CHIP controls the expression of the neuropeptide precursor protein VGF

ABSTRACT: CHIP is a neuroprotective E3-ubiquitin ligase that supports longevity and healthy ageing. Loss of CHIP function has a major impact on life expectancy in animal models, whilst in humans’ mutations that compromise the E3-ligase activity of CHIP are causative for forms of Spinocerebellar Ataxia (SCA) that are accompanied by cognitive decline and/or dementia. The pathways regulated by CHIP to maintain neuronal health remain to be discovered. Gene-edited neuroblastoma cells were produced and used as a model to study the effects of CHIP loss on the steady state proteome in the absence of proteotoxic stress. Label free quantitative proteomic analysis (SWATH-MS) highlighted VGF, a member of the neuropeptide precursor family of proteins, as being a dominant protein responding to loss of CHIP function. By studying the dependence of VGF expression on CHIP using SILAC and RNA-Seq we have defined a role for the ligase in regulated neuropeptide expression.

Pathway Analysis of Dominant CHIP E3 Ligase-Dependent Protein Steady State Changes Highlight a Role in Neuronal Cell Membrane Integrity Linked to the Actin Cytoskeleton

Project description:Functional integrity of the E3-ubiquitin ligase CHIP is essential for healthy aging in the brain. By virtue of its association with the core molecular chaperone machinery, studies into the physiological role(s) of CHIP have been dominated by its involvement in the quality control and degradation of unfolded, aggregated and/or mutated proteins. To elucidate the dominant CHIP-dependent changes in protein steady state levels in human neurons we conducted an unbiased proteomic analysis in genetically engineered wild-type and CHIP knockout iPSC-derived cortical neurons. Rather than a broad effect on protein homeostasis, pathway analysis highlighted a focused cohort of CHIP-responsive proteins involved in actin cytoskeleton signalling and membrane integrity. In support of the pathway analysis CHIP KO cell-lines had enhanced sensitivity to mechanical and chemical membrane damage. Consistent with recent studies on the identification of a non-canonical HSP-independent E3-activity for CHIP, the lack of general quality control defects in knock-out cells suggests that the major readout of CHIP function in cortical neurons is the regulation of native folded substrates involved in maintaining cellular ‘health’. Thus, CHIP-mediated regulation of the of cytoskeletal- and membrane-related proteins is likely to make a vital contribute to the neuroprotective activity of CHIP.

LC-MS/MS proteomics analysis of neuronal cells and secretomes with timsTOF Pro

Project description:The neuropeptide VGF was recently proposed as a neurodegeneration biomarker. The Parkinson's disease-related protein leucine-rich repeat kinase 2 (LRRK2) regulates endolysosomal dynamics, a process that involves SNARE-mediated membrane fusion and could regulate secretion. Here we investigate potential biochemical and functional links between LRRK2 and v-SNAREs. We find that LRRK2 directly interacts with the v-SNAREs VAMP4 and VAMP7. Secretomics reveals VGF secretory defects in VAMP4 and VAMP7 knockout (KO) neuronal cells. In contrast, VAMP2 KO "regulated secretion-null" and ATG5 KO "autophagy-null" cells release more VGF. VGF is partially associated with extracellular vesicles and LAMP1+ endolysosomes. LRRK2 expression increases VGF perinuclear localization and impairs its secretion. Retention using selective hooks (RUSH) assays show that a pool of VGF traffics through VAMP4+ and VAMP7+ compartments, and LRRK2 expression delays its transport to the cell periphery. Overexpression of LRRK2 or VAMP7-longin domain impairs VGF peripheral localization in primary cultured neurons. Altogether, our results suggest that LRRK2 might regulate VGF secretion via interaction with VAMP4 and VAMP7.

Quantitative secretomics identifies ligand-receptor pairs in pancreatic cancer that mediate bidirectional crosstalk between cancer stem cells and nociceptors

