Overexpression of IκB⍺ modulates NF-κB activation of inflammatory target gene expression

ABSTRACT: Cells respond to inflammatory stimuli such as cytokines by activation of the nuclear factor-κB (NF-κB) signalling pathway, resulting in oscillatory translocation of the transcription factor p65 between nucleus and cytoplasm to mediate immune response. We investigate the relationship between p65 and inhibitor-κB⍺ (IκBα) protein levels and dynamic properties of the system, and how this interaction impacts on the expression of key inflammatory genes. Using bacterial artificial chromosomes, we developed new cell models of IκB⍺-eGFP protein overexpression in a native genomic context. We find that cells with high levels of the negative regulator IκBα remain responsive to inflammatory stimuli and maintain dynamics for both p65 and IκBα. In contrast, canonical target gene expression is dramatically reduced by overexpression of IκBα, but can be partially rescued by overexpression of p65. Treatment with leptomycin B to promote nuclear accumulation of IκB⍺ also suppresses canonical target gene expression, suggesting a mechanism in which nuclear IκB⍺ accumulation prevents productive p65 interaction with promoter binding sites. This causes reduced target promoter binding and gene transcription, which we validate by chromatin immune precipitation and in primary cells. Overall, we show how inflammatory gene transcription is modulated by the expression levels of both IκB⍺ and p65, and that transcription can be partially decoupled from p65 protein dynamics. This results in an anti-inflammatory effect on transcription, demonstrating a broad mechanism to modulate the strength of inflammatory response. https://doi.org/10.1101/2023.03.14.532132

Alpha-kinase 1 functions upstream of IKKs to regulate NF-κB activation in Helicobacter infection

Project description:Gastric mucosa responds to the pathogen Helicobacter pylori (H. pylori) by producing and release of pro-inflammatory cytokines that activate the innate immune system mainly through activation of the transcription factor NF-κB. Although NF-κB signaling is well studied for many possible inducers, induction by H. pylori remains poorly understood. Here, we performed a high-throughput genome-wide RNAi screen for genes influencing H. pylori-induced NF-κB activation. In comparison to TNFα or IL‐1β NF‐κB signaling, we identified 21 proteins unique necessary for H. pylori NF-κB pathway and 24 factors that inhibited the activation. Furthermore, we present here the R/Bioconductor package Nested Effect Model for systematic use in high-throughput screens to classify newly identified factors. We identified alpha kinase 1 (ALPK1) as particular important for the H. pylori NF‐κB pathway without affecting TNFα or IL‐1β signaling. ALPK1 silencing inhibits activity of TAK1 and the IκB kinases (IKKs), degradation of the NF‐κB inhibitor IκBα, nuclear translocation of the NF‐κB subunit p65, and transcription of the NF‐κB target genes, e.g. IL‐8. Thus, we identify ALPK1 as a novel inflammatory regulator functioning particularly in the NF‐κB signaling network activated by H. pylori.

Cancer-induced Muscle Wasting is IKKβ-dependent and NF-kappaB-independent

Project description:Existing data suggest that NF-kappaB signaling is a key regulator of cancer-induced skeletal muscle wasting. However, identification of the components of this signaling pathway and of the NF-κB transcription factors that regulate wasting is far from complete. In muscles of C26 tumor bearing mice, overexpression of d.n. IKKβ blocked muscle wasting by 69%, the IκBα-super repressor blocked wasting by 41%. In contrast, overexpression of d.n. IKKα or d.n. NIK did not block C26-induced wasting. Surprisingly, overexpression of d.n. p65 or d.n. c-Rel did not significantly block muscle wasting. Genome-wide mRNA expression arrays showed upregulation of many genes previously implicated in muscle atrophy. To test if these upregulated genes were direct targets of NF-κB transcription factors, we compared genome-wide p65 or p50 binding to DNA in control and cachectic muscle using ChIP-sequencing. Bioinformatic analysis of ChIP-seq data from control and C26 muscles showed increased p65 and p50 binding to a few regulatory and structural genes but only two of these genes were upregulated with atrophy. The p65 and p50 ChIP-seq data are consistent with our finding of no significant change in protein binding to an NF-κB oligo in a gel shift assay. Taken together, these data support the idea that although inhibition of IκBα, and particularly IKKβ, blocks cancer-induced wasting, the alternative NF-κB signaling pathway is not required. In addition, the downstream NF-κB transcription factors do not regulate the transcriptional changes. These data are consistent with the growing body of literature showing that there are NF-κB-independent substrates of IKKβ and IκBα that regulate physiological processes.

