Activation of a novel ULK1-MLK3-ERK5 pathway by the IFNg receptor is required for IFNg-inducible antiviral responses

ABSTRACT: Although well established that signal transducer and activator of transcription 1 (STAT1) activation is required for an interferon (IFN)-mediated antiviral response, the potential roles of other IFNg-activated cellular pathways in the process are unknown. We provide evidence that Unc-51-like kinase 1 (ULK1) is activated during engagement of the Type II IFN receptor and is required for IFNg-mediated transcription of key interferon stimulated genes involved in anti-viral and innate immune responses.

Central Role of ULK1 in Type I Interferon Signaling

Central Role of ULK1 in Type I Interferon Signaling

Project description:We provide evidence that the Unc-51-like kinase 1 (ULK1) is phosphorylated and activated during engagement of the Type I IFN receptor. Our studies demonstrate that the function of ULK1 controls expression of key interferon stimulated genes (ISGs) that mediate important biological functions, including anti-viral and antineoplastic responses. Total RNA was isolated from untreated and IFNβ-treated Ulk1/2+/+ and Ulk1/2-/- mouse embryonic fibroblasts (MEFs). Cells were treated for 6 hours with or without mouse IFNβ (2500 IU/ml).

ULK1 as a novel therapeutic target to enhance immune checkpoint therapies against melanoma

Project description:Immune checkpoint inhibitors (ICIs) have transformed the treatment of melanoma. However, the majority of patients have primary or acquired resistance to ICIs, limiting durable responses and patient survival. Interferon-gamma (IFNg) signaling and the expression of IFNg-stimulated genes correlate with either response or resistance to ICIs, in a context-dependent manner. While IFNg-inducible immunostimulatory genes are required for response to ICIs, chronic IFNg signaling induces the expression of immunosuppressive genes, promoting resistance to these therapies. Here, we show that high levels of ULK1 correlate with poor survival in melanoma patients and overexpression of ULK1 in melanoma cells enhances IFNg-induced expression of immunosuppressive genes, with minimal effects on the expression of immunostimulatory genes. In contrast, genetic or pharmacological inhibition of ULK1 reduces expression of IFNg-induced immunosuppressive genes. ULK1 binds IRF1 in the nuclear compartment of melanoma cells, controlling its binding to the PD-L1 promoter region. Additionally, pharmacological inhibition of ULK1 in combination with anti-PD-1 therapy further reduces melanoma tumor growth and enhances anti-tumor immune responses in vivo. Our data suggest that targeting ULK1 represses IFNg-dependent immunosuppression. These findings support the combination of ULK1 drug-targeted inhibition with ICIs for the treatment of melanoma patients to improve response rates and patient outcomes.

Cyclic-Di-Nucleotides Trigger ULK1 (ATG1) Phosphorylation of STING to Prevent Sustained Innate Immune Signaling

Project description:Activation of the STING (Stimulator of Interferon Genes) pathway by microbial or self-DNA, as well as cyclic di nucleotides (CDN), results in the induction of numerous genes that suppress pathogen replication and facilitate adaptive immunity. However, sustained gene transcription is rigidly prevented to avoid lethal STING-dependent pro-inflammatory disease by mechanisms that remain unknown. We demonstrate here that after autophagy-dependent STING delivery of TBK1 (TANK-binding kinase 1) to endosomal/lysosomal compartments and activation of transcription factors IRF3 (interferon regulatory factors 3) and NF-κB (nuclear factor kappa beta), that STING is subsequently phosphorylated by serine/threonine UNC-51-like kinase (ULK1/ATG1) and IRF3 function is suppressed. ULK1 activation occurred following disassociation from its repressor adenine monophosphate activated protein kinase (AMPK), and was elicited by CDN’S generated by the cGAMP synthase, cGAS. Thus, while CDN’s may initially facilitate STING function, they subsequently trigger negative-feedback control of STING activity, thus preventing the persistent transcription of innate immune genes.

