Project description:Diabetes is a major chronic disease with an excessive healthcare burden on society. A coding variant (p.Arg192His) in the transcription factor PAX4 is uniquely and reproducibly associated with altered risk for type 2 diabetes (T2D) in East Asian populations, whilst rare PAX4 alleles have been proposed to cause monogenic diabetes8. In mice, Pax4 is essential for beta cell formation but neither the role of diabetes-associated variants in PAX4 nor PAX4 itself on human beta cell development and/or function are known. Here, we demonstrate that non-diabetic carriers of either the PAX4 p.Arg192His or a newly identified p.Tyr186X allele exhibit decreased pancreatic beta cell function. In the human beta cell model, EndoC-βH1, PAX4 knockdown led to impaired insulin secretion, reduced total insulin content and altered hormone gene expression. Deletion of PAX4 in isogenic human induced pluripotent stem cell (hiPSC)-derived beta-like cells resulted in de-repression of alpha cell gene expression whilst in vitro differentiation of hiPSCs from carriers of PAX4 p.192His and p.186X alleles exhibited increased polyhormonal endocrine cell formation and reduced insulin content. In silico and in vitro studies showed that these PAX4 alleles cause either reduced PAX4 expression or function. Correction of the diabetes-associated PAX4 alleles reversed these phenotypic changes. Together, we demonstrate the role of PAX4 in human endocrine cell development, beta cell function and its contribution to type 2 diabetes risk.

Project description:Loss of muscle proteins and the consequent weakness has important clinical consequences in diseases such as cancer, diabetes, chronic heart failure and in ageing. In fact, excessive proteolysis causes cachexia, accelerates disease progression and worsens life expectancy. Muscle atrophy involves a common pattern of transcriptional changes in a small subset of genes named atrophy-related genes or atrogenes. Whether microRNAs play a role in the atrophy program and muscle loss is debated. To understand the involvement of miRNAs in atrophy we performed miRNA expression profiling of mouse muscles under wasting conditions such as fasting, denervation, diabetes and cancer cachexia. We found that the miRNA signature is peculiar of each catabolic condition. We then focused on denervation and we revealed that changes in transcripts and microRNAs expression did not occur simultaneously but were shifted. Indeed, while the transcriptional control of the atrophy-related genes peaks at 3 days, the changes of miRNA expression maximised at 7 days after denervation. Among the different miRNAs, microRNA-206 and 21 were the most induced in denervated muscles. We characterized their pattern of expression and defined their role in muscle homeostasis. Indeed, in vivo gain and loss of function experiments revealed that miRNA-206 and miRNA-21 were sufficient and required for atrophy program. In silico and in vivo approaches identified the transcription factor YY1 and the translational initiator factor eIF4E3 as downstream targets of these miRNAs. Thus miRNAs are important for the fine-tuning of the atrophy program and their modulation can be a novel potential therapeutic approach to counteract muscle loss and weakness in catabolic conditions. To determine which miRNAs are relevant for the atrophic process, we performed miRNA expression profiles of muscles from different atrophic models (starvation, denervation and streptozotocin-induced diabetes). We checked whether there was a common signature of miRNA expression in different atrophying conditions and we found that every catabolic situation require a peculiar pattern of miRNA. We further focus on the condition of denervation and identified the most up-regulated miRNAs in this condition, miRNA-206 and miRNA-21.

Project description:Cell growth is controlled by nutrients and growth factors. How cells are regulated to enter stationary phase is still poorly understood. Previously we have identified 17 yeast genes whose expression is significantly up-regulated following starvation for different macro-nutrients. Here we demonstrate that activation of some of these genes is dependent on the Rim15 kinase and the Gis1 transcription factor. Phenotypic and microarray analyses reveal that Rim15p and Gis1p have both overlapping and distinct functions suggesting a non-linear relationship between the two. Subsequently we demonstrate that independent of Rim15p, TOR controls the limited proteolysis of Gis1p and regulates the binding of functional fragments to their target promoters. The limited proteolysis of Gis1p is executed by the proteasome to prevent its target genes from over activation. Thus, TOR regulates the function of the proteasome in response to nutrients so that gene expression is properly controlled, not only during active growth, but also in stationary phase.

