A comparative proteome analysis links tyrosine kinase 2 (Tyk2) to the regulation of cellular glucose and lipid metabolism in response to poly(I:C).

ABSTRACT: Tyrosine kinase 2 (Tyk2) is an integral part of the Janus kinase-signal transducer and activator of transcription (JAK-STAT) pathway which relays intracellular signals of various cytokines. Tyk2 crucially contributes to host defense mechanisms against microbial pathogens and to tumor surveillance but also facilitates immune pathologies. Here we investigated the impact of Tyk2 on the macrophage proteome using the synthetic double-stranded RNA analog polyinosinic acid-polycytidylic acid (poly(I:C)) as a mimicry of viral infections. By means of 2D-DIGE in connection with PMF obtained by MALDI-MS and sequence tag determination by MS/MS we unambiguously identified eighteen protein spots corresponding to sixteen distinct proteins that are regulated by poly(I:C) and differentially expressed between wildtype (WT) and Tyk2-deficient macrophages. The majority of these proteins are functionally assigned to cellular immune responses and to metabolism. We show for selected metabolic enzymes, i.e. triosephosphate isomerase (TIM), ATP-citrate synthase (ACLY) and long-chain-fatty-acid-CoA ligase 4 (ACSL4), that Tyk2 affects protein expression transcriptionally and post-transcriptionally. We furthermore confirm the involvement of Tyk2 in the regulation of lipid and carbohydrate metabolism at the level of metabolites. Taken together, our results provide new evidence for important functions of Tyk2 at the molecular interface between innate immunity and cellular metabolism.

Project description:OBJECTIVE:We hypothesized that DA and L-DOPA derived from nutritional tyrosine and the resultant observed postprandial plasma excursions of L-DOPA and DA might affect glucose tolerance via their ability to be taken-up by beta cells and inhibit glucose-stimulated β-cell insulin secretion. METHODS:To investigate a possible circuit between meal-stimulated 3,4-dihydroxy-L-phenylalanine (L-DOPA) and dopamine (DA) production in the GI tract and pancreatic β-cells, we: 1) mapped GI mucosal expression of tyrosine hydroxylase (TH) and aromatic amino acid decarboxylase (AADC); 2) measured L-DOPA and DA content of GI mucosal tissues following meal challenges with different L-tyrosine (TYR) content, 3) determined whether meal TYR content impacts plasma insulin and glucose excursions; and 4) characterized postprandial plasma excursions of L-DOPA and DA in response to meal tyrosine content in rodents and a population of bariatric surgery patients. Next, we characterized: 1) the metabolic transformation of TYR and L-DOPA into DA in vitro using purified islet tissue; 2) the metabolic transformation of orally administrated stable isotope labeled TYR into pancreatic DA, and 3) using a nuclear medicine technique, we studied endocrine beta cells in situ release and binding of DA in response to a glucose challenge. RESULTS:We demonstrate in rodents that intestinal content and circulatory concentrations L-DOPA and DA, plasma glucose and insulin are responsive to the tyrosine (TYR) content of a test meal. Intestinal expression of two enzymes, Tyrosine hydroxylase (TH) and Aromatic Amino acid Decarboxylase (AADC), essential to the transformation of TYR to DA was mapped and the metabolism of metabolism of TYR to DA was traced in human islets and a rodent beta cell line in vitro and from gut to the pancreas in vivo. Lastly, we show that β cells secrete and bind DA in situ in response to glucose stimulation. CONCLUSIONS:We provide proof-of-principle evidence for the existence of a novel postprandial circuit of glucose homeostasis dependent on nutritional tyrosine. DA and L-DOPA derived from nutritional tyrosine may serve to defend against hypoglycemia via inhibition of glucose-stimulated β-cell insulin secretion as proposed by the anti-incretin hypothesis.
