    Abstract Autophagy is one of the major highly inducible degradation processes in response to plant developmental and environmental signals. In response to different stimuli, cellular materials, including proteins and organelles, can be sequestered into a double membrane autophagosome structure either selectively or non-selectively. The formation of an autophagosome as well as its delivery into the vacuole involves complex and dynamic membrane processes. The identification and characterization of the conserved autophagy-related (ATG) proteins and their related regulators have greatly advanced our understanding of the molecular mechanism underlying autophagosome biogenesis and function in plant cells. Autophagosome biogenesis is tightly regulated by the coordination of multiple ATG and non-ATG proteins, and selective cargo recruitment. This review updates our current knowledge of autophagosome biogenesis, with special emphasis on the core molecular machinery that drives autophagosome formation, and autophagosome-organelle interactions under abiotic stress conditions.

    Abstract We are entering an exciting century in the study of the plant organelles in the endomembrane system. Over the past century, especially within the past 50 years, tremendous advancements have been made in the complex plant cell to generate a much clearer and informative picture of plant organelles, including the molecular/morphological features, dynamic/spatial behavior, and physiological functions. Importantly, all these discoveries and achievements in the identification and characterization of organelles in the endomembrane system would not have been possible without: (1) the innovations and timely applications of various state-of-art cell biology tools and technologies for organelle biology research; (2) the continuous efforts in developing and characterizing new organelle markers by the plant biology community; and (3) the landmark studies on the identification and characterization of the elusive organelles. While molecular aspects and results for individual organelles have been extensively reviewed, the development of the techniques for organelle research in plant cell biology is less appreciated. As one of the ASPB Centennial Reviews on "organelle biology," here we aim to take a journey across a century of organelle biology research in plants by highlighting the important tools (or landmark technologies) and key scientists that contributed to visualize organelles. We then highlight the landmark studies leading to the identification and characterization of individual organelles in the plant endomembrane systems.

    Abstract Background: EBV pneumonia with multiple cavitary pulmonary lesions is clinically rare. We analyzed the clinical characteristics, diagnosis and treatment, with an aim to enhance clinicians' awareness of this disease and reduce misdiagnosis and missed diagnoses.
    Case presentation: This paper presents A 59-year-old male patient's initial symptoms included fever, cough, sputum, and asthma. The pulmonary CT imaging demonstrated multiple patchy and ground glass consolidation in both lungs, partial cavitary formation, and subpleural mesh lattice changes in the lower lobe of both lungs. Further analysis, including bronchoalveolar lavage fluid (BALF) metagenomic next-generation sequencing (mNGS) and CT-guided percutaneous lung biopsy mNGS, supported the diagnosis of EBV pneumonia. The patient was treated with acyclovir antiviral therapy for a week, resulting in symptom relief. Follow-up lung CT scans indicated interval reduction of inflammatory lesions, cavities, and interstitial changes. As the patient's condition improved significantly and he was discharged from hospital. The treatment was continued with oral acyclovir for 12 days. Subsequent outpatient follow-up CT performed 12 days after discharge revealed further improvement of the inflammatory lesions, as well as a reduction in cavitary and interstitial changes.
    Conclusion: The clinical imaging findings in the presented case were highly distinctive and have not been documented in either domestic or international literature. This uniqueness could have potentially contributed to misdiagnosis or overlooked diagnosis. mNGS of percutaneous lung puncture tissue is valuable for the diagnosis of infection with rare lung pathogens.

    Abstract Newcastle disease (ND) has been a consistent risk factor to the poultry industry worldwide. Its pathogen, Newcastle disease virus (NDV), is also a promising antitumor treatment candidate. The pathogenic mechanism has intrigued the great curiosity of researchers, and advances in the last two decades have been summarized in this paper. The NDV's pathogenic ability is highly related to the basic protein structure of the virus, which is described in the Introduction of this review. The overall clinical signs and recent findings pertaining to NDV-related lymph tissue damage are then described. Given the involvement of cytokines in the overall virulence of NDV, cytokines, particularly IL6 and IFN expressed during infection, are reviewed. On the other hand, the host also has its way of antagonizing the virus, which starts with the detection of the pathogen. Thus, advances in NDV's physiological cell mechanism and the subsequent IFN response, autophagy, and apoptosis are summarized to provide a whole picture of the NDV infection process.

    Abstract Coordination of growth and division in eukaryotic cells is essential for populations of proliferating cells to maintain size homeostasis, but the underlying mechanisms that govern cell size have only been investigated in a few taxa. The green alga Chlamydomonas reinhardtii (Chlamydomonas) proliferates using a multiple fission cell cycle that involves a long G1 phase followed by a rapid series of successive S and M phases (S/M) that produces 2n daughter cells. Two control points show cell-size dependence: the Commitment control point in mid-G1 phase requires the attainment of a minimum size to enable at least one mitotic division during S/M, and the S/M control point where mother cell size governs cell division number (n), ensuring that daughter distributions are uniform. tny1 mutants pass Commitment at a smaller size than wild type and undergo extra divisions during S/M phase to produce small daughters, indicating that TNY1 functions to inhibit size-dependent cell cycle progression. TNY1 encodes a cytosolic hnRNP A-related RNA binding protein and is produced once per cell cycle during S/M phase where it is apportioned to daughter cells, and then remains at constant absolute abundance as cells grow, a property known as subscaling. Altering the dosage of TNY1 in heterozygous diploids or through mis-expression increased Commitment cell size and daughter cell size, indicating that TNY1 is a limiting factor for both size control points. Epistasis placed TNY1 function upstream of the retinoblastoma tumor suppressor complex (RBC) and one of its regulators, Cyclin-Dependent Kinase G1 (CDKG1). Moreover, CDKG1 protein and mRNA were found to over-accumulate in tny1 cells suggesting that CDKG1 may be a direct target of repression by TNY1. Our data expand the potential roles of subscaling proteins outside the nucleus and imply a control mechanism that ties TNY1 accumulation to pre-division mother cell size.

    Abstract Endomembrane trafficking is an evolutionarily conserved process for all eukaryotic organisms. It is a fundamental and essential process for the transportation of proteins, lipids, or cellular metabolites. The aforementioned cellular components are sorted across multiple membrane-bounded organelles. In plant cells, the endomembrane mainly consists of the nuclear envelope, endoplasmic reticulum (ER), Golgi apparatus, trans-Golgi network or early endosome (TGN/EE), prevacuolar compartments or multivesicular bodies (PVCs/MVBs), and vacuole. Among them, Golgi apparatus and TGN represent two central sorting intermediates for cargo secretion and recycling from other compartments by anterograde or retrograde trafficking. Several protein sorting machineries have been identified to function in these pathways for cargo recognition and vesicle assembly. Exciting progress has been made in recent years to provide novel insights into the sorting complexes and also the underlying sorting mechanisms in plants. Here, we will highlight the recent findings for the adaptor protein (AP) complexes, retromer, and retriever complexes, and also their functions in the related coated vesicle formation in post-Golgi trafficking.
