PKCl/i inhibition activates an ULK2-mediated interferon response to repress tumorigenesis [ATAC-Seq]

ABSTRACT: The interferon (IFN) pathway is critical for cytotoxic T cell activation, which is central to tumor immunosurveillance and successful immunotherapy. We demonstrate here that PKCl/i inactivation results in the hyper-stimulation of the IFN cascade and the enhanced recruitment of CD8+ T cells that impaired the growth of intestinal tumors. PKCl/i directly phosphorylates and represses the activity of ULK2, promoting its degradation through an endosomal microautophagy-driven ubiquitin-dependent mechanism. Loss of PKCl/i results in increased levels of enzymatically active ULK2 that by direct phosphorylation activates TBK1 to foster the activation of the STING-mediated IFN response. PKCl/i inactivation also triggers autophagy that prevents STING degradation by chaperone-mediated autophagy. Thus, PKCl/i is a hub regulating the IFN pathway and three autophagic mechanisms that serve to maintain its homeostatic control. Importantly, single cell multiplex imaging and bioinformatics analysis demonstrated that low PKCl/i levels correlate with enhanced IFN signaling and good prognosis in colorectal cancer patients.

Cyclic-Di-Nucleotides Trigger ULK1 (ATG1) Phosphorylation of STING to Prevent Sustained Innate Immune Signaling

Project description:Activation of the STING (Stimulator of Interferon Genes) pathway by microbial or self-DNA, as well as cyclic di nucleotides (CDN), results in the induction of numerous genes that suppress pathogen replication and facilitate adaptive immunity. However, sustained gene transcription is rigidly prevented to avoid lethal STING-dependent pro-inflammatory disease by mechanisms that remain unknown. We demonstrate here that after autophagy-dependent STING delivery of TBK1 (TANK-binding kinase 1) to endosomal/lysosomal compartments and activation of transcription factors IRF3 (interferon regulatory factors 3) and NF-κB (nuclear factor kappa beta), that STING is subsequently phosphorylated by serine/threonine UNC-51-like kinase (ULK1/ATG1) and IRF3 function is suppressed. ULK1 activation occurred following disassociation from its repressor adenine monophosphate activated protein kinase (AMPK), and was elicited by CDN’S generated by the cGAMP synthase, cGAS. Thus, while CDN’s may initially facilitate STING function, they subsequently trigger negative-feedback control of STING activity, thus preventing the persistent transcription of innate immune genes. Total RNA obtained from primary STING deficient mouse embryonic fibroblast reconstituted with mSTING (W), S365A variant (A), or S365D variant (D). These cells were transfected with dsDNA (ISD) for 3 hours.

An HIV protein mediates immune evasion by targeting cGAS–STING signaling

Project description:The cyclic GMP-AMP synthase (cGAS) recognizes Y-form cDNA of HIV-1 and initiate the antiviral immune response through cGAS–STING–TBK1–IRF3–type I IFN (IFN-I) signaling cascade. HIV-1 uses several strategies to interfere with the host immune molecules and mediate immune evasion. However, the potential role of HIV-1 proteins in cGAS–STING signaling remains unclear. Here we report that the HIV-1 protein p6 suppresses HIV-1-stimulated expression of IFN-I and promotes the immune evasion. Mechanistically, p6 bound with STING and inhibited the activation of STING and the interaction between STING and TBK1. Moreover, the glutamylation of p6 at Glu6 residue inhibited the interaction between STING and TRIM32 or AMFR, which subsequently suppressed the K27- and K63-linked polyubiquitination of STING at Lys337, therefore inhibited STING activation and type I IFN production, while the mutation of Glu6 residue lost the inhibitory effect. However, CoCl2, an agonist for cytosolic carboxypeptidases (CCPs), counteracted the glutamylation of Glu6 residue of p6 and promoted IFN-I production to block the immune evasion of HIV-1. These findings not only reveal a previously unknown mechanism through which an HIV-1 protein mediate immune evasion, but also provide a new therapeutic drug candidate to treat HIV-1 infection.

RNAseq of mouse RAW264.7 macrophages with CRISPR deletion of SGK1, SGK3, or SGK1/3 or treated with SGKi Sanofi-14h with or without DMXAA stimulation.

