K48-Linked Ubiquitination Contributes to Nicotine-Augmented Bone Marrow-Derived Dendritic-Cell-Mediated Adaptive Immunity.

ABSTRACT: K48-linked ubiquitination determining antigen degradation and the endosomal recruitments of p97 and Sec61 plays vital roles in dendritic cell (DC) cross-presentation. Our previous studies revealed that nicotine treatment increases bone marrow-derived dendritic cell (BM-DC) cross-presentation and promotes BM-DC-based cytotoxic T lymphocyte (CTL) priming. But the effect of nicotine on K48-linked ubiquitination and the mechanism of nicotine-increased BM-DC cross-presentation are still uncertain. In this study, we first demonstrated that ex vivo nicotine administration obviously increased K48-linked ubiquitination in BM-DC. Then, we found that K48-linked ubiquitination was essential for nicotine-augmented cross-presentation, BM-DC-based CTL priming, and thereby the superior cytolytic capacity of DC-activated CTL. Importantly, K48-linked ubiquitination was verified to be necessary for nicotine-augmented endosomal recruitments of p97 and Sec61. Importantly, mannose receptor (MR), which is an important antigenic receptor for cross-presentation, was exactly catalyzed with K48-linked ubiquitination by the treatment with nicotine. Thus, these data suggested that K48-linked ubiquitination contributes to the superior adaptive immunity of nicotine-administrated BM-DC. Regulating K48-linked ubiquitination might have therapeutic potential for DC-mediated immune therapy.

P22077 inhibits LPS-induced inflammatory response by promoting K48-linked ubiquitination and degradation of TRAF6.

Project description:Inflammation is a biological process associated with multiple human disorders such as autoimmune diseases and metabolic diseases. Therefore, alleviation of inflammation is important for disease prevention or treatment. Recently, deubiquitinating enzymes (DUBs), especially ubiquitin specific protease-7 (USP7) attracts increasing attention as a potential drug target for inflammation. As an inhibitor of USP7, P22077 has been used to study the roles of USP7 in inflammatory response and neuroblastoma growth. However, the role and precise mechanism of P22077 in anti-inflammatory is still indistinct. In this study, we demonstrated that P22077 could attenuate the release of pro-inflammatory factors including TNF-?, IL-1?, IL-6 and NO, suppress mRNA expression of COX-2 and iNOS, and inhibit activation of NF-?B and MAPKs signaling pathways in Raw264.7 cells and mouse peritoneal macrophages after LPS stimulation. In vivo study showed that P22077 could relieve inflammatory response and reduce the lung injury in C57BL/6 mice with LPS-induced endotoxemia. Mechanically, P22077 might play an anti-inflammatory role by promoting tumor necrosis factor receptor-associated factor 6 (TRAF6) degradation via K48-linked polyubiquitination. These findings provide a rationale for the role of the P22077 in anti-inflammatory pathway and the promising clinical application of P22077 to treat inflammatory diseases.

Neuronal-specific TNFAIP1 ablation attenuates postoperative cognitive dysfunction via targeting SNAP25 for K48-linked ubiquitination.

