Disrupting N-Glycosylation Using Type I Mannosidase Inhibitors Alters B-Cell Receptor Signaling.

ABSTRACT: Kifunensine is a known inhibitor of type I α-mannosidase enzymes and has been shown to have therapeutic potential for a variety of diseases and application in the expression of high-mannose N-glycan bearing glycoproteins; however, the compound's hydrophilic nature limits its efficacy. We previously synthesized two hydrophobic acylated derivatives of kifunensine, namely, JDW-II-004 and JDW-II-010, and found that these compounds were over 75-fold more potent than kifunensine. Here we explored the effects of these compounds on different mice and human B cells, and we demonstrate that they affected the cells in a similar fashion to kifunensine, further demonstrating their functional equivalence to kifunensine in assays utilizing primary cells. Specifically, a dose-dependent increase in the formation of high-mannose N-glycans decorated glycoproteins were observed upon treatment with kifunensine, JDW-II-004, and JDW-II-010, but greater potency was observed with the acylated derivatives. Treatment with kifunensine or the acylated derivatives also resulted in impaired B-cell receptor (BCR) signaling of the primary mouse B cells; however, primary human B cells treated with kifunensine or JDW-II-004 did not affect BCR signaling, while a modest increase in BCR signaling was observed upon treatment with JDW-010. Nevertheless, these findings demonstrate that the hydrophobic acylated derivatives of kifunensine can help overcome the mass-transfer limitations of the parent compound, and they may have applications for the treatment of ERAD-related diseases or prove to be more cost-effective alternatives for the generation and production of high-mannose N-glycan bearing glycoproteins.

Project description:Glucocorticoid signaling plays a critical role in regulating energy metabolism. Emerging data implicate environmental endocrine-disrupting chemicals as contributors to the obesity and diabetes epidemics. Previous studies have shown that the phenylsulfamide fungicide tolylfluanid (TF) augments glucocorticoid receptor (GR)-dependent luciferase expression in 3T3-L1 preadipocytes while modulating insulin action in primary murine and human adipocytes. Studies were performed to interrogate glucocorticoid signaling in primary adipocytes exposed to TF. TF mimicked the gene transcription profile of the murine glucocorticoid corticosterone (Cort). Cellular fractionation assays demonstrated that TF treatment promoted the activating serine phosphorylation of GR, augmenting its cytoplasmic-to-nuclear translocation as well as its enrichment at glucocorticoid response elements on the glucocorticoid-induced leucine zipper gene promoter. After acute treatment, Cort or TF promoted insulin receptor substrate-1 (IRS-1) gene and protein expression. Either treatment also enriched GR binding at an identified glucocorticoid response element in the IRS-1 gene. TF or Cort each increased insulin-stimulated lipogenesis, an effect resulting from increased lipogenic gene expression and enhanced insulin-stimulated dephosphorylation of acetyl-coenzyme A carboxylase. The augmentation of insulin-stimulated lipogenesis was mediated through a specific enhancement of Akt phosphorylation at T308. These findings support modulation of IRS-1 levels as a mechanism for glucocorticoid-mediated changes in insulin action in primary adipocytes. Albeit with less affinity than Cort, in silico analysis suggests that TF can interact with the ligand binding pocket of GR. Collectively, these studies identify TF as a structurally unique environmental glucocorticoid. Glucocorticoid signaling may thus represent a novel pathway by which environmental toxicants promote the development of metabolic diseases.
