Hematopoietic Stem Cells Preferentially Traffic Misfolded Proteins to Aggresomes and Depend on Aggrephagy to Maintain Protein Homeostasis

ABSTRACT: Hematopoietic stem cells (HSCs) regenerate blood cells throughout life. To preserve their fitness, HSCs are particularly dependent on maintaining protein homeostasis (proteostasis). However, how HSCs purge misfolded proteins is unknown. Here we show that in contrast to most cells that primarily utilize the proteasome to degrade misfolded proteins, HSCs preferentially traffic misfolded proteins to aggresomes in a Bag3-dependent manner, and depend on aggrephagy, a selective form of autophagy, to maintain proteostasis in vivo. When autophagy is disabled, HSCs compensate by increasing proteasome activity, but proteostasis is ultimately disrupted as protein aggregates accumulate and HSC function is impaired. Bag3-deficiency blunts aggresome formation in HSCs, resulting in protein aggregate accumulation, myeloid-biased differentiation, and diminished self-renewal activity. Furthermore, HSC aging is associated with a severe loss of aggresomes and reduced autophagic flux. Protein degradation pathways are thus specifically configured in young adult HSCs to preserve proteostasis and fitness, but become dysregulated during aging.

Hsf1 promotes hematopoietic stem cell fitness and proteostasis in response to ex vivo culture stress and aging II

Project description:Maintaining proteostasis is key to resisting stress and to promoting healthy aging. Proteostasis is necessary to preserve stem cell function, but little is known about the mechanisms that regulate proteostasis during stress in stem cells, and whether disruptions in proteostasis contribute stem cell aging is largely unexplored. We determined that ex vivo cultured mouse and human hematopoietic stem cells (HSCs) rapidly increase protein synthesis. This challenge to HSC proteostasis was associated with nuclear accumulation of Hsf1, and deletion of Hsf1 impaired HSC maintenance ex vivo. Strikingly, supplementing cultures with small molecules that enhance Hsf1 activation partially suppressed protein synthesis, rebalanced proteostasis, and supported retention of HSC serial reconstituting activity. Although Hsf1 was dispensable for young adult HSCs in vivo, Hsf1 deficiency increased protein synthesis and impaired the reconstituting activity of middle-aged HSCs. Hsf1 thus promotes proteostasis and the regenerative activity of HSCs in response to culture stress and aging.

Cytosolic splice isoform of Hsp70 nucleotide exchange factor Fes1 is required for the degradation of misfolded proteins in yeast

Project description:Cells maintain proteostasis by selectively recognizing and targeting misfolded proteins for degradation. In Saccharomyces cerevisiae, the Hsp70 nucleotide exchange factor Fes1 is essential for the degradation of chaperone-associated misfolded proteins by the ubiquitin-proteasome system. Here we show that the FES1 transcript undergoes unique 3' alternative splicing that results in two equally active isoforms with alternative C-termini, Fes1L and Fes1S. Fes1L is actively targeted to the nucleus and represents the first identified nuclear Hsp70 nucleotide exchange factor. In contrast, Fes1S localizes to the cytosol and is essential to maintain proteostasis. In the absence of Fes1S, the heat-shock response is constitutively induced at normally non-stressful conditions. Moreover, cells display severe growth defects when elevated temperatures, amino acid analogues or the ectopic expression of misfolded proteins, induce protein misfolding. Importantly, misfolded proteins are not targeted for degradation by the ubiquitin-proteasome system. These observations support the notion that cytosolic Fes1S maintains proteostasis by supporting the removal of toxic misfolded proteins by proteasomal degradation. This study provides key findings for the understanding of the organization of protein quality control mechanisms in the cytosol and nucleus. 4 strains (WT, fes1Î, fes1ÎS, fes1ÎL) were sequenced in triplicates from independent RNA isolations.

Modulation of protease expression by PITX transcription factors regulates protein quality control during aging

Project description:Protein quality control is important for healthy aging and is dysregulated in several age-related diseases. The autophagy-lysosome and ubiquitin-proteasome systems are key for proteostasis but it remains largely unknown whether other proteolytic systems maintain protein quality control during aging. Here, we find that the expression of proteolytic enzymes (proteases/peptidases) distinct from the autophagy-lysosome and ubiquitin-proteasome systems declines during skeletal muscle aging in Drosophila. Age-dependent downregulation of proteases undermines proteostasis, as demonstrated by the increase in detergent-insoluble poly-ubiquitinated proteins and pathogenic huntingtin-polyQ in response to protease RNAi. Transcriptomic analysis identifies Ptx1, homologous to human PITX1/2/3, as a transcriptional regulator of proteases. Specifically, RNAi for Ptx1 increases the expression of age-downregulated proteases and improves protein quality. Moreover, muscle-specific expression of Ptx1 RNAi extends lifespan. These findings indicate that protein quality control is ensured during aging by autophagy/proteasome-independent proteases that degrade misfolded and aggregation-prone proteins and by their transcriptional modulator Ptx1.

