1. 端粒耽搁代替机造不依赖端粒酶就能够维持端粒长度
【动态】
人类癌症亚型中存在一种守护端粒的端粒耽搁代替机造（ALT）。约莫10%到15%的人类癌症检测不到端粒酶活性，其中一些通过被称为端粒耽搁代替机造的不依赖端粒酶的端粒守护机造维持端粒长度。ALT表型在赘瘤和星形细胞瘤中相对比力普遍，而在上皮癌变中鲜有报路。不外，ALT的普遍性还没有在所有癌症类型中得到彻底鉴定。美国科学家就此在宽泛的人类癌症中对ALT表型进行了综合调查。总共两个独立的样本群蕴含来自94种分歧癌症亚型的6110例原发癌症，541例良性肿瘤，和264例正常组织通过端粒特异性的荧光原位杂交和免疫荧光象征PML蛋白相结合的技术进行了鉴定。总体上，在所有癌症样本中3.73%（228/6110）观察到ALT，在良性肿瘤和正常组织中都没有观察到ALT。这是第一例报路ALT呈此刻膀胱、子宫颈、子宫内膜、食路、胆囊、肾、肝和肺部的癌症中。此表，这也是第一例报路成神经管细胞瘤、少突神经胶质瘤、脑膜瘤、神经鞘瘤和赤子恶性胶质瘤中出现ALT。先前的钻研显示ALT状态和某些癌症的预后有关系，因而，必要进一步钻研评估ALT阳性的肿瘤的潜在预后意思和怪异生物学。

【点评】
可能利用ALT蹊径的癌症预期会耐受抗端粒酶医治，因而该钻研的这些了局可能会对癌症医治产生影响，深刻钻研和理解 ALT蹊径的分子机理可能对设计针对利用ALT蹊径的癌症的药物有重要作用。

Prevalence of the Alternative Lengthening of Telomeres Telomere Maintenance Mechanism in Human Cancer Subtypes
Christopher M. Heaphy, Andrea P. Subhawong, Seung-Mo Hong, et al. 
Approximately 10% to 15% of human cancers lack detectable telomerase activity, and a subset of these maintain telomere lengths by the telomerase-independent telomere maintenance mechanism termed alternative lengthening of telomeres (ALT). The ALT phenotype, relatively common in subtypes of sarcomas and astrocytomas, has rarely been reported in epithelial malignancies. However, the prevalence of ALT has not been thoroughly assessed across all cancer types. We therefore comprehensively surveyed the ALT phenotype in a broad range of human cancers. In total, two independent sets comprising 6110 primary tumors from 94 different cancer subtypes, 541 benign neoplasms, and 264 normal tissue samples were assessed by combined telomere-specific fluorescence in situ hybridization and immunofluorescence labeling for PML protein. Overall, ALT was observed in 3.73% (228/6110) of all tumor specimens, but was not observed in benign neoplasms or normal tissues. This is the first report of ALT in carcinomas arising from the bladder, cervix, endometrium, esophagus, gallbladder, kidney, liver, and lung. Additionally, this is the first report of ALT in medulloblastomas, oligodendrogliomas, meningiomas, schwannomas, and pediatric glioblastoma multiformes. Previous studies have shown associations between ALT status and prognosis in some tumor types; thus, further studies are warranted to assess the potential prognostic significance and unique biology of ALT-positive tumors. These findings may have therapeutic consequences, because ALT-positive cancers are predicted to be resistant to anti-telomerase therapies.

Isolation and in vitro expansion of human colonic stem cells
Peter Jung, Toshiro Sato, Anna Merlos-Suárez, et al.
Here we describe the isolation of stem cells of the human colonic epithelium. Differential cell surface abundance of ephrin type-B receptor 2 (EPHB2) allows the purification of different cell types from human colon mucosa biopsies. The highest EPHB2 surface levels correspond to epithelial colonic cells with the longest telomeres and elevated expression of intestinal stem cell (ISC) marker genes. Moreover, using culturing conditions that recreate the ISC niche, a substantial proportion of EPHB2-high cells can be expanded in vitro as an undifferentiated and multipotent population.

