Phosphoproteomics and morphology of stored human red blood cells treated by protein tyrosine phosphatases inhibitor.

ABSTRACT:

Abstract

The process of protein phosphorylation is involved in numerous cell functions. In particular, phosphotyrosine (pY) has been reported to play a role in red blood cell (RBC) functions, including the cytoskeleton organization. During their storage before transfusion, RBCs suffer from storage lesions that affect their energy metabolism and morphology. This study investigated the relationship between pY and the storage lesions. To do so, RBCs were treated (in the absence of calcium) with a protein tyrosine phosphatase inhibitor (orthovanadate [OV]) to stimulate phosphorylation and with 3 selective kinase inhibitors (KIs). Erythrocyte membrane proteins were studied by western blot analyses and phosphoproteomics (data are available via ProteomeXchange with identifier PXD039914) and cell morphology by digital holographic microscopy. The increase of pY triggered by OV treatment (inducing a global downregulation of pS and pT) disappeared during the storage. Phosphoproteomic analysis identified 609 phosphoproteins containing 1752 phosphosites, of which 41 pY were upregulated and 2 downregulated by OV. After these phosphorylation processes, the shape of RBCs shifted from discocytes to spherocytes, and the addition of KIs partially inhibited this transition. The KIs modulated either pY or pS and pT via diverse mechanisms related to cell shape, thereby affecting RBC morphology. The capacity of RBCs to maintain their function is central in transfusion medicine, and the presented results contribute to a better understanding of RBC biology.

Project description:Changes in red blood cell (RBC) morphology distribution have emerged as a quantitative biomarker for the degradation of RBC functional properties during hypothermic storage. Previously published automated methods for classifying the morphology of stored RBCs often had insufficient accuracy and relied on proprietary code and datasets, making them difficult to use in many research and clinical applications. Here we describe the development and validation of a highly accurate open-source RBC morphology classification pipeline based on ensemble deep learning (DL). The DL-enabled pipeline utilized adaptive thresholding or semantic segmentation for RBC identification, a deep ensemble of four convolutional neural networks (CNNs) to classify RBC morphology, and Kalman filtering with Hungarian assignment for tracking changes in the morphology of individual RBCs over time. The ensembled CNNs were trained and evaluated on thousands of individual RBCs from two open-access datasets previously collected to quantify the morphological heterogeneity and washing-induced shape recovery of stored RBCs. Confusion matrices and reliability diagrams demonstrated under-confidence of the constituent models and an accuracy of about 98% for the deep ensemble. Such a high accuracy allowed the CNN ensemble to uncover new insights over our previously published studies. Re-analysis of the datasets yielded much more accurate distributions of the effective diameters of stored RBCs at each stage of morphological degradation (discocyte: 7.821 ± 0.429 µm, echinocyte 1: 7.800 ± 0.581 µm, echinocyte 2: 7.304 ± 0.567 µm, echinocyte 3: 6.433 ± 0.490 µm, sphero-echinocyte: 5.963 ± 0.348 µm, spherocyte: 5.904 ± 0.292 µm, stomatocyte: 7.080 ± 0.522 µm). The effective diameter distributions were significantly different across all morphologies, with considerable effect sizes for non-neighboring classes. A combination of morphology classification with cell tracking enabled the discovery of a relatively rare and previously overlooked shape recovery of some sphero-echinocytes to early-stage echinocytes after washing with 1% human serum albumin solution. Finally, the datasets and code have been made freely available online to enable replication, further improvement, and adaptation of our work for other applications.

Project description:Mutations in the Epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) kinase domain, such as the L858R missense mutation and deletions spanning the conserved sequence 747LREA750, are sensitive to tyrosine kinase inhibitors (TKIs). The gatekeeper site residue mutation, T790M accounts for around 60% of acquired resistance to EGFR TKIs. The first generation EGFR TKIs, erlotinib and gefitinib, and the second generation inhibitor, afatinib are FDA approved for initial treatment of EGFR mutated lung adenocarcinoma. The predominant biomarker of EGFR TKI responsiveness is the presence of EGFR TKI-sensitizing mutations. However, 30-40% of patients with EGFR mutations exhibit primary resistance to these TKIs, underscoring the unmet need of identifying additional biomarkers of treatment response. Here, we sought to characterize the dynamics of tyrosine phosphorylation upon EGFR TKI treatment of mutant EGFR-driven human lung adenocarcinoma cell lines with varying sensitivity to EGFR TKIs, erlotinib and afatinib. We employed stable isotope labeling with amino acids in cell culture (SILAC)-based quantitative mass spectrometry to identify and quantify tyrosine phosphorylated peptides. The proportion of tyrosine phosphorylated sites that had reduced phosphorylation upon erlotinib or afatinib treatment correlated with the degree of TKI-sensitivity. Afatinib, an irreversible EGFR TKI, more effectively inhibited tyrosine phosphorylation of a majority of the substrates. The phosphosites with phosphorylation SILAC ratios that correlated with the TKI-sensitivity of the cell lines include sites on kinases, such as EGFR-Y1197 and MAPK7-Y221, and adaptor proteins, such as SHC1-Y349/350, ERRFI1-Y394, GAB1-Y689, STAT5A-Y694, DLG3-Y705, and DAPP1-Y139, suggesting these are potential biomarkers of TKI sensitivity. DAPP1, is a novel target of mutant EGFR signaling and Y-139 is the major site of DAPP1 tyrosine phosphorylation. We also uncovered several off-target effects of these TKIs, such as MST1R-Y1238/Y1239 and MET-Y1252/1253. This study provides unique insight into the TKI-mediated modulation of mutant EGFR signaling, which can be applied to the development of biomarkers of EGFR TKI response.
