β-Amyloid Induces Microglial Expression of GPC4 and APOE Leading to Increased Neuronal Tau Pathology and Toxicity

Brandon B. Holmes, Thaddeus K. Weigel, Jesseca M. Chung…·James A. Wells

This study shows that β-amyloid induces microglial GPC4 and APOE, which increases neuronal tau pathology and toxicity.

PVRL2 Suppresses Anti-tumor Immunity Through PVRIG- and TIGIT-Independent Pathways

Jiuling Yang, Li Wang, James R. Byrnes…·Robert H. Blelloch

This study shows PVRL2 suppresses anti-tumor immunity independently of PVRIG and TIGIT, with deletion reducing tumor growth more than PD-L1 loss.

Site-specific proximity labeling at single residue resolution for identification of protein partners in vitro and on cells

Thomas G. Bartholow, Paul Burroughs, Susanna K. Elledge…·James A. Wells

This paper optimizes a high-resolution proximity labeling method to identify protein partners of HER2 on cells and in vitro, finding 20 high-confidence neighbors enriched compared to non-specific labeling.
