FGF21 is required for the metabolic benefits of IKKε/TBK1 inhibition.

ABSTRACT: The protein kinases IKKε and TBK1 are activated in liver and fat in mouse models of obesity. We have previously demonstrated that treatment with the IKKε/TBK1 inhibitor amlexanox produces weight loss and relieves insulin resistance in obese animals and patients. While amlexanox treatment caused a transient reduction in food intake, long-term weight loss was attributable to increased energy expenditure via FGF21-dependent beiging of white adipose tissue (WAT). Amlexanox increased FGF21 synthesis and secretion in several tissues. Interestingly, although hepatic secretion determined circulating levels, it was dispensable for regulating energy expenditure. In contrast, adipocyte-secreted FGF21 may have acted as an autocrine factor that led to adipose tissue browning and weight loss in obese mice. Moreover, increased energy expenditure was an important determinant of improved insulin sensitivity by amlexanox. Conversely, the immediate reductions in fasting blood glucose observed with acute amlexanox treatment were mediated by the suppression of hepatic glucose production via activation of STAT3 by adipocyte-secreted IL-6. These findings demonstrate that amlexanox improved metabolic health via FGF21 action in adipocytes to increase energy expenditure via WAT beiging and that adipocyte-derived IL-6 has an endocrine role in decreasing gluconeogenesis via hepatic STAT3 activation, thereby producing a coordinated improvement in metabolic parameters.

The TBK1/IKKε inhibitor amlexanox improves dyslipidemia and prevents atherosclerosis.

Project description:Cardiovascular diseases, especially atherosclerosis and its complications, are a leading cause of death. Inhibition of the noncanonical IκB kinases TANK-binding kinase 1 and IKKε with amlexanox restores insulin sensitivity and glucose homeostasis in diabetic mice and human patients. Here we report that amlexanox improves diet-induced hypertriglyceridemia and hypercholesterolemia in Western diet-fed (WD-fed) Ldlr-/- mice and protects against atherogenesis. Amlexanox ameliorated dyslipidemia, inflammation, and vascular dysfunction through synergistic actions that involve upregulation of bile acid synthesis to increase cholesterol excretion. Transcriptomic profiling demonstrated an elevated expression of key bile acid synthesis genes. Furthermore, we found that amlexanox attenuated monocytosis, eosinophilia, and vascular dysfunction during WD-induced atherosclerosis. These findings demonstrate the potential of amlexanox as a therapy for hypercholesterolemia and atherosclerosis.

IKKε and TBK1 in diffuse large B-cell lymphoma: A possible mechanism of action of an IKKε/TBK1 inhibitor to repress NF-κB and IL-10 signalling.

Project description:The IKK-related kinases, IKKε and TBK1, have essential roles in innate immunity in part through modifying MYD88 signalling from the Toll-like receptors to regulate NF-κB signalling. We investigated the expression and function of IKKε and TBK1, in diffuse large B-cell lymphoma (DLBCL). DLBCL cell lines and patient-derived xenografts were used to determine their sensitivity to IKKε and TBK1 inhibitors. To understand the function of IKKε and TBK1 secreted factors were determined following administration of inhibitors. Gene expression microarrays were used to determine the transcriptional effects of inhibitors. Higher TBK1 mRNA levels associated with poorer clinical outcome but IKKε and TBK1 were expressed in both germinal centre and non-germinal centre types of DLBCL. Survival of cell lines Ly10, Ly03 and Pfeiffer, and of some primary human lymphoma cells, was suppressed by a small molecule IKKε/TBK1 inhibitor, DMX3433. DMX3433 reduced IL-10 production from Ly10 and repressed NF-κB mediated transcription. Inhibition of IKKε and TBK1 warrants further investigation as a potential therapeutic route to suppress NF-κB signalling in lymphoma.

Roles for the IKK-Related Kinases TBK1 and IKKε in Cancer.

Project description:While primarily studied for their roles in innate immune response, the IκB kinase (IKK)-related kinases TANK-binding kinase 1 (TBK1) and IKKε also promote the oncogenic phenotype in a variety of cancers. Additionally, several substrates of these kinases control proliferation, autophagy, cell survival, and cancer immune responses. Here we review the involvement of TBK1 and IKKε in controlling different cancers and in regulating responses to cancer immunotherapy.

TBK1 and IKKε prevent TNF-induced cell death by RIPK1 phosphorylation.

Project description:The linear-ubiquitin chain assembly complex (LUBAC) modulates signalling via various immune receptors. In tumour necrosis factor (TNF) signalling, linear (also known as M1) ubiquitin enables full gene activation and prevents cell death. However, the mechanisms underlying cell death prevention remain ill-defined. Here, we show that LUBAC activity enables TBK1 and IKKε recruitment to and activation at the TNF receptor 1 signalling complex (TNFR1-SC). While exerting only limited effects on TNF-induced gene activation, TBK1 and IKKε are essential to prevent TNF-induced cell death. Mechanistically, TBK1 and IKKε phosphorylate the kinase RIPK1 in the TNFR1-SC, thereby preventing RIPK1-dependent cell death. This activity is essential in vivo, as it prevents TNF-induced lethal shock. Strikingly, NEMO (also known as IKKγ), which mostly, but not exclusively, binds the TNFR1-SC via M1 ubiquitin, mediates the recruitment of the adaptors TANK and NAP1 (also known as AZI2). TANK is constitutively associated with both TBK1 and IKKε, while NAP1 is associated with TBK1. We discovered a previously unrecognized cell death checkpoint that is mediated by TBK1 and IKKε, and uncovered an essential survival function for NEMO, whereby it enables the recruitment and activation of these non-canonical IKKs to prevent TNF-induced cell death.

