagination containing the root of the single flagellum of the cell. Several cytoskeleton-associated multiprotein complexes are coiled around the neck of the flagellar pocket on its cytoplasmic face. One of these, the hook complex, was proposed to affect macromolecule entry into the flagellar pocket lumen. In previous work, knockdown of T. brucei (Tb)MORN1, a hook complex component, resulted in larger cargo being unable to enter the flagellar pocket. In this study, the hook complex component TbSmee1 was characterised in bloodstream form T. brucei and found to be essential for cell viability. TbSmee1 knockdown resulted in flagellar pocket enlargement and impaired access to the flagellar pocket membrane by surface-bound cargo, similar to depletion of TbMORN1. Unexpectedly, inhibition of endocytosis by knockdown of clathrin phenocopied TbSmee1 knockdown, suggesting that endocytic activity itself is a prerequisite for the entry of surface-bound cargo into the flagellar pocket.

Abstract
Endothelial fenestrae are transcellular pores separated by diaphragms formed by plasmalemma vesicle-associated proteins (PLVAP) and function as channels for peptide hormones and other substances. Caveola, a key regulator of clathrin-independent endocytosis, may be involved in the invagination and fusion of plasma membranes, which are essential for fenestra formation. In this study, we first found that caveolin-1 and -2, the major components of caveolae, was localized in fenestrated endothelial cells in the anterior lobe of the rat pituitary by immunohistochemistry. As we also observed caveolae in the endothelial cells of the anterior lobe of the rat pituitary by transmission electron microscopy, we studied the relationship between the caveolae-mediated endocytosis pathway and fenestrae structure in cultured endothelial cells isolated from the anterior lobe of the rat pituitary (CECAL) by immunofluorescence staining and scanning electron microscopy. The inhibition of caveolae-mediated endocytosis by genistein enlarged the PLVAP-positive oval-shaped structure that represented the sieve plate and induced the formation of a doughnut-shaped bulge around the fenestra in CECAL. In contrast, the acceleration of caveolae-mediated endocytosis by okadaic acid induced the diffusion of PLVAP-positive signals in the cytoplasm and reduced the number of fenestrae in CECAL. These results indicate that the caveolae-mediated endocytosis pathway is involved in the fenestra homeostasis in the fenestrated endothelial cells of the rat pituitary.

Abstract
Proximal tubule (PT) cells retrieve albumin and a broad array of other ligands from the glomerular ultrafiltrate. Efficient uptake of albumin requires PT expression of both megalin and cubilin receptors. Although most proteins engage cubilin selectively, megalin is required to maintain robust flux through the apical endocytic pathway. Receptor-associated protein (RAP) is a chaperone that directs megalin to the cell surface, and recombinant RAP dramatically inhibits the uptake of numerous megalin and cubilin ligands. The mechanism by which this occurs has been suggested to involve competitive inhibition of ligand binding and/or conformational changes in megalin that prevent interaction with ligands and/or with cubilin. To discriminate between these possibilities, we determined the effect of RAP on endocytosis of albumin, which binds to cubilin and megalin receptors with high and low affinity, respectively. Uptake was quantified in opossum kidney (OK) cells and in megalin or cubilin (Cubn) knockout (KO) clones. Surprisingly, RAP inhibited fluid-phase uptake in addition to receptor-mediated uptake in OK cells and Cubn KO cells but had no effect on endocytosis when megalin was absent. The apparent Ki for RAP inhibition of albumin uptake was 10-fold higher in Cubn KO cells compared with parental OK cells. We conclude that in addition to its predicted high-affinity competition for ligand binding to megalin, the primary effect of RAP on PT cell endocytosis is to globally dampen megalin-dependent endocytic flux. Our data explain the complex effects of RAP on binding and uptake of filtered proteins and reveal a novel role in modulating endocytosis in PT cells.NEW & NOTEWORTHY Receptor-associated protein inhibits binding and uptake of all known endogenous ligands by megalin and cubilin receptors via unknown mechanism(s). Here, we took advantage of recently generated knockout cell lines to dissect the effect of this protein on megalin- and cubilin-mediated endocytosis. Our study reveals a novel role for receptor-associated protein in blocking megalin-stimulated endocytic uptake of fluid-phase markers and receptor-bound ligands in proximal tubule cells in addition to its direct effect on ligand binding to megalin receptors.

