Project description:p38 and JNK are activated in response to acute stress and inflammatory signals. Through modification of a plethora of substrates, these kinases profoundly re-shape cellular physiology for the optimal response to a harmful environment and/or an inflammatory state. Here, we utilized phospho-proteomics to identify several hundred substrates for both kinases. Our results indicate that the scale of signaling from p38 and JNK are of a similar magnitude. Among the many new targets, we highlight the regulation of the transcriptional regulators GIGYF1 and 2 by p38-dependent MK2 phosphorylation and 14-3-3 binding. We also show that the Golgi apparatus contains numerous substrates, and is a major target for regulation by p38 and JNK. When activated, these kinases mediate structural rearrangement of the Golgi apparatus which positively affects protein flux through the secretory system. Our work expands on our knowledge about p38 and JNK signaling with important biological ramifications.

Project description:Bis-2-chloroethyl sulfide (sulfur mustard, SM) is a potent alkylating agent and vesicant. Exposure to SM results in activation of numerous signaling cascades, including mitogen-activated protein kinase (MAPK) signaling pathways. These pathways include the Erk, p38, and JNK pathways, which are involved in cell growth, inflammation, and stress signaling. However, the precise roles of these pathways in SM toxicity have not been fully elucidated. We used Western blotting and microarray analysis to examine the activation and role of each pathway following SM exposure in primary human epidermal keratinocytes. Western blotting revealed increased phosphorylation of p38 and JNK following SM exposure; however, phosphorylation of Erk was equivocal, suggesting that growth conditions may impact activation of Erk by SM. We used pharmacologic inhibitors to target each MAPK and then compared the gene expression profiles to identify SM-induced gene networks regulated by each MAPK. Cells were pretreated with 10 µM SB 203580 (p38 inhibitor), PD 98059 (Erk inhibitor), or SP 600125 (JNK inhibitor) 60 minutes before exposure to 200 µM SM. Cells were harvested at 1h, 4h, and 8h post-exposure, and RNA was extracted for synthesis of microarray probes. Probes were hybridized to Affymetrix U133 Plus 2.0 arrays for gene expression profiling. Analysis of variance was performed to identify genes significantly modulated due to pharmacologic inhibition in SM-exposed cells. Pathway mapping confirmed alterations in SM-induced Erk, JNK, and p38 MAPK signaling due to pharmacologic inhibition. SM-induced expression of IL-8, IL-6, and TNF-alpha was decreased by p38 MAPK inhibition, but not by inhibition of other MAPKs. Based on the number of significant pathways mapped to each MAPK in the presence and absence of inhibitors, the p38 MAPK pathway appeared to be the MAPK pathway most responsive to SM exposure. Interestingly, pathway mapping of the microarray data identified potential cross-talk between MAPK signaling pathways and other pathways involved in SM-induced signaling. Mining of these results will increase our understanding of the role of MAPK pathways in SM-induced signal transduction and may identify potential therapeutic targets for medical countermeasure development.

Project description:Facioscapulohumoral muscular dystrophy (FSHD) is a progressive muscle wasting disease caused by misexpression of the DUX4 transcription factor. DUX4 expression in skeletal muscle cells results in a dramatic alteration in their transcriptional profile and cellular phenotype and subsequently, cell death. To gain insight into the kinetics of DUX4-induced stresses, we activated DUX4 expression in myoblasts and performed longitudinal RNA sequencing paired with proteomics and phosphoproteomics. This analysis revealed changes in cellular physiology such as DNA damage and altered mRNA splicing before detectable changes in protein levels. Implementation of phosphoproteomics uncovered that widespread changes in protein phosphorylation preceded changes in protein levels indicating that alterations in kinase signaling may play a role in DUX4-mediated stress and cell death. Here we demonstrate that two stress-responsive MAP kinase pathways, JNK and p38, are activated in response to DUX4 expression. Pharmacological inhibition of either of these pathways ameliorated DUX4-mediated cell death in myoblasts. These findings uncover JNK as a novel pathway involved in DUX4-mediated cell death, as well as provide additional insights into the role of the p38 pathway, a clinical target for the treatment of FSHD.

Project description:Facioscapulohumoral muscular dystrophy (FSHD) is caused by misexpression of the DUX4 transcription factor in skeletal muscle that results in transcriptional alterations, abnormal phenotypes, and cell death. To gain insight into the kinetics of DUX4-induced stresses, we activated DUX4 expression in myoblasts and performed longitudinal RNA sequencing paired with proteomics and phosphoproteomics. This analysis revealed changes in cellular physiology including DNA damage and altered mRNA splicing. Phosphoproteomic analysis uncovered widespread changes in protein phosphorylation rapidly following DUX4 induction indicating that alterations in kinase signaling may play a role in DUX4-mediated stress and cell death. Indeed, we demonstrate that two stress-responsive MAP kinase pathways, JNK and p38, are activated in response to DUX4 expression. Inhibition of each of these pathways ameliorated DUX4-mediated cell death in myoblasts. These findings uncover JNK as a novel pathway involved in DUX4-mediated cell death as well as provide additional insights into the role of the p38 pathway, a clinical target for the treatment of FSHD.

Project description:In primary melanoma, the amount of VEGF-C expression and lymphangiogenesis predict the probability of metastasis to sentinel nodes, but conditions boosting VEGF-C expression in melanoma are poorly characterized. By comparative mRNA expression analysis of a set of 22 human melanoma cell lines, we found a striking negative correlation between VEGF-C and MITF expression, which was confirmed by data mining in GEO databases of human melanoma Affymetrix arrays. Moreover, in human patients, high VEGF-C, and low MITF levels in primary melanoma significantly correlated with the chance of metastasis. Pathway analysis disclosed the respective JNK- and p38/MAPK activities as being responsible for the inverse regulation of VEGF-C and MITF. Predominant JNK signaling results in a VEGF-Clow/MITFhigh phenotype, these melanoma cells are highly proliferative, show low mobility and are poorly lymphangiogenic. Predominant p38 signaling results in a VEGF-Chigh/MITFlow phenotype, corresponding to a slowly cycling, highly mobile, lymphangiogenic and metastatic melanoma.

