The deubiquitinase MYSM1 dampens NOD2-mediated inflammation and tissue damage by inactivating the RIP2 complex.

ABSTRACT: NOD2 is essential for antimicrobial innate immunity and tissue homeostasis, but require tight regulation to avert pathology. A focal point of NOD2 signaling is RIP2, which upon polyubiquitination nucleates the NOD2:RIP2 complex, enabling signaling events leading to inflammation, yet the precise nature and the regulation of the polyubiquitins coordinating this process remain unclear. Here we show that NOD2 signaling involves conjugation of RIP2 with lysine 63 (K63), K48 and M1 polyubiquitin chains, as well as with non-canonical K27 chains. In addition, we identify MYSM1 as a proximal deubiquitinase that attenuates NOD2:RIP2 complex assembly by selectively removing the K63, K27 and M1 chains, but sparing the K48 chains. Consequently, MYSM1 deficient mice have unrestrained NOD2-mediated peritonitis, systemic inflammation and liver injury. This study provides a complete overview of the polyubiquitins in NOD2:RIP2 signaling and reveal MYSM1 as a central negative regulator restricting these polyubiquitins to prevent excessive inflammation.

Project description:BackgroundKey hepatic molecules linking gut dysbiosis and hepatocarcinogenesis remain largely unknown. Gut-derived gut microbiota contains pathogen-associated molecular patterns (PAMPs) that may circulate into the liver and, consequently, be recognized by hepatic pattern recognition receptors (PRRs). NOD2, a general intracellular PRR, recognizes muramyl dipeptide (MDP), present in both gram (+) and gram (-) bacteria. Here, we investigated the role of NOD2 as a molecular sensor translating gut dysbiosis signaling into hepatocarcinogenesis.MethodsNOD2 expression was measured in clinical hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) samples using qPCR (80 pairs), western blotting (30 pairs) and immunostaining (141 pairs). The role of NOD2 in hepatocarcinogenesis was examined in the hepatocyte-specific Nod2-knockout (Nod2△hep), Rip2-knockout (Rip2△hep), Lamin A/C-knockout (Lamn△hep) and Rip2/Lamin A/C double-knockout (Rip2/Lamn△hep) mice models of diethylnitrosamine (DEN)/CCl4-induced HCC.ResultsNOD2 was upregulated and activated in HCC samples, and high NOD2 expression correlated with poor prognosis in HCC patients. Hepatic NOD2 deletion in vivo decreased DEN/CCl4-induced HCC by reducing the inflammatory response, DNA damage and genomic instability. NOD2 activation increased liver inflammation via RIP2-dependent activation of the MAPK, NF-κB and STAT3 pathways. Notably, a novel RIP2-independent mechanism was discovered, whereby NOD2 activation induces the nuclear autophagy pathway. We showed that NOD2 undergoes nuclear transport and directly binds to a component of nuclear laminae, lamin A/C, to promote its protein degradation, leading to impaired DNA damage repair and increased genomic instability.ConclusionsWe reveal a novel bridge, bacterial sensor NOD2, linking gut-derived microbial metabolites to hepatocarcinogenesis via induction of the inflammatory response and nuclear autophagy. Thus, we propose hepatic NOD2 as a promising therapeutic target against HCC.
