Project description:Nrf2 is a transcription factor playing an essential role in stress response. A knowledge of the significance of Nrf2 in cell function has not, as yet, reached out beyond transactivation of gene expression. This paper shows that GDF-15 and SDF-1-induced angiogenesis strongly depends on Nrf2 presence, but is not related to its transcriptional activity. We propose, that Nrf2 serves as a protein restraining Keap1, its known transcriptional repressor. Deficiency of Nrf2 protein available for Keap1 leads to overabundance of RhoGAP1, the protein regulating Cdc42 activity, and impairs podosome assembly, thereby indisposing actin rearrangements, preventing migration and angiogenesis. These activities can be rescued by concomitant deletion of RhoGAP1 or Keap1. We suggest that a new Nrf2 function of a Keap1 scavenger implies revising the established murine model of Nrf2 deficiency as a transcriptional knock out (tKO) mouse. The N-terminal fragment of Nrf2, containing Neh2 domain binding Keap1, is present in these animals. Thus, regarding the function of Nrf2 as a protein sequestering Keap1, both published and unpublished data on Nrf2-Keap1 duet may gain new interpretation.

Project description:KEAP1, a cytoplasmic repressor of the oxidative stress responsive transcription factor NRF2, senses the presence of electrophilic agents by modification of its sensor cysteine residues. In addition to xenobiotics, several reactive metabolites have been shown to covalently modify key cysteines on KEAP1, although the full repertoire of these molecules and their respective modifications remains undefined. Here, we report the discovery of sAKZ692, a small molecule identified by high throughput screening that stimulates NRF2 transcriptional activity in cells by inhibiting the glycolytic enzyme pyruvate kinase. sAKZ692 treatment promotes the buildup of glyceraldehyde 3-phosphate, a metabolite which leads to S-lactate modification of cysteine sensor residues of KEAP1, resulting in NRF2 dependent transcription. This work identifies a novel posttranslational modification of cysteine derived from a reactive central carbon metabolite and helps further define the complex relationship between metabolism and the oxidative stress sensing machinery of the cell.

Project description:Cancer-derived loss-of-function mutations in the KEAP1 tumor suppressor gene stabilize the NRF2 transcription factor, resulting in a pro-survival gene expression program that alters cellular metabolism and neutralizes oxidative stress. In a previous study of KEAP1 mutations observed in lung cancer, we classified 40% of the mutations as ‘superbinders’ (superbinders). These mutants bind and ubiquitylate NRF2 but do not promote NRF2 degradation. Here, we further investigated the molecular mechanism(s) driving the superbinder phenotype. BioID-based quantitative proteomic analysis of the R320Q and R470C superbinder mutations revealed increased co-complexed NRF2 without significant alteration to other KEAP1-associated proteins, including CUL3, VCP, and several ubiquitin receptors within the proteasome lid. Dynamic simulation modeling and limited proteolysis analyses suggest that superbinder mutations stabilize residues in KEAP1 that contact NRF2. In cells, KEAP1 R320Q and R470C mutants co-localize with NRF2, p62/SQSTM1 and polyubiquitin in spherical clusters that rapidly fuse and dissolve; KEAP1-NRF2 localization to these clusters requires p62. Expression of R320Q and R470C in lung cancer cells provided resistance to the reactive oxygen species-inducing drug bleomycin. We present a model wherein superbinder mutations alter the conformational dynamics of the KEAP1-NRF2 complex to alter the cycling of KEAP1 between open and closed conformations, thus inhibiting NRF2 degradation.

Project description:The transcription factor NRF2 plays an important role in many biological processes and is a promising therapeutic target. NRF2 is highly expressed in the skin and is known to play a critical role in diabetic wound healing, a disease state with limited treatment options. However, many existing NRF2 activators display off-target effects due to their electrophilic mechanism, underscoring the need for alternative approaches. In this work, we investigated two recently described, non-electrophilic NRF2 activators, ADJ-310 and PRL-295, and demonstrated their efficacy in vitro and in vivo. Both ADJ-310 and PRL-295 maintained human keratinocyte cell viability at increasing concentrations and maintained or improved cell proliferation over time. Both compounds also increased cell migration, improving in vitro wound closure. ADJ-310 and PRL-295 enhanced the oxidative stress response in vitro, and RNA-sequencing data showed that PRL-295 activated NRF2 with a narrower transcriptomic effect than the widely used electrophilic NRF2 activator, CDDO-Me. In vivo, both ADJ-310 and PRL-295 improved wound healing in Leprdb/db diabetic mice. The non-electrophilic compounds ADJ-310 and PRL-295 are effective, innovative tools for the investigation of the function of NRF2 that directly address the need for alternative NRF2 activators. They offer a new approach to studying the role of NRF2 in human diseases and its potential as a therapeutic. Both non-electrophilic NRF2 activators promoted wound healing functions in human keratinocytes and improved wound healing in diabetic mice, demonstrating their efficacy both in vitro and in vivo. RNA sequencing showed that PRL-295 upregulated downstream target genes that favorably compared with those of CDDO-Me.

