The FKBP51 Glucocorticoid Receptor Co-Chaperone: Regulation, Function, and Implications in Health and Disease.

ABSTRACT: Among the chaperones and co-chaperones regulating the glucocorticoid receptor (GR), FK506 binding protein (FKBP) 51 is the most intensely investigated across different disciplines. This review provides an update on the role of the different co-chaperones of Hsp70 and Hsp90 in the regulation of GR function. The development leading to the focus on FKBP51 is outlined. Further, a survey of the vast literature on the mechanism and function of FKBP51 is provided. This includes its structure and biochemical function, its regulation on different levels-transcription, post-transcription, and post-translation-and its function in signaling pathways. The evidence portraying FKBP51 as a scaffolding protein organizing protein complexes rather than a chaperone contributing to the folding of individual proteins is collated. Finally, FKBP51's involvement in physiology and disease is outlined, and the promising efforts in developing drugs targeting FKBP51 are discussed.

Project description:BackgroundAcetylation of heat shock protein 90 (Hsp90) regulates downstream hormone signaling via the glucocorticoid receptor (GR), but the role of this molecular mechanism in stress homeostasis is poorly understood. We tested whether acetylation of Hsp90 in the brain predicts and modulates the behavioral sequelae of a mouse model of social stress.MethodsMice subjected to chronic social defeat stress were stratified into resilient and vulnerable subpopulations. Hypothalamic-pituitary-adrenal axis function was probed using a dexamethasone/corticotropin-releasing factor test. Measurements of Hsp90 acetylation, Hsp90-GR interactions, and GR translocation were performed in the dorsal raphe nucleus. To manipulate Hsp90 acetylation, we pharmacologically inhibited histone deacetylase 6, a known deacetylase of Hsp90, or overexpressed a point mutant that mimics the hyperacetylated state of Hsp90 at lysine K294.ResultsLower acetylated Hsp90, higher GR-Hsp90 association, and enhanced GR translocation were observed in dorsal raphe nucleus of vulnerable mice after chronic social defeat stress. Administration of ACY-738, a histone deacetylase 6-selective inhibitor, led to Hsp90 hyperacetylation in brain and in neuronal culture. In cell-based assays, ACY-738 increased the relative association of Hsp90 with FK506 binding protein 51 versus FK506 binding protein 52 and inhibited hormone-induced GR translocation. This effect was replicated by overexpressing the acetylation-mimic point mutant of Hsp90. In vivo, ACY-738 promoted resilience to chronic social defeat stress, and serotonin-selective viral overexpression of the acetylation-mimic mutant of Hsp90 in raphe neurons reproduced the behavioral effect of ACY-738.ConclusionsHyperacetylation of Hsp90 is a predictor and causal molecular determinant of stress resilience in mice. Brain-penetrant histone deacetylase 6 inhibitors increase Hsp90 acetylation and modulate GR chaperone dynamics offering a promising strategy to curtail deleterious socioaffective effects of stress and glucocorticoids.
