S100B as an Antagonist To Interfere with the Interface Area Flanked by S100A11 and RAGE V Domain.

ABSTRACT: The Ca2+-sensing protein S100A11 of the S100 family is an important mediator of numerous biological functions and pathological conditions including cancer. The receptor for advanced glycation end products (RAGE) has been well accepted as the major receptor for several S100 family members. Here, we take the S100B protein as an antagonist to interfere with the interaction flanked by S100A11 and the RAGE V domain. We employed NMR spectroscopy to describe the interactions between the S100A11 and S100B proteins. 1H-15N heteronuclear single-quantum correlation-NMR titrations showed the potential binding dynamics of S100A11 and S100B interactions. In the HADDOCK program, we constructed the S100A11-S100B heterodimer complex that was then superimposed with the S100A11-S100B complex structure in the same orientation as the S100A11-RAGE V domain complex. This overlay analysis showed that S100B could interfere in the binding section of S100A11 and the RAGE V domain. Additionally, water-soluble tetrazolium-1 assay provided a functional read-out of the effects of these proteins in an in vitro cancer model. Our study establishes that the development of an S100B antagonist could perform a vital part in the treatment of S100- and RAGE-dependent human diseases.

Project description:Increased expression of S100B and its specific receptor for advanced glycation end products (RAGE) has been described in patients with multiple sclerosis (MS), being associated with an active demyelinating process. We previously showed that a direct neutralization of S100B reduces lysophosphatidylcholine (LPC)-induced demyelination and inflammation using an ex vivo demyelinating model. However, whether S100B actions occur through RAGE and how oligodendrogenesis and remyelination are affected are not clarified. To evaluate the role of the S100B-RAGE axis in the course of a demyelinating insult, organotypic cerebellar slice cultures (OCSC) were demyelinated with LPC in the presence or absence of RAGE antagonist FPS-ZM1. Then, we explored the effects of the S100B-RAGE axis inhibition on glia reactivity and inflammation, myelination and neuronal integrity, and on oligodendrogenesis and remyelination. In the present study, we confirmed that LPC-induced demyelination increased S100B and RAGE expression, while RAGE antagonist FPS-ZM1 markedly reduced their content and altered RAGE cellular localization. Furthermore, FPS-ZM1 prevented LPC-induced microgliosis and astrogliosis, as well as NF-κB activation and pro-inflammatory cytokine gene expression. In addition, RAGE antagonist reduced LPC-induced demyelination having a beneficial effect on axonal and synaptic protein preservation. We have also observed that RAGE engagement is needed for LPC-induced oligodendrocyte (OL) maturation arrest and loss of mature myelinating OL, with these phenomena being prevented by FPS-ZM1. Our data suggest that increased levels of mature OL in the presence of FPS-ZM1 are related to increased expression of microRNAs (miRs) associated with OL differentiation and remyelination, such as miR-23a, miR-219a, and miR-338, which are defective upon LPC incubation. Finally, our electron microscopy data show that inhibition of the S100B-RAGE axis prevents axonal damage and myelin loss, in parallel with enhanced functional remyelination, as observed by the presence of thinner myelin sheaths when compared with Control. Overall, our data implicate the S100B-RAGE axis in the extent of myelin and neuronal damage, as well as in the inflammatory response that follows a demyelinating insult. Thus, prevention of RAGE engagement may represent a novel strategy for promoting not only inflammatory reduction but also neuronal and myelin preservation and/or remyelination, improving recovery in a demyelinating condition as MS.