Project description:The STING signaling pathway is essential for the innate immune response to DNA viruses and bacteria and is important in tumor immunity. STING binding to cGAMP or to synthetic agonists leads to the activation of the kinase TBK1 which phosphorylates the transcription factor IRF3 which promotes expression of type 1 interferons such as IFNb to block viral activity. Aberrant type 1 IFN expression is associated with human diseases including autoimmunity, HIV, and cancer. Here we identify N-[4-(1H-pyrazolo[3,4-b] pyrazin-6-yl)-phenyl]-sulfonamide (Sanofi-14h), a compound with preference for inhibition of the AGC family kinase SGK3, as an inhibitor of IFNb gene expression in response to STING stimulation of macrophages. Sanofi-14h abrogated SGK activity and also impaired activation of the critical TBK1/IRF3 pathway downstream of STING activation, notably blocking the ligand-induced interaction of STING with TBK1. Deletion of SGK1 and SGK3 in macrophages suppressed activation of IFNb transcription but did not block TBK1/IRF3 activation downstream of STING. Gene and protein expression analysis revealed that deletion of SGK1/3 in a macrophage cell line decreases basal expression of critical transcription factors required for the innate immune response, such as IRF7 and STAT1. Additional studies reveal that other AGC kinase inhibitors block TBK1 and IRF3 activation suggesting common action on a critical regulatory node in the STING pathway. Thus, studies with Sanofi-14h have revealed both SGK-dependent and SGK-independent effects in the STING pathway and suggest a mechanism to alter type 1 IFN transcription through small molecule therapy

ARF1 prevents aberrant type I IFN induction by regulating STING activation and recycling

Project description:Type I interferon (IFN) signalling is tightly controlled. Upon recognition of DNA by cyclic GMP-AMP synthase (cGAS), stimulator of interferon genes (STING) translocates along the endoplasmic reticulum (ER)-Golgi axis to induce IFN signalling. Afterwards, signal termination is achieved through autophagic degradation of STING, or STING recycling by retrograde COPI-mediated transport. Here we identify the GTPase ARF1 as a negative regulator of cGAS-STING signaling. Heterozygous ARF1 missense mutations cause a novel type I interferonopathy associated with enhanced IFN stimulated gene production. Expression of patient-derived, GTPase-defective, ARF1 in cell lines and primary cells results in increased cGAS-STING dependent type I IFN signalling. Mechanistically, mutated ARF1 both induces activation of cGAS by aberrant mitochondrial DNA, and promotes accumulation of active STING at the Golgi/ERGIC due to defective COPI retrograde transport. Our data establish ARF1 as a key factor in cGAS-STING homeostasis, which is required to maintain mitochondrial integrity and promote STING recycling.

hnRNPM, ELAVL1, and TBK1 form a type I interferon-inducing multiprotein complex downstream of cGAS and RIG-I

Project description:RIG-I like helicases (RLHs) and cGAS are crucial cytosolic sensors of viral RNA and DNA, respectively, and induce type I IFNs via TBK1/IKKε. hnRNPM was described to possess antimicrobial activities. Here, we show that hnRNPM promotes TBK1/IRF3 phosphorylation and type I IFN induction downstream of cGAS and RIG-I in THP-1 cells and primary human fibroblasts. Interactome analysis revealed that hnRNPM forms a multiprotein complex with ELAVL1, SON, TBK1, IKKε, IKKβ, and NF-κB p65. The purified hnRNPM complex enhanced TBK1 phosphorylation. Vice versa, TBK1 directly phosphorylated ELAVL1. hnRNPM, ELAVL1, and TBK1 predominantly interacted in the cytosol. Of note, patients with mutations in SON suffer from recurrent infections, further underlining its biologic significance. To our knowledge, hnRNPM, ELAVL1, and SON represent the first non-redundant signaling components merging the cGAS-STING and RIG-I–MAVS pathways. Therefore, our findings may have implications for host defense and auto-inflammatory diseases.

Induction of antiviral Interferon-Stimulated Genes (ISGs) by neuronal STING promotes the resolution of pain

Project description:Nociceptive neurons respond to inflammation, initiating protective reflexes and alerting the host. Here we found that TRPV1 nociceptors express and activate the cytosolic DNA-sensing protein Stimulator of Interferon Genes (STING) in response to inflammation. Neuronal activation of STING promotes signaling through TBK1 and triggers a Type I interferon (IFN-I) response. The absence of STING led to heightened pain responses to chemical irritants or heat. In contrast, mice expressing a nociceptor-specific gain-of-function mutation in STING exhibited an IFN gene signature that reduced nociceptor excitability and inflammatory hyperalgesia. Importantly, several IFN-regulated genes (IRGs) were specific to nociceptor ion channels responsible for controlling neuronal activity and pain threshold. Therefore, STING promotes a pain-resolving IFN-I signaling pathway in nociceptors, thereby preventing sensitization and persistent pain
