MARCH5 promotes STING pathway activation by suppressing polymer formation of oxidized STING

ABSTRACT: Stimulator of interferon genes (STING) is a core DNA sensing adaptor in innate immune signaling. STING activity is regulated by a variety of post-translational modifications (PTMs), including phosphorylation, ubiquitination, sumoylation, palmitoylation, and oxidation, as well as the balance between active and inactive polymer formation. It remains unclear, though, how different PTMs and higher order structures cooperate to regulate STING activity. Here, we report that the mitochondrial ubiquitin ligase MARCH5 (Membrane Associated Ring-CH-type Finger 5, also known as MITOL) ubiquitinates STING and enhances its activation. A long-term MARCH5 deficiency, in contrast, leads to the production of reactive oxygen species, which then facilitate the formation of inactive STING polymers by oxidizing mouse STING cysteine 205. We show that MARCH5-mediated ubiquitination of STING prevents the oxidation-induced STING polymer formation. Our findings highlight that MARCH5 balances STING ubiquitination and polymer formation and its control of STING activation is contingent on oxidative conditions.

Streptococcal M protein promotes IL-10 production by cGAS-independent activation of the STING signaling pathway.

Project description:From an evolutionary point of view a pathogen might benefit from regulating the inflammatory response, both in order to facilitate establishment of colonization and to avoid life-threatening host manifestations, such as septic shock. In agreement with this notion Streptococcus pyogenes exploits type I IFN-signaling to limit detrimental inflammation in infected mice, but the host-pathogen interactions and mechanisms responsible for induction of the type I IFN response have remained unknown. Here we used a macrophage infection model and report that S. pyogenes induces anti-inflammatory IL-10 in an M protein-dependent manner, a function that was mapped to the B- and C-repeat regions of the M5 protein. Intriguingly, IL-10 was produced downstream of type I IFN-signaling, and production of type I IFN occurred via M protein-dependent activation of the STING signaling pathway. Activation of STING was independent of the cytosolic double stranded DNA sensor cGAS, and infection did not induce detectable release into the cytosol of either mitochondrial, nuclear or bacterial DNA-indicating DNA-independent activation of the STING pathway in S. pyogenes infected macrophages. These findings provide mechanistic insight concerning how S. pyogenes induces the type I IFN response and identify a previously unrecognized macrophage-modulating role for the streptococcal M protein that may contribute to curb the inflammatory response to infection.

Oncolytic adenovirus promotes vascular normalization and nonclassical tertiary lymphoid structure formation through STING-mediated DC activation.

Project description:Inducing a full antitumor immune response in the tumor microenvironment (TME) is essential for successful cancer immunotherapy. Here, we report that an oncolytic adenovirus carrying mIL-15 (Ad-IL15) can effectively induce antitumor immune response and inhibit tumor growth in a mouse model of cancer. We found that Ad-IL15 facilitated the activation and infiltration of immune cells, including dendritic cells (DCs), T cells and natural killer (NK) cells, in the TME. Unexpectedly, we observed that Ad-IL15 also induced vascular normalization and tertiary lymphoid structure formation in the TME. Moreover, we demonstrated these Ad-IL15-induced changes in the TME were depended on the Ad-IL15-induced activation of the STING-TBK1-IRF3 pathway in DCs. Taken together, our findings suggest that Ad-IL15 is a candidate for cancer immunotherapy that promotes immune cell activation and infiltration, tumor vascular normalization and tertiary lymphoid structure formation in the TME.

Activation of cGAS/STING pathway upon paramyxovirus infection.

Project description:During inflammatory diseases, cancer, and infection, the cGAS/STING pathway is known to recognize foreign or self-DNA in the cytosol and activate an innate immune response. Here, we report that negative-strand RNA paramyxoviruses, Nipah virus (NiV), and measles virus (MeV), can also trigger the cGAS/STING axis. Although mice deficient for MyD88, TRIF, and MAVS still moderately control NiV infection when compared with wild-type mice, additional STING deficiency resulted in 100% lethality, suggesting synergistic roles of these pathways in host protection. Moreover, deletion of cGAS or STING resulted in decreased type I interferon production with enhanced paramyxoviral infection in both human and murine cells. Finally, the phosphorylation and ubiquitination of STING, observed during viral infections, confirmed the activation of cGAS/STING pathway by NiV and MeV. Our data suggest that cGAS/STING activation is critical in controlling paramyxovirus infection and possibly represents attractive targets to develop countermeasures against severe disease induced by these pathogens.

