Regulation of angiogenesis by endocytic trafficking mediated by cytoplasmic dynein 1 light intermediate chain 1

Dymonn Johnson, Sarah Colijn, Jahmiera Richee, Joseph J. Yano, Margaret C. Burns, Andrew E. M. Davis, Van N. Pham, Amra Sarić, Akansha Jain, Ying Yin, Daniel Castranova, Mariana Melani, Misato Fujita, Stephanie J. Grainger, Juan S. Bonifacino, , Amber N. Stratman

This study shows that LIC1 and RILPL1/2 restrict angiogenesis by promoting VEGFR2 degradation, and their disruption increases angiogenesis through enhanced Rab11-mediated recycling.

Autophagy controls differentiation of Drosophila blood cells by regulating Notch levels in response to nutrient availability

Maximiliano J. Katz, Felipe Rodríguez, Fermín Evangelisti, Sebastián Pérez-Pandolfo, Natalia Sommario, Agustina Borrat, Mariana Melani, Pablo Wappner

This study shows that autophagy regulates Notch levels in Drosophila blood cell differentiation by modulating lysosomal degradation in response to nutrient availability.