Abstract
Adequate perfusion of cerebral tissues, which is necessary for the preservation of optimal brain health, depends on insulin signaling within brain endothelial cells. Proper insulin signaling relies on the regulated internalization of insulin bound to the insulin receptor, a process which is disrupted by hyperinsulinemia via an unknown mechanism. Thus, the goal of this study was to characterize the impact of hyperinsulinemia on the regulation of molecular targets involved in cerebral blood flow and insulin receptor internalization into brain endothelial cells. The phosphorylation of molecular targets associated with cerebral blood flow and insulin receptor internalization was assessed in hyperinsulinemic brain endothelial cells. Insulin receptor uptake into cells was also examined in the setting of endocytosis blockade. Our data demonstrate that hyperinsulinemia impairs the activation of endothelial nitric oxide synthase. These data correspond with an impairment in clathrin-mediated endocytosis of the insulin receptor and dysregulated phosphorylation of key internalization effectors. We conclude that hyperinsulinemia alters the phosphorylation of molecular targets involved in clathrin-mediated endocytosis, disrupts signaling through the insulin receptor, and hinders the capacity for blood flow regulation by brain endothelial cells.

Abstract
Despite their significance in receptor-mediated internalization and continued signal transduction in cells, early/sorting endosomes (EE/SE) remain incompletely characterized, with many outstanding questions that surround the dynamics of their size and number. While several studies have reported increases in EE/SE size and number resulting from endocytic events, few studies have addressed such dynamics in a methodological and quantitative manner. Herein we apply quantitative fluorescence microscopy to measure the size and number of EE/SE upon internalization of two different ligands: transferrin and epidermal growth factor. Additionally, we used siRNA knock-down to determine the involvement of 5 different endosomal RAB proteins (RAB4, RAB5, RAB8A, RAB10 and RAB11A) in EE/SE dynamics. Our study provides new information on the dynamics of endosomes during endocytosis, an important reference for researchers studying receptor-mediated internalization and endocytic events.

Abstract
The epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) is a central regulator of cell physiology that is stimulated by multiple distinct ligands. Although ligands bind to EGFR while the receptor is exposed on the plasma membrane, EGFR incorporation into endosomes following receptor internalization is an important aspect of EGFR signaling, with EGFR internalization behavior dependent upon the type of ligand bound. We develop quantitative modeling for EGFR recruitment to and internalization from clathrin domains, focusing on how internalization competes with ligand unbinding from EGFR. We develop two model versions: a kinetic model with EGFR behavior described as transitions between discrete states and a spatial model with EGFR diffusion to circular clathrin domains. We find that a combination of spatial and kinetic proofreading leads to enhanced EGFR internalization ratios in comparison to unbinding differences between ligand types. Various stages of the EGFR internalization process, including recruitment to and internalization from clathrin domains, modulate the internalization differences between receptors bound to different ligands. Our results indicate that following ligand binding, EGFR may encounter multiple clathrin domains before successful recruitment and internalization. The quantitative modeling we have developed describes competition between EGFR internalization and ligand unbinding and the resulting proofreading.

Abstract
Amyloid precursor protein (APP) internalization via clathrin-/dynamin-mediated endocytosis (CME) mediated by its YENPTY motif into endosomes containing β-secretase is proposed to be critical for amyloid-beta (Aβ) production. Here, we show that somatodendritic APP internalization in primary rodent neurons is not blocked by inhibiting dynamin or mutating the YENPTY motif, in contrast to non-neuronal cell lines. These phenomena, confirmed in induced human neurons under dynamin inhibition, occur during basal conditions and chemical long-term-depression stimulus, pointing to a clathrin-independent internalization pathway for somatodendritic APP. Mutating the YENPTY motif does not alter APP recycling, degradation, or endolysosomal colocalization. However, both dynamin inhibition and the YENPTY mutant significantly decrease secreted Aβ in neurons, suggesting that internalized somatodendritic APP may not constitute a major source of Aβ. Interestingly, like APP, somatodendritic low-density lipoprotein receptor (LDLR) internalization does not require its CME motif. These results highlight intriguing differences in neuronal internalization pathways and refine our understanding of Aβ production and secretion.