Project description:BackgroundSynaptosomal-associated protein 25 (SNAP25) exerts protective effects against postoperative cognitive dysfunction (POCD) by promoting PTEN-induced kinase 1 (PINK1)/Parkin-mediated mitophagy and repressing caspase-3/gasdermin E (GSDME)-mediated pyroptosis. However, the regulatory mechanisms of SNAP25 protein remain unclear.MethodsWe employed recombinant adeno-associated virus 9 (AAV9)-hSyn to knockdown tumor necrosis factor α-induced protein 1 (TNFAIP1) or SNAP25 and investigate the role of TNFAIP1 in POCD. Cognitive performance, hippocampal injury, mitophagy, and pyroptosis were assessed. Co-immunoprecipitation (co-IP) and ubiquitination assays were conducted to elucidate the mechanisms by which TNFAIP1 stabilizes SNAP25.ResultsOur results demonstrated that the ubiquitin ligase TNFAIP1 was upregulated in the hippocampus of mice following isoflurane (Iso) anesthesia and laparotomy. The N-terminal region (residues 1-96) of TNFAIP1 formed a conjugate with SNAP25, leading to lysine (K) 48-linked polyubiquitination of SNAP25 at K69. Silencing TNFAIP1 enhanced SH-SY5Y cell viability and conferred antioxidant, pro-mitophagy, and anti-pyroptosis properties in response to Iso and lipopolysaccharide (LPS) challenges. Conversely, TNFAIP1 overexpression reduced HT22 cell viability, increased reactive oxygen species (ROS) accumulation, impaired PINK1/Parkin-dependent mitophagy, and induced caspase-3/GSDME-dependent pyroptosis by suppressing SNAP25 expression. Neuron-specific knockdown of TNFAIP1 ameliorated POCD, restored mitophagy, and reduced pyroptosis, which was reversed by SNAP25 depletion.ConclusionsIn summary, our findings demonstrated that inhibiting TNFAIP1-mediated degradation of SNAP25 might be a promising therapeutic approach for mitigating postoperative cognitive decline.

E3 ligase RNF99 negatively regulates TLR-mediated inflammatory immune response via K48-linked ubiquitination of TAB2.

Project description:Innate immunity is the first line to defend against pathogenic microorganisms, and Toll-like receptor (TLR)-mediated inflammatory responses are an essential component of innate immunity. However, the regulatory mechanisms of TLRs in innate immunity remain unperfected. We found that the expression of E3 ligase Ring finger protein 99 (RNF99) decreased significantly in peripheral blood monocytes from patients infected with Gram negative bacteria (G-) and macrophages stimulated by TLRs ligands, indicating the role of RNF99. We also demonstrated for the first time, the protective role of RNF99 against LPS-induced septic shock and dextran sodium sulfate (DSS)-induced colitis using RNF99 knockout mice (RNF99-/-) and bone marrow-transplanted mice. In vitro experiments revealed that RNF99 deficiency significantly promoted TLR-mediated inflammatory cytokine expression and activated the NF-κB and MAPK pathways in macrophages. Mechanistically, in both macrophages and HEK293 cell line with TLR4 stably transfection, RNF99 interacted with and degraded TAK1-binding protein (TAB) 2, a regulatory protein of the kinase TAK1, via the lysine (K)48-linked ubiquitin-proteasomal pathway on lysine 611 of TAB2, which further regulated the TLR-mediated inflammatory response. Overall, these findings indicated the physiological significance of RNF99 in macrophages in regulating TLR-mediated inflammatory reactions. It provided new insight into TLRs signal transduction, and offered a novel approach for preventing bacterial infections, endotoxin shock, and other inflammatory ills.

TRIM72 restricts lyssavirus infection by inducing K48-linked ubiquitination and proteasome degradation of the matrix protein.

Project description:The tripartite motif (TRIM) protein family is the largest subfamily of E3 ubiquitin ligases, playing a crucial role in the antiviral process. In this study, we found that TRIM72, a member of the TRIM protein family, was increased in neuronal cells and mouse brains following rabies lyssavirus (RABV) infection. Over-expression of TRIM72 significantly reduced the viral titer of RABV in neuronal cells and mitigated the pathogenicity of RABV in mice. Furthermore, we found that TRIM72 over-expression effectively prevents the assembly and/or release of RABV. In terms of the mechanism, TRIM72 promotes the K48-linked ubiquitination of RABV Matrix protein (M), leading to the degradation of M through the proteasome pathway. TRIM72 directly interacts with M and the interaction sites were identified and confirmed through TRIM72-M interaction model construction and mutation analysis. Further investigation revealed that the degradation of M induced by TRIM72 was attributed to TRIM72's promotion of ubiquitination at site K195 in M. Importantly, the K195 site was found to be partially conserved among lyssavirus's M proteins, and TRIM72 over-expression induced the degradation of these lyssavirus M proteins. In summary, our study has uncovered a TRIM family protein, TRIM72, that can restrict lyssavirus replication by degrading M, and we have identified a novel ubiquitination site (K195) in lyssavirus M.

