    ABSTRACT For appropriate treatments of infectious diseases, rapid identification of the pathogens is crucial. Here, we developed a rapid and label-free method for identifying common bacterial pathogens as individual bacteria by using three-dimensional quantitative phase imaging and deep learning. We achieved 95% accuracy in classifying 19 bacterial species by exploiting the rich information in three-dimensional refractive index tomograms with a convolutional neural network classifier. Extensive analysis of the features extracted by the trained classifier was carried out, which supported that our classifier is capable of learning species-dependent characteristics. We also confirmed that utilizing three-dimensional refractive index tomograms was crucial for identification ability compared to two-dimensional imaging. This method, which does not require time-consuming culture, shows high feasibility for diagnosing patients with infectious diseases who would benefit from immediate and adequate antibiotic treatment.

    AbstractOdonata (dragonflies and damselflies) display remarkable color pattern diversity including sexual dimorphism and intrasexual polymorphism. We previously found that expression of a sex-determining transcription factor, thedoublesex(dsx) gene, is associated with female color polymorphism (gynomorph for female-specific color and andromorph for male mimicking color) in the blue-tailed damselfly,Ischnura senegalensis. Here we investigate the function of dsx gene on thoracic coloration by electroporation-mediated RNA interference (RNAi). RNAi of thedsxcommon region changed color patterns of males and andromorphic females to patterns of gynomorphic females. Further, gynomorphic color pattern was not affected bydsxRNAi. The long isoform ofdsxRNAi produced no effects, suggesting that the short isoform ofdsxis important for body color masculinization in both males and andromorphic females. Expression pattern changes were also examined in five genes with different expression levels between sexes and female morphs. Among these genes are two melanin suppressing genes,blackandebony, that were upregulated in thedsx-RNAi region compared to a control region. Upregulation coincides with a gynomorphic orange color instead of the black stripe observed in males and andromorphic females.dsxmay regulate male color differentiation by suppressingblackandebonyin the thoracic region ofI. senegalensis.Results add to the understanding of molecular mechanisms underlying the evolution of female polymorphism in Odonata.

    AbstractCartilaginous fishes have a very high phenotypical diversity, a phenomenon for which the mechanisms have been largely unexplored. Here, we report the genome of the white-spotted bamboo shark as the first chromosome-level genome assembly of cartilaginous fish. Using this genome, we illustrated a dynamic chromosome rearrangement process in the bamboo shark, which resulted in the formation of 13 chromosomes, all of which were sparsely distributed with conserved genes and fast-evolving. We found the fast-evolving chromosomes to be enriched in immune-related genes with two chromosomes harboring the major genes for developing the single-chain antibody. We also found chromosome rearrangements to have resulted in the loss of two genes (p2rx3andp2rx5) which we also showed were involved in cartilage development using a CRISPR/Cas9 approach in zebrafish. Our study highlighted the significance of chromosome rearrangements in the phenotypical evolution of cartilaginous fishes, providing clues to inform further studies on mechanisms for fish diversification.

    AbstractCharacterization of decision makings in a cell in response to received signals is of high importance for understanding how cell fate is determined. The problem becomes multi-faceted and complex when we consider cellular heterogeneity and dynamics of biochemical processes. In this paper, we present a unified set of decision-theoretic and statistical signal processing methods and metrics to model the precision of signaling decisions, given uncertainty, using single cell data. First, we introduce erroneous decisions that may result from signaling processes, and identify false alarm and miss event that are associated with such decisions. Then, we present an optimal decision strategy which minimizes the total decision error probability. The optimal decision threshold or boundary is determined using the maximum likelihood principle that chooses the hypothesis under which the data are most probable. Additionally, we demonstrate how graphing receiver operating characteristic curve conveniently reveals the trade-off between false alarm and miss probabilities associated with different cell responses. Furthermore, we extend the introduced signaling outcome modeling framework to incorporate the dynamics of biochemical processes and reactions in a cell, using multi-time point measurements and multi-dimensional outcome analysis and decision making algorithms. The introduced multivariate signaling outcome modeling framework can be used to analyze several molecular species measured at the same or different time instants. We also show how the developed binary outcome analysis and decision making approach can be extended to include more than two possible outcomes. To show how the overall set of introduced models and methods can be used in practice and as an example, we apply them to single cell data of an intracellular regulatory molecule called Phosphatase and Tensin homolog (PTEN) in a p53 system, in wild-type and abnormal, e.g., mutant cells. These molecules are involved in tumor suppression, cell cycle regulation and apoptosis. The unified signaling outcome modeling framework presented here can be applied to various organisms ranging from simple ones such as viruses, bacteria, yeast, and lower metazoans, to more complex organisms such as mammalian cells. Ultimately, this signaling outcome modeling approach can be useful for better understanding of transition from physiological to pathological conditions such as inflammation, various cancers and autoimmune diseases.Brief SummaryCells are supposed to make correct decisions, i.e., respond properly to various signals and initiate certain cellular functions, based on the signals they receive from the surrounding environment. Due to signal transduction noise, signaling malfunctions or other factors, cells may respond differently to the same input signals, which may result in incorrect cell decisions. Modeling and quantification of decision making processes and signaling outcomes in cells have emerged as important research areas in recent years. Here we present univariate and multivariate data-driven statistical models and methods for analyzing dynamic decision making processes and signaling outcomes. Furthermore, we exemplify the methods using single cell data generated by a p53 system, in wild-type and abnormal cells.

