Canonical Wnt Induces Focal Adhesion and Integrin Beta-1 Endocytosis

ABSTRACT: Activation of the Wnt pathway is at the core of many human cancers. During canonical Wnt signaling, the Lrp6 and Frizzled receptors bind to the Wnt growth factor, which leads to the complex being endocytosed. Glycogen Synthase Kinase 3 (GSK3), Dishevelled (Dvl), and Axin are sequestered inside the intraluminal vesicles of late endosomes, known as multivesicular bodies (MVBs). Here we present experiments showing that Wnt causes the endocytosis of focal adhesion (FA) proteins and depletion of Integrin β 1 (ITGβ1) from the cell surface. FAs and integrins provide link the cytoskeleton to the extracellular matrix. Wnt-induced macropinocytosis of the plasma membrane caused ITGβ1 depletion and was accompanied by striking changes in the actin cytoskeleton. In situ protease protection assays in cultured cells showed that ITGβ1 was sequestered within membrane-bounded organelles that corresponded to Wnt-induced MVBs containing GSK3 and focal adhesion-associated proteins. An in vivo model using Xenopus embryos dorsalized by Wnt8 mRNA showed that ITGβ1 depletion decreased Wnt signaling. The cross-talk between Wnt signaling, membrane trafficking, and focal adhesions should be relevant to human cancer and cell biology.

Project description:Metabolic Dysfunction Associated Steatohepatitis (MASH) is characterized by excess circulating toxic lipids, hepatic steatosis, and liver inflammation. Monocyte adhesion to the liver sinusoidal endothelial cells (LSEC) and transendothelial migration (TEM) are crucial in the inflammatory process. LSEC under lipotoxic stress develops a pro-inflammatory phenotype known as endotheliopathy. However, the mediators of endotheliopathy remain obscure. Primary mouse LSEC isolated from C57BL/6J mice on chow or MASH-inducing diets rich in fat, fructose, and cholesterol (FFC) were subjected to multi-omics profiling. Mice with established MASH, due to a choline-deficient high-fat diet (CDHFD) or FFC diet, were treated with two structurally distinct GSK3 inhibitors [LY2090314, elraglusib (9-ING-41)]. Integrated pathway analysis of mouse LSEC proteome and transcriptome indicates that leukocyte TEM and focal adhesion are major pathways altered in MASH. Kinome profiling of the LSEC phospho-proteome identified GSK3β as the major kinase hub in MASH. GSK3β activating phosphorylation was increased in primary human LSEC treated with the toxic lipid palmitate and in human MASH. Palmitate upregulated the expression of C-X-C motif chemokine ligand 2, intracellular adhesion molecule 1, and phosphorylated focal adhesion kinase, via a GSK3-dependant mechanism. Congruently, the adhesive and transendothelial migratory capacities of primary human neutrophils and THP-1 monocytes through LSEC monolayer under lipotoxic stress were reduced by GSK3 inhibition. Treatment with the GSK3 inhibitors LY2090314 and elraglusib ameliorated liver inflammation, injury, and fibrosis in FFC and CDHFD-fed mice, respectively. Immunophenotyping of intrahepatic leukocytes from CDHFD-fed mice treated with elraglusib using cytometry by the time of flight showed reduced proinflammatory monocyte-derived macrophages and monocyte-derived dendritic cells infiltration.GSK3 inhibition attenuates lipotoxicity-induced LSEC endotheliopathy and may serve as a potential therapeutic strategy in human MASH.
