HSD17B13 liquid-liquid phase separation activates autocrine platelet-activating factor signaling in NASH

ABSTRACT: Loss-of-function variants in 17-beta hydroxysteroid dehydrogenase 13 (HSD17B13) are associated with decreased inflammation in human chronic liver disease. The underlying mechanism by which HSD17B13 promotes liver inflammation remains largely elusive. Here we find that HSD17B13 undergoes liquid-liquid phase separation (LLPS) around lipid droplets (LDs) in the liver of NASH patients. Dimerization of HSD17B13 drives LLPS formation and regulates its enzyme activity. HSD17B13 LLPS promotes leukocyte adhesion and fibrinogen expression in hepatocytes via activating autocrine platelet activating factor (PAF) signaling. Importantly, adeno-associated viral (AAV)-mediated xeno-expression of human HSD17B13 promotes liver inflammation in Hsd17b13-/- mice induced by high fat diet/carbon tetrachloride treatment. In conclusion, HSD17B13 LLPS triggers liver inflammation via promoting PAF-mediated leukocyte adhesion. Targeting HSD17B13 phase transition would be a promising approach to treat liver inflammation in chronic liver disease.

Study on the effect and mechanism of c-Maf liquid-liquid separation in promoting MM cellular proliferation and drug resistance through Mtbp/c-Myc axis

Project description:Previous experiments have demonstrated that c-Maf can undergo liquid-liquid phase separation (LLPS) in MM. In order to search for the downstream target genes of c-Maf based on its LLPS regulation, we successfully constructed three kinds of cells with EV, c-Maf and already c-Maf-IDR mutation, and simultaneously subjected the three kinds of cells to ChIP sequencing (selecting the FLAG-tagged antibody), and then analysed them for the differential genes, thus screening the downstream targets of c-Maf based on its LLPS regulation.

Suppression of liquid-liquid phase separation by 1,6-hexanediol partially compromises the 3D genome organization in living cells

Project description:Liquid-liquid phase separation (LLPS) contributes to the spatial and functional segregation of molecular processes within the cell nucleus. However, the role played by LLPS in chromatin folding in living cells remains unclear. Here, using stochastic optical reconstruction microscopy (STORM) and Hi-C techniques, we studied the effects of 1,6-hexanediol (1,6-HD)- mediated LLPS disruption/modulation on higher-order chromatin organization in living cells. We found that 1,6-HD treatment caused the enlargement of nucleosome clutches and their more uniform distribution in the nuclear space. At a megabase-scale, chromatin underwent moderate but irreversible perturbations that resulted in the partial mixing of A and B compartments. The removal of 1,6-HD from the culture medium did not allow chromatin to acquire initial configurations, and resulted in more compact repressed chromatin than in untreated cells. 1,6-HD treatment also weakened enhancer-promoter interactions and TAD insulation but did not considerably affect CTCF-dependent loops. Our results suggest that 1,6-HD-sensitive LLPS plays a limited role in chromatin spatial organization by constraining its folding patterns and facilitating compartmentalization at different levels.

Homodimer-mediated phosphorylation of C/EBPα-p42 S16 modulates acute myeloid leukaemia differentiation through liquid-liquid phase separation [ChIP-seq]

Project description:CCAAT/enhancer binding protein α (C/EBPα) regulates myeloid differentiation, and its dysregulation contributes to acute myeloid leukaemia (AML) progress. Clarifying its functional implementation mechanism is of great significance for its further clinical application. Here, we show that C/EBPα regulates AML cell differentiation through liquid-liquid phase separation (LLPS), which can be disrupted by C/EBPα-p30. Considering that C/EBPα-p30 inhibits the functions of C/EBPα through the LZ region, a small peptide TAT-LZ that could instantaneously interfere with the homodimerization of C/EBPα-p42 was constructed, and dynamic inhibition of C/EBPα phase separation was observed, demonstrating the importance of C/EBPα-p42 homodimers for its LLPS. Mechanistically, homodimerization of C/EBPα-p42 mediated its phosphorylation at the novel phosphorylation site S16, which promoted LLPS and subsequent AML cell differentiation. Finally, decreasing the endogenous C/EBPα-p30/C/EBPα-p42 ratio rescued the phase separation of C/EBPα in AML cells, which provided a new insight for the treatment of the AML.

First direct observation of elongated conformational states in alpha-synuclein upon liquid-liquid phase separation

Project description:α-Synuclein (α-syn) is an intrinsically disordered protein (IDP) that undergoes liquid-liquid phase separation (LLPS), fibrillation, and forms insoluble intracellular Lewy’s bodies in neurons, which are the hallmark of Parkinson’s Disease (PD). Neurotoxicity precedes the formation of aggregates and is probably related to LLPS of α-syn in the cell. The molecular mechanisms underlying the early stages of LLPS are still elusive. To obtain structural insights into α-syn upon LLPS, we take advantage of cross-linking/mass spectrometry (XL-MS) and introduced an innovative new approach, termed COMPASS (COMPetitive PAiring StatisticS). COMPASS unravels transient interactions between α-syn molecules in liquid droplets to derive structural information of α-syn upon LLPS. In this work, we show that the conformational ensemble of α-syn shifts towards more elongated conformational states upon LLPS. We obtain insights into the critical initial stages of PD and establish a novel mass spectrometry-based approach that will aid to solve open questions in LLPS structural biology.

