USP47-Mediated Deubiquitination and Stabilization of TCEA3 Attenuates Pyroptosis and Apoptosis of Colorectal Cancer Cells Induced by Chemotherapeutic Doxorubicin.

ABSTRACT: The ubiquitin-proteasome system regulates a variety of cellular processes including growth, differentiation and apoptosis. While E1, E2, and E3 are responsible for the conjugation of ubiquitin to substrates, deubiquitinating enzymes (DUBs) reverse the process to remove ubiquitin and edit ubiquitin chains, which have profound effects on substrates' degradation, localization, and activities. In the present study, we found that the deubiquitinating enzyme USP47 was markedly decreased in primary colorectal cancers (CRC). Its reduced expression was associated with shorter disease-free survival of CRC patients. In cultured CRC cells, knockdown of USP47 increased pyroptosis and apoptosis induced by chemotherapeutic doxorubicin. We found that USP47 was able to bind with transcription elongation factor a3 (TCEA3) and regulated its deubiquitination and intracellular level. While ectopic expression of USP47 increased cellular TCEA3 and resistance to doxorubicin, the effect was markedly attenuated by TCEA3 knockdown. Further analysis showed that the level of pro-apoptotic Bax was regulated by TCEA3. These results indicated that the USP47-TCEA3 axis modulates cell pyroptosis and apoptosis and may serve as a target for therapeutic intervention in CRC.

USP19-Mediated Deubiquitination Facilitates the Stabilization of HRD1 Ubiquitin Ligase.

Project description:In the endoplasmic reticulum (ER), misfolded and unfolded proteins are eliminated by a process called ER-associated protein degradation (ERAD) in order to maintain cell homeostasis. In the ERAD pathway, several ER-localized E3 ubiquitin ligases target ERAD substrate proteins for ubiquitination and subsequent proteasomal degradation. However, little is known about how the functions of the ERAD ubiquitin ligases are regulated. Recently, USP19, an ER-anchored deubiquitinating enzyme (DUB), has been suggested to be involved in the regulation of ERAD. In this study, HRD1, an ERAD ubiquitin ligase, is shown to be a novel substrate for USP19. We demonstrate that USP19 rescues HRD1 from proteasomal degradation by deubiquitination of K48-linked ubiquitin chains. In addition, the altered expression of USP19 affects the steady-state levels of HRD1. These results suggest that USP19 regulates the stability of HRD1 and provide insight into the regulatory mechanism of the ERAD ubiquitin ligases.

Exogenous 8-hydroxydeoxyguanosine attenuates doxorubicin-induced cardiotoxicity by decreasing pyroptosis in H9c2 cardiomyocytes.

Project description:Doxorubicin (DOX), which is widely used in cancer treatment, can induce cardiomyopathy. One of the main mechanisms whereby DOX induces cardiotoxicity involves pyroptosis through the NLR family pyrin domain containing 3 (NLRP3) inflammasome and gasdermin D (GSDMD). Increased NAPDH oxidase (NOX) and oxidative stress trigger pyroptosis. Exogenous 8-hydroxydeoxyguanosine (8-OHdG) decreases reactive oxygen species (ROS) production by inactivating NOX. Here, we examined whether 8-OHdG treatment can attenuate DOX-induced pyroptosis in H9c2 cardiomyocytes. Exposure to DOX increased the peroxidative glutathione redox status and NOX1/2/4, toll-like receptor (TLR)2/4, and nuclear factor kappa-light-chain-enhancer of activated B cells (NF-κB) expression, while an additional 8-OHdG treatment attenuated these effects. Furthermore, DOX induced higher expression of NLRP3 inflammasome components, including NLRP3, apoptosis-associated speck-like protein containing a c-terminal caspase recruitment domain (ASC), and pro-caspase-1. Moreover, it increased caspase-1 activity, a marker of pyroptosis, and interleukin (IL)-1β expression. All these effects were attenuated by 8-OHdG treatment. In addition, the expression of the cardiotoxicity markers, atrial natriuretic peptide (ANP) and brain natriuretic peptide (BNP) was increased by DOX, whereas the increase of ANP and BNP induced by DOX treatment was reversed by 8-OHdG. In conclusion, exogenous 8-OHdG attenuated DOX-induced pyroptosis by decreasing the expression of NOX1/2/3, TLR2/4, and NF-κB. Thus, 8-OHdG may attenuate DOX-induced cardiotoxicity through the inhibition of pyroptosis.

m6A Demethylase ALKBH5 attenuates doxorubicin-induced cardiotoxicity via posttranscriptional stabilization of Rasal3

