Integrin b1 acetylation-induced transcriptomic reprograming of mouse embryonic endothelial cells and functions

ABSTRACT: Reciprocal regulation of integrin-dependent cell-matrix adhesions and cell-cell junctions is critical for controlling endothelial permeability and proliferation in cancer and inflammatory diseases, but remain poorly understood. Here, we investigated how acetylation of the distal NPKY-motif of b1-integrin influences endothelial cell physiology and barrier function. Expression of an acetylation-mimetic B1A-K794Q-GFP mutant induced transcriptomic reprograming of embryonic endothelial cells particularly in genes responsible for cell adhesion, proliferation, polarity and barrier function. B1A-K794Q-GFP induced a constitutive activation of MAPK signaling, an impairment of junctions, increased proliferation and an altered contact inhibition at confluency. Structural analysis of integrin b1 interaction with KINDLIN-2, biochemical pulldown assay and molecular dynamic analysis showed that acetylation of K794 increases KINDLIN-2 binding to the integrin b1 cytoplasmic tail. Accordingly, altering KINDLIN-2 levels modified Claudin-5 expression and endothelial barrier function. Revealing how integrin b1 acetylation regulates endothelial cell junctions offers new therapeutic possibilities for controlling vascular permeability.

Expression data of cDNA from the ACHN control and Kindlin-2-depleting cells

Project description:Kindlin-2, an integrin-interacting FERM-domain-containing protein, has been known to play critical roles for tumor progression. However, the role of Kindlin-2 in renal cell carcinoma (RCC) progression has not been reported. We aim to investigate the role of Kindlin-2 in the progression of RCC and the underlying mechanisms. To uncover the related pathway in which Kindlin-2 is involved to promote clear cell renal cell carcinoma progression, ACHN control and Kindlin-2-depleting cells were analyzed by Affymetrix GeneChip human Gene 1.0 ST Arrays. ACHN cells were transfected with control short hairpin RNA (shRNA) or Kindlin-2 shRNA. ACHN control and Kindlin-2-depleting cells cDNAs were hybridized to Affymetrix GeneChip Human Gene 1.0 ST arrays. Data were analyzed by Expression Console 1.4.1.

b1 integrin regulates epithelial proliferation and cell shape during alveolar repair

Project description:Integrins are extracellular matrix receptors comprised of an a and b subunit that connect and mediate signaling between cells and the surrounding matrix. In organogenesis of epithelial tissues, the b1 integrin subunit regulates essential epithelial cell functions, but the role of b1 integrin in epithelial repair is poorly understood. To define the role of b1 integrin during alveolar repair, we challenged b1 integrin deficient mice with intratracheal lipopolysaccharide, resulting in increased mortality with emphysematous lungs 21 days following injury. The alveolar barrier was repopulated with an overabundance of type 2 alveolar epithelial cells, with reduced numbers of elongated alveolar type 1 cells, suggesting b1 integrin is required for type 2 to type 1 epithelial transition. Consistent with this finding, b1 deficient type 2 epithelial cells proliferated at increased rates throughout repair, lacked actin-rich cellular protrusions necessary for lateral cellular extension, and exhibited transcriptomic dysregulation of adherens junction and actin polymerization pathways. Finally, we show that b1 integrin balances actin polymerization versus stabilization through GTPase activation. Taken together, these data support a novel role for b1 integrin in re-establishing the alveolar niche after injury through modulation of type 2 epithelial cell proliferation and cytoskeletal-dependent cell shape change.

Structural basis of human full-length kindlin-3 homotrimer in an auto-inhibited state

Project description:Kindlin-1, -2, and -3, directly bind integrin β cytoplasmic tails to regulate integrin activation and signaling. Despite their functional significance and link to several diseases, structural information on full-length kindlin proteins remains unknown. Here, we report the crystal structure of human full-length kindlin-3, which reveals a novel homotrimer state. Unlike kindlin-3 monomer, which is the major population in insect and mammalian cell expression systems, kindlin-3 trimer does not bind integrin β cytoplasmic tail as the integrin-binding pocket in the F3 sub-domain of one protomer is occluded by the PH domain of another protomer, suggesting that kindlin-3 is auto-inhibited upon trimer formation. This is also supported by functional assays in which kindlin-3 knockout K562 erythroleukemia cells re-constituted with the mutant kindlin-3 containing trimer-disrupting mutations exhibited an increase in integrin-mediated adhesion and spreading on fibronectin compared to those re-constituted with wild type kindlin-3. Taken together, our findings reveal a novel mechanism of kindlin auto-inhibition that involves its homotrimer formation.