Project description:Clinical evidence has revealed that high-level activation of NRF2 caused by somatic mutations in NRF2 is frequently detected in esophageal squamous cell carcinoma (ESCC), whereas that by somatic mutations in KEAP1, a negative regulator of NRF2, is not. Here, we challenged to generate a mouse model of NRF2-activated ESCC using the cancer-derived NRF2L30F mutation and cancer-driver mutant Trp53R172H. Concomitant expression of NRF2L30F and Trp53R172H induced proliferation of squamous cell epithelia and resulted in NRF2-activated ESCC-like lesions. In contrast, while squamous cell-specific deletion of KEAP1 induced similar NRF2 hyper-activation, the loss-of-KEAP1 combined with Trp53R172H did not elicit the proliferation and formation of ESCC-like lesions. Instead, KEAP1-deleted cells disappeared from the esophageal epithelium over time by cell competition. These findings provide insights into the observation that somatic mutations are more frequently observed in NRF2 than in KEAP1, and the mouse model developed here will be instrumental in elucidating the mechanistic basis leading to NRF2-activated ESCC.

Project description:The activation of the transcription factor NF-E2-related factor 2 (Nrf2) maintains cellular homeostasis in response to oxidative stress by the regulation of multiple cytoprotective genes. Without stressors the activity of Nrf2 is inhibited by its interaction with the kelch-like ECH-associated protein 1 (Keap1). Here, we describe RA839, a small molecule that binds non-covalently to the Nrf2-interacting kelch domain of Keap1 with a Kd of approximately 6 µM, as demonstrated by X-ray co-crystallization and isothermal titration calorimetry. Whole-genome DNA arrays showed that at 10 µM RA839 significantly regulated 105 genes in bone marrow-derived macrophages. Canonical pathway mapping of these genes revealed an activation of pathways linked with Nrf2 signalling. These pathways were also activated after the activation of Nrf2 by the silencing of Keap1 expression. RA839 regulated only two genes in Nrf2 knockout macrophages. Similar to the activation of Nrf2 by either silencing of Keap1 expression or by the reactive compound CDDO-Me, RA839 prevented the induction of both inducible nitric oxide synthase expression and nitric oxide release in response to lipopolysaccharides in macrophages. In mice RA839 acutely induced Nrf2-target gene expression in liver. RA839 is a selective inhibitor of the Keap1/Nrf2 interaction and a useful tool compound to study the biology of Nrf2. Gene expression profile of bone marrow derived murine macrophages (BMDM) from Nrf2+/+ or Nrf2-/- mice treated with RA838, siKeap1-1 or siKeap1-2 were compared to untreated DMSO control or siControl. Four biological replicates were used for each sample group.

Project description:Genetic versus chemoprotective activation of Nrf2 signaling: overlapping yet distinct hepatic gene expression profiles between Keap1 knockout and triterpenoid treated mice; Loss of Nrf2 signaling increases susceptibility to acute toxicity, inflammation, and carcinogenesis in mice due to the inability to mount adaptive responses. By contrast, disruption of Keap1 (a cytoplasmic modifier of Nrf2 turnover) protects against these stresses in mice; although dominant negative mutations in Keap1 have been identified recently in some human cancers. Global characterization of Nrf2 activation is important to exploit this pathway for chemoprevention in healthy, yet at-risk individuals and also to elucidate the consequences of hijacking the pathway in Keap1-mutant human cancers. This analysis also enables a global characterization of the pharmacodynamic action of CDDO-Im at a low dose that is relevant to chemoprevention. Experiment Overall Design: Liver-targeted conditional Keap1-null (CKO) mice provide a model of genetic activation of Nrf2 signaling. By coupling global gene expression analysis of CKO mice with analysis of pharmacologic activation using the synthetic oleanane triterpenoid CDDO-Im, we are able to gain insight into pathways affected by Nrf2 activation. CDDO-Im is an extremely potent activator of Nrf2 signaling. CKO mice were used to identify genes modulated by genetic activation of Nrf2 signaling. The CKO response was compared to hepatic global gene expression changes in wild-type mice treated with CDDO-Im at a maximal Nrf2 activating dose. n=3/group, male 9 week old mice were used. Mice were treated with a single dose of vehicle (10% Cremophor-EL, 10% DMSO, and PBS) or 30 umol CDDO-Im/kg body weight by gavage and sacrificed 6 h later.
