Abstract
Background: Cellular retinoic acid binding protein 1 (CRABP1) mediates rapid, non-canonical activity of retinoic acid (RA) by forming signalosomes via protein-protein interactions. Two signalosomes have been identified previously: CRABP1-MAPK and CRABP1-CaMKII. Crabp1 knockout (CKO) mice exhibited altered exosome profiles, but the mechanism of CRABP1 action was unclear. This study aimed to screen for and identify novel CRABP1 signalosomes that could modulate exosome secretion by using a combinatorial approach involving biochemical, bioinformatic and molecular studies.
Methods: Immunoprecipitation coupled with mass spectrometry (IP-MS) identified candidate CRABP1-interacting proteins which were subsequently analyzed using GO Term Enrichment, Functional Annotation Clustering; and Pathway Analysis. Gene expression analysis of CKO samples revealed altered expression of genes related to exosome biogenesis and secretion. The effect of CRABP1 on exosome secretion was then experimentally validated using CKO mice and a Crabp1 knockdown P19 cell line.
Results: IP-MS identified CRABP1-interacting targets. Bioinformatic analyses revealed significant association with actin cytoskeletal dynamics, kinases, and exosome secretion. The effect of CRABP1 on exosome secretion was experimentally validated by comparing circulating exosome numbers of CKO and wild type (WT) mice, and secreted exosomes from WT and siCRABP1-P19 cells. Pathway analysis identified kinase signaling and Arp2/3 complex as the major pathways where CRABP1-signalosomes modulate exosome secretion, which was validated in the P19 system.
Conclusion: The combinatorial approach allowed efficient screening for and identification of novel CRABP1-signalosomes. The results uncovered a novel function of CRABP1 in modulating exosome secretion, and suggested that CRABP1 could play roles in modulating intercellular communication and signal propagation.
期刊介绍:
Cell Communication and Signaling (CCS) is a peer-reviewed, open-access scientific journal that focuses on cellular signaling pathways in both normal and pathological conditions. It publishes original research, reviews, and commentaries, welcoming studies that utilize molecular, morphological, biochemical, structural, and cell biology approaches. CCS also encourages interdisciplinary work and innovative models, including in silico, in vitro, and in vivo approaches, to facilitate investigations of cell signaling pathways, networks, and behavior.
Starting from January 2019, CCS is proud to announce its affiliation with the International Cell Death Society. The journal now encourages submissions covering all aspects of cell death, including apoptotic and non-apoptotic mechanisms, cell death in model systems, autophagy, clearance of dying cells, and the immunological and pathological consequences of dying cells in the tissue microenvironment.