    AbstractIn plant biology, transient expression analysis plays a vital role to provide a fast method to study the gene of interest and subsequently leads the path to develop an improved crop variety with better agronomic traits. In this study, we have reported a rapid and efficient method for transient expression in Cannabis sativa seedlings using Agrobacterium tumefaciens-mediated transformation. A. tumefaciens strain EHA105 carrying the pCAMBIA1301 construct with uidA gene was used to transform cannabis seedlings and the GUS assay was used to detect the uidA expression. A 1% hydrogen peroxide (H2O2) solution was used for both seed sterilization and rapid germination steps. Transient transformation revealed that both cotyledons and young true leaves are amenable to transformation. Comparison to Nicotiana tabacum (tobacco) showed that cannabis seedlings were less susceptible to transformation with Agrobacterium tumefaciens. The susceptibility to Agrobacterium infection also varied with the different cannabis cultivars. The method established in this study has potential to be an important tool for gene-function studies and genetic improvement in cannabis.

    AbstractMicroglia interact with neurons to facilitate synapse plasticity; however, signal transducers between microglia and neuron remain unknown. Here, using in vitro organotypic hippocampal slice cultures and transient MCAO in genetically-engineered mice in vivo, we report that at 24 h post-ischemia microglia release BDNF to downregulate glutamatergic and GABAergic synapses within the peri-infarct area. Analysis of the CA1 hippocampal formation in vitro shows that proBDNF and mBDNF downregulate glutamatergic dendritic spines and gephyrin scaffold stability through p75NTR and TrkB receptors respectively. Post-MCAO, we report that in the peri- infarct area and in the corresponding contralateral hemisphere similar neuroplasticity occur through microglia activation and gephyrin phosphorylation at Ser268, Ser270 in vivo. Targeted deletion of the Bdnf gene in microglia or GphnS268A/S270A (phospho-null) point-mutations protect against ischemic brain damage, neuroinflamation and synapse downregulation normally seen post-MCAO. Collectively, we report that gephyrin phosphorylation and microglia derived BDNF faciliate synapse plasticity after transient ischemia.

    AbstractXenobiotic resistance is commonly found in species with short generation times such as bacteria, annual plants, and insects. Nevertheless, the fundamental evolutionary principles that govern the spread of resistance alleles hold true for species with longer generation times. One such example could occur with sea lamprey (Petromyzon marinus), a parasitic invasive species in the Laurentian Great Lakes that decimated native fish populations prior to its control with the pesticide 3-trifluoromethyl-4-nitrophenol (TFM). Since the 1950s, tributaries have been treated annually with TFM, where treatments effectively remove most, but not all, larval sea lamprey. We developed an eco-genetic model of sea lamprey to examine factors affecting the evolution of resistance and found that resistance alleles rapidly rise to fixation after 40–80 years of treatment, despite the species’ relatively long generation time (4–7 years). The absence of natal homing allows resistant individuals to spread quickly throughout the entire system, but also makes the early detection of resistance challenging. High costs of resistance and density independent reproduction can delay, but not prevent, the onset of resistance. These results illustrate that sea lamprey have the potential to evolve resistance to their primary control agent in the near future, highlighting the urgent need for alternative controls.