FOXF1 inhibits endothelial barrier function in the lung and transcriptionally activates the gene for the S1PR1 receptor

Project description:Multiple signaling pathways, structural proteins and transcription factors are involved in regulation of endothelial barrier function. The Forkhead protein FOXF1 is a key transcriptional regulator of lung embryonic development, and we use a conditional knockout approach to examine the role of FOXF1 in adult lung homeostasis and lung injury and repair. Tamoxifen-regulated deletion of both Foxf1 alleles in endothelial cells of adult mice (Pdgfb-iCreER/Foxf1 caused lung inflammation and edema, leading to respiratory insuffency and uniform mortality. Deletion of a single foxf1 allele was sufficient to increase susceptibility of heterozygous mice to acute lung injury. FOXF1 abundance was decreased in pulmonary endothelial cells of human patients with acute lung injury. Gene expression analysis of pulmonary endothelial cells of FOXF1 deletion indicated reduced expression for genes critical for maintance and regulation of adherens junctions. FOXF1 knockdown in vitro and in vivo disrupted adherens junctions, increased lung endothelial permeability, and the abundance of mRNA and protein for sphingosine 1 phosphate receptor 1 (S1PR1), a key regulator of endothelial barrier function. Chromatin immunoprecipitation and luciferase reporter assay demonstrated that FOXF1 directly bound to and induced the tanscriptional activity of the S1pr1 promoter. Pharmacological administratiion of S1P to injured pdgfb-iCreER/Foxf1 mice restored endothelial barrier function, decreased lung edema and improved survival. Thus, FOXF1 promotes normal lung homeostasis and lung repair, at least in part, by enhancing endothelial barrier function through transcriptional activation of the S1P/S1PR1/ signaling pathway.

Low kindlin-3 levels in osteoclasts of kindlin-3 hypomorphic mice result in osteopetrosis due to leaky sealing zones

Project description:Osteoclasts form special integrin-mediated adhesion structures called sealing zones that enable them to adhere to and resorb bone. Sealing zones consist mainly of densely packed podosomes tightly inter-connected by actin fibers. Their formation requires the presence of the hematopoietic integrin regulator kindlin-3. In the current study, we investigated osteoclasts and their adhesion structures in kindlin-3 hypomorphic mice expressing only 5-10% of kindlin-3. Low kindlin-3 expression reduces integrin activity, results in impaired osteoclast adhesion and signaling, and delays cell spreading. Despite these defects, in vitro generated kindlin-3-hypomorphic osteoclasts arrange their podosomes into adhesion patches and belts, which show abnormal podosome and actin organization. Remarkably, kindlin-3-hypomorphic osteoclasts form sealing zones when cultured on calcified matrix in vitro and on bone surface in vivo. However, functional assays as well as immunohistochemical staining and electron micrographs of bone sections showed that they fail to properly seal the resorption lacunae, which is required for secreted proteases to be able to digest bone matrix. This results in mild osteopetrosis. Our study reveals a new, hitherto understudied function of kindlin-3 as an essential organizer of integrin-mediated adhesion structures, such as sealing zones.

The integrin linked kinase is required for chemokine-triggered high affinity conformation of the leukocyte β2-integrin LFA-1The integrin linked kinase is required for chemokine-triggered high affinity conformation of the leukocyte β2-integrin LFA-1