Loss of TRIM31 promotes breast cancer progression through regulating K48- and K63-linked ubiquitination of p53.

Project description:Breast cancer is the most common cancer in the world. Relapse and metastasis are important factors endangering the life of breast cancer patients, but the mechanism is still unclear. The stabilization of p53 is essential for preventing carcinogenesis, and ubiquitination is one of the main ways to regulate the stability of p53. Tripartite motif-containing 31 (TRIM31) is a new member of the TRIM family and functions as an E3 ubiquitin ligase. It acts as a cancer promoter or suppressor in the malignant processes of multiple cancers. However, the function of TRIM31 in breast cancer progression remains unknown. In this study, we showed that TRIM31 is downregulated in breast cancer tissues and negatively correlated with breast cancer progression. Both gain- and loss-of-function assays indicated that TRIM31 inhibits the proliferation, colony formation, migration, and invasion of breast cancer cells. Further investigation demonstrated that TRIM31 directly interacts with p53, and inducing the K63-linked ubiquitination of p53 via its RING domain, Meanwhile, TRIM31 suppresses the MDM2-mediated K48-linked ubiquitination of p53 through competitive inhibiting the interaction of MDM2 and p53, leading to the p53 stabilization and activation. Knockdown of p53 reversed the inhibitory effects of TRIM31 on the growth and metastasis of breast cancer cells. Moreover, we found that the RING and coiled-coil (C-C) domains of TRIM31 were essential for its tumor suppressor function. Taken together, our findings reveal a novel mechanism by which TRIM31 suppresses breast cancer development through the stabilization and activation of p53 and define a promising therapeutic strategy for restoring TRIM31 to treat breast cancer.

Tripartite motif-containing protein 46 accelerates influenza A H7N9 virus infection by promoting K48-linked ubiquitination of TBK1.

Project description:Avian influenza A H7N9 emerged in 2013, threatening public health and causing acute respiratory distress syndrome, and even death, in the human population. However, the underlying mechanism by which H7N9 virus causes human infection remains elusive. Herein, we infected A549 cells with H7N9 virus for different times and assessed tripartite motif-containing protein 46 (TRIM46) expression. To determine the role of TRIM46 in H7N9 infection, we applied lentivirus-based TRIM46 short hairpin RNA sequences and overexpression plasmids to explore virus replication, and changes in type I interferons and interferon regulatory factor 3 (IRF3) phosphorylation levels in response to silencing and overexpression of TRIM46. Finally, we used Co-immunoprecipitation and ubiquitination assays to examine the mechanism by which TRIM46 mediated the activity of TANK-binding kinase 1 (TBK1). Type I interferons play an important role in defending virus infection. Here, we found that TRIM46 levels were significantly increased during H7N9 virus infection. Furthermore, TRIM46 knockdown inhibited H7N9 virus replication compared to that in the control group, while the production of type I interferons increased. Meanwhile, overexpression of TRIM46 promoted H7N9 virus replication and decrease the production of type I interferons. In addition, the level of phosphorylated IRF3, an important interferon regulatory factor, was increased in TRIM46-silenced cells, but decreased in TRIM46 overexpressing cells. Mechanistically, we observed that TRIM46 could interact with TBK1 to induce its K48-linked ubiquitination, which promoted H7N9 virus infection. Our results suggest that TRIM46 negatively regulates the human innate immune response against H7N9 virus infection.

K48-linked KLF4 ubiquitination by E3 ligase Mule controls T-cell proliferation and cell cycle progression.

