Here, we applied a metabolomics, phosphoproteomics and proteomics strategy to analyze the effect of hypertensive insults on kidneys. Our data established the metabolic aspects of hypertension‐induced glomerular sclerosis, including lipid breakdown at early disease stages and activation of anaplerotic pathways to regenerate energy equivalents to counter stress. For example, branched‐chain amino acids and proline, required for collagen synthesis, were depleted in glomeruli at early time points. Further, indicators of metabolic stress were reflected by low levels of ATP and NADH and increased abundance of oxidized lipids derived from lipid breakdown. These processes were specific to kidney glomeruli where metabolic signaling occurred through mTOR and AMPK signaling. Quantitative phosphoproteomics combined with computational modelling suggested that these processes controlled key molecules in glomeruli and specifically podocytes, including cytoskeletal components and GTP‐binding proteins, which would be expected to compete for decreasing amounts of GTP at early time points. As a result, glomeruli showed increased expression of metabolic enzymes of central carbon metabolism, amino acid degradation, and lipid oxidation, findings observed in previously published data from other disease models and patients with glomerular damage. Overall, these results suggest that metabolic interventions could be potentially useful in treating hypertension‐induced kidney disease.","PeriodicalId":22447,"journal":{"name":"The FASEB Journal","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2020-04-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"141216979","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

It is hypothesized that in addition to decreased cardiac output, increases in central‐and consequentially, cerebral‐venous pressure (backward failure) also contribute significantly to the genesis of cognitive impairment. To test this hypothesis and elucidate the specific pathogenic role of venous congestion in the brain, we have established a novel model of increased cerebral venous pressure: mice with jugular vein ligation (JVL). To test the hypothesis that increased venous pressure in the brain contributes to the development of cognitive deficits by causing blood‐brain barrier disruption, dysregulation of blood flow, and/or promoting neuroinflammation, in C57BL/6 mice, the internal and external jugular veins were ligated. Cognitive function (radial arm water maze), gait function (CatWalk), and motor coordination (rotarod) were tested post‐JVL. Neurovascular coupling responses were assessed by measuring changes in cerebral blood flow in the whisker barrel cortex in response to contralateral whisker stimulation by laser speckle contrast imaging through a closed cranial window. Blood‐brain barrier integrity (IgG extravasation) and microglia activation (Iba1 staining) were assessed in brain slices by immunohistochemistry. Neuroinflammation‐related gene expression profile was assessed by a targeted qPCR array. After jugular vein ligation, mice exhibited impaired spatial learning and memory, altered motor coordination, and impaired gait function, mimicking important aspects of altered brain function observed in human heart failure patients. JVL did not alter neurovascular coupling responses. In the brains of mice with JVL, significant extravasation of IgG was detected, indicating blood‐brain barrier disruption, which was associated with histological markers of neuroinflammation (increased presence of activated microglia) and a proinflammatory shift in gene expression profile. Thus, cerebral venous congestion per se can cause blood‐brain barrier disruption and neuroinflammation, which likely contribute to the genesis of cognitive impairment. These findings have relevance to the pathogenesis of cognitive decline associated with heart failure as well as increased cerebal venous pressure due to increased jugular venous reflux in elderly human patients.","PeriodicalId":22447,"journal":{"name":"The FASEB Journal","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2020-04-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"141217361","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Although STIV employs pyramidal lysis structures to exit the host, knowledge of the viral entry process is lacking. We therefore initiated crystallographic and cryo‐electron tomographic (CET) studies on STIV attachment and entry. Cryoelectron micrographs showed virion attachment to pili‐like structures emanating from the Sulfolobus host. Tomographic reconstruction and sub‐tomogram averaging revealed pili recognition by the STIV C381 turret protein. Specifically, the triple jelly roll structure of C381 determined by X‐ray crystallography shows that pilus recognition is mediated by conserved surface residues in the second and third domains. In addition, the STIV petal protein (C557), when present, occludes the pili binding site, suggesting that it functions as a maturation protein. Combined, these results demonstrate a role for the namesake STIV turrets in initial cellular attachment and provide the first molecular model for viral attachment in the archaeal domain of life. The work also nicely illustrates the synergistic power of hybrid structural studies utilizing cryo‐electron tomography, single particle analysis and crystallography to model cellular structures at the molecular level.","PeriodicalId":22447,"journal":{"name":"The FASEB Journal","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2020-04-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"141217815","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