IFN-γ-inducible antiviral responses require ULK1-mediated activation of MLK3 and ERK5.

Project description:It is well established that activation of the transcription factor signal transducer and activator of transcription 1 (STAT1) is required for the interferon-γ (IFN-γ)-mediated antiviral response. Here, we found that IFN-γ receptor stimulation also activated Unc-51-like kinase 1 (ULK1), an initiator of Beclin-1-mediated autophagy. Furthermore, the interaction between ULK1 and the mitogen-activated protein kinase kinase kinase MLK3 (mixed lineage kinase 3) was necessary for MLK3 phosphorylation and downstream activation of the kinase ERK5. This autophagy-independent activity of ULK1 promoted the transcription of key antiviral IFN-stimulated genes (ISGs) and was essential for IFN-γ-dependent antiviral effects. These findings define a previously unknown IFN-γ pathway that appears to be a key element of the antiviral response.

Inhibition of the autophagic protein ULK1 attenuates axonal degeneration in vitro and in vivo and modulates differential splicing

Project description:Several traumatic and neurodegenerative disorders of the CNS show axonal degeneration as a key and early pathological feature. Following a focal axonal lesion, an extended axonal disintegration by acute axonal degeneration (AAD) occurs within several hours. During AAD, activation of autophagic proteins including Unc-51 like autophagy activating kinase 1 (ULK1) has been demonstrated, but its role is incompletely understood. Here, we overexpressed a dominant negative of ULK1 (ULK1.DN) in primary rat cortical neurons in vitro and in the spinal cord (SC) and optic nerve (ON) in vivo. We found a significant inhibitory effect on autophagy in vitro and in vivo. While no effect on cell survival could be observed, ULK1.DN attenuated AAD after axotomy in microfluidic chambers in vitro. Models of SC injury and ON crush in vivo confirmed an attenuation of axonal degeneration by ULK1.DN. In a translational approach, we employed the selective ULK1 inhibitor SBI-0206965 (SBI) and found an attenuation of AAD after ON crush in vivo mediated by a reduction of autophagy by SBI. Quantitative proteomic profiling after ULK1.DN overexpression in vitro revealed a regulation of proteins associated with translation and splicing. A differential exon expression analysis identified the genes kinesin family member 1B (Kif1b), DNA damage inducible transcript 3 (Ddit3) and WD repeat domain 6 (Wdr6) as targets of ULK1.DN and potential mediators of its degeneration-attenuating effect. These findings reveal ULK1 as an important mediator of axonal degeneration and elucidate its function in splicing, defining it as a putative therapeutic target.

Fumarate hydratase orchestrates hepatic steatosis via ULK1 mediated lipophagy

Project description:Hepatic lipid homeostasis is coordinated by various metabolic pathways, such as lipogenesis, lipid uptake, storage, and oxidation. However, the underlying mechanism that orchestrates metabolic crosstalk remains unclarified. Herein, we demonstrated that fumarate hydratase (FH) functioned as an indispensable adaptor governing mitochondria metabolism and lipid droplets (LDs) degradation. Hepatic FH overexpression prevented hepatic steatosis in normal mice and ob/ob mice without interfering mitochondrial lipid oxidation and lipogenesis. Strikingly, we found that FH selectively activated lipophagy-mediated LDs lipidolysis. Mechanistically, FH interacted with ULK1 and stabilized ULK1 through preventing its ubiquitination and degradation, resulting in lipophagy activation and the elimination of hepatic lipid accumulation. Meanwhile, hepatic ULK1 deficiency abrogated the protective effects in FH-overexpressing mice. Also, we clarified that the interaction between FH and ULK1 occurred in cytoplasm, but not in mitochondria. Cytoplasmic FH was sensitive to lipids and downregulated without affecting mitochondrial FH in vivo. Moreover, the FH-ULK1 axis was identified closely associated with hepatic steatosis in human patients. Taken together, our research demonstrates a “two-side” insight of FH on hepatic lipid metabolism and provides a promising strategy for fatty liver treatment.