Abstract
Phosphatidylinositol 4-kinase IIα (PI4KIIα) generates essential phospholipids and is a cargo for endosomal adaptor proteins. Activity-dependent bulk endocytosis (ADBE) is the dominant synaptic vesicle endocytosis mode during high neuronal activity and is sustained by glycogen synthase kinase 3β (GSK3β) activity. We reveal the GSK3β substrate PI4KIIα is essential for ADBE via its depletion in primary neuronal cultures. Kinase-dead PI4KIIα rescues ADBE in these neurons but not a phosphomimetic form mutated at the GSK3β site, Ser-47. Ser-47 phosphomimetic peptides inhibit ADBE in a dominant-negative manner, confirming that Ser-47 phosphorylation is essential for ADBE. Phosphomimetic PI4KIIα interacts with a specific cohort of presynaptic molecules, two of which, AGAP2 and CAMKV, are also essential for ADBE when depleted in neurons. Thus, PI4KIIα is a GSK3β-dependent interaction hub that silos essential ADBE molecules for liberation during neuronal activity.

Abstract
The kidney proximal tubule (PT) elaborates a uniquely high-capacity apical endocytic pathway to retrieve albumin and other proteins that escape the glomerular filtration barrier. Megalin and cubilin/amnionless (CUBAM) receptors engage Dab2 in these cells to mediate clathrin-dependent uptake of filtered ligands. Knockout of megalin or Dab2 profoundly inhibits apical endocytosis and is believed to atrophy the endocytic pathway. We generated CRISPR/Cas9 knockout (KO) clones lacking cubilin, megalin, or Dab2 expression in highly differentiated PT cells and determined the impact on albumin internalization and endocytic pathway function. KO of each component had different effects on the concentration dependence of albumin uptake as well its distribution within PT cells. Reduced uptake of a fluid phase marker was also observed, with megalin KO cells having the most dramatic decline. Surprisingly, protein levels and distribution of key endocytic proteins were preserved in KO PT cell lines and in megalin KO mice, despite the reduced endocytic activity. Our data highlight specific functions of megalin, cubilin, and Dab2 in apical endocytosis and demonstrate that these proteins drive endocytic flux without compromising the physical integrity of the apical endocytic pathway. Our studies suggest a novel model to explain how these components coordinate endocytic uptake in PT cells.

Abstract
Influenza A virus (IAV) enters host cells mostly through clathrin-dependent receptor-mediated endocytosis. A single bona fide entry receptor protein supporting this entry mechanism remains elusive. Here we performed proximity ligation of biotin to host cell surface proteins in the vicinity of attached trimeric hemagglutinin-HRP and characterized biotinylated targets using mass spectrometry. This approach identified transferrin receptor 1 (TfR1) as a candidate entry protein. Genetic gain-of-function and loss-of-function experiments, as well as in vitro and in vivo chemical inhibition, confirmed the functional involvement of TfR1 in IAV entry. Recycling deficient mutants of TfR1 do not support entry, indicating that TfR1 recycling is essential for this function. The binding of virions to TfR1 via sialic acids confirmed its role as a directly acting entry factor, but unexpectedly even headless TfR1 promoted IAV particle uptake in trans. TIRF microscopy localized the entering virus-like particles in the vicinity of TfR1. Our data identify TfR1 recycling as a revolving door mechanism exploited by IAV to enter host cells.