A number of other PHLPP1 targets have been identified, but still little is known about the molecular mechanisms governing the function and regulation of PHLPP1 itself. Here we report that PHLPP1 is hyperphosphorylated during mitosis in a CDK1‐dependent manner, and that this hyperphosphorylation regulates its interaction with mitotic proteins. Specifically, we show that PHLPP1 undergoes an electrophoretic mobility shift in mitotic cells that is lost with lambda phosphatase treatment, and is prevented by CDK1 inhibition. This mobility shift can be recreated in vitro using recombinant CDK1‐Cyclin B. Mass spectrometry and biochemical analysis reveals that these phosphorylations modify the N‐terminus of PHLPP1, a functionally uncharacterized region. A proximity dependent biotin identification (BioID) interaction screen revealed that mitotic PHLPP1 interacts with components of the mitotic spindle apparatus and the kinetochore. Additionally, the data suggest that the N‐terminus is required for the dissociation of PHLPP1 from interphase scaffolds, such as Scribble, during mitosis. During mitotic exit, PHLPP1 protein levels decrease, suggesting that PHLPP1 is degraded during mitotic exit. This correlates with an increase in Akt Ser473 phosphorylation, a validated cellular target of PHLPP1. Our data are consistent with a model in which phosphorylation of PHLPP1 during mitosis regulates binding to its mitotic partners and allows proper passage through mitosis. Reversible protein phosphorylation, orchestrated by kinases and phosphatases, plays a role in controlling proper progression through mitosis, which is essential as errors in mitosis can result in aneuploidy, a hallmark of cancer. The finding that PHLPP1 binds mitotic proteins in a cell cycle and phosphorylation‐dependent manner may have relevance to its tumor suppressive function.","PeriodicalId":22447,"journal":{"name":"The FASEB Journal","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2020-04-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"141219190","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

In the holoenzyme, its heterohexameric ATPase injects protein substrates into the proteolytic core particle, where degradation occurs. The heterohexameric ATPase, referred to as ‘Rpt ring’, assembles through six ATPase subunits (Rpt1‐Rpt6) individually binding to specific chaperones (Rpn14, Nas6, Nas2 and Hsm3). Here, our findings suggest that the onset of Rpt ring assembly can be regulated by two alternative mechanisms. Excess Rpt subunits relative to their chaperones are sequestered into multiple puncta specifically during early‐stage Rpt ring assembly. Sequestration occurs during stressed conditions, for example heat, which transcriptionally induce Rpt subunits. When the free Rpt pool is limited experimentally, Rpt subunits are competent for proteasome assembly even without their cognate chaperones. These data suggest that sequestration may regulate amounts of individual Rpt subunits relative to their chaperones, allowing for proper onset of Rpt ring assembly. Indeed, Rpt subunits in the puncta can later resume their assembly into the proteasome. Intriguingly, when proteasome assembly resumes in stressed cells or is ongoing in unstressed cells, excess Rpt subunits are recognized by an alternative mechanism—degradation by the proteasome holoenzyme itself. Rpt subunits undergo proteasome assembly until the holoenzyme complex is generated at a sufficient level. The fully‐formed holoenzyme can then degrade any remaining excess Rpt subunits, thereby regulating its own Rpt ring assembly. These two alternative mechanisms, degradation and sequestration of Rpt subunits, may help control the onset of chaperone‐mediated Rpt ring assembly, thereby promoting proper proteasome holoenzyme formation.","PeriodicalId":22447,"journal":{"name":"The FASEB Journal","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2020-04-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"141217342","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Siglec‐E is a member of sialic acid binding lectin predominantly expressed on myeloid cells to transduce inhibitory signal upon interacting with its ligands. Whether Siglec‐E expression on macrophages impacts foam cell formation and atherosclerosis remains to be established. To this end, both apoE‐deficient and apoE/Siglec‐E‐double deficient mice were placed on high fat diet for 3 months and their lipid profiles and severities of atherosclerosis were then assessed. The results showed that Siglec‐E deficiency accelerated atherosclerosis without affecting lipid profile in apoE deficient mice. In vitro experiments demonstrated that Siglec‐E deletion facilitated the uptake of acetylated or oxidized low density lipoprotein (LDL) and augmented foam cell formation in macrophages. By performing proximity labeling and proteomic analysis, we identified CD36 as a cell surface protein interacting with Siglec‐E. Notably, the interaction between Siglec‐E and CD36 was not affected by the sialylation status of CD36. Further experiments demonstrated that oxidized LDL induced transient Siglec‐E phosphorylation and recruitment of SHP‐1 in macrophages. VAV, a downstream effector implicated in CD36‐mediated oxidized LDL uptake, was shown to interact with SHP‐1 following oxidized LDL treatment. Moreover, Siglec‐E deficiency enhanced VAV phosphorylation induced by oxidized LDL. Collectively, these data demonstrate that Siglec‐E attenuates atherosclerosis in apoE‐deficient mice through suppressing CD36‐mediated signaling responsible for modified LDL uptake and foam cell formation in macrophages.","PeriodicalId":22447,"journal":{"name":"The FASEB Journal","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2020-04-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"141217810","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

