Mechanical force of uterine occupation enables large vesicle extrusion from proteostressed maternal neurons

Guoqiang Wang, Ryan J. Guasp, Sangeena Salam, Edward Chuang, Andrés Morera, Anna Joelle Smart, David Jimenez, Sahana Shekhar, Emily Friedman, Ilija Melentijevic, Ken C Nguyen, David H. Hall, Barth D. Grant, Monica Driscoll

The paper shows that mechanical uterine distention enhances exopher extrusion from proteostressed C. elegans neurons, linking mechanical force to extracellular vesicle production and neurodegenerative disease mechanisms.

Large vesicle extrusions from C. elegans neurons are consumed and stimulated by glial-like phagocytosis activity of the neighboring cell

Yu Wang, Meghan Lee Arnold, Anna Joelle Smart, Guoqiang Wang, Rebecca J. Androwski, Andrés Morera, Ken C. Q. Nguyen, Peter J. Schweinsberg, Ge Bai, Jason F. Cooper, David H. Hall, Monica Driscoll, Barth D. Grant

The paper investigates the fate of exophers in C. elegans, showing they are engulfed and degraded by hypodermal cells through a phagocytic process involving specific molecular factors.
