A Surface Shave: Revealing the Differentially-Expressed Apical Uroglycome

ABSTRACT: This study aimed to investigate the highly-differentiated urothelial apical surface glycome. The functions of the mammalian urothelium, lining the majority of the urinary tract and providing a barrier against toxins in urine, are dependent on the correct differentiation of urothelial cells, relying on protein expression, modification and complex assembly to regulate the formation of multiple differentiated cell layers. Protein glycosylation, a poorly studied aspect of urothelial differentiation, contributes to the apical glycome and is implicated in the development of urothelial diseases. To enable surface glycome characterization, we have developed a method to collect the tissue apical surface N- and O-glycans. A simple, novel device using basic laboratory supplies was developed for enzymatic shaving of the luminal urothelial surface, with subsequent release and mass spectrometric analysis of apical surface O- and N-glycans; the first normal mammalian urothelial N-glycome to be defined. Trypsinization of superficial glycoproteins was tracked using immunolabelling of the apically-expressed uroplakin 3a protein to optimize enzymatic release, without compromising the integrity of the superficial urothelial layer. The approach developed for releasing apical tissue surface glycans allowed comparison with the N-glycome of total porcine urothelial cells, and thus identification of apical surface glycans as candidates implicated in urothelial barrier function.

SSSMuG: Same Sample Sequential Multi-Glycomics

Project description:The mammalian glycome is structurally complex and diverse, composed of many glycan classes such as N- and O-linked glycans, glycosaminoglycans (GAGs), glycosphingolipids (GSLs) and other distinct glycan features such as polysialic acids (PolySia), sulfation and proteoglycan attachment stubs. Various methods are used to analyse these different components of the glycome, but they require pre-fractionated/partitioned samples to target each glycan class individually. To address this need for a knowledge of the relationship between the different glycan components of a biological system, we have developed a sequential release workflow for analysis of multiple conjugated glycan classes (PolySia, GAGs, GSL glycans, N-glycans O-glycans) from the same tissue lysate, termed SSSMuG: Same Sample Sequential Multi-Glycomics. With this sequential glycan release approach, five glycan classes were characterized (or four glycan classes plus proteomics) from a single sample using enzymatic or chemical release from the same spot immobilized on a polyvinylidene difluoride membrane. The various released glycan classes were then analysed by HPLC and/or MS techniques. Compared to single glycan class release approaches, SSSMuG is able to identify more glycans and more proteins with higher intensity analytical peaks and provides a better comparative normalisation of the different glycan classes of the complex glycome.

XBP1s Activation Globally Remodels N-Glycan Structure Distribution Patterns

Project description:The unfolded protein response (UPR), as its name implies, safeguards secretory pathway proteostasis. The most ancient arm of the UPR, the IRE1-activated, XBP1s-mediated transcriptional response, has roles in secretory pathway maturation beyond resolving proteostatic stress. Understanding the consequences of XBP1s’ transcriptional output for cellular processes is critical for elucidating mechanistic connections between XBP1s and development, immunity, and disease. Here, we show that a key functional consequence of XBP1s activation is a cell type-dependent shift in the distribution of N-glycan structures on endogenous membrane and secreted proteomes. XBP1s activity decreases sialylation of tri- and tetra-antennary N-glycans in the HEK293 membrane proteome and secretome, while substantially increasing the population of high mannose N-glycans only in the secretome. Related, but distinctive, signatures in the HEK293 N-glycome are observed when the entire UPR is activated in a stress-dependent manner using thapsigargin. In HeLa cells, stress-independent XBP1s activation increases the population of cell surface high mannose N-glycans and tetra-antennary N-glycans. mRNA profiling experiments suggest that the XBP1s-mediated remodeling of the N-glycome may re-flect a coordinated consequence of transcriptional resculpting of the N-glycan maturation pathway by XBP1s. The discovery of XBP1s-induced N-glycan structural remodeling on a glycome-wide scale suggests that XBP1s is a master regulator of N-glycan maturation. Moreover, because the sugars on cell surface proteins or on those proteins secreted from an XBP1s-activated cell can be molecularly distinct from those of an unactivated cell, these findings reveal a potential new mechanism for translating intracellular stress signaling pathways into al-tered interactions with the extracellular environment.