    eLife digest Plants, animals and other living things grow and develop over their lifetimes: for example, oak trees come from acorns and chickens begin their lives as eggs. To achieve these transformations, the cells in those living things must grow, divide and change their shape and other features. Plants and animals specify the directions in which their cells will grow and develop by gathering specific proteins to one side of the cells. This makes one side different from all the other sides, which the cells use as an internal compass that points in one direction. To align their internal compasses, animal cells touch one another and often move around inside the body. Plant cells, on the other hand, are surrounded by a wall that keeps them apart and prevents them from moving around. So how do plant cells align their internal compasses? Scientists have long thought that a protein called GNOM aligns the internal compasses of plant cells. The hypothesis proposes that GNOM gathers another protein, called PIN1, to one side of a cell. PIN1 would then pump a plant hormone known as auxin out of this first cell and, in doing so, would also drain auxin away from the cell on the opposite side. In this second cell, GNOM would then gather PIN1 to the side facing the first cell, and this process would repeat until all the cells' compasses were aligned. To test this hypothesis, Verna et al. combined microscopy with genetic approaches to study how cells' compasses are aligned in the leaves of a plant called Arabidopsis thaliana. The experiments revealed that auxin needs to move from cell-to-cell to align the cells’ compasses. However, contrary to the above hypothesis, this movement of auxin was not sufficient: the cells also needed to be able to detect and respond to the auxin that entered them. Along with controlling how auxin moved between the cells, GNOM also regulated how the cells responded to the auxin. These findings reveal how plants specify which directions their cells grow and develop. In the future, this knowledge may eventually aid efforts to improve crop yields by controlling the growth and development of crop plants. Plants coordinate the polarity of hundreds of cells during vein formation, but how they do so is unclear. The prevailing hypothesis proposes that GNOM, a regulator of membrane trafficking, positions PIN-FORMED auxin transporters to the correct side of the plasma membrane; the resulting cell-to-cell, polar transport of auxin would coordinate tissue cell polarity and induce vein formation. Contrary to predictions of the hypothesis, we find that vein formation occurs in the absence of PIN-FORMED or any other intercellular auxin-transporter; that the residual auxin-transport-independent vein-patterning activity relies on auxin signaling; and that a GNOM-dependent signal acts upstream of both auxin transport and signaling to coordinate tissue cell polarity and induce vein formation. Our results reveal synergism between auxin transport and signaling, and their unsuspected control by GNOM in the coordination of tissue cell polarity during vein patterning, one of the most informative expressions of tissue cell polarization in plants.

    Abstract Revealing drivers of variation in resource specialization is a long-standing goal in ecological and evolutionary research. As a general prediction, the degree of resource specialization increases towards lower latitudes. Although herbivorous insects are one of the best-studied consumer groups, factors determining the degree of specialization on large spatial scales are poorly understood. Herein, we focused on the fundamental host breadth of 246 herbivorous butterfly species distributed across the Japanese archipelago. Using Bayesian Structural Equation Modeling based on information of pooled geographical occurrence and host use, we show that local butterfly communities tend to become more specialized towards higher latitudes, a pattern that is opposite to predictions from classical hypotheses. We also found that the pattern is mainly driven by factors related to climate, butterfly diversity, and body size in each community. Our results re-emphasize the importance of current climate as a regulating factor for butterfly host breadth and morphology.

    AbstractClinical observations have indicated that patients with Gaucher disease or Fabry disease are at increased risk of cancer. However, a systematic evaluation of the oncogenic effects of causal mutations of lysosomal storage diseases (LSDs) has been lacking. Here we report a comprehensive association analysis between potentially pathogenic germline mutations in LSD genes and cancer interrogating genomic (or exomic) variant datasets derived from the Pan-Cancer Analysis of Whole Genomes project (case cohort), the 1000 Genomes project (primary control cohort), and the Exome Aggregation Consortium that does not include The Cancer Genome Atlas subset (validation control cohort). We show that potentially pathogenic variants (PPVs) in 42 LSD genes are significantly enriched in cancer patients in a histology-dependent manner, cancer risk is higher in individuals with a greater number of PPVs, and cancer develops earlier in PPV carriers. Analysis of tumor genomic and transcriptomic data from the pancreatic adenocarcinoma cohort revealed potential mechanisms that might be involved in the oncogenic contribution of PPVs. Our findings extend the mechanistic understanding of inherited cancer susceptibility and highlight the promise of harnessing available therapeutic strategies to restore lysosomal function for personalized cancer prevention.

