Project description:RIPK2 mediates inflammatory signaling by the bacteria-sensing receptors NOD1 and NOD2, and inhibition of RIPK2 by kinase inhibitors is an emerging strategy to ameliorate NOD-mediated pathologies. However, the role for RIPK2’s kinase activity remains unclear. Here, we reveal that RIPK2 kinase activity is dispensable for NOD2 inflammatory signaling and show that RIPK2 inhibitors function instead by antagonizing XIAP-binding and XIAP-mediated ubiquitination of RIPK2. We map the XIAP binding site on RIPK2 to the loop between 2 and 3 of the N-lobe of the kinase, which is in close proximity to the ATP-binding pocket. Through characterization of a new series of ATP-competitive RIPK2 inhibitors, we identify the molecular features that determine their inhibition of both the RIPK2-XIAP interaction, and of cellular and in vivo NOD2 signaling. Our study exemplifies how targeting of the ATP-binding pocket in RIPK2 can be exploited to interfere with the RIPK2-XIAP interaction for modulation of NOD signaling.

Project description:Signaling via the intracellular pathogen receptors Nucleotide-binding oligomerization domain-containing proteins NOD1 and NOD2 requires Receptor Interacting Kinase 2 (RIPK2), an adaptor kinase that can be targeted for the treatment of various inflammatory diseases. However, the molecular mechanisms of how RIPK2 contributes to NOD signaling are not completely understood. We generated FLAG-tagged RIPK2 knock-in mice using CRISPR/Cas9 technology to study NOD signaling mechanisms on an endogenous level. Using cells from these mice we were able to generate a detailed map of post-translational modifications on RIPK2 during NOD signaling using mass spectrometry analysis and we identified a new regulatory interface on RIPK2, which dictates the crucial interaction with the E3 ligase XIAP.

Project description:Inflammation is normally a protective response to defend and restore homeostasis; nonresolving inflammation is a major driver of immune disorders. N6-methyladenosine (m6A) is a prevalent mRNA modification that plays a crucial function in multiple biological processes. The effect of m6A on the immune response has recently been reported. However, the effect is unclear, and the results are contradictory. In this study, the expression of total m6A and the methyltransferase METTL3 decreased in LPS-stimulated macrophages. METTL3 knockdown significantly upregulated expression of proinflammatory cytokines, including TNF-α, IL-6 and NO. RNA sequencing analysis showed that the upregulated genes were enriched in inflammation-related signaling pathways and that the NOD-like receptor signaling pathway might be the target molecules of METTL3. METTL3 depletion resulted in upregulation of the NOD1 pathway without impacting NOD2. Moreover, the increase in proinflammatory cytokines induced by METTL3 knockdown was reversed by blocking the NOD1 pathway using the NOD-IN-1 and ML130 specific inhibitors. Mechanistically, METTL3 knockdown promoted the mRNA expression and stability of NOD1 and RIPK2, and the same results were detected in m6A-binding protein YTHDF1- or YTHDF2-silenced cells. All findings suggested that METTL3 depletion inhibits the degradation of NOD1 and RIPK2 mRNA mediated by YTHDF1 and YTHDF2, which upregulate the NOD1 pathway and subsequently promote the LPS-induced inflammatory response in macrophages.

Project description:The possibility of specifying functional hematopoietic stem and progenitor cells (HSPCs) from human pluripotent stem cells (hPSCs) would overcome current limitations related to HSPC transplantation. However, generating hPSC-derived HSPCs has been elusive, necessitating a better understanding of the native developmental mechanisms that trigger HSPC specification. Here, we revealed in vivo an intrinsic inflammatory mechanism triggered by Nod1 that drives early hemogenic endothelium (HE) patterning to specify HSPCs. Our genetic and chemical experiments showed that HSPCs failed to specify in the absence of Nod1 and its downstream kinase Ripk2. Rescue experiments demonstrated that Nod1 and Ripk2 acted through NF-kB, and that small Rho GTPases are at the apex of this mechanism. Manipulation of NOD1 in a human system of hPSCs differentiation towards the definitive hematopoietic lineage indicated functional conservation. This work establishes the RAC1-NOD1-RIPK2-NFkB axis as the earliest inflammatory inductor that intrinsically primes the HE for proper HSPC specification. Manipulation of this pathway could help derive a competent HE amenable to specify functional patient specific HSPCs for the treatment of blood disorders. Keywords: NOD1, RIPK2, NF-kB, RAC1, Rho GTPases, Hematopoietic Stem and Progenitor Cell Specification, Hemogenic Endothelium.

