Uncovering G protein-coupled receptor kinase-5 as a histone deacetylase kinase in the nucleus of cardiomyocytes.

ABSTRACT: G protein-coupled receptor (GPCR) kinases (GRKs) are critical regulators of cellular signaling and function. In cardiomyocytes, GRK2 and GRK5 are two GRKs important for myocardial regulation, and both have been shown to be up-regulated in the dysfunctional heart. We report that increased levels and activity of GRK5 in failing myocardium may have unique significance due to its nuclear localization, a property not shared by GRK2. We find that transgenic mice with elevated cardiac GRK5 levels have exaggerated hypertrophy and early heart failure compared with control mice after pressure overload. This pathology is not present in cardiac GRK2-overexpressing mice or in mice with overexpression of a mutant GRK5 that is excluded from the nucleus. Nuclear accumulation of GRK5 is enhanced in myocytes after aortic banding in vivo and in vitro in myocytes after increased G alpha q activity, the trigger for pressure-overload hypertrophy. GRK5 enhances activation of MEF2 in concert with Gq signals, demonstrating that nuclear localized GRK5 regulates gene transcription via a pathway critically linked to myocardial hypertrophy. Mechanistically, we show that this is due to GRK5 acting, in a non-GPCR manner, as a class II histone deacetylase (HDAC) kinase because it can associate with and phosphorylate the myocyte enhancer factor-2 repressor, HDAC5. Moreover, significant HDAC activity can be found with GRK5 in the heart. Our data show that GRK5 is a nuclear HDAC kinase that plays a key role in maladaptive cardiac hypertrophy apparently independent of any action directly on GPCRs.

Agonist dose-dependent phosphorylation by protein kinase A and G protein-coupled receptor kinase regulates beta2 adrenoceptor coupling to G(i) proteins in cardiomyocytes.

Project description:Adrenoceptors receptors (ARs) play a pivotal role in regulating cardiovascular response to catecholamines during stress. beta(2)ARs, prototypical G protein-coupled receptors (GPCRs), expressed in animal hearts, display dual coupling to both G(s) and G(i) proteins to control the adenylyl cyclase-cAMP dependent protein kinase A (PKA) pathway to regulate contraction responses. Here, we showed that the beta(2)AR coupling to G(i) proteins was agonist dose-dependent and occurred only at high concentrations in mouse cardiac myocytes. Both the beta(2)AR-induced PKA activity, measured by fluorescence resonance energy transfer (FRET) imaging, and the increase in myocyte contraction rate displayed sensitivity to the G(i) inhibitor pertussis toxin (PTX). Further studies revealed that activated beta(2)ARs underwent PKA phosphorylation at a broad range of agonist concentrations. Disruption of the PKA phosphorylation sites on the beta(2)AR blocked receptor/G(i) coupling. However, a sufficient beta(2)AR/G(i) coupling was also dependent on the G protein-coupled receptor kinase (GRK)-mediated phosphorylation of the receptors, which only occurred at high concentrations of agonist (> or = 100 nm). Disruption of the GRK phosphorylation sites on the beta(2)AR blocked receptor internalization and coupling to G(i) proteins, probably by preventing the receptor's transportation to access G(i) proteins. Furthermore, neither PKA nor GRK site mutated receptors displayed sensitivity to the G(i)-specific inhibitor, G(i)CT. Together, our studies revealed distinct roles of PKA and GRK phosphorylation of the beta(2)AR for agonist dose-dependent coupling to G(i) proteins in cardiac myocytes, which may protect cells from overstimulation under high concentrations of catecholamines.

Associations among dietary non-fiber carbohydrate, ruminal microbiota and epithelium G-protein-coupled receptor, and histone deacetylase regulations in goats.