STING Pathway Activation Stimulates Potent Immunity against Acute Myeloid Leukemia.

Project description:Type I interferon (IFN), essential for spontaneous T cell priming against solid tumors, is generated through recognition of tumor DNA by STING. Interestingly, we observe that type I IFN is not elicited in animals with disseminated acute myeloid leukemia (AML). Further, survival of leukemia-bearing animals is not diminished in the absence of type I IFN signaling, suggesting that STING may not be triggered by AML. However, the STING agonist, DMXAA, induces expression of IFN-? and other inflammatory cytokines, promotes dendritic cell (DC) maturation, and results in the striking expansion of leukemia-specific T cells. Systemic DMXAA administration significantly extends survival in two AML models. The therapeutic effect of DMXAA is only partially dependent on host type I IFN signaling, suggesting that other cytokines are important. A synthetic cyclic dinucleotide that also activates human STING provided a similar anti-leukemic effect. These data demonstrate that STING is a promising immunotherapeutic target in AML.

Oxidized mitochondrial DNA sensing by STING signaling promotes the antitumor effect of an irradiated immunogenic cancer cell vaccine.

Project description:Exposure to ionizing radiation, a physical treatment that inactivates live tumor cells, has been extensively applied to enhance the antitumor responses induced by cancer cell vaccines in both animal research and human clinical trials. However, the mechanisms by which irradiated cells function as immunogenic tumor vaccines and induce effective antitumor responses have not been fully explored. Here, we demonstrate that oxidized mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA) and stimulator of interferon genes (STING) signaling play a key roles in the enhanced antitumor effect achieved with an irradiated tumor cell vaccine. Elevations in ROS and oxidized mtDNA 8-OHG content could be induced in irradiated tumor cells. Oxidized mtDNA derived from irradiated tumor cells gained access to the cytosol of dendritic cells (DCs). Oxidized mtDNA, as a DAMP or adjuvant, activated the STING-TBK1-IRF3-IFN-β pathway in DCs, which subsequently cross-presented irradiated tumor cell-derived antigens to CD8+ T cells and elicited antitumor immunity. The results of our study provide insight into the mechanism by which an irradiated cell vaccine mediates antitumor immunity, which may have implications for new strategies to improve the efficacy of irradiated vaccines.

mtDNA-STING pathway promotes necroptosis-dependent enterocyte injury in intestinal ischemia reperfusion.

Project description:Intestinal ischemia reperfusion (I/R) injury is the important pathogenesis for acute intestinal barrier disruption. The STING signaling is associated with gut homeostasis and barrier integrity. However, the biological function and regulation of STING signaling in intestinal I/R injury are not yet fully understood. As the ligand of STING signaling, the mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA) has been found to be associated with necroptosis. It still remains unknown whether mtDNA-STING signaling triggers intestinal necroptosis in intestinal I/R injury. We found that circulating RIPK3 was significantly increased and had a positive correlation with markers of enterocyte injury in critically ill patients with intestinal injury. Moreover, the levels of circulating mtDNA were also associated with the levels of circulating RIPK3. To explore the relationship between mtDNA and intestinal necroptosis, mice were treated with the intraperitoneal injection of mtDNA, and necroptosis signaling was remarkably activated and the inhibition of necroptosis alleviated mtDNA-induced intestinal injury. Furthermore, STING knockout mice showed an alleviated intestinal necroptosis. In intestinal I/R injury, mtDNA was released from IECs and necroptosis was also triggered, companied with a significant decrease of RIPK3 in the intestine. STING knockout mice markedly attenuated intestinal necroptosis and intestinal I/R injury. Finally, we found that mtDNA-mediated STING signaling triggered necroptosis through synergistic IFN and TNF-α signaling in primary IECs. Our results indicated that mtDNA-STING signaling can contribute to intestinal I/R injury by promoting IEC necroptosis. STING-mediated both IFN and TNF-α signaling can trigger intestinal nercroptosis.

