Cab45S inhibits the ER stress-induced IRE1-JNK pathway and apoptosis via GRP78/BiP.

ABSTRACT: Disturbance of endoplasmic reticulum (ER) homeostasis causes ER stress and leads to activation of the unfolded protein response, which reduces the stress and promotes cell survival at the early stage of stress, or triggers cell death and apoptosis when homeostasis is not restored under prolonged ER stress. Here, we report that Cab45S, a member of the CREC family, inhibits ER stress-induced apoptosis. Depletion of Cab45S increases inositol-requiring kinase 1 (IRE1) activity, thus producing more spliced forms of X-box-binding protein 1 mRNA at the early stage of stress and leads to phosphorylation of c-Jun N-terminal kinase, which finally induces apoptosis. Furthermore, we find that Cab45S specifically interacts with 78-kDa glucose-regulated protein/immunoglobulin heavy chain binding protein (GRP78/BiP) on its nucleotide-binding domain. Cab45S enhances GRP78/BiP protein level and stabilizes the interaction of GRP78/BiP with IRE1 to inhibit ER stress-induced IRE1 activation and apoptosis. Together, Cab45S, a novel regulator of GRP78/BiP, suppresses ER stress-induced IRE1 activation and apoptosis by binding to and elevating GRP78/BiP, and has a role in the inhibition of ER stress-induced apoptosis.

Project description:Cassiae Semen is a widely used herbal medicine and a popular edible variety in many dietary or health beverage. Emerging evidence disclosed that improper administration of Cassiae Semen could induce obvious liver injury, which is possibly attributed to emodin, one of the bioactive anthraquinone compounds in Cassiae Semen, which caused hepatotoxicity, but the underlying mechanisms are not completely understood. Hence, the present study firstly explored the possible role of oxidative stress-mediated mitochondrial dysfunction and ER stress in emodin-cause apoptosis of L02 cells, aiming to elaborate possible toxic mechanisms involved in emodin-induced hepatotoxicity. Our results showed that emodin-induced ROS activated ER stress and the UPR via the BiP/IRE1α/CHOP signaling pathway, followed by ER Ca2+ release and cytoplasmic Ca2+ overloading. At the same time, emodin-caused redox imbalance increased mtROS while decreased MMP and mitochondrial function, resulting in the leaks of mitochondrial-related proapoptotic factors. Interestingly, blocking Ca2+ release from ER by 2-APB could inhibit emodin-induced apoptosis of L02, but the restored mitochondrial function did not reduce the apoptosis rates of emodin-treated cells. Besides, tunicamycin (TM) and doxorubicin (DOX) were used to activate ER stress and mitochondrial injury at a dosage where obvious apoptosis was not observed, respectively. We found that cotreatment with TM and DOX significantly induced apoptosis of L02 cells. Thus, all the results indicated that emodin-induced excessive ROS generation and redox imbalance promoted apoptosis, which was mainly associated with BiP/IRE1α/CHOP signaling-mediated ER stress and would be enhanced by oxidative stress-mediated mitochondrial dysfunction. Altogether, this finding has implicated that redox imbalance-mediated ER stress could be an alternative target for the treatment of Cassiae Semen or other medicine-food homologous varieties containing emodin-induced liver injury.
