    Abstract Rosai-Dorfman Disease, otherwise known as sinus histiocytosis with massive lymphadenopathy, is a rare form of non-Langerhans cell histiocytosis with an estimated incidence of 100 cases per year in the United States. Due to its variable presentation and nonspecific clinical findings, it is particularly difficult to diagnose in pediatric patients. We report a case of an 11-month-old male who presented with a 4-day history of a right groin mass. Ultrasound of the groin and pelvis demonstrated, and MRI of the abdomen and pelvis confirmed an inguinal mass with surrounding lymphadenopathy. Pathology confirmed Rosai-Dorfman Disease and the patient improved after starting oral steroid therapy. To the best of our knowledge, this is the first case of Rosai-Dorfman Disease involving the inguinal region in an infant under 1 year of age reported in the literature. In this case report, we discuss the imaging and histology findings as well as provide a brief literature review for this diagnosis.

    Abstract The HIV-1 envelope glycoprotein (Env) is incorporated into particles during assembly on the plasma membrane (PM). Env initially reaches the PM through the secretory pathway, after which it is rapidly endocytosed via an AP-2- and clathrin-dependent mechanism. Here we show that endocytosed cell surface Env enters the tubular recycling endosome compartment (TRE). Trafficking to the TRE was dependent upon motifs within the CT previously implicated in Env recycling and particle incorporation. Depletion of TRE components MICAL-L1 or EHD1 led to defects in Env incorporation, particle infectivity, and viral replication. Remarkably, defects were limited to cell types defined as nonpermissive for incorporation of CT-deleted Env, including monocyte-derived macrophages, and not observed in 293T, HeLa, or MT-4 cells. This work identifies the TRE as an essential component of Env trafficking and particle incorporation, and provides evidence that the cell type-dependent incorporation of Env is defined by interactions with components of the TRE.

    Abstract Importance: The HIV-1 envelope glycoprotein (Env) is an essential component of the virus and has an exceedingly long cytoplasmic tail (CT). Previous studies have suggested that trafficking signals in the CT interact with host factors to regulate the incorporation of Env into particles. One particular area of interest is termed lentiviral lytic peptide 3 (LLP3), as small deletions in this region have been shown to disrupt Env incorporation. In this study, we identify a small region within LLP3 that regulates how Env associates with cellular recycling compartments. Mutants that reduced or eliminated Env from the recycling compartment also reduced Env incorporation into particles. These findings emphasize the importance of two tryptophan motifs in LLP3 for the incorporation of Env into particles and provide additional support for the idea that the CT interacts with host recycling pathways to determine particle incorporation.

    Abstract The HIV-1 envelope glycoprotein complex (Env) is incorporated into developing particles at the plasma membrane (PM). The cytoplasmic tail (CT) of Env is known to play an essential role in particle incorporation, while the exact mechanisms underlying this function of the CT remain uncertain. Upon reaching the PM, trafficking signals in the CT interact with host cell endocytic machinery, directing Env into endosomal compartments within the cell. Prior studies have suggested that Env must traffic through the endosomal recycling compartment (ERC) in order for Env to return to the plasma membrane (PM) site of particle assembly. Expression of a truncated form of the ERC-resident trafficking adaptor Rab11-Family Interacting Proteins C (FIP1C) resulted in CT-dependent sequestration of Env in the condensed ERC, preventing recycling of Env to the PM. In this work, the motifs within the CT responsible for ERC localization of Env were systematically mapped. A small deletion encompassing the N-terminal portion of LLP3 eliminated ERC localization. Site-directed mutagenesis identified two tryptophan-based motifs (WE

