Data supporting characterization of CLIC1, CLIC4, CLIC5 and DmCLIC antibodies and localization of CLICs in endoplasmic reticulum of cardiomyocytes.

ABSTRACT: Chloride intracellular channel (CLICs) proteins show 60-70% sequence identity to each other, and exclusively localize to the intracellular organelle membranes and cytosol. In support of our recent publication, "Molecular identity of cardiac mitochondrial chloride intracellular channel proteins" (Ponnalagu et al., 2016) [1], it was important to characterize the specificity of different CLIC paralogs/ortholog (CLIC1, CLIC4, CLIC5 and DmCLIC) antibodies used to decipher their localization in cardiac cells. In addition, localization of CLICs in the other organelles such as endoplasmic reticulum (ER) of cardiomyocytes was established. This article also provides data on the different primers used to show the relative abundance of CLIC paralogs in cardiac tissue and the specificity of the various CLIC antibodies used. We demonstrate that the predominant CLICs in the heart, namely CLIC1, CLIC4 and CLIC5, show differential distribution in endoplasmic reticulum. CLIC1 and CLIC4 both show co-localization to the endoplasmic reticulum whereas CLIC5 does not.

Project description:BackgroundHuman head and neck squamous carcinoma is the 6th most prevalent carcinoma worldwide. Although many novel therapies have been developed, the clinical treatment for patients remains non-ideal. Chloride intracellular channel 4 (CLIC4), one of the seven members of the CLIC family, is a newly found Cl(-) channel that participates in various biological processes, including cellular apoptosis and differentiation. Accumulating evidence has revealed the significant role of CLIC4 in regulating the apoptosis of different cancer cells. Here, we investigated the functional role of CLIC4 in the apoptosis of HN4 cells, a human head and neck squamous carcinoma cell line.ResultsIn the present study, we used immunohistochemical staining to demonstrate that the expression level of CLIC4 is elevated in the tissue of human oral squamous carcinoma compared with healthy human gingival tissue. Specific CLIC4 small interfering RNA was used to knockdown the expression of CLIC4. The results showed that knockdown of CLIC4 with or without 100 μM adenosine triphosphate (ATP) treatment significantly increased the expression of Bax, active caspase 3, active caspase 4 and CHOP but suppressed Bcl-2 expression in HN4 cells. Moreover, the results from the TdT-mediated dUTP nick end labeling assay indicated that CLIC4 knockdown induced a higher apoptotic rate in HN4 cells under the induction of ATP. In addition, knockdown of CLIC4 dramatically enhanced ATP-induced mitochondrial membrane depolarization in HN4 cells. Moreover, intracellular Ca(2+) measurement revealed that Ca(2+) release induced by ATP and thapsigargin, a Ca(2+)-ATPase inhibitor of the endoplasmic reticulum, was significantly enhanced by the suppression of CLIC4 in HN4 cells.ConclusionsKnockdown of CLIC4 enhanced ATP-induced apoptosis in HN4 cells. Both the pathways of mitochondria and endoplasmic reticulum stress were involved in CLIC4-mediated cell apoptosis. Based on our finding, CLIC4 may be a potential and valuable target for the clinical treatment of head and neck squamous carcinoma.
