Disease-associated mutations prevent GPR56-collagen III interaction.

ABSTRACT: GPR56 is a member of the adhesion G protein-coupled receptor (GPCR) family. Mutations in GPR56 cause a devastating human brain malformation called bilateral frontoparietal polymicrogyria (BFPP). Using the N-terminal fragment of GPR56 (GPR56(N)) as a probe, we have recently demonstrated that collagen III is the ligand of GPR56 in the developing brain. In this report, we discover a new functional domain in GPR56(N), the ligand binding domain. This domain contains four disease-associated mutations and two N-glycosylation sites. Our study reveals that although glycosylation is not required for ligand binding, each of the four disease-associated mutations completely abolish the ligand binding ability of GPR56. Our data indicates that these four single missense mutations cause BFPP mostly by abolishing the ability of GPR56 to bind to its ligand, collagen III, in addition to affecting GPR56 protein surface expression as previously shown.

Mechanism for adhesion G protein-coupled receptor GPR56-mediated RhoA activation induced by collagen III stimulation.

Project description:GPR56 is a member of the adhesion G protein-coupled receptor (GPCR) family. Despite the importance of GPR56 in brain development, where mutations cause a devastating human brain malformation called bilateral frontoparietal polymicrogyria (BFPP), the signaling mechanism(s) remain largely unknown. Like many other adhesion GPCRs, GPR56 is cleaved via a GPCR autoproteolysis-inducing (GAIN) domain into N- and C-terminal fragments (GPR56N and GPR56C); however, the biological significance of this cleavage is elusive. Taking advantage of the recent identification of a GPR56 ligand and the presence of BFPP-associated mutations, we investigated the molecular mechanism of GPR56 signaling. We demonstrate that ligand binding releases GPR56N from the membrane-bound GPR56C and triggers the association of GPR56C with lipid rafts and RhoA activation. Furthermore, one of the BFPP-associated mutations, L640R, does not affect collagen III-induced lipid raft association of GPR56. Instead, it specifically abolishes collagen III-mediated RhoA activation. Together, these findings reveal a novel signaling mechanism that may apply to other members of the adhesion GPCR family.

The adhesion receptor GPR56 is activated by extracellular matrix collagen III to improve β-cell function.

Project description:AIMS:G-protein coupled receptor 56 (GPR56) is the most abundant islet-expressed G-protein coupled receptor, suggesting a potential role in islet function. This study evaluated islet expression of GPR56 and its endogenous ligand collagen III, and their effects on β-cell function. METHODS:GPR56 and collagen III expression in mouse and human pancreas sections was determined by fluorescence immunohistochemistry. Effects of collagen III on β-cell proliferation, apoptosis, intracellular calcium ([Ca2+]i) and insulin secretion were determined by cellular BrdU incorporation, caspase 3/7 activities, microfluorimetry and radioimmunoassay, respectively. The role of GPR56 in islet vascularisation and innervation was evaluated by immunohistochemical staining for CD31 and TUJ1, respectively, in pancreases from wildtype (WT) and Gpr56-/- mice, and the requirement of GPR56 for normal glucose homeostasis was determined by glucose tolerance tests in WT and Gpr56-/- mice. RESULTS:Immunostaining of mouse and human pancreases revealed that GPR56 was expressed by islet β-cells while collagen III was confined to the peri-islet basement membrane and islet capillaries. Collagen III protected β-cells from cytokine-induced apoptosis, triggered increases in [Ca2+]i and potentiated glucose-induced insulin secretion from WT islets but not from Gpr56-/- islets. Deletion of GPR56 did not affect glucose-induced insulin secretion in vitro and it did not impair glucose tolerance in adult mice. GPR56 was not required for normal islet vascularisation or innervation. CONCLUSION:We have demonstrated that collagen III improves islet function by increasing insulin secretion and protecting against apoptosis. Our data suggest that collagen III may be effective in optimising islet function to improve islet transplantation outcomes, and GPR56 may be a target for the treatment of type 2 diabetes.

Distinctive roles of fibrillar collagen I and collagen III in mediating fibroblast-matrix interaction: A nanoscopic study.