    ABSTRACT For appropriate treatments of infectious diseases, rapid identification of the pathogens is crucial. Here, we developed a rapid and label-free method for identifying common bacterial pathogens as individual bacteria by using three-dimensional quantitative phase imaging and deep learning. We achieved 95% accuracy in classifying 19 bacterial species by exploiting the rich information in three-dimensional refractive index tomograms with a convolutional neural network classifier. Extensive analysis of the features extracted by the trained classifier was carried out, which supported that our classifier is capable of learning species-dependent characteristics. We also confirmed that utilizing three-dimensional refractive index tomograms was crucial for identification ability compared to two-dimensional imaging. This method, which does not require time-consuming culture, shows high feasibility for diagnosing patients with infectious diseases who would benefit from immediate and adequate antibiotic treatment.

    AbstractOdonata (dragonflies and damselflies) display remarkable color pattern diversity including sexual dimorphism and intrasexual polymorphism. We previously found that expression of a sex-determining transcription factor, thedoublesex(dsx) gene, is associated with female color polymorphism (gynomorph for female-specific color and andromorph for male mimicking color) in the blue-tailed damselfly,Ischnura senegalensis. Here we investigate the function of dsx gene on thoracic coloration by electroporation-mediated RNA interference (RNAi). RNAi of thedsxcommon region changed color patterns of males and andromorphic females to patterns of gynomorphic females. Further, gynomorphic color pattern was not affected bydsxRNAi. The long isoform ofdsxRNAi produced no effects, suggesting that the short isoform ofdsxis important for body color masculinization in both males and andromorphic females. Expression pattern changes were also examined in five genes with different expression levels between sexes and female morphs. Among these genes are two melanin suppressing genes,blackandebony, that were upregulated in thedsx-RNAi region compared to a control region. Upregulation coincides with a gynomorphic orange color instead of the black stripe observed in males and andromorphic females.dsxmay regulate male color differentiation by suppressingblackandebonyin the thoracic region ofI. senegalensis.Results add to the understanding of molecular mechanisms underlying the evolution of female polymorphism in Odonata.

    AbstractCartilaginous fishes have a very high phenotypical diversity, a phenomenon for which the mechanisms have been largely unexplored. Here, we report the genome of the white-spotted bamboo shark as the first chromosome-level genome assembly of cartilaginous fish. Using this genome, we illustrated a dynamic chromosome rearrangement process in the bamboo shark, which resulted in the formation of 13 chromosomes, all of which were sparsely distributed with conserved genes and fast-evolving. We found the fast-evolving chromosomes to be enriched in immune-related genes with two chromosomes harboring the major genes for developing the single-chain antibody. We also found chromosome rearrangements to have resulted in the loss of two genes (p2rx3andp2rx5) which we also showed were involved in cartilage development using a CRISPR/Cas9 approach in zebrafish. Our study highlighted the significance of chromosome rearrangements in the phenotypical evolution of cartilaginous fishes, providing clues to inform further studies on mechanisms for fish diversification.

    AbstractCharacterization of decision makings in a cell in response to received signals is of high importance for understanding how cell fate is determined. The problem becomes multi-faceted and complex when we consider cellular heterogeneity and dynamics of biochemical processes. In this paper, we present a unified set of decision-theoretic and statistical signal processing methods and metrics to model the precision of signaling decisions, given uncertainty, using single cell data. First, we introduce erroneous decisions that may result from signaling processes, and identify false alarm and miss event that are associated with such decisions. Then, we present an optimal decision strategy which minimizes the total decision error probability. The optimal decision threshold or boundary is determined using the maximum likelihood principle that chooses the hypothesis under which the data are most probable. Additionally, we demonstrate how graphing receiver operating characteristic curve conveniently reveals the trade-off between false alarm and miss probabilities associated with different cell responses. Furthermore, we extend the introduced signaling outcome modeling framework to incorporate the dynamics of biochemical processes and reactions in a cell, using multi-time point measurements and multi-dimensional outcome analysis and decision making algorithms. The introduced multivariate signaling outcome modeling framework can be used to analyze several molecular species measured at the same or different time instants. We also show how the developed binary outcome analysis and decision making approach can be extended to include more than two possible outcomes. To show how the overall set of introduced models and methods can be used in practice and as an example, we apply them to single cell data of an intracellular regulatory molecule called Phosphatase and Tensin homolog (PTEN) in a p53 system, in wild-type and abnormal, e.g., mutant cells. These molecules are involved in tumor suppression, cell cycle regulation and apoptosis. The unified signaling outcome modeling framework presented here can be applied to various organisms ranging from simple ones such as viruses, bacteria, yeast, and lower metazoans, to more complex organisms such as mammalian cells. Ultimately, this signaling outcome modeling approach can be useful for better understanding of transition from physiological to pathological conditions such as inflammation, various cancers and autoimmune diseases.Brief SummaryCells are supposed to make correct decisions, i.e., respond properly to various signals and initiate certain cellular functions, based on the signals they receive from the surrounding environment. Due to signal transduction noise, signaling malfunctions or other factors, cells may respond differently to the same input signals, which may result in incorrect cell decisions. Modeling and quantification of decision making processes and signaling outcomes in cells have emerged as important research areas in recent years. Here we present univariate and multivariate data-driven statistical models and methods for analyzing dynamic decision making processes and signaling outcomes. Furthermore, we exemplify the methods using single cell data generated by a p53 system, in wild-type and abnormal cells.

