Dynamic changes in O-GlcNAcylation regulate osteoclast differentiation and bone loss via nucleoporin 153.

ABSTRACT: Bone mass is maintained by the balance between osteoclast-induced bone resorption and osteoblast-triggered bone formation. In inflammatory arthritis such as rheumatoid arthritis (RA), however, increased osteoclast differentiation and activity skew this balance resulting in progressive bone loss. O-GlcNAcylation is a posttranslational modification with attachment of a single O-linked β-D-N-acetylglucosamine (O-GlcNAc) residue to serine or threonine residues of target proteins. Although O-GlcNAcylation is one of the most common protein modifications, its role in bone homeostasis has not been systematically investigated. We demonstrate that dynamic changes in O-GlcNAcylation are required for osteoclastogenesis. Increased O-GlcNAcylation promotes osteoclast differentiation during the early stages, whereas its downregulation is required for osteoclast maturation. At the molecular level, O-GlcNAcylation affects several pathways including oxidative phosphorylation and cell-cell fusion. TNFα fosters the dynamic regulation of O-GlcNAcylation to promote osteoclastogenesis in inflammatory arthritis. Targeted pharmaceutical or genetic inhibition of O-GlcNAc transferase (OGT) or O-GlcNAcase (OGA) arrests osteoclast differentiation during early stages of differentiation and during later maturation, respectively, and ameliorates bone loss in experimental arthritis. Knockdown of NUP153, an O-GlcNAcylation target, has similar effects as OGT inhibition and inhibits osteoclastogenesis. These findings highlight an important role of O-GlcNAcylation in osteoclastogenesis and may offer the potential to therapeutically interfere with pathologic bone resorption.

Project description:ObjectiveDonepezil, an inhibitor of acetylcholinesterase (AChE) targeting the brain, is a common medication for Alzheimer's disease. Interestingly, a recent clinical study found that administration of this agent is associated with lower risk of hip fracture independently of falling, suggesting its direct effect on bone tissues as well. AChE has been reported to be involved in osteoblast function, but the role of AChE on osteoclastogenesis still remains unclear. We analyzed the effect of AChE and donepezil on osteoclastogenesis in vivo and in vitro.MethodsCell-based assays were conducted using osteoclasts generated in cultures of murine bone marrow macrophages (BMMs) with receptor activator of nuclear factor-kappa B ligand (RANKL). The effect of donepezil was also determined in vivo using a mouse model of RANKL-induced bone loss.ResultsRecombinant AChE in BMMs cultured with RANKL further promoted RANKL-induced tartrate-resistant acid phosphatase (TRAP)-positive osteoclast differentiation. RANKL also upregulated AChE expression in BMMs. RNA interference-mediated knockdown of AChE significantly inhibited RANKL-induced osteoclast differentiation and suppressed gene expression specific for osteoclasts. AChE upregulated expression of RANK, the receptor of RANKL, in BMMs. Donepezil decreased cathepsin K expression in BMMs and the resorptive function of osteoclasts on dentine slices. Donepezil decreased RANK expression in BMMs, resulting in the inhibition of osteoclast differentiation with downregulation of c-Fos and upregulation of Id2. Moreover, administration of donepezil prevented RANKL-induced bone loss in vivo, which was associated with the inhibition of bone resorption by osteoclasts.ConclusionsAChE promotes osteoclast differentiation in vitro. Donepezil inhibits osteoclast function in vitro and prevents bone loss by suppressing bone resorption in vivo, suggesting the possibility that donepezil reduces fracture risk in patients with Alzheimer's disease.

Project description:The interaction between the HIV-1 capsid and human nucleoporin 153 (NUP153) is vital for delivering the HIV-1 preintegration complex into the nucleus via the nuclear pore complex. The interaction with the capsid requires a phenylalanine/glycine-containing motif in the C-terminus of NUP153 (NUP153C). This study used molecular modeling and biochemical assays to comprehensively determine the amino acids in NUP153 that are important for capsid interaction. Molecular dynamics, FoldX, and PyRosetta simulations delineated the minimal capsid binding motif of NUP153 based on the known structure of NUP153 bound to the HIV-1 capsid hexamer. Computational predictions were experimentally validated by testing the interaction of NUP153 with capsid using an in vitro binding assay and a cell-based TRIM-NUP153C restriction assay. This work identified eight amino acids from P1411 to G1418 that stably engage with capsid, with significant correlations between the interactions predicted by molecular models and empirical experiments. This validated the usefulness of this multidisciplinary approach to rapidly characterize the interaction between human proteins and the HIV-1 capsid. IMPORTANCE The human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) can infect nondividing cells by interacting with the host nuclear pore complex. The host nuclear pore protein NUP153 directly interacts with the HIV capsid to promote viral nuclear entry. This study used a multidisciplinary approach combining computational and experimental techniques to comprehensively map the effect of mutating the amino acids of NUP153 on HIV capsid interaction. This work showed a significant correlation between computational and empirical data sets, revealing that the HIV capsid interacted specifically with only six amino acids of NUP153. The simplicity of the interaction motif suggested other FG-containing motifs could also interact with the HIV-1 capsid. Furthermore, it was predicted that naturally occurring polymorphisms in human and nonhuman primates would disrupt NUP153 interaction with capsid, potentially protecting certain populations from HIV-1 infection.