Project description:The clinical application of anthracyclines such as doxorubicin (DOX) is limited due to their cardiotoxicity. N6-methyladenosine (m6A) plays an essential role in numerous biological processes. However, the roles of m6A and m6A demethylase ALKBH5 in DOX-induced cardiotoxicity (DIC) remain unclear. In this research, DIC models were constructed using Alkbh5-knockout (KO), Alkbh5-knockin (KI), and Alkbh5-myocardial-specific knockout (ALKBH5flox/flox, αMyHC-Cre) mice. Cardiac function and DOX-mediated signal transduction were investigated. As a result, both Alkbh5 whole-body KO and myocardial-specific KO mice had increased mortality, decreased cardiac function, and aggravated DIC injury with severe myocardial mitochondrial damage. Conversely, ALKBH5 overexpression alleviated DOX-mediated mitochondrial injury, increased survival, and improved myocardial function. Mechanistically, ALKBH5 regulated the expression of Rasal3 in an m6A-dependent manner through posttranscriptional mRNA regulation and reduced Rasal3 mRNA stability, thus activating RAS3, inhibiting apoptosis through the RAS/RAF/ERK signaling pathway, and alleviating DIC injury. These findings indicate the potential therapeutic effect of ALKBH5 on DIC.

Oncogene-induced senescence mediated by c-Myc requires USP10 dependent deubiquitination and stabilization of p14ARF.

Project description:Oncogene-induced senescence (OIS) is a critical tumor-suppressor mechanism, which prevents hyper-proliferation and transformation of cells. c-Myc promotes OIS through the transcriptional activation of p14ARF followed by p53 activation. Although the oncogene-mediated transcriptional regulation of p14ARF has been well addressed, the post-translational modification of p14ARF regulated by oncogenic stress has yet to be investigated. Here, we found that c-Myc increased p14ARF protein stability by inducing the transcription of ubiquitin-specific protease 10 (USP10). USP10, in turn, mediated the deubiquitination of p14ARF, preventing its proteasome-dependent degradation. USP10-null mouse embryonic fibroblasts and human primary cells depleted of USP10 bypassed c-Myc-induced senescence via the destabilization of p14ARF, and these cells displayed accelerated hyper-proliferation and transformation. Clinically the c-Myc-USP10-p14ARF axis was disrupted in non-small cell lung cancer patients, resulting in significantly worse overall survival. Our studies indicate that USP10 induced by c-Myc has a crucial role in OIS by maintaining the stability of key tumor suppressor p14ARF.

Deubiquitination and Stabilization of PD-L1 by CSN5.

Project description:Pro-inflammatory cytokines produced in the tumor microenvironment lead to eradication of anti-tumor immunity and enhanced tumor cell survival. In the current study, we identified tumor necrosis factor alpha (TNF-?) as a major factor triggering cancer cell immunosuppression against T cell surveillance via stabilization of programmed cell death-ligand 1 (PD-L1). We demonstrated that COP9 signalosome 5 (CSN5), induced by NF-?B p65, is required for TNF-?-mediated PD-L1 stabilization in cancer cells. CSN5 inhibits the ubiquitination and degradation of PD-L1. Inhibition of CSN5 by curcumin diminished cancer cell PD-L1 expression and sensitized cancer cells to anti-CTLA4 therapy.

Deubiquitination and Stabilization of PD-L1 by USP21.

Project description:Recent studies have shown that the expression level of PD-L1 in tumor cells positively correlates with tumor metastasis and recurrence rate. The effects of post-translational modifications (PTMs) of PD-L1 are related to immunosuppression. However, the degradation of PD-L1 in cancers has not yet been sufficiently defined. Here, we identified USP21 as a novel deubiquitinase of PD-L1. Overexpression of USP21 significantly increased PD-L1 abundance while its knockdown induced PD-L1 degradation. In vitro deubiquitination assay revealed that USP21-WT, but not USP21-C221A, reduced polyubiquitin chains of PD-L1. These results highlight the role of USP21 in the deubiquitination and stabilization of PD-L1. Furthermore, we show that USP21 is the frequently amplified deubiquitinase in lung cancer, especially in lung squamous cell carcinoma, and its amplification is accompanied by upregulation of PD-L1. This study reveals the mechanism of USP21-mediated PD-L1 degradation, and suggests that USP21 might be a potential target for the treatment of lung cancer.

Doxorubicin-mediated apoptosis in glioma cells requires NFAT3.

