Delivery of phosphatidylethanolamine blunts stress in hepatoma cells exposed to elevated palmitate by targeting the endoplasmic reticulum.

ABSTRACT: Genetic obesity increases in liver phosphatidylcholine (PC)/phosphatidylethanolamine (PE) ratio, inducing endoplasmic reticulum (ER) stress without concomitant increase of ER chaperones. Here, it is found that exposing mice to a palm oil-based high fat (HF) diet induced obesity, loss of liver PE, and loss of the ER chaperone Grp78/BiP in pericentral hepatocytes. In Hepa1-6 cells treated with elevated concentration of palmitate to model lipid stress, Grp78/BiP mRNA was increased, indicating onset of stress-induced Unfolded Protein Response (UPR), but Grp78/BiP protein abundance was nevertheless decreased. Exposure to elevated palmitate also induced in hepatoma cells decreased membrane glycosylation, nuclear translocation of pro-apoptotic C/EBP-homologous-protein-10 (CHOP), expansion of ER-derived quality control compartment (ERQC), loss of mitochondrial membrane potential (MMP), and decreased oxidative phosphorylation. When PE was delivered to Hepa1-6 cells exposed to elevated palmitate, effects by elevated palmitate to decrease Grp78/BiP protein abundance and suppress membrane glycosylation were blunted. Delivery of PE to Hepa1-6 cells treated with elevated palmitate also blunted expansion of ERQC, decreased nuclear translocation of CHOP and lowered abundance of reactive oxygen species (ROS). Instead, delivery of the chemical chaperone 4-phenyl-butyrate (PBA) to Hepa1-6 cells treated with elevated palmitate, while increasing abundance of Grp78/BiP protein and restoring membrane glycosylation, also increased ERQC, expression and nuclear translocation of CHOP, non-mitochondrial oxygen consumption, and generation of ROS. Data indicate that delivery of PE to hepatoma cells under lipid stress recovers cell function by targeting the secretory pathway and by blunting pro-apoptotic branches of the UPR.

Project description:BackgroundUseful probes of the intracellular environment that target a specific organelle in order to allow direct observation of the changes in these regions is of high current interest. Macrocyclic ligands have already revealed themselves as important selective hosts in some biological applications, forming stable and specific complexes. Therefore, in this paper, several macrocyclic ligands are evaluated as potential molecular probes.MethodologyFour polyammonium macrocycles and one macrotricyclic bearing pyridine and phenanthroline chromophores have been synthesised and evaluated as molecular probes. The cytotoxicity of the compounds has been analyzed using human breast cancer cells (MCF-7), non-cancerous human dermal fibroblasts (NHDF) and human adult dermal skin fibroblasts from a breast cancer patient (P14). All the compounds showed low toxicity at concentrations ranging from 10 nM to 10 µM, except for [32]phen(2)N(4) which proved to be highly cytotoxic for MCF-7 cells. Flow cytometry studies evidenced that the percentage of apoptotic and necrotic MCF-7 and NHDF cells induced by the compounds is considerably low. Also, flow cytometry analysis showed that some compounds seem to modify the mitochondrial membrane potential (MMP) of the cells. Fluorescence microscopy evidenced that compounds easily cross the plasma membrane (5 min) and accumulated into the mitochondria, as confirmed by co-localization with MitoTracker Green™. The fluorescence images also evidenced an intact mitochondria structure after 48 h. Moreover, reticular staining suggestive of endoplasmic reticulum (ER) localization, in addition to the mitochondrial one, has been found by confocal microscopy.ConclusionOur study reveals that compounds Me(2)[28]py(2)N(6), cryptphen, [16]phenN(2), [30]phen(2)N(6), have low toxicity and localize in mitochondria and ER. The ability of these compounds for translocating the cellular membrane (5 min) without special conditioning of the cells or derivatization of the probe, the time-dependent localization (48 h) and the cellular viability provide a proof-of-concept towards their use as promising probes towards biomedical studies.
