Prenylation in Th1 cells assessed by click chemistry

ABSTRACT: T helper cell activation is highly regulated to ensure proper immune responses while avoiding autoimmune reactions. Cell functions are determined by regulation of various levels of gene expression including posttranslational modifications of proteins. Protein prenylation is a posttranslational modification, which can be influenced by statin treatment and was shown to play a role in the differentiation and activation of various T cell populations, including Th1 cells. However, it is largely unknown which proteins are prenylated in Th1 cells and what the effect of statin treatment on protein prenylation is in this context. Here, using mass spectrometry, we show the comprehensive identification of prenylated proteins in human Th1 cells including changes during their activation, before analyzing the effect of statin treatment on this process. This approach additionally uncovered the prenylation of proteins, not yet known to be prenylated, including so far unknown motifs. These data provide valuable insights into novel aspects of protein prenylation in Th1 cell activation and deepen our understanding of the intended or unintended effects of statin treatment on the human immune system.

Farnesylation in Th1 cells assessed by click chemistry

Project description:T helper cell activation is highly regulated to ensure proper immune responses while avoiding autoimmune reactions. Cell functions are determined by regulation of various levels of gene expression including posttranslational modifications of proteins. Protein prenylation is a posttranslational modification, where either a farnesyl- or a geranylgeranyl residue is added to a protein. It was shown to play a role in the differentiation and activation of various T cell populations, including Th1 cells. However, it is largely unknown which proteins are prenylated in Th1 cells and what the effect of farnesyl transferase inhibitor treatment, which blocks farnesylation of proteins, on protein prenylation is in this context. Here, using mass spectrometry, we show the identification of farnesylated proteins in human Th1 cells. This approach additionally uncovered the farnesylation of proteins, not yet known to be prenylated. These data provide valuable insights into novel aspects of protein prenylation in Th1 cell activation and deepen our understanding of the effects of farnesyl transferase inhibitor treatment on the human immune system.

Transcription profiling by array of skin from patients with atopic dermatitis before and after treatment with narrow-band UVB radiation

Project description:Background: Atopic dermatitis (AD) is a common inflammatory skin disease exhibiting a predominantly Th2/"T22" immune activation and a defective epidermal barrier. Narrow-band UVB (NB-UVB) is considered an efficient treatment for moderate to severe AD. In psoriasis, NB-UVB has been found to suppress the Th1/Th17 immune polarization with subsequent reversal of epidermal hyperplasia. The immunomodulatory effects of this treatment are largely unknown in AD. Our study evaluates the effects of NB-UVB on immune and barrier abnormalities in AD, aiming to establish reversibility of disease and biomarkers of therapeutic response. Methods: 12 moderate-to-severe chronic AD patients received NB-UVB phototherapy 3 times weekly for up to 12 weeks. Lesional and non-lesional skin biopsies were obtained before and after treatment and evaluated by gene-expression and immunohistochemistry studies. Results: All patients had at least a 50% reduction in SCORing of AD (SCORAD) index with NB-UVB phototherapy. The Th2, T22, and Th1 immune pathways were suppressed and measures of epidermal hyperplasia and differentiation also normalized after phototherapy. The reversal of disease activity was associated with elimination of inflammatory leukocytes, Th2/"T22"-associated cytokines and chemokines, and normalized expression of barrier proteins. Conclusions: Our study shows reversal of both the epidermal defects and underlying immune activation in AD. By determining the correlation of variables with therapeutic response, we have defined a set of biomarkers of disease response that associate resolved Th2 and T22 inflammation with reversal of barrier pathology. This data supports the "inside-out" hypothesis of AD, suggesting that it is a disease primarily driven by an immune stimulus. genomic profiling of treatment effect of NB-UVB in AD in both lesional and non-lesional AD skin from 10 patients.

Analysis of the inflammatory transcription profiles of WT and Bid microglia

Project description:Apoptosis is a controlled cell-death process mediated inter alia by proteins of the Bcl-2 family. Some proteins previously shown to promote the apoptotic process were found to have non-apoptotic functions as well. Microglia, the resident immune cells of the central nervous system, respond to brain derangements by becoming activated to contend with the brain damage. Activated microglia can also undergo activation-induced cell death. Previous studies have addressed the role of core apoptotic proteins in the death process, but whether or not these proteins also play a role in the activation process has not been reported. Here we explore the effect of the BH3-only protein Bid on the immunological features of microglia by subjecting both WT and Bid deficient primary neonatal microglial cultures to LPS treatment (100 ng/ml, 3h) or left untreated (control) and analyzing their transcription profiles in order to study the role of Bid. 4 samples were analyzed. no replication.

