Prothrombin is a binding partner of the human receptor of advanced glycation end products.

ABSTRACT: The receptor for advanced glycation end products (RAGE) plays a key role in mammal physiology and in the etiology and progression of inflammatory and oxidative stress-based diseases. In adults, RAGE expression is normally high only in the lung where the protein concentrates in the basal membrane of alveolar Type I epithelial cells. In diseases, RAGE levels increase in the affected tissues and sustain chronic inflammation. RAGE exists as a membrane glycoprotein with an ectodomain, a transmembrane helix, and a short carboxyl-terminal tail, or as a soluble ectodomain that acts as a decoy receptor (sRAGE). VC1 domain is responsible for binding to the majority of RAGE ligands including advanced glycation end products (AGEs), S100 proteins, and HMGB1. To ascertain whether other ligands exist, we analyzed by MS the material pulled down by VC1 from human plasma. Twenty of 295 identified proteins were selected and associated to coagulation and complement processes and to extracellular matrix. Four of them contained a γ-carboxyl glutamic acid (Gla) domain, a calcium-binding module, and prothrombin (PT) was the most abundant. Using MicroScale thermophoresis, we quantified the interaction of PT with VC1 and sRAGE in the absence or presence of calcium that acted as a competitor. PT devoid of the Gla domain (PT des-Gla) did not bind to sRAGE, providing further evidence that the Gla domain is critical for the interaction. Finally, the presence of VC1 delayed plasma clotting in a dose-dependent manner. We propose that RAGE is involved in modulating blood coagulation presumably in conditions of lung injury.

Prothrombin is a binding partner of the human Receptor of Advanced Glycation End products

Project description:The receptor for advanced glycation end products (RAGE) plays a key role in mammal physiology and in the etiology and progression of inflammatory and oxidative stress-based diseases. In adults, RAGE expression is high only in the lung where the protein concentrates in the basal membrane of Type I alveolar epithelial cells. In diseases, RAGE levels increase in the affected tissues and sustain chronic inflammation. RAGE exists as a single trans-membrane protein with an ectodomain and a short carboxyl-terminal tail essential for signaling, or also as a soluble ectodomain (sRAGE) that acts as a decoy receptor. The ectodomain is composed of a variable and two constant IgG-like domains (V, C1 and C2). VC1 is a single integrated unit responsible for binding of RAGE to the majority of its ligands including the advanced glycation End products (AGEs), S100 proteins and HMGB-1. Here, we report the identification of 20 new RAGE binding partners captured from human plasma and involved in the coagulation and complement processes and in the extracellular matrix. Four proteins contained a -carboxyl glutamic acid (Gla)-domain. Using MicroScale Thermophoresis, we quantified the interaction of prothrombin (PT) with VC1 and with sRAGE. Calcium competed in the binding of PT to sRAGE and PT devoid of the Gla-domain did not bind to sRAGE, providing evidence that the Gla-domain is critical for the interaction. Finally, the presence of VC1 delayed plasma clotting in a dose-dependent manner. We propose that RAGE is involved in modulating blood coagulation presumably in conditions of lung injury.

Advanced glycation end products in human diabetic lens capsules.

Project description:Advanced glycation end products (AGEs) accumulate with age in human lens capsules. AGEs in lens capsules potentiate the transforming growth factor beta-2-mediated mesenchymal transition of lens epithelial cells, which suggests that they play a role in posterior capsule opacification after cataract surgery. We measured AGEs by liquid chromatography-mass spectrometry in capsulorhexis specimens obtained during cataract surgery from nondiabetic and diabetic patients with and without established retinopathy. Our data showed that the levels of most AGEs (12 out of 13 measured) were unaltered in diabetic patients and diabetic patients with retinopathy compared to nondiabetic patients. There was one exception: glucosepane, which was significantly higher in diabetic patients, both with (6.85 pmol/μmol OH-proline) and without retinopathy (8.32 pmol/μmol OH-proline), than in nondiabetic patients (4.01 pmol/μmol OH-proline). Our study provides an explanation for the similar incidence of posterior capsule opacification between nondiabetic and diabetic cataract patients observed in several studies.

Advanced glycation end products regulate the receptor of AGEs epigenetically.

Project description:Advanced glycation end-products (AGEs) can boost their receptor of AGE (RAGE) expression through the downstream signaling pathway to facilitate AGE-RAGE interaction. In this regulation process, the primary signaling pathways are NF-κB and STAT3. However, the inhibition of these transcription factors cannot completely block the upregulation of RAGE, which indicates AGEs may also impact RAGE expression via other pathways. In this study, we revealed that AGEs can exhibit epigenetic impacts on RAGE expression. Here, we used carboxymethyl-lysine (CML) and carboxyethyl-lysine (CEL) to treat liver cells and discovered that AGEs can promote the demethylation of the RAGE promoter region. To verify this epigenetic modification, we employed dCAS9-DNMT3a with sgRNA to specifically modify the RAGE promoter region against the effect of carboxymethyl-lysine and carboxyethyl-lysine. The elevated RAGE expressions were partially repressed after AGE-induced hypomethylation statuses were reversed. Additionally, TET1 were also upregulated in AGE-treated cells, indicating AGEs may epigenetically modulate RAGE through the elevating TET1 level.

