Project description:The unfolded protein response (UPR) is associated with the metabolic function of the liver, yet it is not well understood how endoplasmic reticulum (ER) disturbance might influence metabolic homeostasis. Here, we describe the physiological function of the Cysteine-rich with EGF-like domains 2 (Creld2), which has been previously characterized as a downstream target of the ER-stress signal transducer Atf6. Creld2 enhances protein folding and degradation through its interaction with proteins involved in UPR, thereby, promoting tolerance of chronic stress and recovery from acute stress. Using a genetic knockout model, we show that Creld2-deficiency leads to a dysregulated UPR, and causes the development of hepatic steatosis in male mice, while females are protected. We observed this sex dimorphism also in humans with fatty liver disease, with only males showing an accumulation of CRELD2 protein in the liver. These results reveal a Creld2 function at the intersection between UPR and metabolic homeostasis and suggest a mechanism in which chronic ER stress underlies fatty liver disease in males.

Project description:The Cytoplasmic Polyadenylation Element Binding (CPEB)-family of RNA-binding proteins regulates pre-mRNA processing and translation of CPE-containing mRNAs in early embryonic development and synaptic activity. However, the specific functions of each CPEB in the adult organism are poorly understood. Here we show that CPEB4 is required to suppress high fat diet- and aging-induced endoplasmic reticulum (ER) stress, and its subsequent hepatic steatosis. Stress-activated expression of CPEB4 in the liver is controlled through a double layer of regulation. First, Cpeb4 is transcriptionally regulated by the circadian clock and then, its mRNA translation is regulated by the Unfolded Protein Response (UPR) through the upstream Open Reading Frames (uORFs) present in its 5’ UTR. Thus, CPEB4 is synthesized only upon ER-stress but the amplitude of the induction is circadian. In turn, CPEB4 activates a second wave of UPR-translation required to maintain ER and mitochondrial homeostasis. Our results suggest that combined transcriptional and translational regulation of CPEB4 generates a “circadian mediator”, which
coordinates the hepatic UPR activity with periods of high ER protein-folding demand preventing non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD).

Project description:The unfolded protein response (UPR) couples cellular translation rates and gene expression to the protein folding status of the endoplasmic reticulum (ER). Upon activation, the UPR machinery elicits a general suppression of protein synthesis and activation of stress gene expression, which act coordinately to restore protein folding homeostasis. We report here that UPR activation promotes the release of signal sequence-encoding mRNAs from the ER to the cytosol as a mechanism to decrease protein influx into the ER. This release of mRNA begins rapidly, then gradually recovers with ongoing stress. Upon release into the cytosol, these mRNAs have divergent fates: some synthesize full-length proteins, while others are translationally inactive and retain nascent protein chains. Together, these findings identify the dynamic subcellular localization of mRNAs and translation as a regulatory feature of the cellular response to protein folding stress. Cells were treated with a timecourse of Thapsigargin or DTT, then fractionated and analyzed by mRNA-seq or ribosome profiling

Project description:The Mitochondrial Unfolded Protein Response (UPRmt), a mitochondria-originated stress response to altered mitochondrial proteostasis, plays important roles in various pathophysiological processes. In this study, we revealed that the endoplasmic reticulum (ER)-tethered stress sensor CREBH regulates UPRmt to maintain mitochondrial homeostasis and function in the liver. CREBH is enriched in and required for hepatic Mitochondria-Associated Membrane (MAM) expansion induced by energy demands. Under a fasting challenge or during the circadian cycle, CREBH is activated to promote expression of the genes encoding the key enzymes, chaperones, and regulators of UPRmt in the liver. Activated CREBH, cooperating with peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor α (PPARα), activates expression of Activating Transcription Factor (ATF) 5 and ATF4, two major UPRmt transcriptional regulators, independent of the ER-originated UPR (UPRER) pathways. Hepatic CREBH deficiency leads to accumulation of mitochondrial unfolded proteins, decreased mitochondrial membrane potential, and elevated cellular redox state. Dysregulation of mitochondrial function caused by CREBH deficiency coincides with increased hepatic mitochondrial oxidative phosphorylation (OXPHOS) but decreased glycolysis. CREBH knockout mice display defects in fatty acid oxidation and increased reliance on carbohydrate oxidation for energy production. In summary, our studies uncover that hepatic UPRmt is activated through CREBH under physiological challenges, highlighting a molecular link between ER and mitochondria in maintaining mitochondrial proteostasis and energy homeostasis under stress conditions.

Project description:Stress pathways monitor intracellular systems and deploy a range of regulatory mechanisms in response to stress. One of the best-characterized pathways, the unfolded protein response (UPR), is responsible for maintaining endoplasmic reticulum (ER) homeostasis. The highly conserved Ire1 branch regulates hundreds of gene targets by activating a UPR specific transcription factor. To understand how the UPR manages ER stress, a novel genetic approach was applied to reveal how the system corrects disequilibria. The data show that UPR can address a wide range of dysfunctions that is otherwise lethal if not for its intervention. Transcriptional profiling of stress alleviated cells shows that the program can be modulated, not just in signal amplitude, but also through differential target gene expression depending on the stress. The breadth of the functions mitigated by the UPR further supports its role as a major mechanism maintaining systems robustness. Genes expression from early log phase of ALG5, LHS1, and SCJ1 knockout cell and untreated and DTT-treated WT cells. RNA was prepared from independent triplicate samples.

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.