Project description:Pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC) is one of the deadliest and most metastatic cancers in human. PDACs respond poorly to therapies, partly due to cancer stem cells (CSCs) that self-renew, survive chemotherapies, metastasise and replenish the tumour. Factors secreted by tumour cells mediate autocrine/paracrine crosstalk with surrounding cells contributing to the stem cell niche but are still insufficiently characterised. Here we used quantitative SILAC proteomics to identify secreted factors enriched in CSC secretome compared to non-CSCs. Among them were GDF15 and VGF, factors involved in cachexia and pain stimuli. GDF15 and VGF promoted CSC self-renewal and growth through autocrine effects. TGFβ/Activin signalling lowered GDF15 and VGF expression via SMAD2/3-SMAD4-SNON, switching to ATF4-CREB-mediated induction upon cell stress. Co-culture of PDAC-CSCs and hESC-derived neural cells for mimicking cellular crosstalk in PDAC revealed that paracrine signalling via GDF15/VGF promoted nociceptor formation and neurite outgrowth. In turn, Substance P from neurons supported CSC self-renewal, EMT/migration and clonal evolution that was also impacted by SMAD4 genetic status. Lastly, the serum levels of GDF15 and VGF were elevated in PDAC patients suggesting their utility as biomarkers for PDAC detection. Collectively, our data uncovered that cachexia and pain signalling factors mediate the crosstalk between CSCs and nociceptors.

Tissue proteomics of splenic marginal zone lymphoma

Project description:Splenic marginal zone lymphoma (SMZL) is a rare chronic B lymphoproliferative disease, whose molecular pathogenesis is still not well established. For the first time a proteomic approach was undertaken to analyse the protein profiles of SMZL tissue. Western blot, immunohistochemical analysis and functional data mining were also performed in order to validate results, classify proteins, and explore their potential relationships. We demonstrated that SMZL is characterized by modulation of proteins related to energetic metabolism and apoptosis pathways. We also reported specific proteins (such as biliverdin reductase A, manganese superoxide dismutase, beta-2 microglobulin, growth factor receptor-bound protein 2, acidic leucine-rich nuclear phosphoprotein 32 family member A, and SET nuclear oncogene) directly involved in NF-kBand BCR pathways, as well as in chromatin remodelling and cytoskeleton. Our findings shed new light on SMZL pathogenesis and provide a basis for the future development of novel biomarkers.

ChIP-MS reveals the local chromatin composition by label-free quantitative proteomics

Project description:Chromatin immunoprecipitation (ChIP) has been a cornerstone for epigenetic analyses over the last decades, but even coupled to sequencing approaches (ChIP-seq), it is ultimately limited to one protein at a time. In a complementary effort, we here combined ChIP with label-free quantitative (LFQ) mass spectrometry (ChIP-MS) to interrogate local chromatin compositions. We demonstrate the versality of our approach at telomeres, with transcription factors, in tissue and by dCas9-driven locus-specific enrichment.

Evidence for the nuclear import of monomeric histones H3.1 & H4

Project description:We present here evidence that histones H3.1 and H4 can be imported into the nucleus as monomers in human cells. Using a tether-and-release system to study the cytosolic phase and import dynamics of newly synthesised histones, we find that H3.1 and H4 can be maintained as stable monomers in the cytosol in a tethered state. Cytosolically tethered histones are bound tightly to Importin- proteins (predominantly IPO4), but not to the histone specific chaperones NASP, ASF1a, RbAp46 (RBBP7) or HAT1, which reside in the nucleus in interphase cells. Release of monomeric histones from their cytosolic tether results in rapid nuclear translocation, dissociation with IPO4 and incorporation into chromatin at sites of replication. Quantitative analysis of histones bound to individual chaperones under steady-state conditions reveals an excess of H3 specifically associated with sNASP, suggesting that NASP can maintain a soluble, monomeric pool of H3 within the nucleus and may act as a nuclear receptor for newly imported histone. In summary, we propose that histones H3 and H4 are rapidly imported as monomeric units, forming heterodimers in the nucleus rather than the cytosol, with sNASP acting as a potential nuclear receptor for monomeric histone H3.

Mass spectrometric evidence for neuropeptide-amidating enzymes in C. elegans

Project description:Neuropeptides constitute a vast and functionally diverse family of neurochemical signaling molecules, and are widely involved in the regulation of various physiological processes. The nematode C. elegans is well-suited for the study of neuropeptide biochemistry and function, as neuropeptide biosynthesis enzymes are not essential for C. elegans viability. This permits the study of neuropeptide biosynthesis in mutants lacking certain neuropeptide-processing enzymes. Mass spectrometry has been used to study the effects of proprotein convertase and carboxypeptidase mutations on proteolytic processing of neuropeptide precursors and on the peptidome in C. elegans. However, the enzymes required for the last step in the production of many bioactive peptides – the carboxyterminal amidation reaction – have not been characterized in this manner. Here, we describe three genes that encode homologs of neuropeptide amidation enzymes in C. elegans and used tandem LC-MS to compare neuropeptides in wild-type animals with those in newly generated mutants for these putative amidation enzymes. We report that mutants lacking both a functional peptidylglycine α-hydroxylating monooxygenase (PHM) and a peptidylglycine α-amidating monooxygenase (PAM) had a severely altered neuropeptide profile and also a decreased number of offspring. Interestingly, single mutants of the amidation enzymes still expressed some fully processed amidated neuropeptides, indicating the existence of a redundant amidation mechanism in C. elegans. In summary, the key steps in neuropeptide-processing in C. elegans seem to be executed by redundant enzymes, and loss of these enzymes severely affects brood size, supporting the need of amidated peptides for C. elegans reproduction.