    AbstractIn plant biology, transient expression analysis plays a vital role to provide a fast method to study the gene of interest and subsequently leads the path to develop an improved crop variety with better agronomic traits. In this study, we have reported a rapid and efficient method for transient expression in Cannabis sativa seedlings using Agrobacterium tumefaciens-mediated transformation. A. tumefaciens strain EHA105 carrying the pCAMBIA1301 construct with uidA gene was used to transform cannabis seedlings and the GUS assay was used to detect the uidA expression. A 1% hydrogen peroxide (H2O2) solution was used for both seed sterilization and rapid germination steps. Transient transformation revealed that both cotyledons and young true leaves are amenable to transformation. Comparison to Nicotiana tabacum (tobacco) showed that cannabis seedlings were less susceptible to transformation with Agrobacterium tumefaciens. The susceptibility to Agrobacterium infection also varied with the different cannabis cultivars. The method established in this study has potential to be an important tool for gene-function studies and genetic improvement in cannabis.

    AbstractMicroglia interact with neurons to facilitate synapse plasticity; however, signal transducers between microglia and neuron remain unknown. Here, using in vitro organotypic hippocampal slice cultures and transient MCAO in genetically-engineered mice in vivo, we report that at 24 h post-ischemia microglia release BDNF to downregulate glutamatergic and GABAergic synapses within the peri-infarct area. Analysis of the CA1 hippocampal formation in vitro shows that proBDNF and mBDNF downregulate glutamatergic dendritic spines and gephyrin scaffold stability through p75NTR and TrkB receptors respectively. Post-MCAO, we report that in the peri- infarct area and in the corresponding contralateral hemisphere similar neuroplasticity occur through microglia activation and gephyrin phosphorylation at Ser268, Ser270 in vivo. Targeted deletion of the Bdnf gene in microglia or GphnS268A/S270A (phospho-null) point-mutations protect against ischemic brain damage, neuroinflamation and synapse downregulation normally seen post-MCAO. Collectively, we report that gephyrin phosphorylation and microglia derived BDNF faciliate synapse plasticity after transient ischemia.

    AbstractXenobiotic resistance is commonly found in species with short generation times such as bacteria, annual plants, and insects. Nevertheless, the fundamental evolutionary principles that govern the spread of resistance alleles hold true for species with longer generation times. One such example could occur with sea lamprey (Petromyzon marinus), a parasitic invasive species in the Laurentian Great Lakes that decimated native fish populations prior to its control with the pesticide 3-trifluoromethyl-4-nitrophenol (TFM). Since the 1950s, tributaries have been treated annually with TFM, where treatments effectively remove most, but not all, larval sea lamprey. We developed an eco-genetic model of sea lamprey to examine factors affecting the evolution of resistance and found that resistance alleles rapidly rise to fixation after 40–80 years of treatment, despite the species’ relatively long generation time (4–7 years). The absence of natal homing allows resistant individuals to spread quickly throughout the entire system, but also makes the early detection of resistance challenging. High costs of resistance and density independent reproduction can delay, but not prevent, the onset of resistance. These results illustrate that sea lamprey have the potential to evolve resistance to their primary control agent in the near future, highlighting the urgent need for alternative controls.