The effects of tRNA editing deficiency on hematopoietic stem cells

Project description:To test how translational control of proteome quality affects stem cell function, we examined Aarssti/sti mice that harbor a mutation in the alanyl-tRNA synthetase, which causes a tRNA editing defect that increases amino acid misincorporation errors during translation. Aarssti/sti mice exhibited reduced HSC numbers, increased HSC proliferation and significantly diminished HSC serial reconstituting activity in vivo, but did not exhibit defects within restricted progenitors. Modest accumulation of misfolded proteins partially overwhelmed the capacity of the proteasome within HSCs, which was associated with stabilization and increased abundance of c-Myc. Conditional deletion of a single copy of Myc partially rescued serial reconstitution defects in Aarssti/sti HSCs. HSCs are thus dependent on the maintenance of proteome quality and homeostasis to preserve their self-renewal activity in vivo.

Anakinra restores cellular proteostasis by coupling mitochondrial redox balance to autophagy

Project description:Autophagy selectively degrades aggregation-prone misfolded proteins caused by defective cellular proteostasis. However, the complexity of autophagy may prevent the full appreciation of how its modulation could be used as a therapeutic strategy in disease management. Here we define a molecular pathway through which recombinant interleukin-1 receptor antagonist (IL-1Ra, anakinra) affects cellular proteostasis independently from the IL-1 receptor (IL-1R1). Anakinra promoted H2O2-driven autophagy through a xenobiotic sensing pathway involving the aryl hydrocarbon receptor that, activated through the indoleamine 2,3-dioxygenase 1-kynurenine pathway, transcriptionally activates NADPH Oxidase 4 independent of the IL-1R1. By coupling the mitochondrial redox balance to autophagy, anakinra improved the dysregulated proteostasis network in murine and human cystic fibrosis. We anticipate that anakinra may represent a therapeutic option in addition to its IL-1R1 dependent anti-inflammatory properties by acting at the intersection of mitochondrial oxidative stress and autophagy with the capacity to restore conditions in which defective proteostasis leads to human disease.

Temporal control of acute protein aggregate turnover by UBE3C and NRF1-dependent proteasomal pathways

Project description:A hallmark of neurodegenerative diseases such as Parkinson’s Disease is the progressive loss of proteostasis, leading to the conversion of misfolded proteins into aggregates and subsequent cytotoxicity. To combat this toxicity, cells have evolved degradation pathways (ubiquitin-proteasome system and autophagy) that detect and degrade misfolded proteins. Here, we find that aggregation burden dictates the activation of proteasome-dependent quality control pathways. Initial misfolded proteins, enriched in oligomers, utilize UBE3C-dependent proteasomal degradation, while higher aggregation levels, enriched in larger insoluble structures, activate the NRF1 transcription factor to increase proteasome subunit transcription, and subsequent degradation capacity of cells. The role of UBE3C and NRF1 in aggregation clearance may provide therapeutic targets aimed to preventing neurodegenerative disease.

Retinoid X receptor promotes hematopoietic stem cell fitness and quiescence and preserves hematopoietic homesotasis [Bulk]

Project description:Hematopoietic stem cells (HSCs) balance self-renewal and differentiation to maintain hematopoietic fitness throughout life. In steady-state conditions, HSC exhaustion is prevented by the maintenance of most HSCs in a quiescent state, with cells entering the cell cycle only occasionally. HSC quiescence is regulated by retinoid and fatty-acid ligands of transcriptional factors of the nuclear retinoid X receptor (RXR) family. Here, we show that dual deficiency for hematopoietic RXRa and RXRb induces HSC exhaustion, myeloid cell/megakaryocyte differentiation, and myeloproliferative-like disease. RXRa and RXRb maintain HSC quiescence, survival, and chromatin compaction; moreover, transcriptome changes in RXRa;RXRb-deficient HSCs include premature acquisition of an aging-like HSC signature, MYC pathway upregulation, and RNA intron retention. Fitness loss and associated RNA transcriptome and splicing alterations in RXRa;RXRb-deficient HSCs are prevented by Myc haploinsufficiency. Our study reveals the critical importance of RXRs for the maintenance of HSC fitness and their protection from premature aging.