Analysis of single cell gene expression profile in hiPSC-derived NPCs

Project description:Single-cell sequencing has emerged as an indispensable technology to dissect the cellular heterogeneity, but never been applied to integrated analysis of glycans and RNA. Using oligonucleotide-labeled lectins, we developed a sequencing-based method to jointly analyze the glycome and the transcriptome in single cells. Using the developed method, we analyzed the relationship between the two modalities of human induced pluripotent stem cells during the differentiation into neural progenitor cells.

Proteomics of GPI-anchored proteins

Project description:GPI-anchored proteins (GPI-APs) are an important class of glycoproteins that are tethered to the surface of mammalian cells via the lipid glycosylphosphatidylinositol (GPI). GPI-APs have been implicated in many important cellular functions including cell adhesion, cell signaling, and immune regulation. Proteomic identification of mammalian GPI-APs en masse has been limited technically by poor sensitivity for these low abundance proteins and the use of methods that destroys cell integrity. Here we present methodology that permits identification of GPI-APs liberated directly from the surface of intact mammalian cells through exploitation of their appended glycans to enrich for these proteins ahead of LC-MS/MS analyses. We validate our approach in HeLa cells, identifying a greater number of GPI-APs from intact cells than has been previously identified from isolated HeLa membranes and a lipid raft preparation. We further apply our approach to define the cohort of endogenous GPI-APs that populate the distinct apical and basolateral membrane surfaces of polarized epithelial cell monolayers. Our approach provides a new method to achieve greater sensitivity in the identification of low abundance GPI-APs from the surface of live cells and the non-destructive nature of the method provides new opportunities for the temporal or spatial analysis of cellular GPI-AP expression and dynamics.

A Leaky Human Colon Model Reveals Uncoupled Apical/Basal Cytotoxicity in Early Clostridioides difficile Toxin Exposure

Project description:Clostridioides difficile (C. difficile) toxins A (TcdA) and B (TcdB) cause antibiotic-associated colitis, increasing morbidity and mortality. Accurate in vitro models are necessary to detect early toxicity kinetics, investigate disease etiology, and develop preclinical models for new therapies. Properties of cancer cell lines and organoids inherently limit these efforts. We developed adult stem cell-derived monolayers of differentiated human colonic epithelium (hCE) with barrier function, investigated the impact of toxin application to apical/basal aspects of monolayers, and evaluated whether a leaky epithelial barrier enhances toxicity. Single-cell RNA-sequencing (scRNAseq) mapped C. difficile-relevant genes to human gut epithelial lineages. Transcriptomics informed timing of stem cell differentiation to achieve in vitro colonocyte maturation like that observed in vivo. Transepithelial electrical resistance (TEER) and fluorescent dextran permeability assays measured cytotoxicity as barrier loss post-toxin exposure. Leaky epithelial barriers were induced with diclofenac. scRNAseq demonstrated broad and variable toxin receptor expression across human gut lineages. Absorptive colonocytes displayed generally enhanced toxin receptor, Rho GTPase, and cell junction expression. 22-day differentiated Caco-2 cells remained immature whereas hCE monolayers were similar to mature colonocytes. hCE monolayers exhibited high barrier function after 1-day differentiation. Basal TcdA/B application to monolayers caused greater toxicity and apoptosis. Diclofenac induced leaky hCE monolayers and enhanced toxicity of apical TcdB exposure. Apical/basal toxicities are uncoupled with more rapid onset and increased magnitude of basal toxicity. Leaky paracellular junctions enhance toxicity of apical TcdB exposure. hCE monolayers represent a physiologically relevant and sensitive culture system to evaluate the impact of microbial toxins on gut epithelium.

