Roles of the nuclear receptor corepressor 1 (NCoR1) and the silencing mediator of retinoid and thyroid hormone receptors (SMRT) in the developing brain

ABSTRACT: The nuclear receptor corepressor 1 (NCoR1) and the silencing mediator of retinoic acid and thyroid hormone (SMRT) are critical coregulators of nuclear receptors, including the thyroid hormone receptor and they mediate transcriptional repression via histone deacetylation. Although they are highly homologous and have similar receptor interacting domains, they have different roles in different tissues. Recently, de novo genetic variants in nuclear corepressors were found in pediatric patients with neurodevelopmental disorders. Thus, we generated novel mouse models to understand the role of NCOR1 and SMRT in the central nervous system. We used the mice with conditional NCoR1 or SMRT (NCoR1lox/lox or SMRTlox/lox) alleles in combination with the mice that express Cre recombinase in a neuronal specific fashion (Snap25-IRES2-cre). First, we performed behavioral tests to assess for any behavioral phenotypes. We found hypoactivity, social deficits, and mild anxiety in neuronal specific deletion of NCoR1 or SMRT KO mice. In addition, NCoR1 KO mice displayed higher learning abilities in a pairwise visual discrimination task. Next, we performed RNA-sequencing analysis with cells from the amygdala taken at postnatal day 21 to investigate gene expression mediated by NCoR1 and SMRT. We found that 449 genes were upregulated by SMRT deletion, whereas only 8 genes were upregulated by NCoR1 deletion. Overall, our data demonstrate that NCoR1 and SMRT have separate functions in the central nervous system.

NCoR1 and SMRT play unique roles in thyroid hormone signaling in the liver

Project description:NCoR1 (Nuclear receptor Co-Repressor) and SMRT (Silencing Mediator of Retinoid and Thyroid hormone receptor) are well-recognized coregulators of nuclear receptor (NR) action. However, their unique roles in the regulation of thyroid hormone (TH) signaling in specific cell types have not been determined. To accomplish this we generated a mouse model that lacked function of either NCoR1 or SMRT or both in the liver only. Despite both corepressors being present in the liver, SMRT had no ability to regulate TH signaling when deleted in either euthyroid or hypothyroid animals. In contrast, disruption of NCoR1 action confirmed that it is the principal mediator of TH sensitivity in vivo. While SMRT played little role in TH signaling alone, when disrupted in combination with NCoR1 it greatly accentuated the activation of hepatic lipogenesis regulated by NCoR1. Thus, corepressor specificity exists in vivo and NCoR1 is the principal regulator of TH action in the liver. However, both NCoR1 and SMRT collaborate to control hepatic lipogenesis and lipid storage, which likely reflects their cooperative activity in regulating the action of multiple NRs including the thyroid hormone receptor (TR). RNA was extracted from livers from 3 individual mice for each group (Double-floxed, Liver specific-SMRT knock out, and Liver specific-double knock out); all were euthyroid, female mice

Corepressors NCOR1 and SMRT regulate metabolism via intestinal regulation of carbohydrate transport

Project description:Objective: Nuclear receptor action is mediated in part by the nuclear receptor corepressor 1 (NCOR1) and the silencing mediator of retinoic acid and thyroid hormone receptor (SMRT; also known as NCOR2). NCOR1 and SMRT regulate metabolic pathways that govern body mass, insulin sensitivity and energy expenditure and represent an understudied area in the realm of metabolic health and disease. Previously, we found that NCOR1 and SMRT are essential for maintaining metabolic homeostasis and their knockout (KO) leads to rapid weight loss and hypoglycemia, which is not survivable. Because of a potential defect in glucose absorption, we sought to determine the role of NCOR1 and SMRT specifically in intestinal epithelial cells (IECs). Methods: We used a post-natal strategy to disrupt NCOR1 and SMRT throughout IECs in adult mice. These mice were characterized metabolically by assessing body weight, glucose levels and subjecting the mice to metabolic phenotyping, body composition analysis and glucose tolerance testing. IECs were isolated from the jejunum of the small intestine and profiled by bulk RNA sequencing. Results: We found that the post-natal KO of NCOR1 and SMRT from IECs leads to rapid weight loss and hypoglycemia with a significant reduction in survival. This was accompanied by alterations in glucose metabolism and activation of fatty acid oxidation in IECs. Metabolic phenotyping confirmed a reduction in body mass driven by a loss of body fat without any difference in food intake. This appeared to be driven by a reduction of key intestinal carbohydrate transporters, including SGLT1, GLUT2 and GLUT5. Conclusions: Intestinal NCOR1 and SMRT act in tandem to regulate glucose levels and body weight. This in part may be mediated by regulation of intestinal carbohydrate transporters.