Comparative RNA-Seq in mouse prelimbic cortex (PL)

Project description:Major depressive disorder (MDD) is a prevalent and life-threatening illness in modern society. The susceptibility to MDD is profoundly influenced by environmental factors, such as stressful lifestyle or traumatic events, which could impose maladaptive transcriptional program through epigenetic regulation. However, the underlying molecular mechanisms remain elusive. Here we report that stress-susceptible rodents exhibit lower levels of histone crotonylation in the medial prefrontal cortex (mPFC), concurrent with regional upregulation of chromodomain Y-like (CDYL), a crotonyl-CoA hydratase and histone methyllysine reader. Overexpression of CDYL in the prelimbic cortex (PL), a sub-region of mPFC, increases microdefeat-induced social avoidance behaviors and anhedonia in mice. Conversely, knockdown of CDYL in PL prevents chronic social defeat stress-induced depression-like behaviors. Mechanistically, we show that CDYL inhibits structural synaptic plasticity mainly by transcriptional repression of neuropeptide VGF, and this activity is dependent on its dual effect on regional histone crotonylation and H3K27 tri-methylation on the VGF promoter. Together, our data indicate CDYL plays a critical role in regulating stress-induced depression-like behaviors, providing a potential therapeutic target for MDD.

VGF-derived peptide attenuates development of type 2 diabetes via enhancement of islet beta cell survival and function survival and function

Project description:Deterioration of functional islet β-cell mass is the final step in progression to Type 2 diabetes. We previously reported that overexpression of Nkx6.1 in rat islets has the dual effects of enhancing glucose-stimulated insulin secretion (GSIS) and increasing β-cell replication. Here we show that Nkx6.1 strongly upregulates the prohormone VGF in rat islets and that VGF is both necessary and sufficient for Nkx6.1-mediated enhancement of GSIS. Moreover, the VGF-derived peptide TLQP-21 potentiates GSIS in rat and human islets and improves glucose tolerance in vivo. Chronic injection of TLQP-21 in pre-diabetic ZDF rats preserves islet mass and slows diabetes onset. TLQP-21 prevents islet cell apoptosis by a pathway similar to that used by GLP-1, but independent of the GLP-1, GIP, or VIP receptors. Unlike GLP-1, TLQP-21 does not inhibit gastric emptying or increase heart rate. We conclude that a TLQP-21 is a novel agent for enhancing islet β-cell survival and function. We utilized a “sample x reference” experimental design strategy in which RNA extracted from rat pancreatic islets was hybridized to the microarray slide in the presence of labeled rat reference RNA (RRR, Stratagene, LaJolla, CA). Cultures were treated with adenoviruses expressing either the hamster form of Nkx6.1, the mouse form of Pdx1, or the beta-galactosidase enzyme. 3-5 biological replicates each representing independent islet isolations were used for microarray analysis. Briefly, five hundred nanograms of total RNA were used for gene expression profiling following reverse transcription and T-7 polymerase-mediated amplification/labeling with Cyanine-5. Labeled subject cRNA was co-hybridized to Operon rat 27K oligonucleotide arrays with equimolar amounts of Cyanine-3 labeled RRR. Slides were hybridized, washed, and scanned on a Gene Pix 5000 microarray scanner.

Identification of neuropeptides in the Crown-of-Thorns Starfish, Acanthaster planci

Project description:The Crown-of-thorns starfish (COTS) Acanthaster planci feeds on hard corals and its outbreaks are a major cause of destruction of coral communities on the Australian Great Barrier Reef. Whilst population booms and the social behaviour of COTS have been well studied, little is known about the neural mechanisms underlying COTS metabolism and behaviour. One of the major classes of chemical messengers that regulate metabolic and behavioural processes in animals are neuropeptides. Here, we have analysed COTS genome and transcriptome sequence data to identify neuropeptide precursor proteins in this species. Mass spectrometry was employed to identify neuropeptides extracted from radial nerve cords. Forty-nine neuropeptide precursors were identified, including homologs of neuropeptide signaling systems that are evolutionarily conserved throughout the Bilateria.
