Project description:Introduction: The mechanisms governing synaptonuclear transport, and the transcriptional pathways that are at the core of neuronal disorders are poorly understood. The importin family of nuclear import factors has pivotal roles in such pathways, due to their involvement in intracellular transport from both synapse to soma and cytoplasm to nucleus. Mammals express six different isoforms of importin α, which bind an Importin β to form transport complexes for specific cargoes. Methods: We addressed the roles of importin α isoforms in mammalian CNS by evaluation of a systematic series of importin α knockout mice. A comprehensive battery of behavioral tests was used to investigate spontaneous and novelty-induced locomotion, basal ganglia function, motor coordination, neuromuscular integration, anxiety-related behaviors and memory. Subsequent analyses using acute-brain slice electrophysiology, RNA-seq, bioinformatics, imaging and pharmacology was used in order to delineate the contribution of genes and signaling pathways involved in the identified phenotype and screen for new therapeutic approaches. Results and Discussion: During the course of comprehensive behavioral profiling of importin α mouse mutants, we identified an importin α knockout (KO) mouse with significantly reduced anxiety levels. Electrophysiological recordings in acute hippocampal slices showed a reduced short-term and presynaptic plasticity (paired-pulse facilitation deficit, lower PTP), while LTP was not affected in these mutants. We then performed transcriptional profiling (RNA-seq) from hippocampal extracts of wild type versus mutant animals after exposure to an anxiogenic drug. Computational analysis revealed differences in the expression of genes and the involvement of transcription factors. Drugs that activate LXR or the Sphingosine 1 phosphate receptor have robust anxiolytic effects, while a Sphk1 blocker reverses anxiolysis in the importin α5 knockout mouse. Thus, importin α5 influences anxiety by regulating nuclear import in neurons.

Project description:Here we show that importin alpha (α) 3 (KPNA4) controls pain responsiveness in peripheral sensory neurons. An importin α3 knockout mouse showed reduced responsiveness to noxious heat or chemical pain, as well as greater tolerance to neuropathic pain. Similar findings were obtained upon acute knockdown of importin α3 in peripheral sensory neurons. Transcriptome analyses and immunohistochemistry indicated that importin α 3 deficient neurons were impaired in nuclear import of c-Fos. Forty days after spared nerve injury acute down-regulation of importin α3, c-FOS, Jun and the dominat negative AAV9 viruses rescue the neuropathic pain phenotype. In silico screens identified importin α3 deficiency mimicking drug leads that attenuated neuropathic pain and reduced c-Fos nuclear localization. Hence, perturbing c-Fos nuclear import by importin α3 can provide analgesia at peripheral loci in the nervous system

Project description:Gene-expression profiles of liver and hepatocellular carcinoma induced by diethylnitrosamine (DEN) in KLF6 +/- and wild type KLF6 mice. Inactivation of the KLF6 tumor suppressor is common in HCC due to hepatitis C virus (HCV), consistent with its anti-proliferative activity in HCC-derived cell lines and in hepatocytes of transgenic mice. We have evaluated the impact of KLF6 depletion on human HCC and experimental hepatocarcinogenesis. In patients with surgically resected HCC, those with significantly reduced tumor expression of KLF6 had a significantly decreased survival. We modeled this event in KLF6 +/- mice, which displayed significantly more tumorigenicity than KLF6 +/+ animals in response to the hepatic carcinogen DEN, associated with recapitulation of gene signatures in both surrounding tissue and tumors that are associated with aggressive human HCCs. In DNA microarrays, mdm2 mRNA expression was increased in tumors from KLF6 +/- compared to KLF6 +/+ mice, which was validated by realtime qPCR and Western blot in both human HCC and DEN-induced murine tumors. Moreover, chromosomal immunoprecipitation and co-transfection assays established the P2 intronic promoter of mdm2 as a bona fide transcriptional target repressed by KLF6. Whereas KLF6 over-expression in HCC cell lines led to reduced MDM2 levels and increased p53 protein and transcriptional activity, reduction in KLF6 by siRNA led to increased MDM2 and reduced p53. Our findings indicate that KLF6 deficiency contributes significantly to the carcinogenic milieu in human and murine HCC, and uncover a novel tumor suppressor activity of KLF6 in HCC, by linking its transcriptional repression of MDM2 to stabilization of p53.

After selection with neomycin, the ES clones were injected into C57BL/6 mouse blastocysts and implanted into pseudo pregnant females; two lines of KLF6 +/- mice were generated from the resulting chimeric animals (Blood 107;1357, Oncogene 26;4428). Whereas KLF6 -/- mice are embryonic lethal, KLF6 +/- animals had no demonstrable abnormalities in the absence of any stressor. Male KLF6 +/- mice were bred with wild type C57BL/6 to generate mixed litters of KLF6 +/- and KLF6 +/+ animals. Progeny were genotyped using PCR-amplified tail DNA, using primers as previously described (Oncogene 26;4428). Amplified fragments were separated on a 2.5% agarose gel, revealing bands of ~200 bp (wild type KLF6) and ~100 bp (Neo), as expected. At 2 weeks of age, KLF6 +/+ and KLF6 +/- mice were injected intraperitoneally with either a single dose of diethyl nitrosamine (DEN), 5 µg/g body weight in 100 µl of saline, or vehicle alone. Vehicle and DEN-treated mice were maintained on standard chow, and then sacrificed 3, 6 or 9 months later. At the time of sacrifice the animals were weighed, and blood and liver samples were harvested for analysis and tumor quantification.

Project description:Importin-beta family proteins are nucleocytoplasmic transport receptors (NTRs), and they transport most nuclear proteins as their cargoes into and out of the nuclei. Human cells have 20 species of importin-beta family NTRs, of which 10 (importin-beta, transportin-1, -2, -SR, importin-4, -5, -7, -8, -9, and -11) are nuclear import receptors and 2 (importin-13, and exportin-4) are bi-directional receptors. Here, we identified the import cargo proteins of these 12 NTRs by a method called SILAC-Tp, which employs stable isotope labeling with amino acids in cell culture (SILAC), an in vitro reconstituted transport system, and LC-MS/MS.
