IRE1α-XBP1 signaling in leukocytes controls prostaglandin biosynthesis and pain

ABSTRACT: The IRE1α-XBP1 arm of the unfolded protein response (UPR) maintains endoplasmic reticulum (ER) homeostasis, but also controls UPR-independent processes such as cytokine production and lipid metabolism. Yet, the physiological consequences of IRE1α-XBP1 activation in immune cells remain largely unexplored. Here, we report that leukocyte-intrinsic IRE1α-XBP1 signaling drives prostaglandin biosynthesis and pain. Transcriptomic analyses revealed that induction of prostaglandin-endoperoxide synthase 2 (Ptgs2/Cox-2) and prostaglandin E synthase (Ptges/mPGES-1) was compromised in IRE1α-deficient myeloid cells undergoing ER stress or stimulated via pattern recognition receptors. Inducible biosynthesis of prostaglandins, including PGE2, was markedly decreased in myeloid cells lacking IRE1α or XBP1, but not altered in the absence of the two other ER stress sensors PERK and ATF6. Mechanistically, IRE1α-activated XBP1 bound to and directly induced the expression of human PTGS2 and PTGES to enable PGE2 generation. Mice selectively lacking IRE1α-XBP1 in leukocytes, or treated with pharmacological IRE1α inhibitors, failed to induce PGE2 upon challenge with inflammatory stimuli and demonstrated reduced behavioral pain responses in PGE2-dependent models of pain. Our study uncovers an unexpected role for IRE1α-XBP1 as a key mediator of prostaglandin biosynthesis and indicates that targeting this pathway may represent an alternative approach to control pain.

The IRE1α/XBP1 pathway expression is impaired in pediatric cholestatic liver disease explants

Project description:Background/Aims: Cholestatic liver diseases (CLD) are the leading indication for pediatric liver transplantation. Increased intrahepatic bile acid concentrations cause endoplasmic reticulum (ER) stress and the unfolded protein response (UPR) is activated to maintain homeostasis. UPR dysregulation, including the inositol-requiring enzyme 1α/X-box protein 1 (IRE1α/XBP1) pathway, is associated with several adult liver diseases. We evaluated hepatic UPR expression in pediatric patients with end-stage CLD and hypothesize that an inability to appropriately activate the hepatic IRE1α/XBP1 pathway is associated with the pathogenesis of CLD. Methods: We evaluated 34 human liver explants. Cohorts included: pediatric CLD (Alagille, ALGS, and progressive familial intrahepatic cholestasis, PFIC), pediatric non-cholestatic liver disease controls (autoimmune hepatitis, AIH), adult CLD, and normal controls. We performed RNA-seq, quantitative PCR, and western blotting to measure expression differences of the hepatic UPR and other signaling pathways. Results: Metascape pathway analysis demonstrated that the KEGG ‘protein processing in ER’ pathway was downregulated in pediatric CLD compared to normal controls. Pediatric CLD had decreased hepatic IRE1α/XBP1 pathway gene expression and decreased protein expression of p-IRE1α compared to normal controls. These CLD changes were not disease-specific to ALGS or PFIC. IRE1α/XBP1 pathway gene expression was decreased in pediatric CLD compared to AIH disease controls. Conclusion: Pediatric CLD explants have decreased gene and protein expression of the protective IRE1α/XBP1 pathway and down-regulated KEGG protein processing in the ER pathways. IRE1α/XBP1 pathway expression differences occur when compared to both normal and non-cholestatic disease controls. Attenuated expression of the IRE1α/XBP1 pathway is associated with cholestatic diseases and could be targeted to treat pediatric CLD.

Dual role of the unfolded protein response in the therapeutic effect of AZD1775 on TP53 mutant high grade serous ovarian cancer

Project description:we demonstrate that the WEE1 inhibitor AZD1775 triggers endoplasmic reticulum (ER) stress and activates the PERK and IRE1α branches of the unfolded protein response (UPR) in TP53 mutant HGSOC cells. Upon AZD1775 treatment, PERK facilitates apoptotic signaling in these cells via activating CHOP, whereas IRE1α-induced spliced XBP1 (XBP1s) confers survival in response to WEE1 inhibition. Our data uncover an important dual role of UPR in TP53 mutant HGSOC cells in response to AZD1775, where additional inhibition of IRE1α-XBP1s signaling may offer synergistic efficacy.

Stress-induced tyrosine phosphorylation of RtcB modulates IRE1 activity and signaling outputs.

