Before confluence, proliferation of winner cells has often been hypothesised to gov- ern competition. Conversely, elimination of loser cells is thought to induce cell proliferation in its vicinity. However, causality is challenging to establish. To address this, we compute spatiotemporal signatures of competitive interac- tions using K-function clustering analysis. For this, we acquire long-term time lapses of two examples of mechanical (ScrKD) and biochemical (RasV12) compe- tition. We then segment cells, track them, and detect mitoses as well as elimina- tions. Finally, we perform K-function clustering to highlight spatiotemporal regions in which wild-type cell proliferation is enhanced or repressed around an elimination event. Our analysis reveals striking differences between the two types of competition. In the ScrKD competition, elimination seems driven by diffuse proliferation that does not cluster near the immediate elimination site. In contrast, RasV12 cell elimination is preceded by clustered proliferation of wild-type cells in the vicinity of the eventual RasV12 extrusion. Following loser elimination, an increase in local wild-type cell proliferation is observed in both competitions, although the timing and duration of these responses vary. This study not only sheds light on the diverse mechanisms of cell competition but also underscores the complexity of cellular interactions in tissue dynamics, providing new perspectives on cellular quality control and a new quantitative approach to characterise these interactions.</p>","PeriodicalId":18735,"journal":{"name":"Molecular Biology of the Cell","volume":" ","pages":"mbcE24100481"},"PeriodicalIF":3.1,"publicationDate":"2025-03-26","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143729936","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"生物学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Using superresolution imaging, we find that phosphomimetic Centrobin fails to accurately relocalize in mitosis. We propose that Pp4 regulates the timely relocalization of Cnb in mitosis to establish two molecularly distinct centrosomes. In addition, Pp4 is also necessary to maintain MTOC activity in interphase, ensuring biased centrosome segregation. Mechanistically, Pp4 could regulate centrosome asymmetry by dephosphorylating both Cnb and gamma-Tubulin.

Modern techniques have shifted toward probing molecular effectors to quantify these transitions, offering more precise quantification and mechanistic understanding. However, challenges remain in cases where the molecular signals are ambiguous, complicating the assignment of cell fate. During viral infection, programmed cell death (PCD) pathways, including apoptosis, necroptosis, and pyroptosis, exhibit complex signaling and molecular cross-talk. This can lead to simultaneous activation of multiple PCD pathways, which confounds assignment of cell fate based on molecular information alone. To address this challenge, we employed deep learning-based image classification of dying cells to analyze PCD in single herpes simplex virus-1 (HSV-1)-infected cells. Our approach reveals that despite heterogeneous activation of signaling, individual cells adopt predominantly prototypical death morphologies. Nevertheless, PCD is executed heterogeneously within a uniform population of virus-infected cells and varies over time.