Project description:BackgroundDiet-derived short-chain fatty acids (SCFAs) in the rumen have broad effects on the health and growth of ruminants. The microbe-G-protein-coupled receptor (GPR) and microbe-histone deacetylase (HDAC) axes might be the major pathway mediating these effects. Here, an integrated approach of transcriptome sequencing and 16S rRNA gene sequencing was applied to investigate the synergetic responses of rumen epithelium and rumen microbiota to the increased intake of dietary non-fiber carbohydrate (NFC) from 15 to 30% in the goat model. In addition to the analysis of the microbial composition and identification of the genes and signaling pathways related to the differentially expressed GPRs and HDACs, the combined data including the expression of HDACs and GPRs, the relative abundance of the bacteria, and the molar proportions of the individual SCFAs were used to identify the significant co-variation of the SCFAs, clades, and transcripts.ResultsThe major bacterial clades promoted by the 30% NFC diet were related to lactate metabolism and cellulose degradation in the rumen. The predominant functions of the GPR and HDAC regulation network, under the 30% NFC diet, were related to the maintenance of epithelium integrity and the promotion of animal growth. In addition, the molar proportion of butyrate was inversely correlated with the expression of HDAC1, and the relative abundance of the bacteria belonging to Clostridum_IV was positively correlated with the expression of GPR1.ConclusionsThis study revealed that the effects of rumen microbiota-derived SCFA on epithelium growth and metabolism were mediated by the GPR and HDAC regulation network. An understanding of these mechanisms and their relationships to dietary components provides better insights into the modulation of ruminal fermentation and metabolism in the promotion of livestock production.

Nuclear effects of G-protein receptor kinase 5 on histone deacetylase 5-regulated gene transcription in heart failure.

Project description:G-protein receptor kinases (GRKs) modulate cardiac ?-adrenergic signaling. GRK5 is upregulated in heart failure, and a gain-of-function polymorphism substituting leucine for wild-type glutamine at amino acid 41 (GRK5-Leu41) is associated with improved outcomes in heart failure and hypertension. GRK5 is distinguished by partial nuclear localization and class II histone deacetylases (HDAC) kinase activity that is postulated to regulate G?q-stimulated cardiac gene expression.We used in vitro tissue culture and in vivo mouse compound genetic models to examine the effects of GRK5 on HDAC phosphorylation, nucleo-cytoplasmic HDAC transport, and G?q-dependent transcriptional regulation. In vitro, GRK5 stimulated HDAC5 nuclear export only in the context of G?q signaling stimulated by angiotensin II. GRK5-Gln41 and Leu41 were similar inducers of HDAC5 nucleo-cytoplasmic shuttling. In vivo, GRK5-Gln41 and-Leu41 partitioned equally to nuclear and nonnuclear myocardial fractions. GRK5 increased cardiac HDAC5 phosphorylation and reversed the increase in nuclear HDAC5 content seen with cardiomyocyte-autonomous G?q overexpression. Deep RNA sequencing showed few changes in gene expression induced by GRK5 overexpression or ablation alone, but GRK5 overexpression normalized steady-state expression levels of 48% (96 of 200) of all G?q down-regulated mRNAs.GRK5 is a transcriptional modifier of a subset of G?q-downregulated genes, acting in opposition to the pathological effects of G?q and normalizing levels of these transcripts. This transcriptional coregulator effect may act in concert with ?-adrenergic receptor desensitization to protect against heart failure decompensation.

Short-chain fatty acids enhance nuclear receptor activity through mitogen-activated protein kinase activation and histone deacetylase inhibition.

Project description:In this study, we demonstrate that the pervasive xenobiotic methoxyacetic acid and the commonly prescribed anticonvulsant valproic acid, both short-chain fatty acids (SCFAs), dramatically increase cellular sensitivity to estrogens, progestins, and other nuclear hormone receptor ligands. These compounds do not mimic endogenous hormones but rather act to enhance the transcriptional efficacy of ligand activated nuclear hormone receptors by up to 8-fold in vitro and in vivo. Detailed characterization of their mode of action revealed that these SCFAs function as both activators of p42/p44 mitogen-activated protein kinase and as inhibitors of histone deacetylases at doses that parallel known exposure levels. Our results define a class of compounds that possess a dual mechanism of action and function as hormone sensitizers. These findings prompt an evaluation of previously unrecognized drug-drug interactions in women who are administered exogenous hormones while exposed to certain xenobiotic SCFAs. Furthermore, our study highlights the need to structure future screening programs to identify additional hormone sensitizers.

