RKIP and TBK1 form a positive feedback loop to promote type I interferon production in innate immunity.

ABSTRACT: TANK-binding kinase 1 (TBK1) activation is a central event in type I interferon production in anti-virus innate immunity. However, the regulatory mechanism underlying TBK1 activation remains unclear. Here we report that Raf kinase inhibitory protein (RKIP) is essential for TBK1 activation and type I interferon production triggered by viral infection. Upon viral infection, RKIP is phosphorylated at serine 109 (S109) by TBK1. Phosphorylation of RKIP enhances its interaction with TBK1 and in turn promotes TBK1 autophosphorylation. Mutation of RKIP S109 to alanine abrogates the interaction between RKIP and TBK1, and the anti-viral function of RKIP RKIP deficiency inhibits intracellular double-stranded RNA- or DNA-induced type I interferon production. Consistently, RKIP deficiency renders the mice more susceptible to vesicular stomatitis virus (VSV) and herpes simplex virus (HSV) infections. This study reveals a previously unrecognized positive feedback loop between RKIP and TBK1 that is essential for type I interferon production in anti-viral innate immunity.

Project description:Chemotherapy is an important treatment modality for osteosarcoma (OS), but the development of chemoresistance limits the therapeutic efficacy of OS and results in a poor prognosis. Thus, a better understanding of the mechanisms underlying chemoresistance in OS is essential. We previously demonstrated that COPS3/CSN3 (COP9 signalosome subunit 3) functions as an oncogene to promote OS cells lung metastasis, which is closely related to chemoresistance. Here, we showed that COPS3 was significantly upregulated in OS tissues with poor response to preoperative chemotherapy. Moreover, COPS3 depletion made OS cells more sensitive to cisplatin treatment in vitro and in vivo, implicating COPS3 as a driver of cisplatin resistance. Mechanistic investigations showed that COPS3 induced a cytoprotective macroautophagy/autophagy in response to cisplatin. Specifically, we identified FOXO3 as a critical target of COPS3, as high expression of COPS3 enhanced the nuclear abundance of FOXO3 and increased the expression of FOXO3-responsive genes, promoting autophagosome formation and maturation. In turn, FOXO3 regulated COPS3 levels by inhibiting ubiquitin-mediated degradation and attenuating SKP2-mediated COPS3 inhibition, cooperatively maintaining a high level of COPS3. In both COPS3-expressing OS cells and a murine xenograft model, inhibition of autophagy could also overcome resistance to cisplatin. Collectively, our results offer insights into the mechanisms of cisplatin resistance and suggest that targeting COPS3-mediated autophagy is a promising therapeutic strategy for overcoming the cisplatin resistance of OS.Abbreviations: 3-MA: 3-methyladenine; BECN1: beclin 1; ChIP: chromatin immunoprecipitation; CHX: cycloheximide; COPS3/CSN3: COP9 signalosome subunit 3; CQ: chloroquine; DEGs: differentially expressed genes; FOXO3: forkhead box O3; GFP: green fluorescent protein; IC50: 50% inhibitory concentration; LAMP1: lysosomal associated membrane protein 1; MAP1LC3B/LC3B: microtubule associated protein 1 light chain 3 beta; MTOR: mechanistic target of rapamycin kinase; mRFP: monomeric red fluorescent protein; OS: osteosarcoma; PBS: phosphate-buffered saline; qRT-PCR: quantitative real-time PCR; RAB7: RAB7, member RAS oncogene family; RPS6KB1/p70S6K1: ribosomal protein S6 kinase B1; SEM: standard error of the mean; shRNA: short hairpin RNA; siRNA: small interfering RNA; SKP2: S-phase kinase associated protein 2; TEM: transmission electron microscopy; UPS: ubiquitin-proteasome system.
