Project description:Proteases control complex tissue responses by modulating inflammation, cell proliferation and migration, and matrix remodeling. All these processes are orchestrated in cutaneous wound healing to restore the skin’s barrier function upon injury. Altered protease activity has been implicated in the pathogenesis of healing impairments, and proteases are important targets in diagnosis and therapy of this pathology. Global assessment of proteolysis at critical turning points after injury will define crucial events in acute healing that might be disturbed in healing disorders. As optimal biospecimens, wound exudates contain an ideal proteome to detect extracellular proteolytic events, are non-invasively accessible, and can be collected at multiple time points along the healing process from the same wound in the clinics. In this study, we applied multiplexed Terminal Amine Isotopic Labeling of Substrates (TAILS) to globally assess proteolysis in early phases of cutaneous wound healing. By quantitative analysis of proteins and protein N termini in wound fluids from a clinically relevant pig wound model, we identified more than 650 proteins and discerned major healing phases through distinctive abundance clustering of markers of inflammation, granulation tissue formation, and re-epithelialization. TAILS revealed a high degree of proteolysis at all time points after injury by detecting almost 1300 N-terminal peptides in ~450 proteins, most of which could not be assigned to known mature protein N termini. Quantitative positional proteomics mapped pivotal interdependent processing events in the blood coagulation cascade, detailed activating thrombin cleavages in vivo, and temporally discerned clotting and fibrinolysis during the healing process. Similarly, we found virtually all major cleavages in complement activation and inactivation and demonstrated time-dependent changes in the proteolytic potential of the wound milieu by detecting processing of complement C3 at distinct time points after wounding and by different proteases.

Project description:Identification of early processes leading to complex tissue pathologies, such as inflammatory bowel diseases, poses a major scientific and clinical challenge that is imperative for improved diagnosis and treatment. Most studies of inflammation onset focus on cellular processes and signaling molecules, while overlooking the environment in which they take place, the continuously remodeled extracellular matrix. In this study, we used colitis models for investigating extracellular-matrix dynamics during disease onset, while treating the matrix as a complete and defined entity. Through the analysis of matrix structure, stiffness and composition, we unexpectedly revealed that even prior to the first clinical symptoms, the colon displays its own unique extracellular-matrix signature and found specific markers of clinical potential, which were also validated in human subjects. We also show that the emergence of this pre-symptomatic matrix is mediated by subclinical infiltration of immune cells bearing remodeling enzymes. Remarkably, whether the inflammation is chronic or acute, its matrix signature converges at pre-symptomatic states. We suggest that the existence of a pre-symptomatic extracellular-matrix is general and relevant to a wide range of diseases.

Project description:Background: The human genome consists of considerable portions derived from retroviruses inherited for millions of years. So-called human endogenous retroviruses (HERVs) are usually severely mutated, yet some coding-competent HERVs exist. The HERV-K(HML-2) group includes evolutionarily young proviruses that still encode typical retroviral proteins. HERV-K(HML-2) has been implicated in various human diseases because transcription is often upregulated and some of the encoded proteins are known to affect cell biology. HERV-K(HML-2) Protease (Pro) has received little attention so far, although it appears expressed in some disease contexts and other retroviral proteases are known to process cellular proteins. Results: We set out to identify human cellular proteins being substrates of HERV-K(HML-2) Pro employing a modified Terminal Amine Isotopic Labeling of Substrates (TAILS) procedure. Thousands of human proteins were identified as significantly processed by HERV-K(HML-2) Pro. Identified proteins locate to various cellular compartments and participate in diverse, often disease-relevant cellular processes. We verified cleavage of a majority of selected human proteins in vitro and in vivo. Conclusions: Hundreds, if not thousands of cellular proteins are potential substrates of HERV-K(HML-2) Pro. It is conceivable that even low-level expression of HERV-K(HML-2) Pro has a functional impact on cell biology and thus relevance for human diseases. Specific studies will be required to elucidate effects of HERV-K(HML-2) Pro expression regarding human substrate proteins, cell biology and disease. Endogenous retrovirus-encoded Pro activity may also be relevant for disease development in species other than human.