MAVS activates TBK1 and IKKε through TRAFs in NEMO dependent and independent manner.

Project description:Mitochondrial antiviral-signaling protein (MAVS) transmits signals from RIG-I-like receptors after RNA virus infections. However, the mechanism by which MAVS activates downstream components, such as TBK1 and IKKα/β, is unclear, although previous work suggests the involvement of NEMO or TBK1-binding proteins TANK, NAP1, and SINTBAD. Here, we report that MAVS-mediated innate immune activation is dependent on TRAFs, partially on NEMO, but not on TBK1-binding proteins. MAVS recruited TBK1/IKKε by TRAFs that were pre-associated with TBK1/IKKε via direct interaction between the coiled-coil domain of TRAFs and the SDD domain of TBK1/IKKε. TRAF2-/-3-/-5-/-6-/- cells completely lost RNA virus responses. TRAFs' E3 ligase activity was required for NEMO activation by synthesizing ubiquitin chains that bound to NEMO for NF-κB and TBK1/IKKε activation. NEMO-activated IKKα/β were important for TBK1/IKKε activation through IKKα/β-mediated TBK1/IKKε phosphorylation. Moreover, individual TRAFs differently mediated TBK1/IKKε activation and thus fine-tuned antiviral immunity under physiological conditions.

TBK1 and IKKε protect target cells from IFNgamma-mediated inflammatory apoptosis

Project description:T cells produce interferon gamma (IFNγ), but it is unclear whether they can use IFNγ to directly kill target cells. Here, we report that tumor targets lacking TBK1 and IKKε are killed by IFNγ, which induces expression of TNFR1 and the Z-nucleic acid sensor, ZBP1 to trigger RIPK1-dependent apoptosis. Concurrent with apoptosis, IFNγ unexpectedly also induces hyperactivation of NFκB in TBK1 and IKKε double-deficient cells. The two kinases normally function to inhibit IKKa/b activity and in their absence, IFNγ induces elevated expression of inflammatory genes. Thus, IFNγ can induce an inflammatory form of apoptosis that is normally suppressed by TBK1 and IKKε. These kinases regulate three responses: (1) induction of type I IFN; (2) inhibition of RIPK1-dependent death; and (3) inhibition of NFκB-dependent inflammation. We propose that these kinases evolved these intertwined functions so that cells infected by pathogens encoding TBK1/IKKε antagonists to block type I IFN expression will be killed by IFNγ-secreting T cells to generate an alternate NFκB-dependent inflammatory response.

TBK1 and IKKε act like an OFF switch to limit NLRP3 inflammasome pathway activation.

Project description:NACHT, LRR, and PYD domains-containing protein 3 (NLRP3) inflammasome activation is beneficial during infection and vaccination but, when uncontrolled, is detrimental and contributes to inflammation-driven pathologies. Hence, discovering endogenous mechanisms that regulate NLRP3 activation is important for disease interventions. Activation of NLRP3 is regulated at the transcriptional level and by posttranslational modifications. Here, we describe a posttranslational phospho-switch that licenses NLRP3 activation in macrophages. The ON switch is controlled by the protein phosphatase 2A (PP2A) downstream of a variety of NLRP3 activators in vitro and in lipopolysaccharide-induced peritonitis in vivo. The OFF switch is regulated by two closely related kinases, TANK-binding kinase 1 (TBK1) and I-kappa-B kinase epsilon (IKKε). Pharmacological inhibition of TBK1 and IKKε, as well as simultaneous deletion of TBK1 and IKKε, but not of either kinase alone, increases NLRP3 activation. In addition, TBK1/IKKε inhibitors counteract the effects of PP2A inhibition on inflammasome activity. We find that, mechanistically, TBK1 interacts with NLRP3 and controls the pathway activity at a site distinct from NLRP3-serine 3, previously reported to be under PP2A control. Mutagenesis of NLRP3 confirms serine 3 as an important phospho-switch site but, surprisingly, reveals that this is not the sole site regulated by either TBK1/IKKε or PP2A, because all retain the control over the NLRP3 pathway even when serine 3 is mutated. Altogether, a model emerges whereby TLR-activated TBK1 and IKKε act like a "parking brake" for NLRP3 activation at the time of priming, while PP2A helps remove this parking brake in the presence of NLRP3 activating signals, such as bacterial pore-forming toxins or endogenous danger signals.

The role of TBK1 and IKKε in the expression and activation of Pellino 1.