Project description:Invasion of leukocytes, including neutrophils, in response to injury or infection relies on the orchestrated activation of integrins. The neutrophil integrin lymphocyte function-associated antigen-1 (LFA-1) has been implicated in the regulation of leukocyte adhesion by binding to ICAM-1 expressed on activated endothelial cells. The activation-dependent conformational change of LFA-1 to the high affinity conformation (H+) requires kindlin-3 binding to the tail of the β2-integrin. How the integrin linked kinase (ILK) affects activation of β2-integrins in leukocytes is currently unknown. Here, utilizing in vitro microfluidic adhesion chambers with conformation specific antibodies for neutrophil-like HL-60 cells, we show that knockdown of ILK reduces the conformational change of β2-integrins to the H+ conformation. Consequently, ILK-deficient mice show defects of leukocyte adhesion and recruitment in a chemokine and integrin-dependent cremaster muscle model and in a clinically relevant model of renal-ischemia-reperfusion-injury. Absence of protein kinase C (PKC)-α, which is known to phosphorylate Kindlin-3, reproduces such phenotype in bone marrow chimeric mice. ILK is required for chemokine-induced upregulation of PKC-α activity. Mass spectrometry analysis and western blot analyses revealed a stimulation- and ILK-dependent phosphorylation of kindlin-3 upon activation. Our data thus show that ILK impacts kindlin-3-dependent conformational activation of LFA-1, thus contributing to an inflammatory response.

Microarray data from control and pericyte-deficient mouse brain microvascular transcriptomes

Project description:The blood-brain barrier (BBB) consists of specific physical barriers, enzymes and transporters, which together maintain the necessary extracellular environment of the central nervous system (CNS). The main physical barrier is found in the CNS endothelial cell, and depends on continuous complexes of tight junctions combined with reduced vesicular transport. Other possible constituents of the BBB include extracellular matrix, astrocytes and pericytes, but the relative contribution of these different components to the BBB remains largely unknown. Here we demonstrate a direct role of pericytes at the BBB in vivo. Using a set of adult viable pericyte-deficient mouse mutants we show that pericyte deficiency increases the permeability of the BBB to water and a range of low-molecular-mass and high-molecular-mass tracers. The increased permeability occurs by endothelial transcytosis, a process that is rapidly arrested by the drug imatinib. Furthermore, we show that pericytes function at the BBB in at least two ways: by regulating BBB-specific gene expression patterns in endothelial cells, and by inducing polarization of astrocyte end-feet surrounding CNS blood vessels. Our results indicate a novel and critical role for pericytes in the integration of endothelial and astrocyte functions at the neurovascular unit, and in the regulation of the BBB.

Knockout mice reveal key roles for claudin-18 in alveolar fluid homeostasis.

Project description:Claudin proteins are major constituents of epithelial and endothelial tight junctions (TJ), where they serve as regulators of paracellular permeability to ions and solutes. Claudin-18, a member of the large claudin family, is highly expressed in lung epithelium. To elucidate the role of claudin-18 in alveolar epithelial barrier function and fluid homeostasis, we generated claudin-18 knockout (C18 KO) mice. Increased alveolar fluid clearance (AFC) observed in C18 KO mice may have accounted for absence of lung edema despite increased alveolar solute permeability compared to wild type (WT) controls. Higher AFC in C18 KO mice was associated with higher Na-K-ATPase activity and increased expression of the Na-K-ATPase β1 subunit compared to WT controls. Consistent with in vivo findings, alveolar epithelial cell (AEC) monolayers derived from C18 KO mice exhibited lower transepithelial electrical resistance (RT) accompanied by increased solute and ion permeability without changes in ion selectivity. Expression of claudin-3 and claudin-4 was markedly increased in whole lung and in freshly isolated AEC from C18 KO mice, while claudin-5 was unchanged. In contrast, occludin, another major component of the TJ complex, was significantly decreased in C18 KO lung. Further analysis revealed rearrangements in the F-actin cytoskeleton in C18 KO MAECM. These findings demonstrate a crucial non-redundant role for claudin-18 in regulation of alveolar epithelial tight junction composition and permeability to ions and solutes. Importantly, increased AFC in C18 KO mice identifies additional roles for claudin-18 in alveolar fluid homeostasis beyond its direct contributions to barrier properties of the alveolar epithelium. Animals with a ubiquitous knockout (C18 KO) were obtained by crossing mice harboring a conditional (floxed) allele of claudin-18 (Cldn18F/F) with CMV-cre deleter mice to delete exons 2 and 3 by Cre/loxP recombination.