Project description:Endoplasmic Reticulum (ER) stress is a hallmark of various diseases, which is dealt with through the activation of an adaptive signaling pathway named the Unfolded Protein Response (UPR). This response is mediated by three ER-resident sensors and the most evolutionary conserved, IRE1α signals through its cytosolic kinase and endoribonuclease (RNase) activities. IRE1α RNase activity can either catalyze the initial step of XBP1 mRNA unconventional splicing or degrade a number of RNAs through Regulated IRE1-Dependent Decay (RIDD). The balance between these two activities plays an instrumental role in cells’ life and death decisions upon ER stress. Until now, the biochemical and biological outputs of IRE1α RNase activity have been well documented, however, the precise mechanisms controlling whether IRE1 signaling is adaptive or pro-death (terminal) remain unclear. This prompted us to further investigate those mechanisms and we hypothesized that XBP1 mRNA splicing and RIDD activity could be co-regulated by the IRE1α RNase regulatory network. We showed that a key nexus in this pathway is the tRNA ligase RtcB which, together with IRE1α, is responsible for XBP1 mRNA splicing. We demonstrated that RtcB is tyrosine phosphorylated by c-Abl and dephosphorylated by PTP1B. Moreover, we identified RtcB Y306 as a key residue which, when phosphorylated, perturbs RtcB interaction with IRE1α, thereby attenuating XBP1 mRNA splicing and favoring RIDD. Our results demonstrate that the IRE1α RNase regulatory network is dynamically fine-tuned by tyrosine kinases and phosphatases upon various stresses and that the nature of the stress determines cell adaptive or death outputs.

CARM1 determines endoplasmic reticulum stress response by controlling XBP1 in ovarian cancer [CUT&RUN]

Project description:Cancer cells exploit adaptive responses such as endoplasmic reticulum (ER) stress to support their survival. ER stress response is mediated in part by the ER-localized transmembrane sensor IRE1α endoribonuclease and its substrate XBP1 to regulate XBP1 target gene expression. However, the mechanism that controls the IRE1α/XBP1 pathway remains poorly understood. CARM1 is an oncogene that is often overexpressed in a number of cancer types including ovarian cancer. Here we report that CARM1 determines ER stress response by controlling the IRE1α/XBP1 pathway. Genome-wide profiling revealed that CARM1 regulates XBP1 target gene expression during ER stress response. CARM1 directly interacts with XBP1. Inhibition of the IRE1α/XBP1 pathway was effective in ovarian cancer in a CARM1-dependent manner both in vitro and in vivo in orthotopic and patient-derived xenograft models. In addition, IRE1α inhibitor B-I09 synergizes with immune checkpoint blockade anti-PD1 antibody in an immunocompetent CARM1-expressing ovarian cancer model.

Chronic Activation of pDCs in Autoimmunity is linked to Dysregulated ER Stress and Metabolic Responses

Project description:Plasmacytoid dendritic cells (pDCs) chronically produce type I interferon (IFN-I) in multiple autoimmune diseases, such as systemic sclerosis (SSc) and systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE). Here, we report that the IRE1α-XBP1 branch of the unfolded protein response (UPR) inhibits the production of IFN-α by TLR7- or TLR9-activated pDCs. In SSc patients, pDCs demonstrated reduced expression of UPR marker genes, which inversely correlated with the levels of IFN-I-stimulated genes. CXCL4, a chemokine that is elevated in SSc patients, downregulated IRE1α-XBP1-controlled genes and promoted IFN-α production by pDCs. Mechanistically, IRE1α-XBP1 activation rewired glycolysis to serine biosynthesis by inducing phosphoglycerate dehydrogenase (PHGDH) expression. This process reduced pyruvate access to the tricarboxylic acid (TCA) cycle and blunted mitochondrial ATP generation and cAMP signaling, which are essential for pDC IFN-I responses. Notably, PHGDH expression was reduced in pDCs from patients with SSc and SLE, and pharmacological blockade of TCA cycle reactions inhibited IFN-I responses in pDCs from these patients. Hence, modulating the IRE1α-XBP1-PHGDH axis may represent a hitherto unexplored strategy for alleviating chronic pDC activation in autoimmune disorders.