This reactive metabolite is rapidly conjugated to glutathione via glyoxalase 1, generating lactoylglutathione (LGSH). LGSH is hydrolyzed by glyoxalase 2 (GLO2), cycling glutathione and generating D‐lactate. We have identified the non‐enzymatic acyl transfer of the lactate moiety from LGSH to protein Lys residues, generating a ‘LactoylLys’ modification on proteins. GLO2 knockout cells have elevated LGSH and consequently, a marked increase in LactoylLys.

The hypothesis that was addressed was that lycopene interferes with growth factor‐mediated signal transduction in prostate cancer cells. The effects of lycopene on PC‐3, a human prostate cancer cell line, were analyzed using proliferation assays, immunoblot analysis, and confocal microscopy. The growth factors used were lysophosphatidic acid (LPA) and epidermal growth factor (EGF). Lycopene (10 μM) inhibited LPA and EGF‐induced proliferation of PC‐3 cells, confirming previous unpublished results. Lycopene also inhibited activation of Akt in response to LPA and EGF as assessed by immunoblotting. Confocal immunofluorescence microscopy showed that the decrease in activated Akt was most prominent in the cell nucleus. These results confirm the ability of lycopene to inhibit growth factor response in human prostate cancer cells, and suggest new directions for future studies.","PeriodicalId":22447,"journal":{"name":"The FASEB Journal","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2020-04-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"89112038","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

In many cases this myelin is not repaired by myelinating oligodendrocytes, which decreases the efficiency of action potential conduction and leads to neural dysfunction. We hypothesized that a barrier preventing oligodendrocyte lineage cells from repairing damaged myelin is a fibrotic scar. Following CNS injury, a scar consisting of an outer glial scar made up of reactive astrocytes and an inner fibrotic scar made of proteins such as collagen I forms around the site of trauma. In MS the glial scar has also been characterized, but the presence of a fibrotic scar has not been investigated. I have shown that following induction of experimental autoimmune encephalomyelitis (EAE) in mice, which is used as a model of MS, an extensive fibrotic scar forms in the lesioned tissue. Scar‐forming cells were visualized in this tissue using a Col1a1GFP mouse model. The number of these cells increased rapidly in the lesion site following symptom onset and remained high throughout the course of the disease. Lineage tracing and single cell RNA sequencing determined that these cells arise from the proliferation of fibroblasts and not other cells such as pericytes turning on the production of collagen. The objective of this project is to determine the role of the fibrotic scar in tissue repair and to determine mechanisms of scar formation in the CNS. To determine the role of the fibrotic scar following EAE I used the herpes thymidine kinase system to ablate proliferating fibroblasts. Using this paradigm I was able to reduce scar formation by 60% in EAE and found that this reduction resulted in a decrease in motor symptoms in the later stages of disease concurrent with an increase in oligodendrocyte lineage cells in the inflammatory lesions. To understand the signaling pathways that play a role in CNS scar formation, I used FACS to purify Col1a1GFP+ fibroblasts from spinal cords of healthy mice and mice with EAE and analyzed their transcriptome by RNA sequencing. I found that these cells upregulate inflammatory signaling pathways in disease such as the interferon gamma pathway. Deleting the interferon gamma receptor in CNS fibroblasts resulted in a decrease in scar formation following EAE and may be a potential therapeutic target for CNS disorders with fibrotic scarring. In conclusion I identified a fibrotic scar forms following neuroinflammation that arises from the proliferation of CNS fibroblasts, plays a role in disease recovery and forms in part through interferon gamma signaling.","PeriodicalId":22447,"journal":{"name":"The FASEB Journal","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2020-04-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"141218789","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
