Autoimmune diseases are commonly associated with a polygenic inheritance pattern. In rare instances, causal monogenic variants have been identified. The study by Liu et al. in this issue of the JCI provides an example of monogenic variants occurring in patients with IgG4-related disease (IgG4-RD). The authors investigated a familial cluster of IgG4-RD that consisted of an affected father and two daughters; the mother was unaffected.

Posttranslational modifications can enhance immunogenicity of self-proteins. In several conditions, including hypertension, systemic lupus erythematosus, and heart failure, isolevuglandins (IsoLGs) are formed by lipid peroxidation and covalently bond with protein lysine residues. Here, we show that the murine class I major histocompatibility complex (MHC-I) variant H-2Db uniquely presents isoLG-modified peptides and developed a computational pipeline that identifies structural features for MHC-I

Neutrophil infiltration occurs in a variety of liver diseases, but it is unclear how neutrophils and hepatocytes interact. Neutrophils generally use granule proteases to digest phagocytosed bacteria and foreign substances or neutralize them in neutrophil extracellular traps. In certain pathological states, granule proteases play a destructive role against the host as well.

CD44 is associated with a high risk of metastasis, recurrence, and drug resistance in various cancers. Here we report that platelet endothelial aggregation receptor 1 (PEAR1) is a CD44 chaperone protein that protected CD44 from endocytosis-mediated degradation and enhances cleavage of the CD44 intracellular domain (CD44-ICD). Furthermore, we found that lysyl oxidase–like protein 2 (LOXL2), an endogenous ligand of PEAR1, bound to the PEAR1-EMI domain and facilitated the interaction between PEAR1

Cell cycle regulation is largely abnormal in cancers. Molecular understanding and therapeutic targeting of the aberrant cell cycle are essential. Here, we identified that an underappreciated serine/threonine kinase, cyclin-dependent kinase–like 3 (CDKL3), crucially drives rapid cell cycle progression and cell growth in cancers. With regard to mechanism, CDKL3 localizes in the nucleus and associates with specific cyclin to directly phosphorylate retinoblastoma (Rb) for quiescence exit.
