SENP1-mediated NEMO deSUMOylation in adipocytes limits inflammatory responses and type-1 diabetes progression.

ABSTRACT: Adipocyte dysfunction correlates with the development of diabetes. Here we show that mice with a adipocyte-specific deletion of the SUMO-specific protease SENP1 gene develop symptoms of type-1 diabetes mellitus (T1DM), including hyperglycaemia and glucose intolerance with mild insulin resistance. Peri-pancreatic adipocytes from SENP1-deficient mice exhibit heightened NF-κB activity and production of proinflammatory cytokines, which induce CCL5 expression in adjacent pancreatic islets and direct cytotoxic effects on pancreatic islets. Mechanistic studies show that SENP1 deletion in adipocytes enhances SUMOylation of the NF-κB essential molecule, NEMO, at lysine 277/309, leading to increased NF-κB activity, cytokine production and pancreatic inflammation. We further show that NF-κB inhibitors could inhibit pre-diabetic cytokine production, β-cell damages and ameliorate the T1DM phenotype in SENP1-deficient mice. Feeding a high-fat diet augments both type-1 and type-2 diabetes phenotypes in SENP1-deficient mice, consistent with the effects on adipocyte-derived NF-κB and cytokine signalling. Our study reveals previously unrecognized mechanism regulating the onset and progression of T1DM associated with adipocyte dysfunction.

SENP1 Regulates Germinal Center B Cell Responses through PAX5-deSUMOylation mediated AID expression

Project description:Humoral immunity depends on germinal center reaction where B cells are tightly controlled for class switch recombination (CSR) and somatic hypermutation, and finally generated into plasma and memory B cells. However, how protein SUMOylation control the key events of GC B cells remains to be understood. Here, we show that SUMO-specific protease 1 (SENP1) is upregulated in GC B cells. Selective ablation of Senp1 within GC B cells led to defective dark zone versus light zone GC B organization, impaired IgG1-switched GC B cells, and compromised antibody response. In addition, the formation of antigen-specific plasma and memory B cells were also diminished when SENP1 was deleted in GC B cells. Mechanistically, SENP1 was indispensable for expression of activation-induced cytidine deaminase (AID). SENP1-mediated Paired box protein 5 deSUMOylation suppressed the transcription to AID, which might be responsible for defective CSR in vivo. Our study not only established the importance of protein SUMOylation for the maintenance of GC B cell function but also clarified a novel mechanism to the modulation of AID expression.

DeSUMOylation of Gli1 by SENP1 Attenuates Sonic Hedgehog Signaling.

Project description:The transcriptional output of the Sonic Hedgehog morphogenic pathway is orchestrated by three Krüppel family transcription factors, Gli1 to -3, which undergo extensive posttranslational modifications, including ubiquitination and SUMOylation. Here, we report that the sentrin-specific peptidase SENP1 is the specific deSUMOylation enzyme for Gli1. We show that SUMOylation stabilizes Gli1 by competing with ubiquitination at conserved lysine residues and that SUMOylated Gli1 is enriched in the nucleus, suggesting that SUMOylation is a nuclear localization signal for Gli1. Finally, we show that small interfering RNA (siRNA)-mediated knockdown of SENP1 augments the ability of Shh to sustain the proliferation of cerebellar granule cell precursors, demonstrating the physiological significance of the negative regulation of Shh signaling by SENP1.

The critical role of SENP1-mediated GATA2 deSUMOylation in promoting endothelial activation in graft arteriosclerosis.

Project description:Data from clinical research and our previous study have suggested the potential involvement of SENP1, the major protease of post-translational SUMOylation, in cardiovascular disorders. Here, we investigate the role of SENP1-mediated SUMOylation in graft arteriosclerosis (GA), the major cause of allograft failure. We observe an endothelial-specific induction of SENP1 and GATA2 in clinical graft rejection specimens that show endothelial activation-mediated vascular remodelling. In mouse aorta transplantation GA models, endothelial-specific SENP1 knockout grafts demonstrate limited neointima formation with attenuated leukocyte recruitment, resulting from diminished induction of adhesion molecules in the graft endothelium due to increased GATA2 SUMOylation. Mechanistically, inflammation-induced SENP1 promotes the deSUMOylation of GATA2 and I?B? in endothelial cells, resulting in increased GATA2 stability, promoter-binding capability and NF-?B activity, which leads to augmented endothelial activation and inflammation. Therefore, upon inflammation, endothelial SENP1-mediated SUMOylation drives GA by regulating the synergistic effect of GATA2 and NF-?B and consequent endothelial dysfunction.

SENP1 promotes hypoxia-induced cancer stemness by HIF-1? deSUMOylation and SENP1/HIF-1? positive feedback loop.