Transcriptome analysis of Advanced glycation end products treated ligament cells

Project description:Ossification of the posterior longitudinal ligament (OPLL) is formed by heterogeneous ossification of posterior longitudinal ligament. The patho-mechanism of OPLL is still largely unknown. Recently, disorders of metabolism are thought to be the center of many diseases such as OPLL. Advanced glycation end product (AGE) are accumulated in many extracellular matrixes such as ligament fibers, and it can functions as cellular signal through its receptor (RAGE), contributing to various events such as atherosclerosis or oxidative stress. However, its role in OPLL formation is not yet known. Therefore, we performed high-through-put RNA sequencing on primary posterior longitudinal ligament cells treated with different doses of AGEs (1ÂµM, 5ÂµM and negative control), with or without BMP2 (1ÂµM). mRNA profiles of Primary human posterior longitudinal ligament cells stimulated with various stimuli (Control, 1ÂµM AGE-BSA, 5ÂµM AGE-BSA, 1ÂµM AGE-BSA with BMP2, 5ÂµM AGE-BSA with BMP2) were generated by deep sequencing on Ion Proton

Advanced Glycation End Products:Receptors for Advanced Glycation End Products Axis in Coronary Stent Restenosis: A Prospective Study.

Project description:This study was aimed to correlate the pre- and 6-month postpercutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) serum concentrations of advanced glycation end products (AGE), soluble receptors for advanced glycation end products (sRAGE), AGE/sRAGE ratio, and serum malondialdehyde (MDA) levels with in-stent restenosis (ISR) among patients receiving either a drug-eluting stent (DES) or a bare-metal stent (BMS).In-stent restenosis remains as an adverse outcome following PCI. Sixty consecutive nondiabetic, Caucasian male patients, diagnosed with a non-ST-elevation myocardial infarction who received either a DES or BMS via PCI, were enrolled. Baseline levels of serum AGE, sRAGE, AGE/sRAGE ratios, MDA, and angiographic parameters were determined at stenting and at 6 months. Patients with and without ISR at 6 months were compared on both baseline and 6-month biomarker levels and within stent types.The pre-PCI serum AGE levels and AGE/sRAGE ratios were higher in ISR patients compared with non-ISR patients, while the pre-PCI and post-PCI serum sRAGE levels were lower in ISR patients compared with non-ISR patients. The pre and post-PCI levels of MDA were also higher in ISR patients. Comparing stent types, relative levels of MDA between those with and without ISR at the respective time points were similar, although changes between time points appeared type specific.Post-PCI ISR correlates with low serum values of sRAGE and high serum values of AGE, MDA, and AGE/sRAGE ratio which are present at stenting. The associations of baseline AGE, sRAGE, AGE/sRAGE, and MDA levels with ISR appear consistent between stent types.

The Interaction between Human Microbes and Advanced Glycation End Products: The Role of <i>Klebsiella</i> X15 on Advanced Glycation End Products' Degradation.

Project description:Previous studies have shown that advanced glycation end products (AGEs) are implicated in the occurrence and progression of numerous diseases, with dietary AGEs being particularly associated with intestinal disorders. In this study, methylglyoxal-beta-lactoglobulin AGEs (MGO-β-LG AGEs) were utilized as the exclusive nitrogen source to investigate the interaction between protein-bound AGEs and human gut microbiota. The high-resolution mass spectrometry analysis of alterations in peptides containing AGEs within metabolites before and after fermentation elucidated the capacity of intestinal microorganisms to enzymatically hydrolyze long-chain AGEs into short-chain counterparts. The 16S rRNA sequencing revealed Klebsiella, Lactobacillus, Escherichia-Shigella, and other genera as dominant microbiota at different fermentation times. A total of 187 potential strains of AGE-metabolizing bacteria were isolated from the fermentation broth at various time points. Notably, one strain of Klebsiella exhibited the most robust growth capacity when AGEs served as the sole nitrogen source. Subsequently, proteomics was employed to compare the changes in protein levels of Klebsiella X15 following cultivation in unmodified proteins and proteins modified with AGEs. This analysis unveiled a remodeled amino acid and energy metabolism pathway in Klebsiella in response to AGEs, indicating that Klebsiella may possess a metabolic pathway specifically tailored to AGEs. This study found that fermenting AGEs in healthy human intestinal microbiota altered the bacterial microbiota structure, especially by increasing Klebsiella proliferation, which could be a key factor in AGEs' role in causing diseases, particularly intestinal inflammation.

