Mitogen-activated protein kinase-interacting kinase regulates mTOR/AKT signaling and controls the serine/arginine-rich protein kinase-responsive type 1 internal ribosome entry site-mediated translation and viral oncolysis.

ABSTRACT: Translation machinery is a major recipient of the principal mitogenic signaling networks involving Raf-ERK1/2 and phosphoinositol 3-kinase (PI3K)-mechanistic target of rapamycin (mTOR). Picornavirus internal ribosomal entry site (IRES)-mediated translation and cytopathogenic effects are susceptible to the status of such signaling cascades in host cells. We determined that tumor-specific cytotoxicity of the poliovirus/rhinovirus chimera PVSRIPO is facilitated by Raf-ERK1/2 signals to the mitogen-activated protein kinase (MAPK)-interacting kinase (MNK) and its effects on the partitioning/activity of the Ser/Arg (SR)-rich protein kinase (SRPK) (M. C. Brown, J. D. Bryant, E. Y. Dobrikova, M. Shveygert, S. S. Bradrick, V. Chandramohan, D. D. Bigner, and M, Gromeier, J. Virol. 22:13135-13148, 2014, doi:http://dx.doi.org/10.1128/JVI.01883-14). Here, we show that MNK regulates SRPK via mTOR and AKT. Our investigations revealed a MNK-controlled mechanism acting on mTORC2-AKT. The resulting suppression of AKT signaling attenuates SRPK activity to enhance picornavirus type 1 IRES translation and favor PVSRIPO tumor cell toxicity and killing.Oncolytic immunotherapy with PVSRIPO, the type 1 live-attenuated poliovirus (PV) (Sabin) vaccine containing a human rhinovirus type 2 (HRV2) IRES, is demonstrating early promise in clinical trials with intratumoral infusion in recurrent glioblastoma (GBM). Our investigations demonstrate that the core mechanistic principle of PVSRIPO, tumor-selective translation and cytotoxicity, relies on constitutive ERK1/2-MNK signals that counteract the deleterious effects of runaway AKT-SRPK activity in malignancy.

Project description:Liver necroptosis of chicks is induced by selenium (Se)/vitamin E (VE) deficiencies and may be associated with oxidative cell damage. To reveal the underlying mechanisms of liver necrosis, a pool of the corn-soy basal diet (10 μg Se/kg; no VE added), a basal diet plus all-rac-α-tocopheryl acetate (50 mg/kg), Se (sodium selenite at 0.3 mg/kg), or both of these nutrients were provided to day-old broiler chicks (n = 40/group) for 6 weeks. High incidences of liver necrosis (30%) of chicks were induced by -SE-VE, starting at day 16. The Se concentration in liver and glutathione peroxidase (GPX) activity were decreased (P < 0.05) by dietary Se deficiency. Meanwhile, Se deficiency elevated malondialdehyde content and decreased superoxide dismutase (SOD) activity in the liver at weeks 2 and 4. Chicks fed with the two Se-deficient diets showed lower (P < 0.05) hepatic mRNA expression of Gpx1, Gpx3, Gpx4, Selenof, Selenoh, Selenok, Selenom, Selenon, Selenoo, Selenop, Selenot, Selenou, Selenow, and Dio1 than those fed with the two Se-supplemented diets. Dietary Se deficiency had elevated (P < 0.05) the expression of SELENOP, but decreased the downregulation (P < 0.05) of GPX1, GPX4, SELENON, and SELENOW in the liver of chicks at two time points. Meanwhile, dietary Se deficiency upregulated (P < 0.05) the abundance of hepatic proteins of p38 mitogen-activated protein kinase, phospho-p38 mitogen-activated protein kinase, c-Jun N-terminal kinase, phospho-c-Jun N-terminal kinase, extracellular signal-regulated kinase, phospho-mitogen-activated protein kinase, receptor-interacting serine-threonine kinase 1 (RIPK1), receptor-interacting serine-threonine kinase 3 (RIPK3), and mixed lineage kinase domain-like (MLKL) at two time points. In conclusion, our data confirmed the differential regulation of dietary Se deficiency on several key selenoproteins, the RIPK1/RIPK3/MLKL, and mitogen-activated protein kinase signaling pathway in chicks and identified new molecular clues for understanding the etiology of nutritional liver necrosis.

Project description:Ebola virus (EBOV) causes a severe and often fatal disease for which no approved vaccines or antivirals are currently available. EBOV VP30 has been described as a viral phosphoprotein, and nonphosphorylated VP30 is essential and sufficient to support secondary transcription in an EBOV-specific minigenome system; however, phosphorylatable serine residues near the N terminus of VP30 are required to support primary viral transcription as well as the reinitiation of VP30-mediated transcription at internal EBOV genes. While the dephosphorylation of VP30 by the cellular phosphatase PP2A was found to be mediated by nucleoprotein, the VP30-specific kinases and the role of phosphorylation remain unknown. Here, we report that serine-arginine protein kinase 1 (SRPK1) and SRPK2 phosphorylate serine 29 of VP30, which is located in an N-terminal R26xxS29 motif. Interaction with VP30 via the R26xxS29 motif recruits SRPK1 into EBOV-induced inclusion bodies, the sites of viral RNA synthesis, and an inhibitor of SRPK1/SRPK2 downregulates primary viral transcription. When the SRPK1 recognition motif of VP30 was mutated in a recombinant EBOV, virus replication was severely impaired. It is presumed that the interplay between SRPK1 and PP2A in the EBOV inclusions provides a comprehensive regulatory circuit to ensure the activity of VP30 in EBOV transcription. Thus, the identification of SRPK1 is an important mosaic stone that completes our picture of the players involved in Ebola virus transcription regulation.IMPORTANCE The largest Ebola virus (EBOV) epidemic in West Africa ever caused more than 28,000 cases and 11,000 deaths, and the current EBOV epidemic in the Democratic Republic of the Congo continues, with more than 3,000 cases to date. Therefore, it is essential to develop antivirals against EBOV. Recently, an inhibitor of the cellular phosphatase PP2A-mediated dephosphorylation of the EBOV transcription factor VP30 has been shown to suppress the spread of Ebola virus. Here, we identified the protein kinase SRPK1 as a VP30-specific kinase that phosphorylates serine 29, the same residue that is dephosphorylated by PP2A. SRPK1-mediated phosphorylation of serine 29 enabled primary viral transcription. Mutation of the SRPK1 recognition motif in VP30 resulted in significant growth inhibition of EBOV. Similarly, elevation of the phosphorylation status of serine 29 by overexpression of SRPK1 inhibited EBOV growth, highlighting the importance of reversible phosphorylation of VP30 as a potential therapeutic target.
