Divergent roles for caspase-8 and MLKL in high-fat diet induced obesity and NAFLD in mice

ABSTRACT: Cell death frequently occurs in the pathogenesis of obesity and non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD). However, the exact contribution of core cell death machinery to disease manifestations remains ill defined. Here, we show via the direct comparison of mice genetically deficient in apoptotic caspase-8 in myeloid cells, or the essential necroptotic regulators, Receptor-interacting protein kinase-3 (RIPK3) and Mixed lineage kinase domain-like (MLKL), that RIPK3-caspase-8 signaling regulates macrophage inflammatory responses and drives adipose tissue inflammation and NAFLD upon high-fat diet feeding. In contrast, MLKL, divergent to RIPK3, contributes to both obesity and NAFLD in a manner largely independent of inflammation. We also uncover that MLKL regulates the expression of molecules involved in lipid uptake, transport and metabolism and, congruent with this, we discover a shift in the hepatic lipidome upon MLKL deletion. Collectively, these findings highlight MLKL as an attractive therapeutic target to combat the growing obesity pandemic and metabolic disease.

Ptpn6 inhibits caspase-8- and Ripk3/Mlkl-dependent inflammation

Project description:Ptpn6 is a cytoplasmic phosphatase that functions to prevent autoimmune disease and IL-1R-dependent caspase-1-independent inflammatory disease. Conditional deletion of Ptpn6 in neutrophils (Ptpn6∆PMN) is sufficient to initiate IL-1R-dependent cutaneous inflammatory disease, but the source of IL-1 and the mechanisms behind IL-1 release remain unclear. Here, we investigated the mechanisms controlling IL-1α/β release from neutrophils by inhibiting caspase-8-dependent apoptosis and Ripk1/Ripk3/Mlkl-regulated necroptosis. Loss of Ripk1 accelerated disease onset, whereas combined deletion of caspase-8 and either Ripk3 or Mlkl strongly protected Ptpn6∆PMN mice. Ptpn6∆PMN neutrophils displayed increased p38-dependent Ripk1-independent IL-1 and TNF production, and were prone to cell death. Together, these data emphasize dual functions for Ptpn6 in the negative regulation of p38 MAP kinase activation to control TNF and IL-1α/β transcription, and in maintaining Ripk1 function to prevent caspase-8- and Ripk3/Mlkl-dependent cell death and concomitant IL-1α/β release.

Oligomerisation-driven MLKL ubiquitylation antagonises necroptosis

Project description:Mixed lineage kinase domain-like (MLKL) is the executioner in the caspase 8-independent form of programmed cell death called necroptosis. Once Receptor Interacting serine/threonine Protein Kinase 3 (RIPK3) is activated by upstream cell death signals, it phosphorylates MLKL and triggers the oligomerization and membrane translocation required for MLKL induced membrane disruption. Besides phosphorylation, MLKL also undergoes ubiquitylation during the early stages of necroptosis, yet neither the mechanism nor the significance of this event has been demonstrated. Here we show that necroptosis-specific, multi-mono-ubiquitylation of MLKL occurs on biological membranes, and requires its activation and oligomerisation. Inactive MLKL mutants recruited to membranes during necroptosis are ubiquitylated but this results in their proteasome and lysosome dependent turnover. We identified several ubiquitylated lysines however mutation of these did not affect MLKL ubiquitylation in response to a necroptotic stimulus.

Single cell RNA-seq of intestine from E18.5 Mlkl -/- and Casp8 C362A/C362A Mlkl -/- embryos