Abstract
Inflammation can impair intestinal barrier, while increased epithelial permeability can lead to inflammation. In this study, we found that the expression of Tspan8, a tetraspanin expressed specifically in epithelial cells, is downregulated in mouse model of ulcerative disease (UC) but correlated with those of cell-cell junction components, such as claudins and E-cadherin, suggesting that Tspan8 supports intestinal epithelial barrier. Tspan8 removal increases intestinal epithelial permeability and upregulates IFN-γ-Stat1 signaling. We also demonstrated that Tspan8 coalesces with lipid rafts and facilitates IFNγ-R1 localization at or near lipid rafts. As IFN-γ induces its receptor undergoing clathrin- or lipid raft-dependent endocytosis and IFN-γR endocytosis plays an important role in Jak-Stat1 signaling, our analysis on IFN-γR endocytosis revealed that Tspan8 silencing impairs lipid raft-mediated but promotes clathrin-mediated endocytosis of IFN-γR1, leading to increased Stat1 signaling. These changes in IFN-γR1 endocytosis upon Tspan8 silencing correlates with fewer lipid raft component GM1 at the cell surface and more clathrin heavy chain in the cells. Our findings indicate that Tspan8 determines the IFN-γR1 endocytosis route, to restrain Stat1 signaling, stabilize intestine epithelium, and subsequently prevent intestine from inflammation. Our finding also implies that Tspan8 is needed for proper endocytosis through lipid rafts.

Abstract
Pollen tube polar growth is a key cellular process during plant fertilization and is regulated by tip-focused exocytosis and endocytosis. However, the spatiotemporal dynamics and localizations of apical exocytosis and endocytosis in the tip region are still a matter of debate. Here, we use a refined spinning-disk confocal microscope coupled with fluorescence recovery after photobleaching for sustained live imaging and quantitative analysis of rapid vesicular activities in growing pollen tube tips. We traced and analyzed the occurrence site of exocytic plasma membrane-targeting of Arabidopsis secretory carrier membrane protein 4 and its subsequent endocytosis in tobacco pollen tube tips. We demonstrated that the pollen tube apex is the site for both vesicle polar exocytic fusion and endocytosis to take place. In addition, we disrupted either tip-focused exocytosis or endocytosis and found that their dynamic activities are closely correlated with one another basing on the spatial organization of actin fringe. Collectively, our findings attempt to propose a new exocytosis and endocytosis-coordinated yin-yang working model underlying the apical membrane organization and dynamics during pollen tube tip growth.

Abstract
Intracellular vesicles (IVs) are formed through endocytosis of vesicles into cytoplasm. IV formation is involved in activating various signal pathways through permeabilization of IV membranes and the formation of endosomes and lysosomes. A method named chromophore-assisted laser inactivation (CALI) is applied to study the formation of IVs and the materials in controlling IV regulation. CALI is an imaging-based photodynamic methodology to study the signaling pathway induced by membrane permeabilization. The method allows spatiotemporal manipulation of the selected organelle to be permeabilized in a cell. The CALI method has been applied to observe and monitor specific molecules through the permeabilization of endosomes and lysosomes. The membrane rupture of IVs is known to selectively recruit glycan-binding proteins, such as galectin-3. Here, the protocol describes the induction of IV rupture by AlPcS2a and the use of galectin-3 as a marker to label impaired lysosomes, which is useful in studying the downstream effects of IV membrane rupture and their downstream effects under various situations.

Abstract
Cyclin-dependent kinase-like 5 (CDKL5) deficiency disorder (CDD) is a severe early-onset epileptic encephalopathy resulting mainly from de novo mutations in the X-linked CDKL5 gene. To determine whether loss of presynaptic CDKL5 function contributes to CDD, we examined synaptic vesicle (SV) recycling in primary hippocampal neurons generated from Cdkl5 knockout rat males. Using a genetically encoded reporter, we revealed that CDKL5 is selectively required for efficient SV endocytosis. We showed that CDKL5 kinase activity is both necessary and sufficient for optimal SV endocytosis, since kinase-inactive mutations failed to correct endocytosis in Cdkl5 knockout neurons, whereas the isolated CDKL5 kinase domain fully restored SV endocytosis kinetics. Finally, we demonstrated that CDKL5-mediated phosphorylation of amphiphysin 1, a putative presynaptic target, is not required for CDKL5-dependent control of SV endocytosis. Overall, our findings reveal a key presynaptic role for CDKL5 kinase activity and enhance our insight into how its dysfunction may culminate in CDD.SIGNIFICANCE STATEMENT Loss of cyclin-dependent kinase like 5 (CDKL5) function is a leading cause of monogenic childhood epileptic encephalopathy. However, information regarding its biological role is scarce. In this study, we reveal a selective presynaptic role for CDKL5 in synaptic vesicle endocytosis and that its protein kinase activity is both necessary and sufficient for this role. The isolated protein kinase domain is sufficient to correct this loss of function, which may facilitate future gene therapy strategies if presynaptic dysfunction is proven to be central to the disorder. It also reveals that a CDKL5-specific substrate is located at the presynapse, the phosphorylation of which is required for optimal SV endocytosis.