Project description:One major goal in tissue engineering is to create functional materials, mimicking scaffolds in native tissues, to modulate cell function for tissue repair. Collagen is the most abundant structural protein in human body. Though collagen I (COLI) and collagen III (COLIII) are the predominant collagen types in connective tissues and they form stable hybrid fibrils at varied ratios, cell responses to the hybrid matrices are underinvestigated. In this work, we aim to explicate the distinctive roles of COLI and COLIII in fibroblast activation. Unidirectionally aligned COLI, COLIII and COLI-COLIII hybrid nanofibrils were generated via epitaxial growth of collagen on mica. AFM analyses revealed that, with the increase of COLI/COLIII ratio, the fibril width and stiffness increased and the binding affinity of cells to the matrix decreased. A hybrid matrix was found to activate fibroblasts the most effectively, characterized by extensive cell polarization with rigid stress fiber bundles and high α-SMA expression, and by the highest-level of collagen synthesis. It is ascribed to the fine balance between biochemical and biophysical cues achieved on the hybrid matrix. Thus, matrices of aligned COLI-COLIII hybrid fibrils and their derived multifunctional composites can be good candidates of implantation scaffolds for tissue regeneration.

The Von Willebrand Factor A1-Collagen III Interaction Is Independent of Conformation and Type 2 Von Willebrand Disease Phenotype.

Project description:The blood von Willebrand factor (VWF) mediates platelet adhesion to injured vessels by sequestering platelets from blood flow and depositing them to collagen and other exposed subendothelial matrix proteins. This process of capturing platelets to facilitate formation of platelet plugs occurs through transient interactions with platelet glycoprotein Ib? via the VWF A1 domain which also binds collagen. Using a conformationally diverse collection of natively folded and mutation-induced misfolded von Willebrand disease (VWD) variants, we test a recently proposed affinity up-regulation hypothesis which states that collagen binding changes the conformation of the A1 domain to a high-affinity GPIb? binding competent state. With surface plasmon resonance (SPR), we present this diversified collection to collagen and quantify the kinetics of association and dissociation to ascertain the conformational selectivity of collagen. With analytical rheology, we quantify real-time platelet pause times and translocation velocities across a Cu2+ HisTag-chelated and collagen-bound A1 single domain and A1A2A3 tridomain fragment of VWF under shear stress in an ex vivo shear flow microfluidic chamber. In contrast to expected hypothetical outcomes, collagen has limited conformational selectivity for binding A1. A1-collagen binding is independent of gain- or loss-of-function phenotype and under shear stress, platelet translocation pause times on collagen-bound A1A2A3 are either normal or shorter depending on whether A1 is concertedly bound with the A3 domain to collagen. With respect to A1, collagen has an inhibitory role that provides an explanation for the lack of thrombosis in patients with gain-of-function VWD.

Bilateral frontoparietal polymicrogyria, Lennox-Gastaut syndrome, and GPR56 gene mutations.

Project description:PURPOSE:Bilateral frontoparietal polymicrogyria (BFPP) has been reported in sporadic patients and in recessive pedigrees. Eleven mutations in GPR56, a gene encoding an evolutionarily dynamic G-protein-coupled receptor, have been identified in 29 patients from 18 families. The clinical features of BFPP include severe mental retardation, motor and language impairment, and epilepsy. No detailed description of the epilepsy is available for the patients reported to date. We report three consanguineous families in which four affected individuals with BFPP and GPR56 mutations had Lennox-Gastaut syndrome. METHODS:Family studies, brain magnetic resonance imaging (MRI), electroencephalography (EEG)-video recordings, and mutation analysis. RESULTS:In Family 1, with one affected proband, we found an R565W change in the second extracellular loop of GPR56, involving a highly conserved aminoacidic residue. In Family 2, with one affected proband, we found an R79X change affecting the protein N-terminus and predicted to cause a premature truncation with loss of the G-protein-coupled receptor proteolytic site. In family 3, with two affected siblings, we found an R33P substitution in the protein N-terminus, involving a highly conserved aminoacidic residue. Epilepsy, present in all four patients, had started between ages 1 and 8 years, with infantile spasms in one patient and with de novo Lennox-Gastaut syndrome in the remaining three. All patients had Lennox-Gastaut syndrome when last observed, at ages 13 to 32 years. DISCUSSION:Several genes, when mutated, can cause malformations of cortical development that have been associated with the Lennox-Gastaut syndrome. BFPP caused by GPR56 mutations represents an additional, although rare, genetically determined cause of Lennox-Gastaut syndrome.