    Abstract Historical studies are heavily impacted by whose stories are told, who writes them, and how much local perspectives are included. This is true in volcanology as well, where analysis of historical sources and data related to eruptions may be impacted by the perspective and lived experience of the authors. As such, it is important to understand where the authors of volcanological studies are from and what perspectives they have. We used bibliometric methods to assess the way in which local researchers are included in volcanological publications by comparing the affiliation of authors with the country in which researched volcanoes are located. Globally, 40% of articles about a specific volcano do not include an author whose affiliation is based in the country where the volcano is located (a locally domiciled author), while 56% are led by authors not based in the country of the volcano. Over the past three decades, first authorship rates among local researchers have not increased. However, local researchers have become more frequently included as co-authors in research led by researchers domiciled elsewhere. The results of these analyses suggest that there is room for improvement in inclusivity in volcanological research and cause for reflection on how we collaborate with international partners. Improved collaboration and inclusion in publishing could result in better consideration of local knowledge and perspectives when analyzing historical information related to volcanic eruptions.

    Abstract The assembly of HIV-1 particles is a concerted and dynamic process that takes place on the plasma membrane of infected cells. An abundance of recent discoveries has advanced our understanding of the complex sequence of events leading to HIV-1 particle assembly, budding, and release. Structural studies have illuminated key features of assembly and maturation, including the dramatic structural transition that occurs between the immature Gag lattice and the formation of the mature viral capsid core. The critical role of inositol hexakisphosphate (IP6) in the assembly of both the immature and mature Gag lattice has been elucidated. The structural basis for selective packaging of genomic RNA into virions has been revealed. This review will provide an overview of the HIV-1 assembly process, with a focus on recent advances in the field, and will point out areas where questions remain that can benefit from future investigation.

    Abstract Pyroclastic density currents (PDCs) that escape their confining channels are among the most dangerous of volcanic hazards. These unconfined PDCs are capable of inundating inhabited areas that may be unprepared for these hazards, resulting in significant loss of life and damage to infrastructure. Unconfined PDCs can be categorized based on some of their primary dynamic characteristics (e.g., velocity, concentration, dynamic pressure, temperature), which also determine the impacts that they have on humans and infrastructure. Here, we used impact assessments following eruptions at Merapi (Indonesia) in 2010 and Fuego (Guatemala) in 2018 to better understand the dynamics of the PDCs during the eruptions. By analyzing these and similar events, we identified four main categories of unconfined PDC based on their dynamic characteristics: 1. fast overspill flows, 2. slow overspill flows, 3. high-energy surges, and 4. low-energy detached surges (LEDS). How we treat the uncertainty associated with forecasting the inundation area of these PDCs (e.g., in modelling) significantly impacts hazard planning for areas prone to volcanic eruptions. We provide an example of this using hazard modelling of lava dome collapse PDCs from several high-risk volcanoes in Southeast Asia, which show a difference in the projected impacts depending on the overspill buffer with which the PDC is modelled.

    Abstract The human immunodeficiency virus type 1 (HIV-1) envelope glycoprotein (Env) is incorporated into virions at the site of particle assembly on the plasma membrane (PM). The route taken by Env to reach the site of assembly and particle incorporation remains incompletely understood. Following initial delivery to the PM through the secretory pathway, Env is rapidly endocytosed, suggesting that recycling is required for particle incorporation. Endosomes marked by the small GTPase Rab14 have been previously shown to play a role in Env trafficking. Here, we examined the role of KIF16B, the molecular motor protein that directs outward movement of Rab14-dependent cargo, in Env trafficking. Env colocalized extensively with KIF16B

    Abstract Symmetries and their associated selection rules are extremely useful in many fields of science. For systems of electromagnetic (EM) fields interacting with matter, the symmetries of matter and the EM fields' time-dependent polarization determine the properties of the nonlinear responses, and they can be facilitated for controlling light emission and enabling ultrafast symmetry breaking spectroscopy of various properties. Here, we formulate a general theory that describes the macroscopic and microscopic dynamical symmetries (including quasicrystal-like symmetries) of EM vector fields, revealing many previously unidentified symmetries and selection rules in light-matter interactions. We demonstrate an example of multiscale selection rules experimentally in the framework of high harmonic generation. This work paves the way for novel spectroscopic techniques in multiscale systems and for imprinting complex structures in extreme ultraviolet-x-ray beams, attosecond pulses, or the interacting medium itself.
