RIP1 suppresses innate immune necrotic as well as apoptotic cell death during mammalian parturition.

ABSTRACT: The pronecrotic kinase, receptor interacting protein (RIP1, also called RIPK1) mediates programmed necrosis and, together with its partner, RIP3 (RIPK3), drives midgestational death of caspase 8 (Casp8)-deficient embryos. RIP1 controls a second vital step in mammalian development immediately after birth, the mechanism of which remains unresolved. Rip1(-/-) mice display perinatal lethality, accompanied by gross immune system abnormalities. Here we show that RIP1 K45A (kinase dead) knockin mice develop normally into adulthood, indicating that development does not require RIP1 kinase activity. In the face of complete RIP1 deficiency, cells develop sensitivity to RIP3-mixed lineage kinase domain-like-mediated necroptosis as well as to Casp8-mediated apoptosis activated by diverse innate immune stimuli (e.g., TNF, IFN, double-stranded RNA). When either RIP3 or Casp8 is disrupted in combination with RIP1, the resulting double knockout mice exhibit slightly prolonged survival over RIP1-deficient animals. Surprisingly, triple knockout mice with combined RIP1, RIP3, and Casp8 deficiency develop into viable and fertile adults, with the capacity to produce normal levels of myeloid and lymphoid lineage cells. Despite the combined deficiency, these mice sustain a functional immune system that responds robustly to viral challenge. A single allele of Rip3 is tolerated in Rip1(-/-)Casp8(-/-)Rip3(+/-) mice, contrasting the need to eliminate both alleles of either Rip1 or Rip3 to rescue midgestational death of Casp8-deficient mice. These observations reveal a vital kinase-independent role for RIP1 in preventing pronecrotic as well as proapoptotic signaling events associated with life-threatening innate immune activation at the time of mammalian parturition.

Project description:Keratins, formerly known as cytokeratins, are the major epithelial-specific subgroup of intermediate filament proteins. Adult hepatocytes express keratin polypeptides 8 and 18 (K8/K18), whereas cholangiocytes express K8/K18 and keratins 7 and 19 (K7/K19). Keratins function primarily to protect hepatocytes from apoptosis and necrosis, which was revealed using several genetic mouse models. This cytoprotective function was further clarified by the identification of natural human keratin variants that are normally silent, but become pathogenic by predisposing their carriers to apoptosis during acute or chronic liver injury mediated by toxins, virus infection, or metabolic stress. During apoptosis, caspases cleave K18 and K19 at conserved aspartates (human K18/K19: (235) Val-Glu-Val-Asp(?) ) and K18 at a unique aspartate (human K18: (394) Asp-Ala-Leu-Asp(?) ), with the latter exposed epitope becoming recognized by the M30 antibody in blood and tissues. Additional K18-containing protein backbone epitopes are detected using the M6 and M5 (termed M65) antibodies. Intact K18 and its associated fragments, which are released into blood during apoptosis and necrosis in various diseases, have been analyzed by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay using the M30/M65 antibodies or their signal ratios. Furthermore, M30/M65 levels have been used as diagnostic and prognostic biomarkers in acute and chronic liver diseases, including nonalcoholic steatohepatitis and acute liver failure. Other keratin biomarkers include K8/K18/K19-related tissue polypeptide antigen, K18-related tissue polypeptide-specific antigen, and K19-related CYFRA-21-1, which have been evaluated mostly in patients with epithelial tumors.Keratins and their fragments are released into blood during liver and other epithelial tissue injury. The epithelial specificity of K18/K19, epitope unmasking upon caspase digestion, keratin abundance, and relative keratin stability render them useful biomarkers for hepatocyte and cholangiocyte apoptosis and necrosis. However, the precise biochemical nature and release mechanism of circulating keratins remain unknown. (Hepatology 2016;64:966-976).

Project description:Cell death, including apoptotic and non-apoptotic cell death, is frequently observed in liver disease. Upon activation of the mitochondrial apoptotic pathway, mitochondria release not only apoptogenic cytochrome c but also mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA) into the cytosol. The impact of DNase II, a lysosomal acid DNase that degrades mtDNA, on hepatocyte death remains unclear. Administration of ABT-737, a Bcl-xL inhibitor, upregulated DNase II activity in murine hepatocyte cell line BNL CL.2 cells and induced apoptosis. In cells treated with DNase II siRNA, ABT-737 led to accumulation of mtDNA in the cytosol and increased expression of interferon (IFN)-? and induction of propidium iodide (PI)-positive cells, in addition to apoptosis. Induced PI-positive cells were suppressed by RIP1 inhibitor, Necrostatin-1, but not by pan-caspase inhibitor, ZVAD-FMK, suggesting non-apoptotic cell death. Both the increase in IFN-? and the induction of non-apoptotic cell death were abolished by administering a TLR9 antagonist, ODN2088, or by the removal of mtDNA from cells with ethidium bromide. Hepatocyte-specific Mcl-1 knockout mice developed hepatocyte apoptosis accompanied by upregulated DNase II activity in their livers. Further knockout of DNase II induced IFN-? expression and RIP1-dependent non-apoptotic hepatocyte death, both of which were suppressed by the administration of ODN2088. Mice fed a high-fat diet (HFD), an obesity-associated fatty liver model, showed increased expression of IFN-? with suppression of DNase II activity in their livers and developed not only hepatocyte apoptosis but also non-apoptotic hepatocyte death. Hepatocyte-specific knockout of DNase II exacerbated HFD-induced non-apoptotic hepatocyte death and liver fibrosis. In conclusion, without DNase II, apoptotic stimulation on hepatocytes induces TLR9-dependent IFN-? production and RIP1-dependent non-apoptotic cell death originating from mtDNA. In fatty livers, DNase II activity is suppressed in contrast to simple inactivation of Bcl-xL or Mcl-1, and both apoptotic and non-apoptotic hepatocyte death can develop, leading to the progression of liver fibrosis.