CPSF role on APA regulation

Project description:We found that CPSF6, a component of the CFIm, can form liquid-liquid phase separation (LLPS) and the elevated LLPS induces the preferential usage of the distal poly(A) sites. CLK2, a kinase upregulated in cancer cells, destructs LLPS of CPSF6 by phosphorylating its arginine/serine-like domain. Albeit higher expression of CPSF6 in cancer, the reduction of LLPS leads to shortening 3’ UTR of cell cycle related genes and then promotes cell proliferation. These results reveal that LLPS regulation of CPSF6 is a fine tuning way of APA in cancer cells and provide a new mechanism for APA regulation by regulating LLPS of 3’ end processing factors through post-translational modification.

The phase separation-dependent FUS interactome reveals nuclear and cytoplasmic function of liquid-liquid phase separation

Project description:Liquid-liquid phase separation (LLPS) of proteins and RNAs has emerged as the driving force underlying the formation of membrane-less organelles. Such biomolecular condensates have various biological functions and have been linked to disease. One of the best studied proteins undergoing LLPS is Fused in Sarcoma (FUS), a predominantly nuclear RNA-binding protein. Mutations in FUS have been causally linked to Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis (ALS), an adult-onset motor neuron disease, and LLPS followed by aggregation of cytoplasmic FUS has been proposed to be a crucial disease mechanism. In spite of this, it is currently unclear how LLPS impacts the behaviour of FUS in cells, e.g. its interactome. In order to study the consequences of LLPS on FUS and its interaction partners, we developed a method that allows for the purification of phase separated FUS-containing droplets from cell lysates. We observe substantial alterations in the interactome of FUS, depending on its biophysical state. While non-phase separated FUS interacts mainly with its well-known interaction partners involved in pre-mRNA processing, phase-separated FUS predominantly binds to proteins involved in chromatin remodelling and DNA damage repair. Interestingly, factors with function in mitochondria are strongly enriched with phase-separated FUS, providing a potential explanation for early changes in mitochondrial gene expression observed in mouse models of ALS-FUS. In summary, we present a methodology that allows to investigate the interactome of phase-separating proteins and provide evidence that LLPS strongly shapes the FUS interactome with important implications for function and disease.

Impact of Ino-C2-PAF on the gene expression profile of HaCaT cells after stimulation with pro-inflammatory cytokines

Project description:New alkyl-phospholipids (APLs) that are structurally derived from the platelet-activating factor are promising candidates for anticancer treatment. After the incorporation into cell membranes, APLs are able to interfere with a wide variety of key enzymes implicated in cell growth, motility, invasion and apoptosis. Recently, using Agilent cDNA microarray technology, we could demonstrate that the glycosidated APL Ino-C2-PAF inhibited the expression of several genes associated with immune response and inflammation in immortalized keratinocytes HaCaT. Here, we analyzed the impact of Ino-C2-PAF on the gene expression profile of HaCaT cells treated with several pro-inflammatory cytokines (IL-1M-NM-1, IL-17, IL-22, TNF-M-NM-1 and oncostatin-M). The influence of Ino-C2-PAF on the transcriptional profile of immortalized keratinocytes (HaCaT) was analyzed treating HaCaT cells with 5 M-BM-5M Ino-C2-PAF in the presence of a mixture of pro-inflammatory cytokines (IL-1M-NM-1, IL-17, IL-22, TNF-M-NM-1 and oncostatin-M) for 24 h. Control cells were left untreated. Three independent experiments were performed for each condition, except for control cells where only two experiments were performed. Control cells were mainly necessary to demonstrate the efficiency of this in vitro inflammation model for keratinocytes.

Transcriptomics analysis of gene expression in control and Ddx3xb knockout zebrafish embryos

Project description:We show that liquid-liquid phase separation (LLPS)-mediated zebrafish Ddx3xb condensation facilitates MZT through promoting maternal mRNAs translation. Ddx3xb forms condensates via its N-terminal intrinsically disordered regions (IDRs), and the gradually increased ATP concentration after fertilization promotes its aggregation capability. Ddx3xb-deficiency decelerates the decay of maternal mRNAs and impedes zygotic genome activation, further leading to developmental defect. The phenotype in Ddx3xb-deficiency embryos can be efficiently rescued by condensed Ddx3xb, but not the Ddx3xb without LLPS ability. Mechanistically, the condensation of Ddx3xb is vital for its RNA helicase activity, which is critical for involved in promoting translation efficiency of maternal mRNAs through opening 5’ UTR structures during the MZT process. Our study demonstrates that the condensation of Ddx3xb promotes maternal mRNAs translation via its RNA unwinding activity and further facilitates MZT, highlighting the critical role of protein phase separation in translational control and animal early development.
