Project description:Neuroinflammatory processes are a prominent contributor to the pathology of Parkinson’s disease (PD), characterized by the progressive loss of dopaminergic neurons in the substantia nigra (SN) and deposits of α-synuclein aggregates. MLKL-mediated cell necroptosis might occur in the onset of PD and lead to neuronal dopaminergic degeneration. However, the link between α-synuclein, neuroinflammatory processes, and neurodegeneration in PD remains unclear. Here, our in vitro study indicated that inhibition of MLKL exerted a protective effect against 6-OHDA- and TNF-α-induced neuronal cell death. Furthermore, we created a mouse model (Tg-Mlkl-/-) with typical progressive Parkinson traits by crossbreeding SNCA A53T transgenic mice with MLKL knockout mice. Tg-Mlkl-/ mice displayed dramatically improved motor symptoms and reduced hyperphosphorylated α-synuclein expression. More data suggested that MLKL deficiency protected dopaminergic neurons, blocked neuronal cell death, and attenuated neuroinflammation by inhibiting the activation of the microglia and astrocytes. Single-cell RNA-seq analysis revealed reduced microglial cells and damped neuron death in the SN of the Tg-Mlkl-/- mice. Subcluster analysis identified a unique cell type-specific transcriptome profiling in the MLKL deficiency mice. Thus, MLKL represents a critical therapeutic target for reducing neuroinflammation and preventing dopaminergic neuron degeneration.

Project description:Ptpn6 is a cytoplasmic phosphatase that functions to prevent autoimmune disease and IL-1R-dependent caspase-1-independent inflammatory disease. Conditional deletion of Ptpn6 in neutrophils (Ptpn6∆PMN) is sufficient to initiate IL-1R-dependent cutaneous inflammatory disease, but the source of IL-1 and the mechanisms behind IL-1 release remain unclear. Here, we investigated the mechanisms controlling IL-1α/β release from neutrophils by inhibiting caspase-8-dependent apoptosis and Ripk1/Ripk3/Mlkl-regulated necroptosis. Loss of Ripk1 accelerated disease onset, whereas combined deletion of caspase-8 and either Ripk3 or Mlkl strongly protected Ptpn6∆PMN mice. Ptpn6∆PMN neutrophils displayed increased p38-dependent Ripk1-independent IL-1 and TNF production, and were prone to cell death. Together, these data emphasize dual functions for Ptpn6 in the negative regulation of p38 MAP kinase activation to control TNF and IL-1α/β transcription, and in maintaining Ripk1 function to prevent caspase-8- and Ripk3/Mlkl-dependent cell death and concomitant IL-1α/β release.

Project description:TNF alpha is one of the inflammatory mediator and induce genes mainly by transcriptional factor, p65, in endothelial cells. This time, we performed a time course study to detect the change of localization of p65 and Pol II. To identify p65 and Pol II binding sites, we used chromatin immunoprecipitation with deep sequencing (ChIP-seq) of HUVECs treated with or without TNF alpha for 30 mins. Cells were starved before stimulation longer than 16 hours. HUVECs were used within the first 6 passages. For crosslinking, 10 mM of EGS in 50% glacial acetic acid was used for 45 min, followed by 20 min of 1% paraformaldehyde treatmet was used.

Project description:Caspase-8 is a protease with both pro-death and pro-survival functions: it is required for apoptosis induced by death receptors such as TNFR1 (tumour necrosis factor receptor 1), and it has a critical role in suppressing necroptosis mediated by the kinase RIPK3 (receptor interacting protein kinase 3) and the pseudokinase MLKL (mixed lineage kinase-like). Mice lacking caspase-8 display MLKL-dependent embryonic lethality, as do mice expressing catalytically inactive caspase-8 mutant C362A. However, Casp8C362A/C362A Mlkl-/- mice die in the perinatal period, whereas Casp8-/- Mlkl-/- mice are viable, indicating that inactive caspase-8 also has a pro-death scaffolding function. Here we show that caspase-8 C362A triggers ASC speck formation and caspase-1-dependent pyroptosis in MLKL-deficient intestinal epithelial cells (IECs) around embryonic day 18. Pyroptosis contributed to the perinatal lethal phenotype because a number of Casp8 C362A/C362A Mlkl-/- Casp1-/- mice survived beyond weaning. Transfection studies suggested inactive caspase-8 adopts a distinct conformation to wild-type caspase-8, enabling it to engage the caspase-1 adaptor ASC. Wild-type caspase-8 was found in the Triton X-100 soluble fraction, whereas wild-type caspase-8 inhibited with the pan-caspase inhibitor emricasan, or inactive caspase-8 mutant C362A, were detected in the insoluble fraction. Moreover, inhibited or inactive caspase-8 shifted ASC into the insoluble fraction. Perinatal lethality was recapitulated when expression of caspase-8 C362A was restricted to IECs, but intriguingly, only in the absence of MLKL. Hence, unanticipated plasticity in death pathways is revealed such that IECs can undergo caspase-1-dependent death when caspase-8-dependent apoptosis and MLKL-dependent necroptosis are inhibited.