Project description:The innervation of skeletal myofibers exerts a crucial influence on the maintenance of muscle tone and normal operation, but little is known concerning atrophy and its underlying mechanisms in denervated muscle to date. Here, we reported that activated NOD-like receptor protein 3 (NLRP3) inflammasome with pyroptotic cell death occurred in denervated gastrocnemius in the mouse model of sciatic denervation. This damage causes interleukin 1 beta (IL-1β) release，facilitating the ubiquitin proteasome system (UPS) activation, which was responsible for muscle proteolysis. Conversely, genetic knock-out of muscular NLRP3 inhibited the pyroptosis-associated protein expression and ameliorate muscle atrophy significantly. Meanwhile, co-treatment with shRNA-NLRP3, also remarkably attenuated NLRP3 inflammasome activator (NIA)-induced C2C12 myotube pyroptosis and atrophy. Interestingly, we also observed a correlation between NLRP3 inflammasome activation and muscular apoptosis possibly via caspase 1 mediation after denervation. This work for the first time elucidates on the roles and mechanisms of NLRP3 inflammasome in skeletal muscle atrophy during denervation and suggests the potential contribution to the pathogenesis of neuromuscular diseases.

Project description:The proteasome is the main proteolytic system for targeted protein degradation in the cell. Its function is fine-tuned according to cellular needs. Inhibition of the respiratory chain impairs proteasome activity, regulation of proteasome function by mitochondrial metabolism, however, is unknown. Here, we demonstrate that mitochondrial dysfunction reduces the assembly and activity of the 26S proteasome. Defects in respiratory chain caused metabolic reprogramming of the Krebs cycle and deficiency in the amino acid aspartate resulting in reduced 26S proteasome function. Aspartate supplementation fully restored assembly and activity of 26S proteasome complexes. This metabolic reprogramming involved sensing of aspartate via the mTORC1 pathway and the mTORC1-dependent transcriptional activation of defined proteasome assembly factors. Metabolic regulation of 26S function was confirmed in patient-derived skin fibroblasts with respiratory dysfunction containing a single mitochondrial mutation. Importantly, treatment of primary human lung fibroblasts with the respiratory chain inhibitor and anti-diabetic drug metformin similarly reduced assembly and activity of 26S proteasome complexes, which was fully reversible and rescued by supplementation of aspartate or pyruvate. Of note, reduced 26S activity conferred increased resistance towards the proteasome inhibitor Bortezomib, which was reversible upon pyruvate supplementation. Our study uncovers a fundamental novel mechanism of how mitochondrial metabolism adaptively adjusts protein degradation by the proteasome. It thus unravels unexpected consequences of defective mitochondrial metabolism in disease or drug-targeted mitochondrial reprogramming for proteasomal protein degradation in the cell. As metabolic inhibition of proteasome function can be alleviated by treatment with aspartate or pyruvate, our results also have therapeutic implications.

Project description:We established an assay to localize DNA-associated proteins that are slated for degradation by the ubiquitin-proteasome system. The genome-wide map we describe here ties proteolysis to active enhancer elements and to transcription start sites of specific gene families. ChIP-sequencing of ubiquitin and transcription factors was performed in the presence or absence of proteasome inhibition.

Project description:26S proteasomes direct the degradation of many short-lived regulatory proteins and dysfunctional polypeptides, and thus are essential effectors of eukaryotic proteostasis. Proteolysis by this multi-subunit complex occurs inside a barrel-shaped 20S core protease (CP) whose quaternary structure is conserved across all domains of life, and comprises four co-axially stacked heptameric rings formed by structurally related α- and β-subunits in an αββα configuration. CP biogenesis typically begins with the assembly of the α-rings, which then serve as templates for β-subunit integration, three of which present a peptidase active site within the central β-ring chamber. In eukaryotes, α-ring assembly is partially mediated by two hetero-dimeric chaperones, termed Pba1-Pba2 and Pba3-Pba4 in yeast (or PAC1-PAC2 and PAC3-PAC4 in mammals). Pba1-Pba2 initially promotes orderly recruitment of the α-subunits through interactions between their C-terminal HbYX/HbF motifs and shallow pockets at the α5-α6 and α6-α7 interfaces. Here, we identify PBAC5 as a fifth α-ring assembly chaperone in Arabidopsis that directly associates with the Pba1 homolog PBAC1 to form a trimeric PBAC5-PBAC1-PBAC2 complex that can functionally replace the yeast Pba1-Pba2 pair. PBAC5 contains a HbYX motif that likely docks with the pocket formed between the α4 and α5 subunits during α-ring formation. Arabidopsis missing PBAC5, PBAC1, and/or PBAC2 are hypersensitive to proteotoxic, salt and osmotic stress, and display proteasome assembly defects, consistent with a role in CP assembly. Remarkably, while PBAC5 is evolutionarily conserved in plants, it is also present in other kingdoms, with homologs evident in a limited array of fungal, metazoan, and oomycete species.