Project description:Nuclear factor of activated T cells (NFAT), a family of transcription factors, has been implicated in many cellular processes, including some cancers. Here, we characterize, for the first time, the role of NFAT3 in doxorubicin (DOX)-mediated apoptosis, migration, and invasion in SNB19 and U87 glioma cells. This study demonstrates that the specific knockdown of NFAT3 results in a dramatic inhibition of the apoptotic effect induced by DOX and favors cell survival. Inhibition of NFAT3 activation by shNFAT3 (shNF3) significantly downregulated tumor necrosis factor (TNF)-alpha induction, its receptor TNFR1, caspase 10, caspase 3, and poly (ADP-ribose) polymerase, abrogating DOX-mediated apoptosis in glioma cells. DOX treatment resulted in NFAT3 translocation to the nucleus. Similarly, shNF3 treatment in SNB19 and U87 cells reversed DOX-induced inhibition of cell migration and invasion, as determined by wound healing and matrigel invasion assays. Taken together, these results indicate that NFAT3 is a prerequisite for the induction of DOX-mediated apoptosis in glioma cells.

Higenamine Attenuates Doxorubicin-Induced Cardiac Remodeling and Myocyte Apoptosis by Suppressing AMPK Activation.

Project description:Background: As an effective antitumor drug, doxorubicin (DOX) is primarily used to treat solid tumors and hematologic malignancies. However, increasing evidence has emerged indicating its cardiotoxicity, and few solutions have been proposed to counter this side effect. Higenamine (HG) is a natural compound widely found in many Chinese herbs and also serves as a component in many healthcare products. Several studies have demonstrated its cardioprotective effect in different models, but little is known about the underlying influences of HG against myocardial damage from DOX-induced chronic cardiotoxicity. Methods and Results: C57BL/6 mice and neonatal rat ventricular cardiomyocytes (NRVMs) were used to evaluate the cardioprotective effect of HG against DOX-induced myocardial damage. In mice, DOX (intraperitoneally injected 5 mg/kg every 3 days for 4 weeks) significantly increased cardiomyocyte apoptosis, cardiac atrophy, and cardiac dysfunction, which were significantly attenuated by HG (intragastrically administered with 10 mg/kg every day for 4 weeks). In NRVMs, DOX (3 μM for 24 h) significantly increased cell apoptosis and the level of reactive oxygen species while reducing the level of superoxide dismutase and mitochondrial membrane potential. Remarkably, HG can reverse these pathological changes caused by DOX. Interestingly, the protective effect of HG on DOX-induced cardiotoxicity was independent of the activation of the beta-2 adrenergic receptor (β2-AR), known for mediating the effect of HG on antagonizing ischemia/reperfusion-induced cardiac apoptosis. Furthermore, HG attenuated the abnormal activation of phosphorylated adenosine-activated protein kinase (AMPK). Consistently, AMPK agonists (AICAR) can eliminate these pharmacological actions of HG. Conclusion: Collectively, our results suggested that HG alleviated DOX-induced chronic myocardial injury by suppressing AMPK activation and ROS production.

HSF1-mediated BAG3 expression attenuates apoptosis in 4-hydroxynonenal-treated colon cancer cells via stabilization of anti-apoptotic Bcl-2 proteins.

Project description:4-Hydroxynonenal (HNE) is a pro-apoptotic electrophile generated during the spontaneous decomposition of oxidized lipids. We have previously shown that HNE activates the transcription factor, heat shock factor 1 (HSF1), and promotes cytoprotective heat shock gene expression and that silencing HSF1 sensitizes the colon cancer cell line RKO to HNE-induced apoptosis. Here we report a reduction in the anti-apoptotic proteins Bcl-X(L), Mcl-1, and Bcl-2 in HSF1-silenced RKO cells, and we examine the underlying mechanism. To investigate the regulation of the Bcl-2 family by HSF1, microarray analysis of gene expression was performed. We observed that the Hsp70 co-chaperone, BAG3 (Bcl-2-associated athanogene domain 3), is strongly induced by HNE in control but not in HSF1-silenced colon cancer cells. Silencing BAG3 expression with small interfering RNA caused a dramatic reduction in Bcl-X(L), Mcl-1, and Bcl-2 protein levels in colon cancer cells and increased apoptosis, similar to the effect of silencing HSF1. Also, immunoprecipitation experiments indicate specific interactions between BAG3, Hsp70, and the Bcl-2 family member, Bcl-X(L). Overall, our data reveal that BAG3 is HSF1-inducible and has a unique role facilitating cancer cell survival during pro-apoptotic stress by stabilizing the level of Bcl-2 family proteins.