Project description:T-cell proliferation is regulated by ubiquitination but the underlying molecular mechanism remains obscure. Here we report that Lys-48-linked ubiquitination of the transcription factor KLF4 mediated by the E3 ligase Mule promotes T-cell entry into S phase. Mule is elevated in T cells upon TCR engagement, and Mule deficiency in T cells blocks proliferation because KLF4 accumulates and drives upregulation of its transcriptional targets E2F2 and the cyclin-dependent kinase inhibitors p21 and p27. T-cell-specific Mule knockout (TMKO) mice develop exacerbated experimental autoimmune encephalomyelitis (EAE), show impaired generation of antigen-specific CD8+ T cells with reduced cytokine production, and fail to clear LCMV infections. Thus, Mule-mediated ubiquitination of the novel substrate KLF4 regulates T-cell proliferation, autoimmunity and antiviral immune responses in vivo.

TRIM24 facilitates antiviral immunity through mediating K63-linked TRAF3 ubiquitination.

Project description:Ubiquitination is an essential mechanism in the control of antiviral immunity upon virus infection. Here, we identify a series of ubiquitination-modulating enzymes that are modulated by vesicular stomatitis virus (VSV). Notably, TRIM24 is down-regulated through direct transcriptional suppression induced by VSV-activated IRF3. Reducing or ablating TRIM24 compromises type I IFN (IFN-I) induction upon RNA virus infection and thus renders mice more sensitive to VSV infection. Mechanistically, VSV infection induces abundant TRIM24 translocation to mitochondria, where TRIM24 binds with TRAF3 and directly mediates K63-linked TRAF3 ubiquitination at K429/K436. This modification of TRAF3 enables its association with MAVS and TBK1, which consequently activates downstream antiviral signaling. Together, these findings establish TRIM24 as a critical positive regulator in controlling the activation of antiviral signaling and describe a previously unknown mechanism of TRIM24 function.

The Ubiquitin E3 Ligase Parkin Inhibits Innate Antiviral Immunity Through K48-Linked Polyubiquitination of RIG-I and MDA5.

Project description:Innate immunity is the first-line defense against antiviral or antimicrobial infection. RIG-I and MDA5, which mediate the recognition of pathogen-derived nucleic acids, are essential for production of type I interferons (IFN). Here, we identified mitochondrion depolarization inducer carbonyl cyanide 3-chlorophenylhydrazone (CCCP) inhibited the response and antiviral activity of type I IFN during viral infection. Furthermore, we found that the PTEN-induced putative kinase 1 (PINK1) and the E3 ubiquitin-protein ligase Parkin mediated mitophagy, thus negatively regulating the activation of RIG-I and MDA5. Parkin directly interacted with and catalyzed the K48-linked polyubiquitination and subsequent degradation of RIG-I and MDA5. Thus, we demonstrate that Parkin limits RLR-triggered innate immunity activation, suggesting Parkin as a potential therapeutic target for the control of viral infection.

Elevated ubiquitination contributes to protective immunity against severe SARS-CoV-2 infection.

Project description:BackgroundThe crosstalk between the ubiquitin-proteasome and the immune system plays an important role in the health and pathogenesis of viral infection. However, there have been few studies of ubiquitin activation in severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) infection.MethodsWe investigated the effect of ubiquitination on SARS-CoV-2 infection and patient prognosis by integrating published coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) multi-transcriptome data and bioinformatics methods.ResultsThe differential expression of COVID-19 samples revealed changed ubiquitination in most solid and hollow organs, and it was activated in lymphatic and other immune tissues. In addition, in the respiratory system of COVID-19 patients, the immune response was mainly focused on the alveoli, and the expression of ubiquitination reflected increasing immune infiltration. Ubiquitination stratification could significantly differentiate patients' prognosis and inflammation levels through the general transcriptional analysis of the peripheral blood of patients with COVID-19. Moreover, high ubiquitination levels were associated with a favourable prognosis, low inflammatory response, and reduced mechanical ventilation and intensive care unit. Moreover, high ubiquitination promoted a beneficial immune response while inhibiting immune damage. Finally, prognostic stratification and biomarker screening based on ubiquitination traits played an important role in clinical management and drug development.ConclusionUbiquitination characteristics provides new ideas for clinical intervention and prognostic guidance for COVID-19 patients.
