Identification of Nrf2 regulated genes by RNA sequencing

ABSTRACT: The transcription factor Nuclear factor (erythroid-derived 2)-like 2 (Nrf2) is activated by the metabolite itaconate during metabolic reprogramming. Activated Nrf2 then dampens the release of pro-inflammatory cytokines and type I IFNs in response to toll-like receptor stimulation. If and how Nrf2 affects cytosolic antiviral sensing and whether this occurs during metabolic reprogramming is currently not known. Here, we show that Nrf2 is a negative regulator of the adaptor molecule STimulator of INterferon Genes (STING), which signals downstream of the cytosolic DNA sensor cyclic GMP-AMP synthase (cGAS). The regulation of STING by Nrf2 was inducible by the metabolite itaconate, specific to human cells, and sufficient to decrease the responsiveness to STING agonists and to increase the susceptibility to infection with DNA viruses. Mechanistically, Nrf2 regulated STING expression post-transcriptionally by increasing STING mRNA stability. Lastly, treatment with itaconate or with the chemical Nrf2 inducer sulforaphane repressed STING expression and the release of type I IFNs in cells from patients with the STING dependent interferonopathy SAVI. With this report we identify Nrf2 as an important regulator of cGAS-STING signaling pathway and link metabolic reprogramming to control of cytosolic DNA sensing.

The cGAS-STING pathway is dispensable in a mouse model of LMNA-cardiomyopathy despite nuclear envelope rupture [SLAM-IT-seq]

Project description:Mutations in LMNA, encoding the nuclear lamina protein Lamin A/C, cause malignant dilated cardiomyopathy. A prevailing hypothesis postulates that LMNA mutations cause nuclear envelope ruptures that trigger pathogenic inflammation via the cGAS-STING cytosolic DNA-sensing pathway. Our study suggests that adult mouse cardiomyocytes are unable to activate the cGAS-STING pathway in response to nuclear envelope rupture and proposes that the cGAS-STING pathway is not a pathogenetic component of LMNA-related dilated cardiomyopathy in adult humans. The aim of this project is to investigate the contribution of the cGAS-STING cytosolic DNA-sensing pathway to a mouse model of LMNA-related dilated cardiomyopathy accompanied by nuclear envelope rupture.

Gene expression profiles in BMDM cells of Trex1-KO and wild-type mice after treatment of STING antagonists

Project description:Mounting evidence demonstrates that cGAS-STING signaling is the major pathway in sensing cytosolic DNAs. However, aberrant accumulation of self DNA molecules in Trex1 (a 3'-to-5' DNA exonuclease) deficient cells usually causes over-activation of cGAS-STING signaling, which is associated with the pathology of several autoimmune diseases. Here, we investigated gene expression changes in BMDM cells of Trex1 knockout mice after manipulating cGAS-STING signaling activity via treatment of two STING antagonists (SN-011 and H151) .

Loss of MEF2A induces replicative stress responses that trigger IFN production

Project description:Interferons (IFN) are induced by sensing of self and non-self RNA or DNA by pathogen recognition receptors. In particular, the aberrant accumulation of cytosolic nucleic acids or the accumulation of DNA lesions has the potential to activate the STING pathway to induce IFNs. While aberrant self-DNA sensing can cause autoimmunity, negative regulators keep these under check. Here we report that MEF2A is a novel negative regulator of inflammation which suppresses the induction of IFNs at homeostasis. We show that MEF2A deficiency results in the spontaneous induction of type I IFN and robust downstream ISG expression in a STING-dependent and cGAS-independent manner. We demonstrate that the IFN response elicited by MEF2A depletion could protect cells from cardiotropic virus infections. We found that the loss of MEF2A triggered the replicative stress response to promote a DDX41/STING-dependent induction type I IFN response. The replicative stress response is dependent on ATR kinase activity, as inhibition of ATR abrogated STING activation and type I IFN production. Thus, our study connects MEF2A with protection from maladaptive type I IFN responses due to replicative stress response across various cell types as well as links the DDX41-dependent activation of STING to the replicative stress response.