MARCH5-dependent NLRP3 ubiquitination is required for mitochondrial NLRP3-NEK7 complex formation and NLRP3 inflammasome activation

Project description:The NLRP3 inflammasome plays a key role in responding to pathogens and endogenous damage and mitochondria are intensively involved in inflammasome activation. The NLRP3 inflammasome forms multiprotein complexes and its sequential assembly is important for its activation. Here, we show that NLRP3 is ubiquitinated by the mitochondria-associated E3 ligase, MARCH5. Myeloid cell-specific March5 conditional knockout (March5 cKO) mice failed to secrete IL-1 and IL-18 and exhibited an attenuated mortality rate upon LPS or Pseudomonas aeruginosa challenge. Macrophages derived from March5 cKO mice also did not produce IL-1β and IL-18 after microbial infection. Mechanistically, MARCH5 interacts with the NACHT domain of NLRP3 and promotes K27-linked polyubiquitination on K324 and K430 residues of NLRP3. Ubiquitination-defective NLRP3 mutants on K324 and K430 residues are not able to bind to NEK7, nor form NLRP3 oligomers leading to abortive ASC speck formation and diminished IL-1β production. Thus, MARCH5-dependent NLRP3 ubiquitination on the mitochondria is required for NLRP3-NEK7 complex formation and NLRP3 oligomerization. We propose that the E3 ligase MARCH5 is a regulator of NLRP3 inflammasome activation on the mitochondria.

Oxidized CaMKII promotes asthma through the activation of mast cells.

Project description:Oxidation of calmodulin-dependent protein kinase II (ox-CaMKII) by ROS has been associated with asthma. However, the contribution of ox-CaMKII to the development of asthma remains to be fully characterized. Here, we tested the effect of ox-CaMKII on IgE-mediated mast cell activation in an allergen-induced mouse model of asthma using oxidant-resistant CaMKII MMVV? knockin (MMVV?) mice. Compared with WT mice, the allergen-challenged MMVV? mice displayed less airway hyperresponsiveness (AHR) and inflammation. These MMVV? mice exhibited reduced levels of ROS and diminished recruitment of mast cells to the lungs. OVA-activated bone marrow-derived mast cells (BMMCs) from MMVV? mice showed a significant inhibition of ROS and ox-CaMKII expression. ROS generation was dependent on intracellular Ca2+ concentration in BMMCs. Importantly, OVA-activated MMVV? BMMCs had suppressed degranulation, histamine release, leukotriene C4, and IL-13 expression. Adoptive transfer of WT, but not MMVV?, BMMCs, reversed the alleviated AHR and inflammation in allergen-challenged MMVV? mice. The CaMKII inhibitor KN-93 significantly suppressed IgE-mediated mast cell activation and asthma. These studies support a critical but previously unrecognized role of ox-CaMKII in mast cells that promotes asthma and suggest that therapies to reduce ox-CaMKII may be a novel approach for asthma.

Mitochondrial ubiquitin ligase MARCH5 promotes TLR7 signaling by attenuating TANK action.

Project description:The signaling of Toll-like receptors (TLRs) is the host's first line of defense against microbial invasion. The mitochondrion is emerging as a critical platform for antiviral signal transduction. The regulatory role of mitochondria for TLR signaling remains to be explored. Here, we show that the mitochondrial outer-membrane protein MARCH5 positively regulates TLR7 signaling. Ectopic expression or knockdown of MARCH5 enhances or impairs NF-?B-mediated gene expression, respectively. MARCH5 interacts specifically with TANK, and this interaction is enhanced by R837 stimulation. MARCH5 catalyzes the K63-linked poly-ubiquitination of TANK on its Lysines 229, 233, 280, 302 and 306, thus impairing the ability of TANK to inhibit TRAF6. Mislocalization of MARCH5 abolishes its action on TANK, revealing the critical role of mitochondria in modulating innate immunity. Arguably, this represents the first study linking mitochondria to TLR signaling.