Multitarget Anticancer Agents Based on Histone Deacetylase and Protein Kinase CK2 inhibitors.

Project description:The design of multitarget drugs (MTDs) has become an innovative approach for the search of effective treatments in complex diseases such as cancer. In this work, we communicate our efforts in the design of multi-targeting histone deacetylase (HDAC) and protein kinase CK2 inhibitors as a novel therapeutic strategy against cancer. Using tetrabromobenzotriazole (TBB) and 2-dimethylamino-4,5,6,7-tetrabromo-benzimidazole (DMAT) as scaffolds for CK2 inhibition, and a hydroxamate to coordinate the zinc atom present in the active site of HDAC (zinc binding group, ZBG), new multitarget inhibitors have been designed and synthesized. According to the in vitro assays, N-Hydroxy-6-(4,5,6,7-tetrabromo-2-(dimethylamino)-1H-benzo[d]imidazol-1-yl)hexanamide (11b) is the most interesting compound, with IC50 values of 0.66; 1.46 and 3.67 µM. for HDAC6; HDAC1 and CK2; respectively. Cellular assays on different cancer cell lines rendered promising results for N-Hydroxy-8-(4,5,6,7-tetrabromo-2-(dimethylamino)-1H-benzo[d]imidazol-1-yl)octanamide (11d). This inhibitor presented the highest cytotoxic activity, proapoptotic capability, and the best mitochondria-targeting and multidrug-circumventing properties, thus being the most promising drug candidate for further in vivo studies.

AMP-activated protein kinase regulates beta-catenin transcription via histone deacetylase 5.

Project description:AMP-activated protein kinase (AMPK) is a key regulator of energy metabolism; it is inhibited under obese conditions and is activated by exercise and by many anti-diabetic drugs. Emerging evidence also suggests that AMPK regulates cell differentiation, but the underlying mechanisms are unclear. We hypothesized that AMPK regulates cell differentiation via altering β-catenin expression, which involves phosphorylation of class IIa histone deacetylase 5 (HDAC5). In both C3H10T1/2 cells and mouse embryonic fibroblasts (MEFs), AMPK activity was positively correlated with β-catenin content. Chemical inhibition of HDAC5 increased β-catenin mRNA expression. HDAC5 overexpression reduced and HDAC5 knockdown increased H3K9 acetylation and cellular β-catenin content. HDAC5 formed a complex with myocyte enhancer factor-2 to down-regulate β-catenin mRNA expression. AMPK phosphorylated HDAC5, which promoted HDAC5 exportation from the nucleus; mutation of two phosphorylation sites in HDAC5, Ser-259 and -498, abolished the regulatory role of AMPK on β-catenin expression. In conclusion, AMPK promotes β-catenin expression through phosphorylation of HDAC5, which reduces HDAC5 interaction with the β-catenin promoter via myocyte enhancer factor-2. Thus, the data indicate that AMPK regulates cell differentiation and development via cross-talk with the wingless and Int (Wnt)/β-catenin signaling pathway.

G-protein-coupled receptor kinase 2 terminates G-protein-coupled receptor function in steroid hormone 20-hydroxyecdysone signaling.

Project description:G-protein-coupled receptors (GPCRs) transmit extracellular signals across the cell membrane. GPCR kinases (GRKs) desensitize GPCR signals in the cell membrane. However, the role and mechanism of GRKs in the desensitization of steroid hormone signaling are unclear. In this study, we propose that GRK2 is phosphorylated by protein kinase C (PKC) in response to induction by the steroid hormone 20-hydroxyecdysone (20E), which determines its translocation to the cell membrane of the lepidopteran Helicoverpa armigera. GRK2 protein expression is increased during the metamorphic stage because of induction by 20E. Knockdown of GRK2 in larvae causes accelerated pupation, an increase in 20E-response gene expression, and advanced apoptosis and metamorphosis. 20E induces translocation of GRK2 from the cytoplasm to the cell membrane via steroid hormone ecdysone-responsive GPCR (ErGPCR-2). GRK2 is phosphorylated by PKC on serine 680 after induction by 20E, which leads to the translocation of GRK2 to the cell membrane. GRK2 interacts with ErGPCR-2. These data indicate that GRK2 terminates the ErGPCR-2 function in 20E signaling in the cell membrane by a negative feedback mechanism.