Project description:Caspase-8 is a protease with both pro-death and pro-survival functions: it is required for apoptosis induced by death receptors such as TNFR1 (tumour necrosis factor receptor 1), and it has a critical role in suppressing necroptosis mediated by the kinase RIPK3 (receptor interacting protein kinase 3) and the pseudokinase MLKL (mixed lineage kinase-like). Mice lacking caspase-8 display MLKL-dependent embryonic lethality, as do mice expressing catalytically inactive caspase-8 mutant C362A. However, Casp8C362A/C362A Mlkl-/- mice die in the perinatal period, whereas Casp8-/- Mlkl-/- mice are viable, indicating that inactive caspase-8 also has a pro-death scaffolding function. Here we show that caspase-8 C362A triggers ASC speck formation and caspase-1-dependent pyroptosis in MLKL-deficient intestinal epithelial cells (IECs) around embryonic day 18. Pyroptosis contributed to the perinatal lethal phenotype because a number of Casp8 C362A/C362A Mlkl-/- Casp1-/- mice survived beyond weaning. Transfection studies suggested inactive caspase-8 adopts a distinct conformation to wild-type caspase-8, enabling it to engage the caspase-1 adaptor ASC. Wild-type caspase-8 was found in the Triton X-100 soluble fraction, whereas wild-type caspase-8 inhibited with the pan-caspase inhibitor emricasan, or inactive caspase-8 mutant C362A, were detected in the insoluble fraction. Moreover, inhibited or inactive caspase-8 shifted ASC into the insoluble fraction. Perinatal lethality was recapitulated when expression of caspase-8 C362A was restricted to IECs, but intriguingly, only in the absence of MLKL. Hence, unanticipated plasticity in death pathways is revealed such that IECs can undergo caspase-1-dependent death when caspase-8-dependent apoptosis and MLKL-dependent necroptosis are inhibited.

CASP8 C362A KI MLKL KO e16.5 intestine RNAseq

Project description:Caspase-8 is a protease with both pro-death and pro-survival functions: it is required for apoptosis induced by death receptors such as TNFR1 (tumor necrosis factor receptor 1) 1, and it has a critical role in suppressing necroptosis mediated by the kinase RIPK3 (receptor interacting protein kinase 3) and the pseudokinase MLKL (mixed lineage kinase-like) 2-4. Mice lacking caspase-8 display MLKL-dependent embryonic lethality 4, as do mice expressing catalytically inactive caspase-8 mutant C362A. However, Casp8C362A/C362A Mlkl-/- mice die in the perinatal period, whereas Casp8-/- Mlkl-/- mice are viable 4, indicating that inactive caspase-8 also has a pro-death scaffolding function. Here we show that inactive caspase-8 activates pyroptosis in MLKL-deficient intestinal epithelial cells around embryonic day 18, triggering the formation of ASC specks. Accordingly, intestinal atrophy and perinatal lethality in Casp8C362A/C362A Mlkl-/- mice was prevented by loss of caspase-1. In transfection studies, inactive caspase-8 mutants C362A or C362S were found in both the triton X-100 insoluble and soluble fractions, whereas wild-type caspase-8 existed only in the soluble fraction. Moreover, inactive caspase-8 shifted co-transfected ASC into the insoluble fraction, whereas wild-type caspase-8 did not. Thus, a defense mechanism is revealed that would allow intestinal epithelial cell death in the face of pathogens expressing virulence factors to inhibit caspase-8-dependent apoptosis and necroptosis.

An immunohistochemical atlas of necroptotic pathway expression

Project description:Necroptosis is a lytic form of regulated cell death reported to contribute to inflammatory diseases of the gut, skin and lung, as well as ischemic-reperfusion injuries of the kidney, heart and brain. However, precise identification of the cells and tissues that undergo necroptotic cell death in vivo has proven challenging in the absence of robust protocols for immunohistochemical detection. Here, we provide automated immunohistochemistry protocols to detect core necroptosis regulators – Caspase-8, RIPK1, RIPK3 and MLKL – in formalin-fixed mouse and human tissues. We observed surprising heterogeneity in protein expression within tissues, whereby short-lived immune barrier cells were replete with necroptotic effectors, whereas long-lived cells lacked RIPK3 or MLKL expression. Local changes in the expression of necroptotic effectors occurred in response to insults such as inflammation, dysbiosis or immune challenge, consistent with necroptosis being dysregulated in disease contexts. These methods will facilitate the precise localisation and evaluation of necroptotic signaling in vivo.

Components of the ESCRT machinery act downstream of MLKL to regulate necroptotic cell death and its consequences

Project description:The activation of Mixed Lineage Kinase-Like (MLKL) by Receptor Interacting Protein Kinase-3 (RIPK3) results in plasma membrane (PM) disruption and a form of regulated necrosis, called necroptosis. Here we show that during necroptosis, MLKL-dependent calcium (Ca++) influx and phosphatidylserine (PS) exposure on the outer leaflet of the plasma membrane preceded loss of PM integrity. Activation of MLKL results in the generation of broken, PM “bubbles” with exposed PS that are released from the surface of the otherwise intact cell. Components of the ESCRT machinery are required for formation of these bubbles, and act to sustain survival of the cell when MLKL activation is limited or reversed. Under conditions of necroptotic cell death, ESCRT controls the duration of plasma membrane integrity. As a consequence of the action of ESCRT, cells undergoing necroptosis can express chemokines and other regulatory molecules, and promote antigenic cross-priming of CD8+ T cells.

