Ubiquitination is a crucial protein modification to regulate entry in these two pathways. However, the function of deubiquitinases (DUBs) in the UPS and autophagy remains largely unclear. The Leon/USP5 deubiquitinase is essential for maintaining ubiquitin homeostasis and proteasome function. In our recent study, we found that Leon/USP5 depletion resulted in the induction of autophagosome formation and an enhancement of the autophagic flux. Additionally, a genetic analysis in Drosophila revealed that Leon overexpression suppressed Atg1-induced cell death. We further showed that Leon/USP5 interacts with the autophagy initiator Atg1/ULK1, regulating its levels and thus modulating autophagosome formation. These findings suggest that Leon/USP5 plays a dual role in regulation of UPS and autophagy.","PeriodicalId":72341,"journal":{"name":"Autophagy reports","volume":" 21","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-11-09","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"135242848","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}

Remarkably, enhancing autophagy is sufficient to trigger intracellular Mtb killing and effective immune response, making this process a valid target of host-directed therapies. However, several aspects of autophagy regulation during Mtb infection remain unsolved. Tripartite motif (TRIM) proteins are a large family of ubiquitin ligases primarily involved in innate immunity by regulating inflammation and autophagy. By combining transcriptomic and infectivity screens, we recently identified a set of TRIMs that modulate Mtb replication. In detail, overexpression of TRIM22 and TRIM32 reduces Mtb growth in THP1 macrophages, while that of TRIM36 and TRIM56 promotes Mtb replication. Analysis of the molecular mechanisms underlying inhibition of Mtb replication by TRIM32 showed that its overexpression promote xenophagy, a selective autophagy of pathogens, by increasing Mtb ubiquitination and the recruitment of CALCOCO2/NDP52 (calcium binding and coiled-coil domain 2) and MAP1LC3B (microtubule-associated protein 1 light chain 3B) to intracellular bacteria. Consistently, TRIM32 downregulation reduces the xenophagic response, resulting in increased Mtb replication. Altogether, we characterized a novel role for TRIM32 in the host response to pathogen infections and identify TRIM36 and TRIM56 as possible host factors required for Mtb infection.","PeriodicalId":72341,"journal":{"name":"Autophagy reports","volume":"61 10","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-11-05","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"135726256","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}

Our study found that MTFP1 contains a LIR (LC3-interacting region) to interact with MAP1LC3B (microtubule-associated protein 1 light chain 3 beta) and serves as a mitophagy receptor to eliminate damaged mitochondria. Interestingly, mutation of MTFP1 LIR motif (MTFP1mLIR) inhibits this interaction, decreasing mitophagy in oral cancer cells. Moreover, knockdown of PRKN (parkin RBR E3 ubiquitin protein ligase) or PINK1 (PTEN-induced kinase 1) abolished mitophagy in MTFP1-overexpressing oral cancer cells. In this setting, we observed that MTFP1mLIR-expressing cells display a decrease in TOMM20 (translocase of outer mitochondrial membrane 20) levels without affecting those of COX4 (cytochrome c oxidase subunit 4). In contrast, loss of PRKN or PINK1 caused inhibition of both TOMM20 and COX4 degradation in MTFP1mLIR-expressing cells exposed to cellular stress, suggesting that PRKN may activate the rupture of outer mitochondrial membrane in MTFP1-overexpressing cells for effective mitophagy. We also observed that MTFP1 is beneficial to oral cancer cell survival exposed to anticancer drugs, such as cisplatin, through mitophagy, since inhibition of MTFP1-dependent mitophagy induced cell death. Thus, targeting MTFP1-associated mitophagy could represent a strategy for oral cancer therapy.","PeriodicalId":72341,"journal":{"name":"Autophagy reports","volume":"86 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-10-16","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"136142802","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}