Project description:OBJECTIVES: To detect the expression levels of MLKL and p-MLKL, and explore its potential roles in inflammatory cell infiltration, angiogenesis, and bone destruction, in human and mouse periapical lesions. METHODS: Forty-six human periapical tissues, including periapical granulomas (PGs, n =26), radicular cysts (RCs, n =20), and eight healthy control tissues were collected. Samples were fixed and analyzed by HE staining, RNA-Seq, western blot, and immunohistochemical staining. A periapical lesion mouse model was induced by pulp exposure in the first lower molars of 15 C57BL/6J mice. After lesion induction, the mice were sacrificed on days 0, 21, and 35. Mandibles were harvested for microcomputed tomography scanning, histologic observation, immunohistochemistry, enzyme histochemistry, and double immunofluorescence analysis. Double immunofluorescence was utilized to assess the colocalization of phosphorylated MLKL (p-MLKL) with CD34, matrix metalloproteinase-9 (MMP-9), and Cathepsin K (CTSK) in human and mouse periapical lesions. RESULTS: RNA-Seq analysis showed that, in comparison with healthy gingiva tissues, MLKL was more significantly upregulated in periapical lesions (P-value < 0.05). Immunohistochemistry staining showed that, MLKL and p-MLKL were significantly overexpressed in the RC and PG groups compared with the control group (P-value < 0.05). However, the difference between the RC and PG groups was insignificant (P-value > 0.05). p-MLKL-positive cells were mainly lymphocytes, epithelial cells, and endothelial cells around the vascular wall. In mouse periapical lesions, the expression levels of p-MLKL were positively correlated with the bone defect area and tartrate-resistant acid phosphatase-positive (TRAP+) cell amounts (R2=0.4108, P-value < 0.05; R2=0.5668, P-value < 0.05, respectively). The double-labeling analysis showed that p-MLKL colocalized with CD34 and MMP-9 in human samples, and with CTSK adjacent to the bone in mouse periapical lesions. CONCLUSION: MLKL and p-MLKL were overexpressed in human periapical lesions. p-MLKL exhibited a close relationship with angiogenesis and alveolar bone resorption.

Project description:Mixed lineage kinase domain-like (MLKL) is the executioner in the caspase 8-independent form of programmed cell death called necroptosis. Once Receptor Interacting serine/threonine Protein Kinase 3 (RIPK3) is activated by upstream cell death signals, it phosphorylates MLKL and triggers the oligomerization and membrane translocation required for MLKL induced membrane disruption. Besides phosphorylation, MLKL also undergoes ubiquitylation during the early stages of necroptosis, yet neither the mechanism nor the significance of this event has been demonstrated. Here we show that necroptosis-specific, multi-mono-ubiquitylation of MLKL occurs on biological membranes, and requires its activation and oligomerisation. Inactive MLKL mutants recruited to membranes during necroptosis are ubiquitylated but this results in their proteasome and lysosome dependent turnover. We identified several ubiquitylated lysines however mutation of these did not affect MLKL ubiquitylation in response to a necroptotic stimulus.

Project description:Purpose: Necroptosis as been implicated in various deseases. The goal of this study is to invastigate the impact of RIPK3 and MLKL in the lipid metabolism of adipocytes. Methods: 3T3-L1 preadipocytes invalidated or not for RIPK3 or MLKL were exposed differenciated into mature adipocytes and the mRNA profiles of wild type (WT), RIPK3-/- knockout (RIPK3-KO) or MLKL-/- knockout 3T3-L1 cells control (J0) or differenciated into mature adipocytes (J7) were generated by deep sequencing, in 3 copies, using Illumina NOVAseq 6000 plateform. Differential expression analysis between two conditions/groups (five biological replicates per condition) was performed using DESeq2 R package. Genes with an adjusted P value < 0.05 found by DESeq2 were assigned as differentially expressed. qRT–PCR validation was performed using SYBR Green assays Results: The DEGs were clustered using a hierarchical clustering algorithm, and Kyoto Encyclopedia of Genes and Genomes (KEGG) pathway enrichment analysis unveiled a clear reduction in the expression of genes involved in the early or late stages of adipogenesis in MLKL-KO cells Conclusions: Taken together, these data suggest that Mlkl but not Ripk3 deficiency impaired adipogenesis of 3T3-L1 cells by reducing the expression of pro-adipogenic factors and genes involved in fatty acid metabolism.

Project description:Caspase-8 is a protease with both pro-death and pro-survival functions: it is required for apoptosis induced by death receptors such as TNFR1 (tumor necrosis factor receptor 1) 1, and it has a critical role in suppressing necroptosis mediated by the kinase RIPK3 (receptor interacting protein kinase 3) and the pseudokinase MLKL (mixed lineage kinase-like) 2-4. Mice lacking caspase-8 display MLKL-dependent embryonic lethality 4, as do mice expressing catalytically inactive caspase-8 mutant C362A. However, Casp8C362A/C362A Mlkl-/- mice die in the perinatal period, whereas Casp8-/- Mlkl-/- mice are viable 4, indicating that inactive caspase-8 also has a pro-death scaffolding function. Here we show that inactive caspase-8 activates pyroptosis in MLKL-deficient intestinal epithelial cells around embryonic day 18, triggering the formation of ASC specks. Accordingly, intestinal atrophy and perinatal lethality in Casp8C362A/C362A Mlkl-/- mice was prevented by loss of caspase-1. In transfection studies, inactive caspase-8 mutants C362A or C362S were found in both the triton X-100 insoluble and soluble fractions, whereas wild-type caspase-8 existed only in the soluble fraction. Moreover, inactive caspase-8 shifted co-transfected ASC into the insoluble fraction, whereas wild-type caspase-8 did not. Thus, a defense mechanism is revealed that would allow intestinal epithelial cell death in the face of pathogens expressing virulence factors to inhibit caspase-8-dependent apoptosis and necroptosis.