Proteomic analysis of TRAIL-induced endogenous RIPK3-dependent necrosome complex

Project description:Tumor necrosis factor-related apoptosis-inducing ligand (TRAIL) is a well-known inducer of apoptosis via formation of the primary death-inducing signaling complex (TRAIL-DISC) at the level of membrane death receptors (DR4 and DR5) which recruit successively FADD and caspase-8. TRAIL can also induce necroptosis when caspases are inhibited. Necroptosis is a regulated cell death dependent on the formation of a cytosolic necrosome complex which includes RIPK1, RIPK3 and MLKL proteins. Elucidating the molecular mechanisms involved in TRAIL-induced necroptosis might provide new insights into the TRAIL death signaling pathway. Here, we report the analysis by mass spectrometry of endogenous RIPK3-dependent necrosome complex constituents upon necroptosis induced by TRAIL/z-VAD/Birinapant (TzB) in HT29 cells. Besides characterization of RIPK1, RIPK3, MLKL, FADD, caspase-8, we find TRIM21 as a new constituent of the necrosome complex. Moreover RIPK1, RIPK3, MLKL, P-MLKL, FADD, caspase-8 and TRIM21 are also found associated to the native TRAIL-DISC upon TzB stimulation showing initiation of the necrotic pathway at the level of TRAIL death receptors in HT29 cells. Finally, TRIM21 may positively modulate necroptosis induction by downregulating NF-kB activation.

Caspase-8 and FADD prevent spontaneous ZBP1 expression and necroptosis

Project description:Caspase-8 and FADD play key roles in the regulation of cell death by necroptosis. The absence of either protein results in early embryonic lethality due to the activation of the kinase RIPK3 and its phosphorylation of the necroptosis executioner, MLKL. We genetically engineered and characterized a mouse model to monitor MLKL phosphorylation in the absence of necroptosis in vivo. Ablation of caspase-8 or FADD resulted in the transcriptional upregulation in several tissues of ZBP1, a cytosolic nucleic acid sensor capable of activating RIPK3, and ZBP1 was required for spontaneous phosphorylation of MLKL. Our findings provide a novel mechanism by which the FADD-Caspase-8 complex prevents necroptosis.

A necroptosis-independent function of RIPK3 promotes immune dysfunction and prevents control of chronic LCMV infection

Project description:Necroptosis is a lytic and inflammatory form of cell death that is highly constrained to mitigate detrimental collateral tissue damage and impaired immunity. These constraints make it difficult to define the relevance of necroptosis in diseases such as chronic and persistent viral infections and within individual organ systems. The role of necroptotic signalling is further complicated because proteins essential to this pathway, such as receptor interacting protein kinase 3 (RIPK3) and mixed lineage kinase domain-like (MLKL), have been implicated in roles outside of necroptotic signalling. We sought to address this issue by individually defining the role of RIPK3 and MLKL in chronic lymphocytic choriomeningitis virus (LCMV) infection. We investigated if necroptosis contributes to the death of LCMV-specific CD8+ T cells or virally infected target cells during infection. We provide evidence showing that necroptosis was redundant in the pathogenesis of acute forms of LCMV (Armstrong strain) and the early stages of chronic (Docile strain) LCMV infection in vivo. The number of immune cells, their specificity and reactivity towards viral antigens and viral loads are not altered in the absence of either MLKL or RIPK3 during acute and during the early stages of chronic LCMV infection. However, we identified that RIPK3 promotes immune dysfunction and prevents control of infection at later stages of chronic LCMV disease. This was not phenocopied by the loss of MLKL indicating that the phenotype was driven by a necroptosis-independent function of RIPK3. We provide evidence that RIPK3 signaling evoked a dysregulated type 1 interferone response which we linked to an impaired antiviral immune response and abrogated clearance of chronic LCMV infection.