Modification of maize peroxidases’ activity and proteome of roots and leaves in the presence of plant oligosaccharides and cadmium

Project description:We examined the effect of galactoglucomannan oligosaccharides (GGMOs) and/or Cd on the activity of peroxidases and the proteome of maize (Zea mays L.) roots and leaves. Our previous work confirmed that the application of GGMOs ameliorates symptoms of Cd stress in plants. Here, the plants were cultivated in hydroponics for 7 days, and the protein levels and peroxidase activity were estimated in intracellular, basic cell wall, and acidic cell wall protein fractions. The activity of peroxidases varied between the plant organs, as well as among the fractions and treatments. The application of GGMOs on plants suffering from Cd stress did not significantly influence the levels of peroxidases but modulated their activity, which implies posttranslational regulation. Next, we focused on the characterisation of proteins with significant changes in their levels in the GGMOs + Cd treatment. The changes in the level of various proteins (e.g., related to the defence reactions, cell wall structure/metabolism, and activation of plant hormones) caused by GGMOs and Cd presence suggested possible mechanisms of action of these oligosaccharides, which improve vitality of maize seedlings exposed to Cd.

NMR based metabolomics study of Y2 receptor activation by neuropeptide Y in the SK-N-BE2 human neuroblastoma cell line

Project description:Neuropeptide Y (NPY) and its Y2 receptors (Y2R) play an important role in regulating growth of various tumors and are highly expressed in human neuroblastoma brain tumors. Cell lines derived from neuroblastoma brain tumors provide a good model to study the consequences of NPY activation of Y2R in tumor metabolism. In this study, the metabolic response to activation and inhibition of Y2R was examined in the human neuroblastoma cell line SK-N-BE2 using high-resolution nuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopy (NMR). Three treatments were evaluated: (1) activation of Y2R with NPY, (2) blocking Y2R with BIIE0246, and (3) treatment of cells with both NPY and BIIE. The largest metabolic changes were observed for NPY activation of Y2R. The principal response to NPY activation of Y2R was increased glycolysis (Warburg effect). Our results also showed depleted intracellular nutrients in NPY activated cells, which may have been due to the high rate of conversion of glucose to lactate, glycine and alanine. All amino acids except glutamine were increased in response to Y2R activation, implying increased autophagic degradation of proteins. TCA cycle intermediates were not detected, possibly due to low steady-state concentrations, but the increase of glutamate and its high correlation with glucose provided evidence of increased TCA activity. The changes of most metabolites observed upon NPY treatment were reversed with BIIE treatment. In summary, our study indicates that NPY activation of Y2R in human neuroblastoma cells stimulates glycolysis, glutaminolysis and possibly TCA activity.

Genome-scale CRISPR screen reveals neddylation to contribute to cisplatin resistance of testicular germ cell tumors II

Project description:Type II testicular germ cell tumors (TGCT) are the most prevalent tumors in young men. Patients suffering from cisplatin resistant TGCTs are facing very poor prognosis demanding novel therapeutic options. Neddylation is a known posttranslational modification mediating many important biological processes including tumorigenesis. Overactivation of neddylation pathway promotes carcinogenesis and tumor progression in various entities by inducing proteasomal degradation of tumor suppressors (e.g., p21, p27). We used a genome-scale CRISPR/Cas9 activation screen to identify cisplatin resistance factors. TGCT cell lines were treated with the neddylation inhibitor (MLN4924)/cisplatin/combination and investigated for changes in viability (XTT assay), apoptosis/cell cycle (flow cytometry) as well as in the transcriptome (3’mRNA sequencing). NAE1 overexpression was detected in cisplatin resistant colonies from the CRISPR screen. Inhibition of neddylation using MLN4924 increased cisplatin cytotoxicity in TGCT cell lines and sensitized cisplatin resistant cells towards cisplatin. Apoptosis, G2/M-phase cell cycle arrest, gH2A.X/P27 accumulation and mesoderm/endoderm differentiation was observed in TGCT cells while fibroblast cells were unaffected. We identified overactivation of neddylation as a factor for cisplatin resistance in TGCTs and highlighted the additive effect of NAE1 inhibition by MLN4924 in combination with cisplatin as a novel treatment option for TGCTs.

Genome-wide analysis of MEF2-dependent gene expression in human NSCs

Project description:Redox-mediated posttranslational modifications represent a molecular switch that controls major mechanisms of cell function. Nitric oxide (NO) can mediate redox reactions via S-nitrosylation, representing transfer of an NO group to a critical protein thiol. NO is known to modulate neurogenesis and neuronal survival in various brain regions in disparate neurodegenerative conditions. However, a unifying molecular mechanism linking these phenomena remains unknown. Here we report that S-nitrosylation of myocyte enhancer factor 2 (MEF2) transcription factors acts as a redox switch to inhibit both neurogenesis and neuronal survival. Structure-based analysis reveals that MEF2 dimerization creates a pocket, facilitating S-nitrosylation at an evolutionally conserved cysteine residue in the DNA binding domain. S-Nitrosylation disrupts MEF2-DNA binding and transcriptional activity, leading to impaired neurogenesis and survival in vitro and in vivo. Our data define a novel molecular switch whereby redox-mediated posttranslational modification controls both neurogenesis and neurodegeneration via a single transcriptional signaling cascade.
