Knockout of c-Cbl/Cbl-b slows c-Met trafficking resulting in enhanced signaling in corneal epithelial cells.
In many cell types, the E3 ubiquitin ligases c-Cbl and Cbl-b induce ligand-dependent ubiquitylation of the hepatocyte growth factor (HGF)-stimulated c-Met receptor and target it for lysosomal degradation. This study determines whether c-Cbl/Cbl-b are negative regulators of c-Met in the corneal epithelium (CE) and if their inhibition can augment c-Met-mediated CE homeostasis. Immortalized human corneal epithelial cells were transfected with Cas9 only (Cas9, control cells) or with Cas9 and c-Cbl/Cbl-b guide RNAs to knockout each gene singularly (-c-Cbl or -Cbl-b cells) or both genes (double KO [DKO] cells) and monitored for their responses to HGF. Cells were assessed for ligand-dependent c-Met ubiquitylation via immunoprecipitation, magnitude, and duration of c-Met receptor signaling via immunoblot and receptor trafficking by immunofluorescence. Single KO cells displayed a decrease in receptor ubiquitylation and an increase in phosphorylation compared to control. DKO cells had no detectable ubiquitylation, had delayed receptor trafficking, and a 2.3-fold increase in c-Met phosphorylation. Based on the observed changes in receptor trafficking and signaling, we examined HGF-dependent in vitro wound healing via live-cell time-lapse microscopy in control and DKO cells. HGF-treated DKO cells healed at approximately twice the rate of untreated cells. From these data, we have generated a model in which c-Cbl/Cbl-b mediate the ubiquitylation of c-Met, which targets the receptor through the endocytic pathway toward lysosomal degradation. In the absence of ubiquitylation, the stimulated receptor stays phosphorylated longer and enhances in vitro wound healing. We propose that c-Cbl and Cbl-b are promising pharmacologic targets for enhancing c-Met-mediated CE re-epithelialization.