Project description:Extensive structure-activity studies of iE-DAP and MDP have demonstrated their selective activation of NOD1- and NOD2-expressing cells, respectively. Nonetheless, the direct binding of iE-DAP and MDP to NOD1 and NOD2, respectively, as well as other proteins in mammalian cells has not been systematically investigated. To address the direct interaction of iE-DAP and MDP with NOD1 and NOD2 in living cells, we synthesized a series of peptidoglycan metabolite photoaffinity chemical reporters containing a diazirine for photocrosslinking in cells and an alkyne tag for bioorthogonal detection of covalently-labeled proteins. The analysis of these peptidoglycan metabolite photoaffinity reporters demonstrate that iE-DAP and MDP can directly bind to NOD1 and NOD2 in mammalian cells. The crosslinking of these peptidoglycan metabolite photoaffinity reporters only occur with active variants of NOD1 and NOD2. Beyond direct binding to NOD2, the active MDP photoaffinity reporter selectively crosslinked Arf GTPases in NOD2-expressing cells and did so most prominently with GTP-bound Arf6, revealing the Arf proteins as novel direct pattern recognition receptors. Additional labeling and co-precipitation experiments suggest that MDP induces a complex between NOD2 and GTP-Arf6. This study highlights the utility of peptidoglycan metabolite photoaffinity reporters for characterizing their direct binding to intracellular pattern recognition receptors and identifying unpredicted cellular cofactors. The applications of these microbial-specific metabolite reporters should enable the discovery of other receptors, transporters and regulatory enzymes in host cells and microbes.

Project description:Instability in the composition of gut bacterial communities, referred as dysbiosis, has been associated with important human intestinal disorders such as CrohnM-bM-^@M-^Ys disease and colorectal cancer. Here, we show that dysbiosis coupled to Nod2 or Rip2 deficiency suffices to cause an increased risk for intestinal inflammation and colitis-associated carcinogenesis in mice. Aggravated epithelial lesions and dysplasia upon chemical-induced injury associated with loss of Nod2 or Rip2 can be prevented by antibiotics or anti-IL6R treatment. Nod2-mediated risk for intestinal inflammation and colitis-associated tumorigenesis is communicable through maternally-transmitted microbiota even to wild-type hosts. Disease progression was identified to drive complex NOD2-dependent changes of the colonic-associated microbiota. Reciprocal microbiota transplantation rescues the vulnerability of Nod2-deficient mice to colonic injury. Altogether, our results unveil an unexpected function for NOD2 in shaping a protective assembly of gut microbial communities, providing a rationale for intentional manipulation of genotype-dependent dysbiosis as a causative therapeutic principle in chronic intestinal inflammation. Analysis used RNA extracted from colonic mucosa of untreated, antibiotics-treated or metronidazole-treated C57Bl/6J and Nod2-deficient mice in CAC model. Direct comparisons were performed as follow: C57Bl/6J untreated mice vs Nod2-deficient untreated mice, C57Bl/6J antibiotics-treated mice vs Nod2-deficient antibiotics-treated mice, C57Bl/6J metronidazole-treated mice vs Nod2-deficient metronidazole-treated mice, C57Bl/6J untreated mice vs C57Bl/6J antibiotics-treated mice, C57Bl/6J untreated mice vs C57Bl/6J metronidazole-treated mice, Nod2-deficient untreated mice vs Nod2-deficient antibiotics-treated mice, Nod2-deficient untreated mice vs Nod2-deficient metronidazole-treated mice. Indirect comparisons with control data were made across multiple arrays with raw data pulled from different channels for data analysis.