GPR56/ADGRG1 is a platelet collagen-responsive GPCR and hemostatic sensor of shear force.

Project description:Circulating platelets roll along exposed collagen at vessel injury sites and respond with filipodia protrusion, shape change, and surface area expansion to facilitate platelet adhesion and plug formation. Various glycoproteins were considered to be both collagen responders and mediators of platelet adhesion, yet the signaling kinetics emanating from these receptors do not fully account for the rapid platelet cytoskeletal changes that occur in blood flow. We found the free N-terminal fragment of the adhesion G protein-coupled receptor (GPCR) GPR56 in human plasma and report that GPR56 is the platelet receptor that transduces signals from collagen and blood flow-induced shear force to activate G protein 13 signaling for platelet shape change. Gpr56 -/- mice have prolonged bleeding, defective platelet plug formation, and delayed thrombotic occlusion. Human and mouse blood perfusion studies demonstrated GPR56 and shear-force dependence of platelet adhesion to immobilized collagen. Our work places GPR56 as an initial collagen responder and shear-force transducer that is essential for platelet shape change during hemostasis.

Imbalanced turnover of collagen type III is associated with disease progression and mortality in high-risk chronic kidney disease patients.

Project description:BackgroundTubulointerstitial fibrosis is a major pathological feature in chronic kidney disease (CKD) and collagen type III (COL3) is a major component of the renal fibrotic scar. We hypothesized that a dysregulated turnover of COL3 is an important determinant of CKD progression. We assessed the relationship between fragments reflecting active formation (PRO-C3) and degradation (C3M) of COL3 and CKD disease progression and mortality in a prospective cohort of CKD patients.MethodsWe measured PRO-C3 and C3M in urine (uPRO-C3 and uC3M) and serum (sPRO-C3 and sC3M) of 500 patients from the Renal Impairment in Secondary Care study. Disease progression was defined as a decline in estimated glomerular filtration rate >30% or the start of renal replacement therapy within 12 and 30 months.ResultsLevels of uC3M/creatinine decreased, whereas levels of uPRO-C3/creatinine and sPRO-C3 increased with increasing CKD stage. uC3M/creatinine was inversely and independently associated with disease progression by 12 months {odds ratio [OR] 0.39 [95% confidence interval (CI) 0.18-0.83]; P = 0.01 per doubling of uC3M/creatinine} with development of end-stage renal disease [hazard ratio (HR) 0.70 (95% CI 0.50-0.97); P = 0.03 per doubling of uC3M/creatinine]. sPRO-C3 at baseline was independently associated with increased mortality [HR 1.93 (95% CI 1.21-3.1); P = 0.006 per doubling of sPRO-C3] and disease progression by 30 months [OR 2.16 (95% CI 1.21-3.84); P = 0.009 per doubling of sPRO-C3].ConclusionsDynamic products of COL3 formation and degradation were independently associated with CKD progression and mortality and may represent an opportunity to link pathological processes with targeted treatments against fibrosis.

Vascular Ehlers-Danlos syndrome mutations in type III collagen differently stall the triple helical folding.

Project description:Vascular Ehlers-Danlos syndrome (EDS) type IV is the most severe form of EDS. In many cases the disease is caused by a point mutation of Gly in type III collagen. A slower folding of the collagen helix is a potential cause for over-modifications. However, little is known about the rate of folding of type III collagen in patients with EDS. To understand the molecular mechanism of the effect of mutations, a system was developed for bacterial production of homotrimeric model polypeptides. The C-terminal quarter, 252 residues, of the natural human type III collagen was attached to (GPP)7 with the type XIX collagen trimerization domain (NC2). The natural collagen domain forms a triple helical structure without 4-hydroxylation of proline at a low temperature. At 33 °C, the natural collagenous part is denatured, but the C-terminal (GPP)7-NC2 remains intact. Switching to a low temperature triggers the folding of the type III collagen domain in a zipper-like fashion that resembles the natural process. We used this system for the two known EDS mutations (Gly-to-Val) in the middle at Gly-910 and at the C terminus at Gly-1018. In addition, wild-type and Gly-to-Ala mutants were made. The mutations significantly slow down the overall rate of triple helix formation. The effect of the Gly-to-Val mutation is much more severe compared with Gly-to-Ala. This is the first report on the folding of collagen with EDS mutations, which demonstrates local delays in the triple helix propagation around the mutated residue.
