    Crimes Without Punishment: Violence Against Women in Guatemala

    In Guatemala, impunity for the battering and killing of women is at such levels that perpetrators rightly feel confident that there is no price to pay for their unrestrained violence. Each year the number of women murdered rises precipitously, and there is general consensus that the impunity enjoyed by those responsible is a significant factor in the escalating numbers of killings in Guatemala. As a result, victims are fleeing persecution to the United States, seeking, with little success, asylum. One of the main factors contributing to the delay in deciding asylum cases is the government\u27s fear of opening the floodgates, i.e., the belief that violence against women, including domestic violence, is so prevalent around the world that if asylum were to be granted to one victim, it would cause a deluge of women fleeing such abuse to come to the United States. This report presents information on the current state of femicide in Guatemala. It examines the meaning of the term femicide, the causes leading to escalated violence against women, and the Guatemalan government\u27s response to the rise in violence against women. Finally, it details recommendations for action by the Guatemalan government and other relevant actors in response to this phenomenon

    α5β1 integrin recycling promotes Arp2/3-independent cancer cell invasion via the formin FHOD3

    Invasive migration in 3D extracellular matrix (ECM) is crucial to cancer metastasis, yet little is known of the molecular mechanisms that drive reorganization of the cytoskeleton as cancer cells disseminate in vivo. 2D Rac-driven lamellipodial migration is well understood, but how these features apply to 3D migration is not clear. We find that lamellipodia-like protrusions and retrograde actin flow are indeed observed in cells moving in 3D ECM. However, Rab-coupling protein (RCP)-driven endocytic recycling of α5β1 integrin enhances invasive migration of cancer cells into fibronectin-rich 3D ECM, driven by RhoA and filopodial spike-based protrusions, not lamellipodia. Furthermore, we show that actin spike protrusions are Arp2/3-independent. Dynamic actin spike assembly in cells invading in vitro and in vivo is regulated by Formin homology-2 domain containing 3 (FHOD3), which is activated by RhoA/ROCK, establishing a novel mechanism through which the RCP–α5β1 pathway reprograms the actin cytoskeleton to promote invasive migration and local invasion in vivo