Project description:We investigated the effect and mechanism of hypoxic microenvironment and hypoxia-inducible factors (HIFs) on hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) cancer stemness.HCC cancer stemness was analysed by self-renewal ability, chemoresistance, expression of stemness-related genes and cancer stem cell (CSC) marker-positive cell population. Specific small ubiquitin-like modifier (SUMO) proteases 1 (SENP1) mRNA level was examined with quantitative PCR in human paired HCCs. Immunoprecipitation was used to examine the binding of proteins and chromatin immunoprecipitation assay to detect the binding of HIFs with hypoxia response element sequence. In vivo characterisation was performed in immunocompromised mice and stem cell frequency was analysed.We showed that hypoxia enhanced the stemness of HCC cells and hepatocarcinogenesis through enhancing HIF-1? deSUMOylation by SENP1 and increasing stabilisation and transcriptional activity of HIF-1?. Furthermore, we demonstrated that SENP1 is a direct target of HIF-1/2? and a previously unrecognised positive feedback loop exists between SENP1 and HIF-1?.Taken together, our findings suggest the significance of this positive feedback loop between HIF-1? and SENP1 in contributing to the increased cancer stemness in HCC and hepatocarcinogenesis under hypoxia. Drugs that specifically target SENP1 may offer a potential novel therapeutic approach for HCC.

SENP1 is a crucial promotor for hepatocellular carcinoma through deSUMOylation of UBE2T.

Project description:The cooperative roles of SENP1 and UBE2T in development and progression of hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) are still unknown. The expression levels of SENP1 and UBE2T were evaluated in clinical specimens and HCC cells. The relationship between clinicopathological features and SENP1 were analyzed. We constructed the HepG2-SENP1 knockout cell model and explored the functions of SENP1 and UBE2T in HCC development. UBE2T was confirmed as a novel deSUMOylation target of SENP1. Upregulation of SENP1 and UBE2T were observed in HCC tissues and most hepatoma cell lines, and their expression levels were proved to be positively related. Knockout of SENP1 resulted in impaired growth, migration and invasion, and enhanced apoptosis in vitro, as well as inhibition of tumor growth in vivo. Furthermore, we demonstrated that SENP1 could directly deSUMOylate UBE2T thereby increasing its expression and activating Akt pathway. Functional studies showed that UBE2T overexpression or K8R mutation promoted cell growth, migration and invasion. In conclusion, our study demonstrated that SENP1 and UBE2T were positively related and functioned as tumor promoters. The carcinogenesis of SENP1 is mediated by deSUMOylation of UBE2T and the UBE2T/Akt pathway. Notably, UBE2T was identified as a novel deSUMOylation target of SENP1 in this study for the first time.

SENP1 Is a Crucial Regulator for Cell Senescence through DeSUMOylation of Bmi1.

Project description:Cell senescence can limit proliferative potential and prevent tumorigenesis. Bmi1 is a key regulator in cell senescence by suppressing the Ink4a/Arf locus. However, how to regulate Bmi1 activity in cell senescence is largely unknown. Here, we show that SENP1 plays an important role in cell senescence by regulating Bmi1 SUMOylation. Senp1-/- primary MEF cells show resistance to cell senescence induced by passaging or other senescence inducing signals. SENP1 deficiency also reduces oncogene H-RasV12-induced senescence, and enhances H-RasV12-induced cell transformation. We further show that in Senp1-/- MEFs the expression of p19Arf, an important regulator in p53/p21-mediated cell senescence, is markedly reduced. Meanwhile, we demonstrate that SENP1 can specifically de-SUMOylate Bmi1 and thereby decreases the occupancy of Bmi1 on p19Arf promoter leading to decrease of H2AK119 mono-ubiquitination and up-expression of p19Arf. These data reveal a crucial role of SENP1 in regulation of cell senescence as well as cell transformation.

SENP1 modulates microglia-mediated neuroinflammation toward intermittent hypoxia-induced cognitive decline through the de-SUMOylation of NEMO.

Project description:Intermittent hypoxia (IH)-induced cognition decline is related to the neuroinflammation in microglia. SUMOylation is associated with multiple human diseases, which can be reversed by sentrin/SUMO-specific proteases 1 (SENP1). Herein, we investigated the role of SENP1 in IH-induced inflammation and cognition decline. BV-2 microglial cells and mice were used for inflammatory response and cognition function evaluation following IH treatment. Biochemical analysis and Morris water maze methods were used to elaborate the mechanism of SENP1 in IH impairment. Molecular results revealed that IH induced the inflammatory response, as evidenced by the up-regulation of NF-κB activation, IL-1β and TNF-α in vitro and in vivo. Moreover, IH decreased the expression of SENP1, and increased the SUMOylation of NEMO, not NF-κB P65. Moreover, SENP1 overexpression inhibited IH-induced inflammatory response and SUMOylation of NEMO. However, the inhibitions were abolished by siRNA-NEMO. In contrast, SENP1 depletion enhanced IH-induced inflammatory response and SUMOylation of NEMO, accompanying with increased latency and reduced dwell time in mice. Overall, the results demonstrated that SENP1 regulated IH-induced neuroinflammation by modulating the SUMOylation of NEMO, thus activating the NF-κB pathway, revealing that targeting SENP1 in microglia may represent a novel therapeutic strategy for IH-induced cognitive decline.