An Atlas of Human Glycosylation Pathways Enables Display of the Human Glycome by Gene Engineered Cells

Project description:The structural diversity of glycans on cells – the glycome – is vast and complex to decipher. Glycan arrays have played a pivotal role in exploring the informational content of glycans. Current glycan arrays display oligosaccharides generated by chemical and chemoenzymatic synthesis or isolated from biological sources and are used to report glycan hapten binding epitopes. Glycan arrays are limited resources, produced through considerable efforts, and they display individual saccharides without the natural context of other glycans and glycoconjugates at the cell surface. We usedmaps of glycosylation pathways to generate a library of isogenic HEK293 cells with combinatorially engineered glycosylation capacities designed to display and dissect the genetic, biosynthetic and structural basis for glycan binding epitopes in a natural context. This expandable and self-renewable cell-based glycan array reports glycosyltransferase genes required (or blocking) for interactions through logic sequential biosynthetic steps, which not only predicts essential structural features of involved glycans including the glycoconjugate context, but importantly provides instructions for enzymatic synthesis, recombinant production, and genetic strategies to dissect biological functions. The broad utility of this cell-based glycan array and its comprehensive read-out is demonstrated by dissecting glycan-binding specificities of microbial adhesins, and the discovery power is demonstrated by uncovering higher order binding of microbial adhesins to clustered patches of O-glycans organized by their presentation on proteins.

Multiomic profiling of medulloblastoma reveals subtype-specific targetable alterations at the proteome and N-glycan level

Project description:Medulloblastomas (MBs) are malignant pediatric brain tumors that are molecularly and clinically heterogenous. The application of omics technologies – mainly studying nucleic acids – has significantly improved MB classification and stratification, but treatment options are still unsatisfactory. The proteome and their N-glycans hold the potential to discover clinically relevant phenotypes and targetable pathways. We compile a harmonized proteome dataset of 167 MBs and integrate findings with DNA methylome, transcriptome and N-glycome data. We show six proteome MB subtypes, that can be assigned to two main molecular programs: transcription/translation (pSHHt, pWNT and pGroup3myc), and synapses/immunological processes (pSHHs, pGroup3 and pGroup4). Multiomic analysis reveals different conservation levels of proteome features across MB subtypes at the DNA methylome level. Aggressive pGroup3myc MBs and favourable pWNT MBs are most similar in cluster hierarchies concerning overall proteome patterns but show different protein abundances of the vincristine resistance-associated multiprotein complex TriC/CCT and of N-glycan turnover-associated factors. The N-glycome reflects proteome subtypes and complex-bisecting N-glycans characterize pGroup3myc tumors. Our results shed light on targetable alterations in MB and set a foundation for potential immunotherapies targeting glycan structures. This SuperSeries is composed of the SubSeries listed below.

Generalized low levels of serum N-glycans associates with young biological age and good physical condition

Project description:Caloric restriction (CR) can prolong life and ameliorate age-related diseases, thus its molecular basis might provide new insights for finding biomarker and intervention for aging and age-related disease. Glycosylation is an important post-translational modification, which can timely reflect the changes of intracellular state. Serum N-glycosylation was found changed with aging in humans and mice. CR is widely accepted as an effective anti-aging intervention in mice and could affect mouse serum fucosylated N-glycans. However, the effect of CR on the level of global N-glycans remains unknown. In order to explore whether CR affect the level of global N-glycans, we performed a comprehensive serum glycome profiling in mice of 30% calorie restriction group and ad libitum group at 7 time points across 60 weeks by MALDI-TOF-MS. At each time point, the majority of glycans, including galactosylated and high mannose glycans, showed a consistent low level in CR group. Interestingly, the minority of glycans which have O-acetylated sialic acid modification primarily on α2,6-linked sialic acid showed a consistent high level in CR group. Liver transcriptome analysis further revealed a decreased transcripts level of genes involved in N-glycan biosynthesis while increased level of acetyl-CoA production. This finding is consistent with changes in serum N-glycans and O-acetylated sialic acids. Therefore, we provided one possible molecular basis for the beneficial effect of CR from N-glycosylation perspective.