T Cell Receptor-Induced NF-kB Signaling and Transcriptional Activation Are Regulated by STIM1- and Orai1-Mediated Calcium Entry

Project description:T cell activation following antigen binding to the T cell receptor (TCR) involves the mobilization of intracellular calcium (Ca2+) to activate the key transcription factors NFAT and NF-κB. The mechanism of NFAT activation by Ca2+ has been determined; however, the role of Ca2+ in controlling NF-κB signaling is poorly understood and the source of Ca2+ required for NF-κB activation is unknown. We demonstrate that TCR- but not TNF- induced NF-κB signaling upstream of IκB kinase (IKK) activation absolutely requires the influx of extracellular Ca2+ via STIM1-dependent CRAC/Orai channels. We further show that Ca2+ influx controls phosphorylation of the NF-κB protein p65 on Ser536 and that this post- translational modification controls its nuclear localization and transcriptional activation. Notably our data reveal that this role for Ca2+ is entirely separate from its upstream control of IκBα degradation, thereby identifying a novel Ca2+- dependent distal step in TCR-induced NF-κB activation. Finally, we demonstrate that this control of distal signaling occurs via Ca2+-dependent PKCk-mediated phosphorylation of p65. Thus, we establish the source of Ca2+ required for TCR induced NF-kB activation and we define a new distal Ca2+-dependent checkpoint in TCR-induced NF-kB signaling that has broad implications for the control of immune cell development and T cell functional specificity.

PKCα-LSD1-NF-κB Signaling Cascade Is Crucial for Epigenetic Control of the Inflammatory Response [ChIP-Seq]

Project description:The inflammatory response mediated by NF-κB signaling is essential for host defense against pathogens. Although the components and regulatory mechanism of NF-κB signaling have been well-studied, molecular basis for the epigenetic regulation of the inflammatory response is poorly understood. Here, we identify a new signaling axis of PKCα- LSD1-NF-κB p65 which is critical for activation and amplification of the inflammatory response and triggering systemic inflammatory diseases. In response to excessive inflammatory stimuli, PKCα translocates to the nucleus and phosphorylates LSD1. Phosphorylation of LSD1 is required for its interaction with p65 and facilitates demethylation of p65 leading to enhanced protein stability. Genome-wide analysis reveals a critical role of LPS-induced LSD1 phosphorylation in the transcriptional activation of NF-κB target genes. Together, we demonstrate that PKCα-LSD1-NF-κB signaling cascade is crucial for epigenetic control of the inflammatory response.

Tubular epithelial NF-κB activity regulates acute ischemic kideny injury [OTT-211009]