Project description:Aberrant matrix turnover with elevated matrix proteolysis is a hallmark of tendon pathology. While tendon disease mechanisms remain obscure, mechanical cues are central regulators. Unloading of tendon explants in standard culture conditions provokes rapid cell-mediated tissue breakdown. Here we show that biological response to tissue unloading depends on the mimicked physiological context. Our experiments reveal that explanted tendon tissues remain functionally stable in a simulated avascular niche of low temperature and oxygen, regardless of the presence of serum. This hyperthermic and hyperoxic niche-dependent catabolic switch was shown by whole transcriptome analysis (RNA-seq) to be a strong pathological driver of an immune-modulatory phenotype, with a stress response to reactive oxygen species (ROS) and associated activation of catabolic extracellular matrix proteolysis that involved lysosomal activation and transcription of a range of proteolytic enzymes. Secretomic and degradomic analysis through terminal amine isotopic labeling of substrates (TAILS) confirmed that proteolytic activity in unloaded tissues was strongly niche dependent. Through targeted pharmacological inhibition we isolated ROS mediated oxidative stress as a major checkpoint for matrix proteolysis. We conclude from these data that the tendon stromal compartment responds to traumatic mechanical unloading in a manner that is highly dependent on the extrinsic niche, with oxidative stress response gating the proteolytic breakdown of the functional collagen backbone.

Project description:According to the /N-end rule pathway, proteins with basic N-termini are targeted for degradation by the Arabidopsis thaliana E3 ligase, PROTEOLYSIS6 (PRT6). Here, we undertook a quantitative proteomics study of N-end rule mutant prt6, to investigate the impact of this pathway on the etiolated seedling. Isolation of N-terminal peptides using terminal amine isotope labelling of samples (TAILS) combined with Tandem mass tag (TMT) identified over 3000 unique N-termini. Trypsin and GluC have advantage of identification of Acetylated or neo-peptides respectively. Seed storage proteins and Cysteine proteins actives are differentially regulated in abundance in the prt6 mutants, which are represent downstream targets of transcription factors known to be N-end rule substrates.

Project description:Dysregulated protease activity is often implicated in the initiation of inflammation and immune cell recruitment in gastrointestinal inflammatory diseases. Using N-terminomics/TAILS (terminal amine isotopic labeling of substrates), we compared proteases, along with their substrates and inhibitors, between colonic mucosal biopsies of healthy patients and those with ulcerative colitis (UC). Among the 1,642 N-termini enriched using TAILS, increased endogenous processing of proteins was identified in UC compared to healthy patients. Changes in the reactome pathways for proteins associated with metabolism, adherens junction proteins (E-cadherin, liver-intestinal cadherin, catenin alpha-1 and catenin delta-1) and neutrophil degranulation were identified between the two groups. Increased neutrophil infiltration and distinct proteases observed in ulcerative colitis may result in extensive break down, altered processing or increased remodeling of adherens junctions and other cellular functions. Analysis of the proteolytic preferred cleavage sites indicated that the majority of proteolytic activity and processing comes from host proteases, but that key microbial proteases may also play a role in maintaining homeostasis. Thus, the identification of distinct proteases and processing of their substrates improves the understanding of dysregulated proteolysis in normal intestinal physiology and ulcerative colitis.

Project description:Infective endocarditis results in the growth of a vegetative mass on native or bio prosthetic valves hindering function and increasing risk of thromboses. This study set out to determine the proteomic composition of these vegetations including the influence of different micro-organisms and the proteases known to be present. Our data has allowed us to describe for first time the influence different infectious organisms have on vegetation growth. Including the contribution of the immune response and circulatory proteins/cells make in composing a vegetation. Furthermore, we describe the protease activity and both known and novel cleavage sites in a plethora of targets. This data provides a deep insight into the homogeneity and heterogeneity of vegetation composition.