Nuclear Receptor Corepressors are Required for the Histone Deacetylase Activity of HDAC3 In Vivo

Project description:Histone deacetylase 3 (HDAC3) is an epigenome-modifying enzyme that is required for normal mouse development and tissue-specific functions. In vitro, HDAC3 protein itself has minimal enzyme activity, but gains its histone deacetylation function from stable association with the conserved deacetylase activation domain (DAD) contained in nuclear receptor corepressors NCOR1 and SMRT. Here we show that HDAC3 enzyme activity is undetectable in mice bearing point mutations in the DAD of both NCOR1 and SMRT (NS-DADm), despite normal levels of HDAC3 protein. Local histone acetylation is increased, and genomic HDAC3 recruitment is reduced though not abrogated. Remarkably, the NS-DADm mice are born and live to adulthood, whereas genetic deletion of HDAC3 is embryonic lethal. These findings demonstrate that nuclear receptor corepressors are required for HDAC3 enzyme activity in vivo, and suggest that a deacetylase-independent function of HDAC3 may be required for life. This SuperSeries is composed of the SubSeries listed below. Refer to individual Series.

NCoR1 limits angiogenic capacity by altering Notch signaling [RNA]

Project description:Corepressors negatively regulate gene expression by chromatin compaction. Targeted regulation of gene expression could provide a means to control endothelial cell phenotype. We hypothesize that by targeting corepressor proteins, endothelial angiogenic function can be improved. To study this, the expression and function of nuclear corepressors in human umbilical vein endothelial cells (HUVEC) and in murine organ culture was studied. RNA-seq revealed that nuclear receptor corepressor 1 (NCoR1), Silencing Mediator of Retinoid and Thyroid hormone receptors (SMRT) and repressor element-1 silencing transcription factor (REST) are the highest expressed corepressors in HUVECs. Knockout and knockdown strategies demonstrated that the depletion of NCoR1 increased the angiogenic capacity of endothelial cells, whereas depletion of SMRT or REST did not. Interestingly, the effect was VEGF signaling independent. NCoR1 depletion significantly upregulated angiogenesis-associated genes, especially tip cell genes, including ESM1, DLL4 and NOTCH4, as observed by RNA- and ATAC-seq. Confrontation assays comparing cells with and without NCoR1-deficiency revealed that loss of NCoR1 promotes a tip-cell position during spheroid sprouting. Moreover, a proximity ligation assay identified NCoR1 as a direct binding partner of the Notch-signaling-related transcription factor RBPJk. Luciferase assays showed that siRNA-mediated knockdown of NCoR1 promotes RBPJk activity. Furthermore, NCoR1 downregulation prompts upregulation of several elements in the Notch signaling cascade. Downregulation of NOTCH4, but not NOTCH1, prevented the positive effect of NCoR1 knockdown on spheroid outgrowth. Collectively, these data indicate that decreasing NCOR1 expression is an attractive approach to promote angiogenic function.

SMRT-RID mutation linked to Type I Pneumocyte Associated Respiratory Distress Syndrome via TR repression

Project description:We show that knock-in mutations of the nuclear corepressor SMRT in C57Bl6 mice (SMRTmRID) produces a novel respiratory distress syndrome (RDS) due to prematurity of the type I pneumocyte. Treatment with the anti-thyroid hormone drug, propylthiouracil (PTU), completely rescues the SMRT-induced RDS, suggesting an unrecognized and essential role for the thyroid hormone receptor (TR) in lung development. We show that TR and SMRT control type I pneumocyte differentiation through Klf2, which in turn appears to directly activate the type I pneumocyte gene program. Conversely, mice without lung Klf2 lack mature type I pneumocytes and die shortly after birth, closely recapitulating the SMRTmRID phenotype. These results identify a second nuclear receptor, the TR, in type I pneumocyte differentiation and suggest a new type of therapeutic option in the treatment of glucocorticoid non-responsive RDS. Total RNA was obtained from WT and SMRT-RID E18.5 lungs of embryos from mothers treated with Diet containing 0.15% PTU or control chow for 2 days (from E16.5).