3. 微环境的脂肪细胞调节皮肤干细胞活性

Adipocyte Lineage Cells Contribute to the Skin Stem Cell Niche to Drive Hair Cycling
Eric Festa, Jackie Fretz, Ryan Berry, et al.
In mammalian skin, multiple types of resident cells are required to create a functional tissue and support tissue homeostasis and regeneration. The cells that compose the epithelial stem cell niche for skin homeostasis and regeneration are not well defined. Here, we identify adipose precursor cells within the skin and demonstrate that their dynamic regeneration parallels the activation of skin stem cells. Functional analysis of adipocyte lineage cells in mice with defects in adipogenesis and in transplantation experiments revealed that intradermal adipocyte lineage cells are necessary and sufficient to drive follicular stem cell activation. Furthermore, we implicate PDGF expression by immature adipocyte cells in the regulation of follicular stem cell activity. These data highlight adipogenic cells as skin niche cells that positively regulate skin stem cell activity, and suggest that adipocyte lineage cells may alter epithelial stem cell function clinically.

4. 内质网幼管象征线粒体割裂位点
【动态】
线粒体通过割裂和融合调节自身结构和散布。线粒体割裂受控于Dnm1/Drp1，一个萦绕线粒体形成螺旋调节割裂的与发起蛋白有关的蛋白。在线粒体网络中什么决定了割裂位点还很不明显。内质网和线粒体阐发出缜密耦合的动力学和宽泛的接触。加州大学的科学家钻研了内质网是否在线粒体割裂中起作用。他们发现线粒体割裂发生在内质网幼管接触线粒体并调节招募Drp1前的收缩的地位。因而，内质网幼管可能在界定线粒体割裂位点中起积极的作用。

【点评】
线粒体维持正常职能对于细胞代谢是至关重要的，相识线粒体正常割裂的参加成分对于线粒体割裂阻碍造成的职能缺点的医治有重要意思。

ER Tubules Mark Sites of Mitochondrial Division
Jonathan R. Friedman, Laura L. Lackner, Matthew West, et al. 
Mitochondrial structure and distribution are regulated by division and fusion events. Mitochondrial division is regulated by Dnm1/Drp1, a dynamin-related protein that forms helices around mitochondria to mediate fission. Little is known about what determines sites of mitochondrial fission within the mitochondrial network. The endoplasmic reticulum (ER) and mitochondria exhibit tightly coupled dynamics and have extensive contacts. We tested whether ER plays a role in mitochondrial division. We found that mitochondrial division occurred at positions where ER tubules contacted mitochondria and mediated constriction prior to Drp1 recruitment. Thus, ER tubules may play an active role in defining the position of mitochondrial division sites.

Impairment of Lon-Induced Protection Against the Accumulation of Oxidized Proteins in Senescent Wi-38 Fibroblasts 
J. K. Ngo, L. C. D. Pomatto, D. A. Bota, et al.
Oxidative damage to mitochondrial proteins is thought to contribute to the aging process, but the Lon protease normally degrades such proteins. In early-passage WI-38 human lung fibroblasts, Lon expression is rapidly induced during H2O2 stress, which prevents the accumulation of oxidized proteins and protects cell viability. In contrast, middle passage cells exhibit only sluggish induction of Lon expression in oxidative stress, and oxidized proteins initially accumulate. Late-passage, or senescent, cells have low basal levels of Lon and high levels of accumulated oxidized proteins; in response to oxidative stress, they fail to induce Lon expression and exhibit continually increasing accumulation of oxidized proteins. Senescent cells separated into two populations, one exhibiting normal mitochondrial mass and a second displaying significant loss of mitochondria; both populations had diminished mitochondrial transmembrane potential. These senescent changes are similar to the effects of Lon silencing in young cells. We suggest that loss of Lon stress inducibility is part of a pattern of diminishing stress adaptability that predisposes cells to senescence.

Proof of principle for transfusion of in vitro generated red blood cells
Marie-Catherine Giarratana, Hélène Rouard, Agnès Dumont, et al. 
In vitro red blood cell (RBC) production from stem cells could represent an alternative to classical transfusion products. Up until now the clinical feasibility of this concept has not been demonstrated. We addressed the question of the capacity of cultured RBC (cRBC) to survive in human. Using a culture protocol permitting erythroid differentiation from peripheral CD34+ HSC, we generated a homogeneous population of cRBC functional in terms of their deformability, enzyme content, capacity of their hemoglobin to fix/release oxygen and expression of blood group antigens. We then demonstrated in the NOD/SCID mouse that cRBC encountered in vivo the conditions necessary for their complete maturation. These data provided the rationale for injecting into one human a homogeneous sample of 1010 cRBC generated under GMP conditions and labeled with 51Cr. The level of these cells in the circulation 26 days after injection lies between 41 and 63 % which compares favorably to the reported half-life of 28 ± 2 days for native RBC. Their survival in vivo testifies globally to their quality and functionality. These data establish the proof of principle for transfusion of in vitro generated RBC and path the way towards new developments in transfusion medicine. This study has been registered at clinicaltrials.gov as NCT0929266.