Abstract
Classical dynamins are best understood for their ability to generate vesicles by membrane fission. During clathrin-mediated endocytosis (CME), dynamin is recruited to the membrane through multivalent protein and lipid interactions between its proline-rich domain (PRD) with SRC Homology 3 (SH3) domains in endocytic proteins and its pleckstrin-homology domain (PHD) with membrane lipids. Variable loops (VL) in the PHD bind lipids and partially insert into the membrane thereby anchoring the PHD to the membrane. Recent molecular dynamics (MD) simulations reveal a novel VL4 that interacts with the membrane. Importantly, a missense mutation that reduces VL4 hydrophobicity is linked to an autosomal dominant form of Charcot-Marie-Tooth (CMT) neuropathy. We analyzed the orientation and function of the VL4 to mechanistically link data from simulations with the CMT neuropathy. Structural modeling of PHDs in the cryo-electron microscopy (cryo-EM) cryoEM map of the membrane-bound dynamin polymer confirms VL4 as a membrane-interacting loop. In assays that rely solely on lipid-based membrane recruitment, VL4 mutants with reduced hydrophobicity showed an acute membrane curvature-dependent binding and a catalytic defect in fission. Remarkably, in assays that mimic a physiological multivalent lipid- and protein-based recruitment, VL4 mutants were completely defective in fission across a range of membrane curvatures. Importantly, expression of these mutants in cells inhibited CME, consistent with the autosomal dominant phenotype associated with the CMT neuropathy. Together, our results emphasize the significance of finely tuned lipid and protein interactions for efficient dynamin function.

Abstract
Lithium is a mood stabilizer broadly used to prevent and treat symptoms of mania and depression in people with bipolar disorder (BD). Little is known, however, about its mode of action. Here, we analyzed the impact of lithium on synaptic vesicle (SV) cycling at presynaptic terminals releasing glutamate, a neurotransmitter previously implicated in BD and other neuropsychiatric conditions. We used the pHluorin-based synaptic tracer vGpH and a fully automated image processing pipeline to quantify the effect of lithium on both SV exocytosis and endocytosis in hippocampal neurons. We found that lithium selectively reduces SV exocytic rates during electrical stimulation, and markedly slows down SV recycling post-stimulation. Analysis of single-bouton responses revealed the existence of functionally distinct excitatory synapses with varying sensitivity to lithium-some terminals show responses similar to untreated cells, while others are markedly impaired in their ability to recycle SVs. While the cause of this heterogeneity is unclear, these data indicate that lithium interacts with the SV machinery and influences glutamate release in a large fraction of excitatory synapses. Together, our findings show that lithium down modulates SV cycling, an effect consistent with clinical reports indicating hyperactivation of glutamate neurotransmission in BD.

Abstract
The ability of cells to manage consequences of exogenous proteotoxicity is key to cellular homeostasis. While a plethora of well-characterised machinery aids intracellular proteostasis, mechanisms involved in the response to denaturation of extracellular proteins remain elusive. Here we show that aggregation of protein ectodomains triggers their endocytosis via a macroendocytic route, and subsequent lysosomal degradation. Using ERBB2/HER2-specific antibodies we reveal that their cross-linking ability triggers specific and fast endocytosis of the receptor, independent of clathrin and dynamin. Upon aggregation, canonical clathrin-dependent cargoes are redirected into the aggregation-dependent endocytosis (ADE) pathway. ADE is an actin-driven process, which morphologically resembles macropinocytosis. Physical and chemical stress-induced aggregation of surface proteins also triggers ADE, facilitating their degradation in the lysosome. This study pinpoints aggregation of extracellular domains as a trigger for rapid uptake and lysosomal clearance which besides its proteostatic function has potential implications for the uptake of pathological protein aggregates and antibody-based therapies.