Project description:NF-κB is a key regulator of innate and adaptive immunity and is implicated in the pathogenesis of acute kidney injury (AKI). The cell type-specific functions of NF-κB in the kidney are unknown; however, the pathway serves distinct functions in immune and tissue-parenchymal cells. We analyzed tubular epithelial-specific NF-κB signaling in a mouse model of ischemia-reperfusion injury (IRI)-induced AKI. NF-κB reporter activity and nuclear localization of phosphorylated NF-κB subunit p65 analyses in mice revealed widespread NF-κB activation in renal tubular epithelia and in interstitial cells following IRI that peaked at 2-3 days after injury. To genetically antagonize tubular epithelial NF-κB activity, we generated mice expressing the human NF-κB super-repressor IκBα∆N in renal proximal, distal, and collecting duct epithelial cells. These mice were protected from IRI-induced AKI, as indicated by improved renal function, reduced tubular apoptosis, and attenuated neutrophil and macrophage infiltration. Tubular NF-κB-dependent gene expression profiles revealed temporally distinct functional gene clusters for apoptosis, chemotaxis, and morphogenesis. Primary proximal tubular cells isolated from IκBα∆N-expressing mice exposed to hypoxia-mimetic agent cobalt chloride were protected from apoptosis and expressed reduced levels of chemokines. Our results indicate that postischemic NF-κB activation in renal-tubular epithelia aggravates tubular injury and exacerbates a maladaptive inflammatory response.

Dynamic association of IκBα to chromatin during intestinal differentiation is regulated by Acetylation and N-terminal cleavage of histone H4

Project description:IκBs exert a principal function as cytoplasmic inhibitors of the NF-kB transcription factors. Additional functions for specific IκB homologues have also been described including their association to chromatin to directly regulate gene transcription. Phosphorylated and SUMOylated IκBα (pS-IκBα) specifically binds histones H2A and H4 in the stem and progenitor compartment of skin and intestine, but the mechanisms that control the recruitment of nuclear pS-IκBα to the chromatin are largely unstudied. We here show thatserine 32-36 phosphorylation of IκBα favors its binding with nucleosomes and demonstrated that p-IκBαassociation to H4 is favored by acetylation at specific H4 lysine (K) residues. Acetylated N-terminal tail of H4 is lost during intestinal cell differentiation due to histone cleavage at amino acids 17-19 by the action of trypsin or chymotrypsin, which interferes p-IκBα association to chromatin. Paradoxically, pharmacologic or genetic inhibition of trypsin and chymotrypsin activity in HT29 cells increased p-IκBα chromatin binding, associated to impaired goblet cell differentiation, which was comparable to IκBα deletion. Together our results indicate that dynamic binding of IκBα to chromatin is a requirement for intestinal cell differentiation and provide a molecular base for the restricted nuclear distribution of p-IκBα at specific stem cell compartments.

Cyclin-dependent kinase 6 is a chromatin-bound cofactor for nuclear factor kappaB-dependent gene expression [Agilent]

Project description:Given the intimate link between inflammation and dysregulated cell proliferation in cancer we investigated cytokine-triggered gene expression in different cell cycle stages. High density microarray analysis revealed that G1 release primes and cooperates with the cytokine-driven gene response. This effect is transmitted through CDK6 which shares the ability to regulate expression of inflammatory genes with its functional homologue CDK4. CDK6 contributes to the regulation of inflammatory gene expression by physical and functional cooperation with the NF-κB subunit p65 in the nucleus. ChIPSeq experiments showed a tight co-recruitment of CDK6 and p65 to enhancers and promoters of many transcriptionally active NF-κB target genes. While CDK6 recruitment to distinct chromatin regions of inflammatory target genes had no effect on histone modifications, it was essential for proper loading of NF-κB p65 to its cognate binding sites and for the function of p65 coactivators such as TRIP6. Furthermore, cytokine-inducible nuclear translocation and chromatin association of CDK6 depends on the kinase activity of TAK1 and p38. These results have widespread biological implications, as aberrant CDK6 expression or activation that is frequently observed in human tumors cooperates with NF-κB to shape the cytokine- and chemokine-repertoire in chronic inflammation and cancer. Four sets of experiments were performed in total (Exp1-4). Within each of these sets biological duplicates (Rep1-2) were included and analyzed. HeLa control cells or cells with established shRNA-mediated knockdown of CDK4 or CDK6 were analyzed. Cells were subjected to cell cycle arrest or were released from the arrested state for 6h. Cells were treated for 30 minutes with Interleukin-1-alpha at the arrested state or after release or were left untreated.