    eLife digest Plants, animals and other living things grow and develop over their lifetimes: for example, oak trees come from acorns and chickens begin their lives as eggs. To achieve these transformations, the cells in those living things must grow, divide and change their shape and other features. Plants and animals specify the directions in which their cells will grow and develop by gathering specific proteins to one side of the cells. This makes one side different from all the other sides, which the cells use as an internal compass that points in one direction. To align their internal compasses, animal cells touch one another and often move around inside the body. Plant cells, on the other hand, are surrounded by a wall that keeps them apart and prevents them from moving around. So how do plant cells align their internal compasses? Scientists have long thought that a protein called GNOM aligns the internal compasses of plant cells. The hypothesis proposes that GNOM gathers another protein, called PIN1, to one side of a cell. PIN1 would then pump a plant hormone known as auxin out of this first cell and, in doing so, would also drain auxin away from the cell on the opposite side. In this second cell, GNOM would then gather PIN1 to the side facing the first cell, and this process would repeat until all the cells' compasses were aligned. To test this hypothesis, Verna et al. combined microscopy with genetic approaches to study how cells' compasses are aligned in the leaves of a plant called Arabidopsis thaliana. The experiments revealed that auxin needs to move from cell-to-cell to align the cells’ compasses. However, contrary to the above hypothesis, this movement of auxin was not sufficient: the cells also needed to be able to detect and respond to the auxin that entered them. Along with controlling how auxin moved between the cells, GNOM also regulated how the cells responded to the auxin. These findings reveal how plants specify which directions their cells grow and develop. In the future, this knowledge may eventually aid efforts to improve crop yields by controlling the growth and development of crop plants. Plants coordinate the polarity of hundreds of cells during vein formation, but how they do so is unclear. The prevailing hypothesis proposes that GNOM, a regulator of membrane trafficking, positions PIN-FORMED auxin transporters to the correct side of the plasma membrane; the resulting cell-to-cell, polar transport of auxin would coordinate tissue cell polarity and induce vein formation. Contrary to predictions of the hypothesis, we find that vein formation occurs in the absence of PIN-FORMED or any other intercellular auxin-transporter; that the residual auxin-transport-independent vein-patterning activity relies on auxin signaling; and that a GNOM-dependent signal acts upstream of both auxin transport and signaling to coordinate tissue cell polarity and induce vein formation. Our results reveal synergism between auxin transport and signaling, and their unsuspected control by GNOM in the coordination of tissue cell polarity during vein patterning, one of the most informative expressions of tissue cell polarization in plants.

    Abstract Revealing drivers of variation in resource specialization is a long-standing goal in ecological and evolutionary research. As a general prediction, the degree of resource specialization increases towards lower latitudes. Although herbivorous insects are one of the best-studied consumer groups, factors determining the degree of specialization on large spatial scales are poorly understood. Herein, we focused on the fundamental host breadth of 246 herbivorous butterfly species distributed across the Japanese archipelago. Using Bayesian Structural Equation Modeling based on information of pooled geographical occurrence and host use, we show that local butterfly communities tend to become more specialized towards higher latitudes, a pattern that is opposite to predictions from classical hypotheses. We also found that the pattern is mainly driven by factors related to climate, butterfly diversity, and body size in each community. Our results re-emphasize the importance of current climate as a regulating factor for butterfly host breadth and morphology.

    AbstractClinical observations have indicated that patients with Gaucher disease or Fabry disease are at increased risk of cancer. However, a systematic evaluation of the oncogenic effects of causal mutations of lysosomal storage diseases (LSDs) has been lacking. Here we report a comprehensive association analysis between potentially pathogenic germline mutations in LSD genes and cancer interrogating genomic (or exomic) variant datasets derived from the Pan-Cancer Analysis of Whole Genomes project (case cohort), the 1000 Genomes project (primary control cohort), and the Exome Aggregation Consortium that does not include The Cancer Genome Atlas subset (validation control cohort). We show that potentially pathogenic variants (PPVs) in 42 LSD genes are significantly enriched in cancer patients in a histology-dependent manner, cancer risk is higher in individuals with a greater number of PPVs, and cancer develops earlier in PPV carriers. Analysis of tumor genomic and transcriptomic data from the pancreatic adenocarcinoma cohort revealed potential mechanisms that might be involved in the oncogenic contribution of PPVs. Our findings extend the mechanistic understanding of inherited cancer susceptibility and highlight the promise of harnessing available therapeutic strategies to restore lysosomal function for personalized cancer prevention.