Project description:Mammalian Pellino isoforms are phosphorylated by IRAK (interleukin receptor associated kinase) 1/IRAK4 in vitro, converting them into active E3 ubiquitin ligases. In the present paper we report a striking enhancement in both transcription of the gene encoding Pellino 1 and Pellino 1 protein expression when murine BMDMs (bone-marrow-derived macrophages) are stimulated with LPS (lipopolysaccharide) or poly(I:C). This induction occurs via a TRIF [TIR (Toll/interleukin-1 receptor)-domain-containing adaptor-inducing interferon-β]-dependent IRAK-independent pathway and is prevented by inhibition of the IKK [IκB (inhibitor of nuclear factor κB) kinase]-related protein kinases, TBK1 {TANK [TRAF (tumour-necrosis-factor-receptor-associated factor)-associated nuclear factor κB activator]-binding kinase 1} and IKKε. Pellino 1 is not induced in IRF3 (interferon regulatory factor 3)-/- BMDMs, and its induction is only reduced slightly in type 1 interferon receptor-/- BMDMs, identifying Pellino 1 as a new IRF3-dependent gene. We also identify Pellino 1 in a two-hybrid screen using IKKε as bait, and show that IKKε/TBK1 activate Pellino 1 in vitro by phosphorylating Ser76, Thr288 and Ser293. Moreover, we show that the E3 ligase activity of endogenous Pellino 1 is activated in LPS- or poly(I:C)-stimulated macrophages. This occurs more rapidly than the increase in Pellino 1 mRNA and protein expression, is prevented by the inhibition of IKKε/TBK1 and is reversed by phosphatase treatment. Thus IKKε/TBK1 mediate the activation of Pellino 1's E3 ligase activity, as well as inducing the transcription of its gene and protein expression in response to TLR3 and TLR4 agonists.

Phosphorylation of RAB7 by TBK1/IKKε Regulates Innate Immune Signaling in Triple-Negative Breast Cancer.

Project description:Triple-negative breast cancer (TNBC) is a heterogeneous disease enriched for mutations in PTEN and dysregulation of innate immune signaling. Here, we demonstrate that Rab7, a recently identified substrate of PTEN phosphatase activity, is also a substrate of the innate immune signaling kinases TANK-binding kinase 1 (TBK1)/IκB kinase ε (IKKε) on the same serine-72 (S72) site. An unbiased search for novel TBK1/IKKε substrates using stable isotope labeling with amino acids in cell culture phosphoproteomic analysis identified Rab7-S72 as a top hit. PTEN-null TNBC cells expressing a phosphomimetic version of Rab7-S72 exhibited diffuse cytosolic Rab7 localization and enhanced innate immune signaling, in contrast to a kinase-resistant version, which localized to active puncta that promote lysosomal-mediated stimulator of interferon genes (STING) degradation. Thus, convergence of PTEN loss and TBK1/IKKε activation on Rab7-S72 phosphorylation limited STING turnover and increased downstream production of IRF3 targets including CXCL10, CCL5, and IFNβ. Consistent with this data, PTEN-null TNBC tumors expressed higher levels of STING, and PTEN-null TNBC cell lines were hyperresponsive to STING agonists. Together, these findings begin to uncover how innate immune signaling is dysregulated downstream of TBK1/IKKε in a subset of TNBCs and reveals previously unrecognized cross-talk with STING recycling that may have implications for STING agonism in the clinic. SIGNIFICANCE: These findings identify Rab7 as a substrate for TBK1 for regulation of innate immune signaling, thereby providing important insight for strategies aimed at manipulating the immune response to enhance therapeutic efficacy in TNBC.

Viral suppression of innate immunity via spatial isolation of TBK1/IKKε from mitochondrial antiviral platform.

Project description:For antiviral signaling mediated by retinoic acid-inducible gene I (RIG-I)-like receptors (RLRs), the recruitment of cytosolic RLRs and downstream molecules (such as TBK1 and IKKε) to mitochondrial platform is a central event that facilitates the establishment of host antiviral state. Here, we present an example of viral targeting for immune evasion through spatial isolation of TBK1/IKKε from mitochondrial antiviral platform, which was employed by severe fever with thrombocytopenia syndrome virus (SFTSV), a deadly bunyavirus emerging recently. We showed that SFTSV nonstructural protein NSs functions as the interferon (IFN) antagonist, mainly via suppressing TBK1/IKKε-IRF3 signaling. NSs mediates the formation of cytoplasmic inclusion bodies (IBs), and the blockage of IB formation impairs IFN-inhibiting activity of NSs. We next demonstrate that IBs are utilized to compartmentalize TBK1/IKKε. The compartmentalization results in spatial isolation of the kinases from mitochondria, and deprived TBK1/IKKε may participate in antiviral complex assembly, leading to the blockage of IFN induction. This study proposes a new role of viral IBs as virus-built 'jail' for imprisoning cellular factors and presents a novel and likely common mechanism of viral immune evasion through spatial isolation of critical signaling molecules from the mitochondrial antiviral platform.