Mutation of SENP1/SuPr-2 reveals an essential role for desumoylation in mouse development.

Project description:The covalent modification of proteins by the small ubiquitin-like protein SUMO has been implicated in the regulation of numerous biological processes, including nucleocytoplasmic transport, genomic stability, and gene transcription. Sumoylation occurs by a multienzyme process similar to ubiquitination and, in Saccharomyces cerevisiae, is reversed by desumoylating enzymes encoded by the Ulp1 and Smt4/Ulp2 genes. The physiological importance of desumoylation has been revealed by mutations in either gene, which lead to nonoverlapping defects in cell cycle transition and meiosis. Several mammalian Ulp homologues have been identified, but, to date, nothing is known of the phenotypic effects of their loss of function. Here, we describe a random retroviral insertional mutation of one homolog, mouse SENP1/SuPr-2. The mutation causes increased steady-state levels of the sumoylated forms of a number of proteins and results in placental abnormalities incompatible with embryonic development. Our findings provide the first insight into the critical importance of regulating sumoylation in mammals.

Viral mediated redirection of NEMO/IKK? to autophagosomes curtails the inflammatory cascade.

Project description:The early host response to viral infections involves transient activation of pattern recognition receptors leading to an induction of inflammatory cytokines such as interleukin-1? (IL-1?) and tumor necrosis factor ? (TNF?). Subsequent activation of cytokine receptors in an autocrine and paracrine manner results in an inflammatory cascade. The precise mechanisms by which viruses avert an inflammatory cascade are incompletely understood. Nuclear factor (NF)-?B is a central regulator of the inflammatory signaling cascade that is controlled by inhibitor of NF-?B (I?B) proteins and the I?B kinase (IKK) complex. In this study we show that murine cytomegalovirus inhibits the inflammatory cascade by blocking Toll-like receptor (TLR) and IL-1 receptor-dependent NF-?B activation. Inhibition occurs through an interaction of the viral M45 protein with the NF-?B essential modulator (NEMO), the regulatory subunit of the IKK complex. M45 induces proteasome-independent degradation of NEMO by targeting NEMO to autophagosomes for subsequent degradation in lysosomes. We propose that the selective and irreversible degradation of a central regulatory protein by autophagy represents a new viral strategy to dampen the inflammatory response.

NPY1R-targeted peptide-mediated delivery of a dual PPAR?/? agonist to adipocytes enhances adipogenesis and prevents diabetes progression.

Project description:OBJECTIVE:PPAR?/? dual agonists have been in clinical development for the treatment of metabolic diseases including type 2 diabetes and dyslipidemia. However, severe adverse side effects led to complications in clinical trials. As most of the beneficial effects rely on the compound activity in adipocytes, the selective targeting of this cell type is a cutting-edge strategy to develop safe anti-diabetic drugs. The goal of this study was to strengthen the adipocyte-specific uptake of the PPAR?/? agonist tesaglitazar via NPY1R-mediated internalization. METHODS:NPY1R-preferring peptide tesaglitazar-[F7, P34]-NPY (tesa-NPY) was synthesized by a combination of automated SPPS and manual couplings. Following molecular and functional analyses for proof of concept, cell culture experiments were conducted to monitor the effects on adipogenesis. Mice treated with peptide drug conjugates or vehicle either by gavage or intraperitoneal injection were characterized phenotypically and metabolically. Histological analysis and transcriptional profiling of the adipose tissue were performed. RESULTS:In vitro studies revealed that the tesaglitazar-[F7, P34]-NPY conjugate selectively activates PPAR? in NPY1R-expressing cells and enhances adipocyte differentiation and adiponectin expression in adipocyte precursor cells. In vivo studies using db/db mice demonstrated that the anti-diabetic activity of the peptide conjugate is as efficient as that of systemically administered tesaglitazar. Additionally, tesa-NPY induces adipocyte differentiation in vivo. CONCLUSIONS:The use of the tesaglitazar-[F7, P34]-NPY conjugate is a promising strategy to apply the beneficial PPAR?/? effects in adipocytes while potentially omitting adverse effects in other tissues.