Negative regulation of histone deacetylase 8 activity by cyclic AMP-dependent protein kinase A.

Project description:Histone deacetylases (HDACs) are enzymes that catalyze the removal of acetyl groups from lysine residues of histone and nonhistone proteins. Recent studies suggest that they are key regulators of many cellular events, including cell proliferation and cancer development. Human class I HDACs possess homology to the yeast RPD3 protein and include HDAC1, HDAC2, HDAC3, and HDAC8. While HDAC1, HDAC2, and HDAC3 have been characterized extensively, almost nothing is known about HDAC8. Here we report that HDAC8 is phosphorylated by cyclic AMP-dependent protein kinase A (PKA) in vitro and in vivo. The PKA phosphoacceptor site of HDAC8 is Ser(39), a nonconserved residue among class I HDACs. Mutation of Ser(39) to Ala enhances the deacetylase activity of HDAC8. In contrast, mutation of Ser(39) to Glu or induction of HDAC8 phosphorylation by forskolin, a potent activator of adenyl cyclase, decreases HDAC8's enzymatic activity. Remarkably, inhibition of HDAC8 activity by hyperphosphorylation leads to hyperacetylation of histones H3 and H4, suggesting that PKA-mediated phosphorylation of HDAC8 plays a central role in the overall acetylation status of histones.

Structural insights into G protein-coupled receptor kinase function.

Project description:The atomic structure of a protein can greatly advance our understanding of molecular recognition and catalysis, properties of fundamental importance in signal transduction. However, a single structure is incapable of fully describing how a protein functions, particularly when allostery is involved. Recent advances in the structure and function of G protein-coupled receptor (GPCR) kinases (GRKs) have concentrated on the mechanism of their inhibition by small and large molecules. These studies have generated a wealth of new information on the conformational flexibility of these enzymes, which opens new avenues for the development of selective chemical probes and provides deeper insights into the molecular basis for activation of these enzymes by GPCRs and phospholipids.

G protein-coupled receptor kinase 2 promotes cardiac hypertrophy.

Project description:The increase in protein activity and upregulation of G-protein coupled receptor kinase 2 (GRK2) is a hallmark of cardiac stress and heart failure. Inhibition of GRK2 improved cardiac function and survival and diminished cardiac remodeling in various animal heart failure models. The aim of the present study was to investigate the effects of GRK2 on cardiac hypertrophy and dissect potential molecular mechanisms. In mice we observed increased GRK2 mRNA and protein levels following transverse aortic constriction (TAC). Conditional GRK2 knockout mice showed attenuated hypertrophic response with preserved ventricular geometry 6 weeks after TAC operation compared to wild-type animals. In isolated neonatal rat ventricular cardiac myocytes stimulation with angiotensin II and phenylephrine enhanced GRK2 expression leading to enhanced signaling via protein kinase B (PKB or Akt), consecutively inhibiting glycogen synthase kinase 3 beta (GSK3?), such promoting nuclear accumulation and activation of nuclear factor of activated T-cells (NFAT). Cardiac myocyte hypertrophy induced by in vitro GRK2 overexpression increased the cytosolic interaction of GRK2 and phosphoinositide 3-kinase ? (PI3K?). Moreover, inhibition of PI3K? as well as GRK2 knock down prevented Akt activation resulting in halted NFAT activity and reduced cardiac myocyte hypertrophy. Our data show that enhanced GRK2 expression triggers cardiac hypertrophy by GRK2-PI3K? mediated Akt phosphorylation and subsequent inactivation of GSK3?, resulting in enhanced NFAT activity.