Project description:Epidermal keratinocytes respond to extracellular influences by activating cytoplasmic signal transduction pathways that change the transcriptional profiles of affected cells. To define responses to two such pathways, p38 and ERK, we used SB203580 and PD98059 as specific inhibitors, and identified the regulated genes after 1, 4, 24 and 48 hrs, using Affymetrix’ Hu133Av2 microarrays. Additionally, we compared genes specifically regulated by p38 and ERKs with those regulated by JNK and by all three pathways simultaneously. We find that the p38 pathway induces the expression of extracellular matrix and proliferation-associated genes, while suppressing microtubule-associated genes; the ERK pathway induces the expression of nuclear envelope and mRNA splicing proteins, while suppressing steroid synthesis and mitochondrial energy production enzymes. Both pathways promote epidermal differentiation and induce feedback inactivation of MAPK signaling. c-FOS, SRY and N-Myc appear to be the principal targets of the p38 pathway, Elk-1 SAP1 and HLH2 of ERK, while FREAC-4, ARNT and USF are common to both. The results for the first time comprehensively define the genes regulated by the p38 and ERK pathways in epidermal keratinocytes and suggest a list of targets potentially useful in therapeutic interventions. Human epidermal keratinocytes are grown in Keratinocyte Serum-Free Medium (Gibco) supplemented with 0.05 mg/ml bovine pituitary extract, 2.5 ng/ml epidermal growth factor, 0.09 mM CalCl2 and 1% penicillin/streptomycin (KGM). They are switched to Keratinocyte Serum Free-Media (Gibco) supplemented only with 1% penicillin/streptomycin (KBM) 24 h prior to commencing experiments. A set is left as controls, others treated with 5 uM JNK inhibitor SP600125, 15 uM p38 inhibitor SB203580, or 50 um ERK inhibitor PD98059. Timecourse of treated and parellel control samples over a 48 hr period was performed.

Project description:Inactivating mutations in the copper transporter Atp7b result in Wilson’s disease. The Atp7b-/- mouse develops hallmarks of Wilson’s disease. The activity of several nuclear receptors is decreased in Atp7b-/- mice, and nuclear receptors are critical for maintaining metabolic homeostasis. Therefore, we anticipated that Atp7b-/- mice would exhibit altered progression of diet-induced obesity, fatty liver, and insulin resistance. Following 10 weeks on a chow or Western-type diet (40% kcal fat), parameters of glucose and lipid homeostasis were measured. Hepatic metabolites were measured by LC-MS and correlated with transcriptomic data. Atp7b-/- mice fed a chow diet had lower fat mass and were more glucose tolerant than wild type (WT) littermate controls although body weights did not differ between genotypes. On Western diet, Atp7b-/- mice exhibited reduced adiposity and hepatic steatosis compared with WT controls. Atp7b-/- mice fed either diet were more insulin sensitive than WT controls; however, fasted Atp7b-/- mice exhibited hypoglycemia after administration of insulin, due to an impaired glucose counter-regulatory response, as evidenced by reduced hepatic glucose production. Coupling gene expression with metabolomic analyses, we observed striking changes in hepatic metabolic profiles in Atp7b-/- mice. In addition, the active phosphorylated form of AMP kinase was significantly increased in Atp7b-/- mice relative with WT controls. Alterations in hepatic metabolic profiles and nuclear receptor signaling were associated with improved glucose tolerance and insulin sensitivity, as well as impaired fasting glucose production in Atp7b-/- mice.

Project description:The H1069Q substitution in the liver-specific copper transporter ATP7B represents the major cause of Wilson disease. The mutated ATP7B undergoes rapid degradation in the endoplasmic reticulum (ER) and fails to reach copper excretion compartments thus causing severe copper toxicosis in patients. Modulating the ATP7B-H1069Q interactome was proposed as a rescue strategy but specific binding partners that might be targeted for mutant correction remain elusive. Here we try to identify a mutant-specific interactor for the pharmacological rescue of ATP7B-H1069Q.

Project description:Emerging coronaviruses (CoVs) primarily cause severe gastroenteric or respiratory diseases in humans and animals, for which no approved therapeutics are available so far. Here A9, a receptor tyrosine kinase inhibitors (RTKIs) of the tyrphostin class was identified as a robust inhibitor of TGEV (Transmissible gastroenteritis virus) infection in cell-based assays. Time-of-addition studies suggested that A9 mainly acts at post-adsorption stage of the TGEV life cycle. Moreover, it also exhibited potent antiviral activity against various coronavirus replication, including MHV, PEDV and FIPV. We further investigated the mechanism of action of A9 against TGEV infection in vitro with comparative phosphoproteomics analysis. We specifically identified the A9 target, p38 and JNK1, the downstream molecules of receptor tyrosine kinases (RTKs) as required for efficient TGEV replication in vitro through plaque assay, qRT-PCR and western blotting assays. Additionally, tests of p38 and JNK1 inhibitors also indicated that interventions targeting p38 was more effective in suppressing TGEV propagation than the JNK. In conclusion, these findings indicate that the receptor tyrosine kinase inhibitor A9 can directly inhibits TGEV replication and its inhibitory activity on TGEV replication mainly regulated by targeting p38, which provide vital clues to design novel drugs against coronavirus.