IRE1α-XBP1 controls T cell function in ovarian cancer by regulating mitochondrial activity

Project description:Tumors evade immune control by creating hostile microenvironments that perturb T cell metabolism and effector function. However, it remains unclear how intratumoral T cells integrate and interpret metabolic stress signals. Here we report that ovarian cancer (OvCa), an aggressive malignancy refractory to standard treatments and current immunotherapies, induces Endoplasmic Reticulum (ER) stress and activation of the IRE1α-XBP1 arm of the Unfolded Protein Response (UPR)10,11 in T cells to control their mitochondrial respiration and anti-tumor function. XBP1 upregulation in T cells isolated from human OvCa specimens was associated with decreased intratumoral T cell infiltration and reduced IFNG mRNA expression. Malignant ascites fluid obtained from OvCa patients inhibited glucose uptake and caused N-linked protein glycosylation defects in T cells, leading to IRE1α/XBP1-driven suppression of mitochondrial activity and IFN- production. Mechanistically, XBP1 induction limited the influx of glutamine necessary to sustain T cell mitochondrial respiration under glucose-deprived conditions by regulating the abundance of glutamine carriers. Restoring N-linked protein glycosylation, abrogating IRE1α-XBP1 activation or enforcing expression of glutamine transporters enhanced mitochondrial respiration in human T cells exposed to OvCa ascites. XBP1-deficient T cells in the metastatic OvCa milieu exhibited global transcriptional reprogramming and improved effector capacity. Accordingly, OvCa-bearing mice lacking XBP1 selectively in T cells demonstrated superior anti-tumor immunity, delayed malignant progression and increased overall survival. Therefore, controlling ER stress or targeting IRE1α-XBP1 signaling may help restore T cell metabolic fitness and anti-tumor capacity in cancer hosts.

XBP1 coregulates unfolded protein response, acute phase response and DNA damage response during mouse liver regeneration

Project description:Partial hepatectomy (PH) imposes increased protein synthesis demands on remaining hepatocytes. Activation of IRE1α, a key sensor of endoplasmic reticulum (ER) stress, elicits XBP1 mRNA splicing and production of XBP1 protein, a main trigger of the unfolded protein response (UPR). Using genome-wide ChIPseq analysis we have explored the role of XBP1 during liver regeneration. XBP1 was induced in liver at 6h after PH in an IL-6 dependent manner. After PH, XBP1 silencing caused persistent ER stress, defective acute phase response (APR), increased hepatocellular damage and regenerative delay. At 6h post-PH, XBP1 bound an increased number of genes implicated in proteostasis, APR, metabolism, antioxidant defense and DNA damage response (DDR). ). XBP1 was linked to regulatory sequences containing canonical UPR motifs as well as motifs characteristic of other nuclear factors suggesting molecular interactions during liver regeneration. Upon PH, XBP1 bound the promoter of STAT3, a molecule downregulated in XBP1-silenced livers. XBP1 was indispensable for ser727-STAT3 phosphorylation, a post-translational modification implicated in cell proliferation and DNA damage repair. During active DNA replication XBP1 deficient livers showed high levels of the DNA double-strand break marker γ-H2AX, in association with defective upregulation of Eme1 and Fen1, two main executors of DDR. In conclusion, XBP1 is induced after PH and co-regulates UPR, APR and DDR during liver regeneration.

Transcriptomic analysis of in-vitro plasma cell generation from follicular B cells lacking Xbp1 [Xbp1_PC_stim]

Project description:During plasma cell differentiation there is activation of UPR gene expression that has been termed the physiological UPR of plasma cell differentiation. This is canonically thought to be downstream of Blimp1-mediated increases in immunoglobulin gene production and activation of the Xbp1 transcription factor by the RNA splicing activity of the ER-stress sensor IRE1α. Having observed UPR-affiliated gene expression prior to upregulation of Blimp1 as reported in the companion linked series, we endeavored to determine the necessity of Xbp1 activity in the early remodeling of the ER in nascent plasma cells. To this end, we mated mice harboring a floxed exon 2 of the Xbp1 gene (Xbp1flox) to mice expressing a tamoxifen-inducible cre recombinase under the control of the human CD20 promoter (hCD20-TamCre). These mice and their hCD20-TamCre-Xbp1wt litermates were fed oral tamoxifen in their diet for two weeks and follicular B cells were prepared for in-vitro plasma cell differentiation studies. We report here that prior to plasma cell differentiation as measured by CD138 expression, which coincides temporally with Blimp1 expression, there is no defect in UPR-affiliated gene expression in cells lacking Xbp1.
