Cytoplasmic proteotoxicity regulates HRI-dependent phosphorylation of eIF2a via the Hsp70-Bag3 module.

ABSTRACT: The major heat shock protein Hsp70 has been shown to form a complex with a scaffold protein Bag3, linking it to multiple signaling pathways. Via these interactions, the Hsp70-Bag3 module functions as a proteotoxicity sensor that controls cell signaling. Here, as a tool to identify signaling pathways regulated by this complex, we utilized JG-98, an allosteric inhibitor of Hsp70 that blocks its interaction with Bag3. Gene expression profiling followed by the pathway analysis indicated that a set of signaling pathways including the unfolded protein response (UPR) was activated by JG-98. Surprisingly, only the translation initiation factor eIF2a-associated branch of the UPR was activated under these conditions, while other UPR branches mediating induction of ER chaperones were not induced, suggesting that the response was not related to ER proteotoxicity and thus to ER-associated kinase PERK1. Indeed, induction of the UPR genes under these conditions was dependent on activation of a distinct cytoplasmic eIF2a kinase, HRI. We demonstrated that the Hsp70-Bag3 complex directly interacted with HRI and regulated phosphorylation of eIF2a upon induction of cytoplasmic proteotoxicity. Therefore, we uncovered a novel signaling response, which regulates cell death upon the buildup of abnormal protein species in cytoplasm via an Hsp70-Bag3-HRI-eIF2a axis.

Effect of the Hsp70 inhibitor JG-98 on gene expression in MCF7 cells

Project description:Hsp70 inhibition affects many signaling pathways. We established how these effects are translated into changes in gene expression. Hsp70 is a promising anti-cancer target, and several inhibitors of Hsp70 have been recently developed. Interest to Hsp70 inhibitors as drug prototypes is, however, somewhat hampered by potential similarity of their physiological effects to effects of already well-developed Hsp90 inhibitors. JG-98 series of inhibitors is unique in its ability to target an allosteric site in the ATPase domain of Hsp70, which disrupts its interaction with a co-chaperone Bag3 and affects a variety of signaling pathways important for cancer development and survival. Here, we used the Broad Institute Connectivity Map platform to evaluate physiological effects of JG-98, and found that these effects are dissimilar from effects of Hsp90 inhibitors, thus justifying further development of this compound series. Further, using gene expression data and ActivSignal IPAD platform, we identified pathways modulated by JG-98. Some of these pathways were affected by JG-98 in Bag3-dependent and some pathways in Bag3-independent manner, indicating multiple mechanisms of JG-98 action. Using pooled shRNA genetic screen, we established gene sets that modulate the response of cancer cells to JG-98. Based on genetic and gene expression information, we developed approaches to predict potent combinations of JG-98 with known drugs. These predictions were validated by demonstrating that proteasome, RNApol II, Akt and RTK inhibitors synergize with anti-cancer effects of JG-98. Overall, in this study we analyze unique effects of Hsp70 inhibitors of JG-98 series on cell physiology and define potential drug combinations for clinical use of these inhibitors.

Eukaryotic translation initiation factor 2A protects pancreatic beta cells during endoplasmic reticulum stress while rescuing translation inhibition

Project description:Endoplasmic reticulum (ER) stress-induced unfolded protein response (UPR) helps decide b cell survival in diabetes. The alternative eukaryotic initiation factor 2A (EIF2A) has been proposed to mediate EIF2S1-independent translation during cellular stress and viral infection, but its role in b cells is unknown. EIF2A abundance is high in human and mouse islets relative to other tissues, and both thapsigargin and palmitate significantly increased EIF2A mRNA and EIF2A protein levels in MIN6 cells, mouse islets and human islets. Knockdowns of EIF2A, the related factor EIF2D, or both EIF2A and EIF2D, were not sufficient to cause apoptosis. On the other hand, transient or stable EIF2A over-expression protected MIN6 cells, primary mouse islets, and human islets from ER stress-induced, caspase-3-dependent apoptosis. Mechanistically, EIF2A overexpression decreased ERN1 (also known as IRE1a) expression in thapsigargin-treated MIN6 cells or human islets. In vivo, b cell specific EIF2A viral overexpression reduced ER stress, improved insulin signaling, and abrogated hyperglycemia in Ins2Akita/WT mice. EIF2A overexpression significantly increased expression of genes involved protein translation and reduced expression of pro-apoptotic genes (e.g. ALDH1A3). Remarkably, the decrease in global protein synthesis during UPR was prevented by EIF2A, despite ER stress-induced EIF2S1 phosphorylation. The protective effects of EIF2A were additive to those of ISRIB, a drug that counteracts the effects of EIF2S1 phosphorylation. Cells overexpressing EIF2A showed higher expression of translation factor EIF2B5, which may contribute to the lack of translational inhibition in these cells. We conclude that EIF2A is a novel target for b cell protection and the circumvention of EIF2S1-mediated translational repression.