Advanced glycation end products (AGEs) promote melanogenesis through receptor for AGEs.

Project description:Accumulation of advanced glycation end products (AGEs) is linked with development or aggravation of many degenerative processes or disorders, including aging and atherosclerosis. AGEs production in skin cells is known to promote stiffness and loss of elasticity through their buildup in connective tissue. However, the impact of AGEs has yet to be fully explored in melanocytes. In this study, we confirmed the existence of receptor for AGE (RAGE) in melanocytes in western blot and immunofluorescence along with increased melanin production in ex vivo skin organ culture and in vitro melanocyte culture following AGEs treatment. Cyclic AMP response element-binding protein (CREB) and extracellular signal-regulated kinases (ERK) 1/2 are considered as key regulatory proteins in AGEs-induced melanogenesis. In addition, blockage experiment using anti-RAGE blocking antibody has indicated that RAGE plays a pivotal role in AGE-mediated melanogenesis. Therefore, it is apparent that AGEs, known markers of aging, promote melanogenesis via RAGE. In addition, AGEs could be implicated in pigmentation associated with photoaging according to the results of increased secretion of AGEs from keratinocytes following UV irradiation. AGE-mediated melanogenesis may thus hold promise as a novel mean of altering skin pigmentation.

Identification of Maillard reaction products on peanut allergens that influence binding to the receptor for advanced glycation end products.

Project description:BackgroundRecent immunological data demonstrated that dendritic cells preferentially recognize advanced glycation end product (AGE)-modified proteins, upregulate expression of the receptor for AGE (RAGE), and consequently bias the immune response toward allergy.MethodsPeanut extract was characterized by mass spectrometry (MS) to elucidate the specific residues and specific AGE modifications found in raw and roasted peanuts and on rAra h 1 that was artificially glycated by incubation with glucose or xylose. The binding of the RAGE-V1C1 domain to peanut allergens was assessed by PAGE and Western analysis with anti-Ara h 1, 2, and 3 antibodies. IgE binding to rAra h 1 was also assessed using the same methods.ResultsAGE modifications were found on Ara h 1 and Ara h 3 in both raw and roasted peanut extract. No AGE modifications were found on Ara h 2. Mass spectrometry and Western blot analysis demonstrated that RAGE binds selectively to Ara h 1 and Ara h 3 derived from peanut extract, whereas the analysis failed to demonstrate Ara h 2 binding to RAGE. rAra h 1 with no AGE modifications did not bind RAGE; however, after AGE modification with xylose, rAra h 1 bound to RAGE.ConclusionsAGE modifications to Ara h 1 and Ara h 3 can be found in both raw and roasted peanuts. Receptor for AGE was demonstrated to selectively interact with AGE-modified rAra h 1. If sensitization to peanut allergens occurs in dendritic cells via RAGE interactions, these cells are likely interacting with modified Ara h 1 and Ara h 3, but not Ara h 2.

Advanced Glycation End Products and Receptor (RAGE) Promote Wound Healing of Human Corneal Epithelial Cells.

Project description:Purpose:We used a human corneal epithelial cell (HCE) line to determine the involvement of the advanced glycation end products (AGEs) / receptor for AGEs (RAGE) couple in corneal epithelium wound healing. Methods:After wounding, HCE cells were exposed to two major RAGE ligands (HMGB1 and AGEs), and wound healing was evaluated using the in vitro scratch assay. Following wound healing, the HCE cells were used to study the influence of the RAGE ligands on HCE proliferation, invasion, and migration. Activation of the nuclear factor (NF)-κB signaling pathway by the AGEs/RAGE couple was tested using a luciferase reporter assay. Functional transcriptional regulation by this pathway was confirmed by quantification of expression of the connexin 43 target gene. For each experiment, specific RAGE involvement was confirmed by small interfering RNA treatments. Results:AGEs treatment at a dose of 100 µg/mL significantly improved the wound healing process in a RAGE-dependent manner by promoting cell migration, whereas HMGB1 had no effect. No significant influence of the AGEs/RAGE couple was observed on cell proliferation and invasion. However, this treatment induced an early activation of the NF-κB pathway and positively regulated the expression of the target gene, connexin 43, at both the mRNA and protein levels. Conclusions:Our results demonstrate that the RAGE pathway is activated by AGEs treatment and is involved in the promotion of corneal epithelial wound healing. This positive action is observed only during the early stages of wound healing, as illustrated by the quick activation of the NF-κB pathway and induction of connexin 43 expression.