Abstract
Inefficient endosomal escape remains the primary barrier to the broad application of oligonucleotide therapeutics. Liver uptake after systemic administration is sufficiently robust that a therapeutic effect can be achieved but targeting extrahepatic tissues remains challenging. Prior attempts to improve oligonucleotide activity using small molecules that increase the leakiness of endosomes have failed due to unacceptable toxicity. Here, we show that the well-tolerated and orally bioavailable synthetic sphingolipid analog, SH-BC-893, increases the activity of antisense oligonucleotides (ASOs) and small interfering RNAs (siRNAs) up to 200-fold in vitro without permeabilizing endosomes. SH-BC-893 treatment trapped endocytosed oligonucleotides within extra-lysosomal compartments thought to be more permeable due to frequent membrane fission and fusion events. Simultaneous disruption of ARF6-dependent endocytic recycling and PIKfyve-dependent lysosomal fusion was necessary and sufficient for SH-BC-893 to increase non-lysosomal oligonucleotide levels and enhance their activity. In mice, oral administration of SH-BC-893 increased ASO potency in the liver by 15-fold without toxicity. More importantly, SH-BC-893 enabled target RNA knockdown in the CNS and lungs of mice treated subcutaneously with cholesterol-functionalized duplexed oligonucleotides or unmodified ASOs, respectively. Together, these results establish the feasibility of using a small molecule that disrupts endolysosomal trafficking to improve the activity of oligonucleotides in extrahepatic tissues.

Abstract
Phosphatidylserine (PS) is a constituent of the cell membrane, being especially abundant in the cytoplasmic leaflet, and plays important roles in a number of cellular functions, including the formation of cell polarity and intracellular vesicle transport. Several studies in mammalian cells have suggested the role of PS in retrograde membrane traffic through endosomes, but in yeast, where PS is localized primarily at the plasma membrane (PM), the role in intracellular organelles remains unclear. Additionally, it is reported that polarized endocytic site formation is defective in PS-depleted yeast cells, but the role in the endocytic machinery has not been well understood. In this study, to clarify the role of PS in the endocytic pathway, we analyzed the effect of PS depletion on endocytic internalization and post-endocytic transport. We demonstrated that in cell lacking the PS synthase Cho1p (cho1Δ cell), binding and internalization of mating pheromone α-factor into the cell was severely impaired. Interestingly, the processes of endocytosis were mostly unaffected, but protein transport from the trans-Golgi network (TGN) to the PM was defective and localization of cell surface proteins was severely impaired in cho1Δ cells. We also showed that PS accumulated in intracellular compartments in cells lacking Rcy1p and Vps52p, both of which are implicated in endosome-to-PM transport via the TGN, and that the number of Snx4p-residing endosomes was increased in cho1Δ cells. These results suggest that PS plays a crucial role in the transport and localization of cell surface membrane proteins.Key words: phosphatidylserine, endocytosis, recycling, vesicle transport.

Abstract
Ubiquitin modification is known to regulate endocytic trafficking of many different types of cargo in eukaryotic cells, but it can be challenging to determine what role, if any, ubiquitin plays in the trafficking of a novel or uncharacterized endocytic cargo. Here, we describe a useful approach that leverages fusion to deubiquitinase (DUB) catalytic domains to explore the role ubiquitin plays in endocytic trafficking. This approach can be applied to the analysis of many different endocytic cargos in different cell types, and it can also be used to study linkage specificity in endocytic trafficking. Several different trafficking assays are described to illustrate the broad utility of this "DUB fusion" approach.

Abstract
Endocytosis is a dynamic cellular process that actively transports particles into a cell. Late endosome fusion with the lysosome is a crucial step in the delivery of newly synthesized lysosomal proteins and endocytosed cargo for degradation. Disturbing this step in neurons is associated with neurological disorders. Thus, studying endosome-lysosome fusion in neurons will provide new insight into the mechanisms of these diseases and open new possibilities for therapeutic treatment. However, measuring endosome-lysosome fusion is challenging and time consuming, which limits the research in this area. Here we developed a high throughput method using pH-insensitive dye-conjugated dextrans and the Opera Phenix® High Content Screening System. By using this method, we successfully separated endosomes and lysosomes in neurons, and time-lapse images were collected to capture endosome-lysosome fusion events in hundreds of cells. Both assay set-up and analysis can be completed in an expeditious and efficient manner.