Ribosome profiling analysis of GADD34 null cells

Project description:Accumulation of misfolded proteins in the endoplasmic reticulum (ER) triggers the unfolded protein response (UPR), which results in the increased phosphorylation of the eukaryotic initiation factor, eIF2a, and widespread translational repression. Protein synthesis is subsequently restored following the stress-induced transcriptional upregulation of GADD34 (growth arrest and DNA damage transcript 34) protein, a regulator of an eIF2a phosphatase. Genome-wide ribosome foot-printing in WT and GADD34-/- MEFs established that GADD34 mRNA is translated in unstressed cells and identified numerous mRNAs, whose translation was dependent on GADD34 even in the absence of ER stress. Following UPR activation, temporal analyses showed that the translational profile in GADD34-/- MEFs was stalled, displaying a pattern that mirrors the early response to UPR in WT MEFs. Basal GADD34 expression is also required for de-repression of translation and displacement of ER-bound polysomes that occur in early UPR. Thus, the overall UPR response is delayed in the GADD34-/- MEFs, gradually recovering as CReP expression increased. These studies reveal a critical role for basal GADD34 in the propagation of UPR signals in MEFs and mice and suggest that delayed UPR signaling protects GADD34-/- mice from tunicamycin-induced renal toxicity.

Transcription profiling of human cytokine induced A172 glioblastoma cells treated with erstressin and nostressin

Project description:The unfolded protein response (UPR), a signaling pathway triggered by endoplasmic reticulum (ER) stress, is induced by a range of environmental factors. Here we describe the identification and characterization of a synthetic small molecule, erstressin, which activates the UPR. Erstressin induced rapid phosphorylation of PERK and eIF2a and the alternative splicing of XBP-1, hallmark initiating events of the UPR. Further, erstressin activated the transcription of multiple genes involved in the UPR. Coincident with these effects, erstressin also downregulated the transcription of the inflammation-associated enzyme inducible nitric oxide synthase (iNOS) in cytokine-activated cells. A close analog of erstressin that failed to induce the UPR did not attenuate expression of iNOS, suggesting that both biological effects of erstressin were mediated by a common mechanism. Further, the structurally-distinct ER stressor thapsigargin also inhibited iNOS expression. Together these chemical genetic studies reveal an unanticipated anti-inflammatory role for the UPR. Experiment Overall Design: We utilized microarrays to understand the global effect of a novel compund, erstressin, on cytokine stimulated cells over time.

HRD1-mediated METTL14 degradation regulates m6A mRNA modification to suppress ER proteotoxic liver disease

Project description:Accumulation of unfolded or misfolded proteins in the endoplasmic reticulum (ER) lumen triggers unfolded protein response (UPR) for stress adaptation, the failure of which induces cell apoptosis and tissue/organ damage. The molecular switches underlying how the UPR selects for stress adaptation over apoptosis remain unknown. Here we discovered that accumulation of unfolded/misfolded proteins selectively induces N6-adenosine-methyltransferase-14 (METTL14) expression. METTL14 promotes CHOP mRNA decay through its 3’UTR N6-adenosine methylation (m6A) to inhibit its downstream pro-apoptotic target genes expression. UPR induces METTL14 expression through competing the HRD1-ERAD machinery to block METTL14 ubiquitination and degradation. Therefore, mice with liver-specific METTL14 deletion are highly susceptible to both acute pharmacological and alpha-1 antitrypsin (AAT) deficiency-induced ER proteotoxic stress and liver injury. Further hepatic CHOP deletion protects METTL14 knockout mice from ER stress-induced liver damage. Our study reveals a crosstalk between ER stress and mRNA m6A pathways, the ERm6A pathway, for ER stress adaptation to proteotoxicity.