The last one depends on tight junctions, particularly on claudins, the family of integral membrane proteins responsible for the permeability and selectivity of these junctions. 300 nM ouabain (OUA) induces endocytosis and lysosomal degradation of claudin-2 and -4 in an Src and ERK1/2 kinases-dependent manner. Here we investigate whether OUA-induced lysosomal degradation of claudins implicates autophagy in renal epithelial Madin-Darby canine kidney cells. During autophagy, LC3 protein binds phosphatidylethanolamine and incorporates, together with protein p62, into the phagophore. Subsequently, the autolysosome degrades both LC3 and p62 proteins. OUA’s occupancy of its site in the Na⁺/K⁺ATPase (300 nM, 10 h) increases autophagic flux because of degradation of LC3 and p62 and an increase in the number of autophagosomes, as detected by fluorescent LC3 and p62 puncta and the rise in autolysosomes seen by the GFP-LC3-RFP probe. Finally, OUA increases the colocalisation of claudin-1, -2, or -4 with p62 in these puncta. OUA induces autophagy increasing reactive oxygen species generation that activates AMP-activated protein kinase, phosphorylating ULK1 at S555. The autophagy inducer rapamycin causes a degradation of the studied claudins comparable to the one generated by OUA. Furthermore, the autophagy inhibitor dorsomorphin blocks OUA-induced autophagy and claudin-1, -2, and -4 degradation. These results demonstrated that OUA induces claudin-1, -2, and -4 autophagy through oxidative stress.","PeriodicalId":72341,"journal":{"name":"Autophagy reports","volume":"97 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-10-02","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"135899242","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}

To date, the mechanisms underlying anti-malarial immunity have not been elucidated. We recently identified INPP5D as a negative regulator of IFN-I (type I interferon) signaling by promoting autophagic degradation of IRF3 (interferon regulatory factor 3) during malaria infection. Mechanistically, INPP5D enhances the association between IRF3 and the autophagy receptor CALCOCO2/NDP52 (calcium binding and coiled-coil domain 2), which promotes the K63-linked ubiquitination of IRF3 at K313 and serves as a signal for CALCOCO2-dependent selective macroautophagy (hereafter autophagy). Moreover, INPP5D is downregulated by IFN-I-induced miR-155-5p after Plasmodium yoelii (P. yoelii) nigeriensis N67 infection and plays a role as a feedback loop between IFN-I signaling and autophagy. Thus, our study reveals the key role of INPP5D in mediating the crosstalk between IFN-I response and autophagy during anti-malarial immune responses, and suggests that INPP5D may be a potential therapeutic target to control malaria.","PeriodicalId":72341,"journal":{"name":"Autophagy reports","volume":"22 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-09-18","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"135203607","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}

However, its possible role in other anti-bacterial autophagic mechanisms remains unknown. Recently, LC3-associated phagocytosis (LAP) has emerged as autophagy-related mechanism that targets bacteria directly in phagosomes. Our previous work established LAP as the main autophagic mechanism by which macrophages restrict growth of Salmonella Typhimurium in a systemically infected zebrafish host. We therefore employed this infection model to investigate the possible role of Dram1 in LAP. Morpholino knockdown or CRISPR/Cas9-mediated mutation of Dram1 led to reduced host survival and increased bacterial burden during S. Typhimurium infection. In contrast, overexpression of dram1 by mRNA injection curtailed Salmonella replication and reduced mortality of the infected host. During the early response to infection, GFP-Lc3-Salmonella associations were reduced in dram1 knockdown or mutant embryos, and increased by dram1 overexpression. Since LAP is known to require the activity of the phagosomal NADPH oxidase, we used a Salmonella biosensor strain to detect bacterial exposure to reactive oxygen species (ROS) and found that the ROS response was largely abolished with deficiency of dram1, while it was increased with dram1 overexpression. Corroborating these results in a mammalian model, the LC3 and ROS responses to Salmonella were similarly reduced or increased by knockdown or overexpression of Dram1, respectively, in murine RAW264.7 macrophages. Together, these results demonstrate the host protective role of Dram1/DRAM1 during S. Typhimurium infection and suggest a functional link between Dram1/DRAM1 and the induction of LAP.Abbreviations: ATG8: Autophagy related protein 8; ATG16: Autophagy related protein 16; CFU: colony-forming unit; DRAM1: DNA damage regulated autophagy modulator gene 1; dpf: days post fertilization; GFP: green fluorescent protein; hpi: hours post infection; LAP: LC3 associated phagocytosis; LC3, microtubule-associated protein 1 light chain 3; NADPH: Nicotinamide dinucleotide phosphate; p53: Tumor suppressor protein 53: ROS; reactive oxygen species; S.
