    Abstract: Developmental dysplasia of the hip (DDH) is one of the most common congenital skeletal malformations; however, its etiology remains unclear. Here, we conducted whole-exome sequencing in eight DDH families followed by targeted sequencing of 68 sporadic DDH patients. We identified likely pathogenic variants in the LRP1 (low-density lipoprotein receptor-related protein 1) gene in two families and seven unrelated patients. All patients harboring the LRP1 variants presented a typical DDH phenotype. The heterozygous Lrp1 knockout (KO) mouse ( Lrp1 +/− ) showed phenotypes recapitulating the human DDH phenotypes, indicating Lrp1 loss of function causes DDH. Lrp1 knockin mice with a missense variant corresponding to a human variant identified in DDH ( Lrp1 R1783W ) also presented DDH phenotypes, which were milder in heterozygotes and severer in homozygotes than those of the Lrp1 KO mouse. The timing of triradiate cartilage development was brought forward 1 or 2 wk earlier in the LRP-deficient mice, which leads to malformation of the acetabulum and femoral head. Furthermore, Lrp1 deficiency caused a significant decrease of chondrogenic ability in vitro. During the chondrogenic induction of mice bone marrow stem cells and ATDC5 (an inducible chondrogenic cell line), Lrp1 deficiency caused decreased autophagy levels with significant β-catenin up-regulation and suppression of chondrocyte marker genes. The expression of chondrocyte markers was rescued by PNU-74654 (a β-catenin antagonist) in an shRNA-Lrp1–expressed ATDC5 cell. Our study reveals a critical role of LRP1 in the etiology and pathogenesis of DDH, opening an avenue for its treatment.

    Abstract: Intrinsically disordered proteins (IDPs) SAID1/2 are hypothetic dentin sialophosphoprotein-like proteins, but their true functions are unknown. Here, we identified SAID1/2 as negative regulators of SERRATE (SE), a core factor in miRNA biogenesis complex (microprocessor). Loss-of-function double mutants of said1; said2 caused pleiotropic developmental defects and thousands of differentially expressed genes that partially overlapped with those in se. said1; said2 also displayed increased assembly of microprocessor and elevated accumulation of microRNAs (miRNAs). Mechanistically, SAID1/2 promote pre-mRNA processing 4 kinase A-mediated phosphorylation of SE, causing its degradation in vivo. Unexpectedly, SAID1/2 have strong binding affinity to hairpin-structured pri-miRNAs and can sequester them from SE. Moreover, SAID1/2 directly inhibit pri-miRNA processing by microprocessor in vitro. Whereas SAID1/2 did not impact SE subcellular compartmentation, the proteins themselves exhibited liquid–liquid phase condensation that is nucleated on SE. Thus, we propose that SAID1/2 reduce miRNA production through hijacking pri-miRNAs to prevent microprocessor activity while promoting SE phosphorylation and its destabilization in Arabidopsis.

    Abstract: Gross domestic product (GDP) summarizes a vast amount of economic information in a single monetary metric that is widely used by decision makers around the world. However, GDP fails to capture fully the contributions of nature to economic activity and human well-being. To address this critical omission, we develop a measure of gross ecosystem product (GEP) that summarizes the value of ecosystem services in a single monetary metric. We illustrate the measurement of GEP through an application to the Chinese province of Qinghai, showing that the approach is tractable using available data. Known as the “water tower of Asia,” Qinghai is the source of the Mekong, Yangtze, and Yellow Rivers, and indeed, we find that water-related ecosystem services make up nearly two-thirds of the value of GEP for Qinghai. Importantly most of these benefits accrue downstream. In Qinghai, GEP was greater than GDP in 2000 and three-fourths as large as GDP in 2015 as its market economy grew. Large-scale investment in restoration resulted in improvements in the flows of ecosystem services measured in GEP (127.5%) over this period. Going forward, China is using GEP in decision making in multiple ways, as part of a transformation to inclusive, green growth. This includes investing in conservation of ecosystem assets to secure provision of ecosystem services through transregional compensation payments.