Project description:Characterization of NWD1; a novel NLR-related protein and further correlate it as a putative Prostate Cancer marker. NLRs (NACHT and Leucine Rich Repeat domain containing proteins) constitute a major subfamily of innate immunity proteins mostly acting as cytosolic pattern recognition receptors (PRRs), involved in the detection of cytoplasmic pathogen-associated molecular patterns (PAMPs) and endogenous danger signals. The recognition of the signals initiates a variety of host defense pathways through the activation of NF-kappaB, stress kinases, interferon response factors (IRFs) and/or inflammatory caspases. Despite the importance in host immune response, deregulation on NLR activities has been described in a variety of maladies, including chronic inflammation and cancer predisposition. For instance, NOD1 was one of the first NLR members shown to possibly play a role in tumorigenesis, since NOD1 stimulation induces apoptosis in MCF-7 breast carcinoma cells, and NOD1-/- MCF-7 cells generate larger tumors after injection in SCID mice. Mice deficient in NLR member NLRP3, and/or its interacting partners ASC or caspase-1, are also shown to be more susceptible to colitis-associated cancer (CAC). Polymorphisms along NLR genes NOD1 and NOD2 have also been correlated with altered cancer risk. NOD1 SNPs have been associated with gastric cancer, lymphoma, ovarian, prostate, and lung cancer due to the recognition of H. pylori (etiologic agent in gastric cancer and MALT lymphoma), C. trachomatis (putative etiologic agent in ovarian cancer), P. acnes (possible causative agent in PCa) and C. pneumonia (plausible etiological agent in lung cancer) as NOD1 ligands. Particularly, NOD1 and NOD2 have been shown to be fully operative in prostate epithelial cells and, in cooperation with TLRs, may elicit immune response during PCa progression.

Project description:Instability in the composition of gut bacterial communities, referred as dysbiosis, has been associated with important human intestinal disorders such as Crohn’s disease and colorectal cancer. Our data showed that Nod2-mediated risk of intestinal inflammation in colitis model is communicable to WT mice by cohousing. Here, we investigated if Nod2-deficient mice microbiota is able to change transcript profiles in Nod2-immunocompetent mice (C57Bl6/J mice) independently of colitis. Analysis used RNA extracted from colonic mucosa of C57Bl/6J mice co-housed with Nod2-deficient mice and C57Bl/6J mice alone. Direct comparisons of 4 biologicals replicates of C57Bl/6J mice cohoused with Nod2-deficient mice vs C57Bl/6J mice were performed.

Particularly, NOD1 and NOD2 have been shown to be fully operative in prostate epithelial cells and, in cooperation with TLRs, may elicit immune response during PCa progression. To access a tissue-specific gene expression profile for NWD1, quantitative PCR analysis was performed using a normalized cDNA panel derived from 48 human tissues (TissueScan Tissue qPCR Array, Origene). Two apparently independent expression patterns were detected, respectively related to neurological related organs (brain, pituitary and retina) and male reproductive system (prostate, epididymis and testis), where the highest mRNA levels was observed in prostate tissue. Results were confirmed using a second set of NWD1-specific qPCR primers (data not shown). Moreover, a similar expression pattern was virtually observed using the SAGE database from the Cancer Genome Anatomy Project (CGAP) of the National Cancer Institute (not shown). Comparative gene expression microarray data was analyzed systematically by Ingenuity Pathway Analysis (IPA) to set up potential networks based on NWD1 regulated genes. The eventual participation of NWD1 in signaling transduction pathways was further examined by microarray analysis (Human WG-6v3 Expression BeadChip, Illumina) comparing the expression profile of PPC-1 cells lacking NWD1 expression (sh184 & sh3922) versus control cells (shGFP). According to the differential expression profile that was generated and analyzed by the Ingenuity PathwaysTM software (IPA version 7.1, Ingenuity Systems), NWD1 is presumably associated with biological networks related, for instance, to tissue morphology, organogenesis, cancer and neurological diseases .
