Cilia and the exocyst are involved in urinary extracellular vesicle production and content

ABSTRACT: A recently proposed model of cell-cell communication, called “urocrine signaling”, hypothesizes that small (50-150 mm) extracellular vesicles (EVs) carry signals to “downstream” kidney tubule cells. We previously showed that the exocyst, a highly-conserved eight-protein (Exoc1-8) trafficking complex, is necessary for ciliogenesis, we show that the EV number released from MDCK cells was increased in EXOC5 OE, while it was decreased in Exoc5 KD, compared to control. To determine how Exoc5 changes the composition of EVs, we isolated EVs from Exoc5 control, KD, and OE MDCK cells, and subjected them mass spectrometry-based proteomic analysis to determine the protein composition of the EVs. By dendrogram, heat map, and principle component analysis, the protein content of the EVs was significantly different in Exoc5 KD, EXOC5 OE, and control MDCK cells. To confirm the proteomic results, we examined, by Western blot analysis, expression of the small guanosine triphosphate (GTP)-binding protein ADP-ribosylation factor (Arf6) and the epidermal growth factor receptor kinase substrate 8-like protein 2 (Eps8L2).

The recently proposed idea of "urocrine signaling" hypothesizes that small secreted extracellular vesicles (EVs) contain proteins that transmit signals to distant cells. However, the role of renal primary cilia in EV production and content is unclear. We previously showed that the exocyst, a highly conserved trafficking complex, is necessary for ciliogenesis; that it is present in human urinary EVs; that knockdown (KD) of exocyst complex component 5 (EXOC5), a central exocyst component, results ...[more]

Project description:Loss of expression of the cell-cell adhesion molecule E-cadherin is an essential event for epithelial-mesenchymal transition (EMT), a process that allows cell migration in the developing embryo and during tumour invasion. Transcriptional repression has emerged as the main mechanism responsible for E-cadherin downregulation in most carcinomas. Recently, we have identified the class I HLH transcriptional regulator E2-2 (ITF2), in a yeast one hybrid screen designed to identify transcriptional repressors interacting with the E-pal element of the murine E-cadherin promoter. The E2-2 gene codifies two isoforms that differ in their N-terminal regions but their specific functions remain unknown. In the present work we show that both E2-2A and E2-2B induce a complete EMT, in MDCK cells, with loss of E-cadherin expression, gain of mesenchymal markers and acquisition of motile and invasive properties. Although both isoforms repress E-cadherin promoter in MDCK cells, only the E2-2B isoform does it in other epithelial cell lines. Notably, we found that E2-2B is upregulated at the mRNA level in MDCK cells after treatment with TGF-ï¢1, a key regulator of EMT. Upregulation of E2-2A/B factors was confirmed in MDCK cells overexpressing other EMT inducers, Snai1, Snai2 or E47. Interestingly, gene profiling studies indicate that bHLH E2-2 factors induce similar, yet distinct, genetic programs from those induced by bHLH E47 in MDCK cells. These results, together with the expression pattern observed in early mouse embryos, support a new role for E2-2A/B in E-cadherin regulation and EMT, and suggest an interesting interplay between bHLH factors and other E-cadherin repressors. Keywords: Genetic Modification (overexpression of E-cadherin repressors) The Oncochip microarray platform v2.0 contains 13,824 clones printed by duplicate corresponding to 9,300 different genes. Each of the MDCK transfectants (E22A, E22B) were labeled with dUTP-Cy5 and hybridized against the dUTP-Cy3-labeled MDCK-CMV controls. One additional hybridizations using reciprocal fluorochrome labeling were performed (dye-swap) in each clone. Thus, a total of two hybridizations were performed for each condition.
