In this study, we reveal that the nucleolar polyglutamine binding protein 3 (PQBP3; also termed NOL7), which has been linked to polyQ neurodegenerative diseases, regulates senescence as a gatekeeper of cytoplasmic DNA leakage. PQBP3 directly binds PSME3 (proteasome activator complex subunit 3), a subunit of the 11S proteasome regulator complex, decreasing PSME3 interaction with Lamin B1 and thereby preventing Lamin B1 degradation and senescence. Depletion of endogenous PQBP3 causes nuclear membrane instability and release of genomic DNA from the nucleus to the cytosol. Among multiple tested polyQ proteins, ataxin-1 (ATXN1) partially sequesters PQBP3 to inclusion bodies, reducing nucleolar PQBP3 levels. Consistently, knock-in mice expressing mutant Atxn1 exhibit decreased nuclear PQBP3 and a senescence phenotype in Purkinje cells of the cerebellum.

Genetic inactivation of this pathway in DCs alleviates intestinal pathologies in mice suffering from colitis. Deficiency of RelB:p52 diminishes transcription of Axin1, a critical component of the β-catenin destruction complex, reinforcing β-catenin-dependent expression of Raldh2, which imparts tolerogenic DC attributes by promoting retinoic acid synthesis. DC-specific impairment of noncanonical NF-κB signaling leads to increased colonic numbers of Tregs and IgA+ B cells, which promote luminal IgA production and foster eubiosis. Experimentally introduced β-catenin haploinsufficiency in DCs with deficient noncanonical NF-κB signaling moderates Raldh2 activity, reinstating colitogenic sensitivity in mice. Finally, inflammatory bowel-disease patients also display a deleterious noncanonical NF-κB signaling signature in intestinal DCs.
