Ligand bias in receptor tyrosine kinase signaling [Signal Transduction]

Ligand bias is the ability of ligands to differentially activate certain receptor signaling responses compared with others. It reflects differences in the responses of a receptor to specific ligands and has implications for the development of highly specific therapeutics. Whereas ligand bias has been studied primarily for G protein–coupled receptors (GPCRs), there are also reports of ligand bias for receptor tyrosine kinases (RTKs). However, the understanding of RTK ligand bias is lagging behind the knowledge of GPCR ligand bias. In this review, we highlight how protocols that were developed to study GPCR signaling can be used to identify and quantify RTK ligand bias. We also introduce an operational model that can provide insights into the biophysical basis of RTK activation and ligand bias. Finally, we discuss possible mechanisms underpinning RTK ligand bias. Thus, this review serves as a primer for researchers interested in investigating ligand bias in RTK signaling.

Kennedy Awarded 2025 AMS Foias Prize

Matthew Kennedy, University of Waterloo, has been awarded the 2025 Ciprian Foias Prize in Operator Theory by the American Mathematical Society (AMS). Kennedy has been honored for his wide-ranging and innovative work on group C*-algebras, according to the citation.

Matthew Kennedy

From the citation

The 2025 Ciprian Foias Prize in Operator Theory is awarded to Matthew Kennedy for his wide-ranging and innovative work on group C*-algebras, which combines ideas from operator theory, topological dynamics and group theory, and has led to the solution of several open problems, in particular to characterizations of C*-simple groups and groups with the unique trace property. His paper “An intrinsic characterization of C*-simplicity,” on which the award is based, is the culmination of earlier work in collaboration with Kalantar, Breuillard, and Ozawa. The methods introduced in this work, namely an operator-algebraic theory of boundaries, have subsequently found applications in the study of more general classes of C*-algebras and to dynamical systems.

Response of Matthew Kennedy

I am deeply honored to receive the 2025 Ciprian Foias Prize in Operator Theory. I am thankful to all of my collaborators, and especially to my good friend Mehrdad Kalantar. The genesis of the theory of operator-algebraic boundaries is in my first paper with Mehrdad and, despite our excitement at the time, neither of us had any idea how far these ideas would take us. I am also thankful to my colleagues for their continuous encouragement, and in particular to Narutaka Ozawa for his insight and generosity. My work rests on the foundations built by many other mathematicians, and I want to acknowledge the visionary work of Furstenberg and Hamana, which has been so important to my career. Finally, I am grateful to my advisor, Ken Davidson, for his guidance over the years, and to my family and friends for their love and support. 

Biographical sketch of Matthew Kennedy

Matthew Kennedy studied at the University of Waterloo, where he obtained his PhD in 2011 under Ken Davidson. His thesis on free semigroup algebras earned the 2012 Doctoral Prize from the Canadian Mathematical Society. In 2011, he joined Carleton University as an assistant professor, and in 2015, he returned to the University of Waterloo, where he is now a full professor and university research chair. In 2020, he received the Israel Halperin Prize for outstanding work in operator algebras.

About the prize

The Ciprian Foias Prize in Operator Theory is awarded for notable work in operator theory published in a recognized, peer-reviewed venue during the preceding six years. The prize, awarded every three years, was established in 2020 in memory of Ciprian Foias (1933-2020) by colleagues and friends. He was an influential scholar in operator theory and fluid mechanics, a generous mentor, and an enthusiastic advocate of the mathematical community.

The 2025 prize will be presented at the 2025 Joint Mathematics Meetings in Seattle.

AggreCount: an unbiased image analysis tool for identifying and quantifying cellular aggregates in a spatially defined manner [Methods and Resources]

Protein quality control is maintained by a number of integrated cellular pathways that monitor the folding and functionality of the cellular proteome. Defects in these pathways lead to the accumulation of misfolded or faulty proteins that may become insoluble and aggregate over time. Protein aggregates significantly contribute to the development of a number of human diseases such as amyotrophic lateral sclerosis, Huntington's disease, and Alzheimer's disease. In vitro, imaging-based, cellular studies have defined key biomolecular components that recognize and clear aggregates; however, no unifying method is available to quantify cellular aggregates, limiting our ability to reproducibly and accurately quantify these structures. Here we describe an ImageJ macro called AggreCount to identify and measure protein aggregates in cells. AggreCount is designed to be intuitive, easy to use, and customizable for different types of aggregates observed in cells. Minimal experience in coding is required to utilize the script. Based on a user-defined image, AggreCount will report a number of metrics: (i) total number of cellular aggregates, (ii) percentage of cells with aggregates, (iii) aggregates per cell, (iv) area of aggregates, and (v) localization of aggregates (cytosol, perinuclear, or nuclear). A data table of aggregate information on a per cell basis, as well as a summary table, is provided for further data analysis. We demonstrate the versatility of AggreCount by analyzing a number of different cellular aggregates including aggresomes, stress granules, and inclusion bodies caused by huntingtin polyglutamine expansion.

A potential role for the Gsdf-eEF1{alpha} complex in inhibiting germ cell proliferation: A protein-interaction analysis in medaka (Oryzias latipes) from a proteomics perspective [Research]

Gonadal soma-derived factor (gsdf) has been demonstrated to be essential for testicular differentiation in medaka (Oryzias latipes). To understand the protein dynamics of Gsdf in spermatogenesis regulation, we used a His-tag "pull-down" assay coupled with shotgun LC-MS/MS to identify a group of potential interacting partners for Gsdf, which included cytoplasmic dynein light chain 2, eukaryotic polypeptide elongation factor 1 alpha (eEF1α), and actin filaments in mature medaka testis. As for the interaction with TGFβ-dynein being critical for spermatogonial division in Drosophila melanogaster, the physical interactions of Gsdf-dynein and Gsdf-eEF1α were identified through a yeast 2-hybrid (Y2H) screening of an adult testis cDNA library using Gsdf as bait, which were verified by a paired Y2H assay. Co-immunoprecipitation of Gsdf and eEF1α was defined in adult testes as supporting the requirement of a Gsdf and eEF1α interaction in testis development. Proteomics analysis (data are available via ProteomeXchange with identifier PXD022153) and ultrastrutural observations showed that Gsdf deficiency activated eEF1α-mediated protein synthesis and ribosomal biogenesis, which in turn led to the differentiation of undifferentiated germ cells. Thus, our results provide a framework and new insight into the coordination of a Gsdf (TGFβ and eEF1α complex in the basic processes of germ cell proliferation, transcriptional and translational control of sexual RNA which may be fundamentally conserved across phyla during sexual differentiation.