CT26 sorted in vivo tumor cells with Trex1 KO

Project description:The DNA exonuclease TREX1 degrades endogenous cytosolic DNA. Cytosolic DNA triggers the cGAS/STING pathway which increases type I interferon. To investigate the physiological significance of TREX1 loss on in vivo tumor growth, we implanted control and TREX1-deficient CT26 tumor cells into immunocompetent BALB/c hosts.Tumor cells were collected 7 days after tumors reached around 200mm3.

Innate immune sensing of cytosolic chromatin fragments through cGAS promotes senescence

Project description:Cellular senescence is triggered by various distinct stresses and characterized by a permanent cell cycle arrest. Senescent cells secrete a variety of inflammatory factors, collectively referred to as the senescence-associated secretory phenotype (SASP). The mechanism(s) underlying the regulation of the SASP remains incompletely understood. Here we define a role for innate DNA sensing in the regulation of senescence and the SASP. We find that cyclic GMP-AMP synthase (cGAS) recognizes cytosolic chromatin fragments (CCFs) in senescent cells. The activation of cGAS, in turn triggers the production of SASP factors via Stimulator of interferon genes (STING), thereby promoting paracrine senescence. We demonstrate that diverse stimuli of cellular senescence engage the cGAS-STING pathway in vitro and we show cGAS-dependent regulation of senescence upon irradiation and oncogene activation in vivo. Our findings provide insights into the mechanisms underlying cellular senescence by establishing the cGAS-STING pathway as a crucial regulator of senescence and the SASP.

The Cardiac Endothelial Cell cGAS-STING Pathway Promotes Doxorubicin-Induced Cardiotoxicity via CD38-Mediated NAD Decline and Mitochondrial Dysfunction [mouse]

Project description:Doxorubicin is an effective chemotherapy drug for treating various types of cancer. However, lethal cardiotoxicity severely limits its clinical use. Recent evidence has indicated that aberrant activation of the cytosolic DNA-sensing cyclic GMP-AMP synthase (cGAS)-stimulator of interferon genes (STING) pathway plays a critical role in cardiovascular destruction. Here, we investigate the involvement of this mechanism in doxorubicin-induced cardiotoxicity (DIC).

cGAS/STING drives ageing-related inflammation and neurodegeneration I

Project description:Low-grade inflammation is a hallmark of old age and a central driver of ageing-associated impairment and disease. Multiple factors can contribute to ageing-associated inflammation, however the molecular pathways transducing aberrant inflammatory signalling and their impact in natural ageing remain poorly understood. Here we show that the cGAS-STING signalling pathway, mediating immune sensing of DNA, is a critical driver of chronic inflammation and functional decline during ageing. Blockade of STING suppresses the inflammatory phenotypes of senescent human cells and tissues, attenuates ageing-related inflammation in multiple peripheral organs and the brain in mice, and leads to an improvement in tissue function. Focusing on the ageing brain, we reveal that activation of STING triggers reactive microglia transcriptional states, neurodegeneration and cognitive decline. Cytosolic DNA released from perturbed mitochondria elicits cGAS activity in old microglia defining a mechanism by which cGAS-STING signalling is engaged in the ageing brain. Single-nuclei RNA-sequencing (snRNA-seq) of microglia and hippocampi of a newly developed cGAS gain-of-function mouse model demonstrates that engagement of cGAS in microglia is sufficient to direct ageing-associated transcriptional microglia states leading to bystander cell inflammation, neurotoxicity and impaired memory capacity. Our findings establish the cGAS-STING pathway as a critical driver of ageing-related inflammation in peripheral organs and the brain, and reveal blockade of cGAS-STING signalling as a potential strategy to halt (neuro)degenerative processes during old age.