Abstract
Understanding the intestinal transport of particles is critical in several fields ranging from optimizing drug delivery systems to capturing health risks from the increased presence of nano- and micro-sized particles in human environment. While Caco-2 cell monolayers grown on permeable supports are the traditional in vitro model used to probe intestinal absorption of dissolved molecules, they fail to recapitulate the transcytotic activity of polarized enterocytes. Here, an intestine-on-chip model is combined with in silico modeling to demonstrate that the rate of particle transcytosis is ≈350× higher across Caco-2 cell monolayers exposed to fluid shear stress compared to Caco-2 cells in standard "static" configuration. This relates to profound phenotypical alterations and highly polarized state of cells grown under mechanical stimulation and it is shown that transcytosis in the microphysiological model is energy-dependent and involves both clathrin and macropinocytosis mediated endocytic pathways. Finally, it is demonstrated that the increased rate of transcytosis through cells exposed to flow is explained by a higher rate of internal particle transport (i.e., vesicular cellular trafficking and basolateral exocytosis), rather than a change in apical uptake (i.e., binding and endocytosis). Taken together, the findings have important implications for addressing research questions concerning intestinal transport of engineered and environmental particles.

Abstract
Membrane-enclosed transport carriers sort biological molecules between stations in the cell in a dynamic process that is fundamental to the physiology of eukaryotic organisms. While much is known about the formation and release of carriers from specific intracellular membranes, the mechanism of carrier formation from the recycling endosome, a compartment central to cellular signaling, remains to be resolved. In Caenorhabditis elegans, formation of transport carriers from the recycling endosome requires the dynamin-like, Eps15-homology domain (EHD) protein, RME-1, functioning with the Bin/Amphiphysin/Rvs (N-BAR) domain protein, AMPH-1. Here we show, using a free-solution single-particle technique known as burst analysis spectroscopy (BAS), that AMPH-1 alone creates small, tubular-vesicular products from large, unilamellar vesicles by membrane fission. Membrane fission requires the amphipathic H0 helix of AMPH-1 and is slowed in the presence of RME-1. Unexpectedly, AMPH-1-induced membrane fission is stimulated in the presence of GTP. Furthermore, the GTP-stimulated membrane fission activity seen for AMPH-1 is recapitulated by the heterodimeric N-BAR amphiphysin protein from yeast, Rvs161/167p, strongly suggesting that GTP-stimulated membrane fission is a general property of this important class of N-BAR proteins.

Abstract
Emergence of SARS-CoV-2 variants warrants sustainable efforts to upgrade both the diagnostic and therapeutic protocols. Understanding the details of cellular and molecular basis of the virus-host cell interaction is essential for developing variant-independent therapeutic options. The internalization of SARS-CoV-2, into lung epithelial cells, is mediated by endocytosis, especially clathrin-mediated endocytosis (CME). Although vaccination is the gold standard strategy against viral infection, selective inhibition of endocytic proteins, complexes, and associated adaptor proteins may present a variant-independent therapeutic strategy. Although clathrin and/or dynamins are the most important proteins involved in CME, other endocytic mechanisms are clathrin and/or dynamin independent and rely on other proteins. Moreover, endocytosis implicates some subcellular structures, like plasma membrane, actin and lysosomes. Also, physiological conditions, such as pH and ion concentrations, represent an additional factor that mediates these events. Accordingly, endocytosis related proteins are potential targets for small molecules that inhibit endocytosis-mediated viral entry. This review summarizes the potential of using small molecules, targeting key proteins, participating in clathrin-dependent and -independent endocytosis, as variant-independent antiviral drugs against SARS-CoV-2 infection. The review takes two approaches. The first outlines the potential role of endocytic inhibitors in preventing endocytosis-mediated viral entry and its mechanism of action, whereas in the second computational analysis was implemented to investigate the selectivity of common inhibitors against endocytic proteins in SARS-CoV-2 endocytosis. The analysis revealed that remdesivir, methyl-β-cyclodextrin, rottlerin, and Bis-T can effectively inhibit clathrin, HMG-CoA reductase, actin, and dynamin I GTPase and are more potent in inhibiting SARS-CoV-2 than chloroquine. CME inhibitors for SARS-CoV-2 infection remain understudied.

Abstract
Receptor Tyrosine Kinase (RTK) endocytosis-dependent signalling drives cell proliferation and motility during development and adult homeostasis, but is dysregulated in diseases, including cancer. The recruitment of RTK signalling partners during endocytosis, specifically during recycling to the plasma membrane, is still unknown. Focusing on Fibroblast Growth Factor Receptor 2b (FGFR2b) recycling, we reveal FGFR signalling partners proximal to recycling endosomes by developing a Spatially Resolved Phosphoproteomics (SRP) approach based on APEX2-driven biotinylation followed by phosphorylated peptides enrichment. Combining this with traditional phosphoproteomics, bioinformatics, and targeted assays, we uncover that FGFR2b stimulated by its recycling ligand FGF10 activates mTOR-dependent signalling and ULK1 at the recycling endosomes, leading to autophagy suppression and cell survival. This adds to the growing importance of RTK recycling in orchestrating cell fate and suggests a therapeutically targetable vulnerability in ligand-responsive cancer cells. Integrating SRP with other systems biology approaches provides a powerful tool to spatially resolve cellular signalling.

Abstract
Biological systems are the sum of their dynamic three-dimensional (3D) parts. Therefore, it is critical to study biological structures in 3D and at high resolution to gain insights into their physiological functions. Electron microscopy of metal replicas of unroofed cells and isolated organelles has been a key technique to visualize intracellular structures at nanometer resolution. However, many of these methods require specialized equipment and personnel to complete them. Here, we present novel accessible methods to analyze biological structures in unroofed cells and biochemically isolated organelles in 3D and at nanometer resolution, focusing on Arabidopsis clathrin-coated vesicles (CCVs). While CCVs are essential trafficking organelles, their detailed structural information is lacking due to their poor preservation when observed via classical electron microscopy protocols experiments. First, we establish a method to visualize CCVs in unroofed cells using scanning transmission electron microscopy tomography, providing sufficient resolution to define the clathrin coat arrangements. Critically, the samples are prepared directly on electron microscopy grids, removing the requirement to use extremely corrosive acids, thereby enabling the use of this method in any electron microscopy lab. Secondly, we demonstrate that this standardized sample preparation allows the direct comparison of isolated CCV samples with those visualized in cells. Finally, to facilitate the high-throughput and robust screening of metal replicated samples, we provide a deep learning analysis method to screen the "pseudo 3D" morphologies of CCVs imaged with 2D modalities. Collectively, our work establishes accessible ways to examine the 3D structure of biological samples and provide novel insights into the structure of plant CCVs.

Abstract
The cells that comprise the proximal tubule (PT) are specialized for high-capacity apical endocytosis necessary to maintain a protein-free urine. Filtered proteins are reclaimed via receptor-mediated endocytosis facilitated by the multiligand receptors megalin and cubilin. Despite the importance of this pathway, we lack a detailed understanding of megalin trafficking kinetics and how they are regulated. Here, we utilized biochemical and quantitative imaging methods in a highly differentiated model of opossum kidney (OK) cells and in mouse kidney in vivo to develop mathematical models of megalin traffic. A preliminary model based on biochemically quantified kinetic parameters was refined by colocalization of megalin with individual apical endocytic compartment markers. Our model predicts that megalin is rapidly internalized, resulting in primarily intracellular distribution of the receptor at steady state. Moreover, our data show that early endosomes mature rapidly in PT cells and suggest that Rab11 is the primary mediator of apical recycling of megalin from maturing endocytic compartments. Apical recycling represents the rate-limiting component of endocytic traffic, suggesting that this step has the largest impact in determining the endocytic capacity of PT cells. Adaptation of our model to the S1 segment of mouse PT using colocalization data obtained in kidney sections confirms basic aspects of our model and suggests that our OK cell model largely recapitulates in vivo membrane trafficking kinetics. We provide a downloadable application that can be used to adapt our working parameters to further study how endocytic capacity of PT cells may be altered under normal and disease conditions.
