Project description:Lysosomes are essential organelles for cellular homeostasis. Defective lysosomes are associated with many human diseases, such as lysosomal storage disorders (LSD). How the cell detects lysosomal defects and then restores lysosomal function remain incompletely understood. Here, we show that STING mediates a common neuroinflammatory gene signature in three distinct lysosomal storage disorders, Galctwi/twi, Ppt1-/-, and Cln7-/-. Transcriptomic analysis of Galctwi/twi brain tissue revealed that STING also mediates the expression of a broad panel of lysosomal genes that are part of the CLEAR (Coordinated Lysosomal Expression and Regulation) signaling pathway, which is regulated by transcriptional factor EB (TFEB). Immunohistochemical and single-nucleus RNA-seq analysis show that STING regulates lysosomal gene expression in microglia in LSD mice. Mechanistically, we show that STING activation in both human and mouse cells leads to TFEB dephosphorylation, nuclear translocation, and expression of target lysosomal genes. In addition, STING-mediated TFEB activation requires its proton channel function, the V-ATPase-ATG5-ATG8 cascade, and is independent of immune signaling. Functionally, we show that the STING-proton channel-TFEB axis plays a role in facilitating lysosomal repair. Together, our data identify STING-TFEB as a lysosomal quality control and recovery mechanism that responds to both genetic and chemically induced lysosomal dysfunction.

Project description:STING transmits signals downstream of the cytosolic DNA sensor cGAS, leading to transcriptional up-regulation of cytokines. However, components of the STING signaling pathway, such as IRF3 and IFNAR1, are not essential for autoinflammatory disease in STING gain-of-function (SAVI) mice. Recent discoveries revealed that STING also functions as a proton channel that deacidifies the Golgi. Since pH impacts Golgi enzyme activity, protein maturation, and trafficking, we hypothesized that STING proton channel activity influences multiple Golgi functions. Here, we show that STING-mediated proton efflux non-transcriptionally regulates Golgi trafficking of protein cargos. This process requires the Golgi-associated protein ArfGAP2, a cell type-specific dual regulator of STING-mediated proton efflux and signaling. Deletion of ArfGAP2 in hematopoietic and endothelial cells markedly reduces STING-mediated cytokine and chemokine secretion, immune cell activation, and autoinflammatory pathology in SAVI mice. Thus, ArfGAP2 facilitates STING-mediated signaling and cytokine release in hematopoietic cells, significantly contributing to autoinflammatory disease pathogenesis.

Project description:Activation of Stimulator of interferon genes (STING) is well known to upregulate inflammation through canonical TBK1 signaling. STING is recently found to activate noncanonical functions through its transmembrane proton channel. Whether STING stimulates any transcription programs through its channel is unknown. In this study, we identified the transcription factor EB (TFEB) as a downstream effector of the STING channel. TFEB is a transcriptional regulator of lysosomal biogenesis and autophagy. Using RNA sequencing approaches, we confirmed that STING activated transcriptional upregulation of lysosomal biogenesis and autophagy independently of TBK1.

Project description:Transcription factor EB (TFEB), well characterized as a master regulator of autophagy and lysosomal biogenesis, is translocated to the nucleus and activated by varieties of cellular stresses including starvation and lysosomal damage. However, compared to the starvation condition, the molecular mechanism of TFEB activation by other stress conditions is poorly understood. Previously, we have shown that TFEB activation during lysosomal damage but not starvation condition depends on a subset of autophagy regulators, collectively called ATG conjugation system, whose function is essential for the lipidation of ATG8 proteins. In this study, by time-lapse imaging, we newly identified the presence of ATG conjugation system -independent TFEB regulation which precedes the ATG conjugation system-dependent regulation, designated mode I and mode II, respectively. Consistent with the presence of different modes, our time course transcriptome analysis revealed two different sets of TFEB downstream. Comprehensive interactome analysis of TFEB and subsequent functional screening identified unique regulars of TFEB in each mode: APEX1 for Mode I and CCT7 and/or TRIP6 for Mode II, respectively. APEX1 interacted with TFEB and was required for its protein stability in a manner independent of ATG conjugation system. On the other hand, both CCT7 and TRIP6 were accumulated on lysosomes during lysosomal damage and interacted with TFEB mainly in ATG conjugation system deficient cells, presumably blocking TFEB nuclear translocation. Moreover, we further revealed that TFEB regulatory mechanisms by other cellular stresses such as oxidative stress, proteasome inhibition, mitochondria depolarization, and DNA damage can be classified into either APEX1-mediated Mode I or TRIP6-mediated Mode II. Our results pave the way for a unified understanding TFEB regulatory mechanisms from the perspective of ATG conjugation system under varieties of cellular stresses.

Project description:Cells experience oxidative stress and widespread cellular damage during stress-induced premature senescence (SIPS). Senescent cells show an increase in lysosomal content, which may contribute to mitigating cellular damage by promoting autophagy. This study investigates the dynamics of lysosomal quality control in human dermal fibroblasts (HDF), specifically examining lysosomal signaling pathways during oxidative stress-induced SIPS. Our results reveal distinct signaling responses between the initial stress phase and the ensuing senescent phenotype. During the stress phase, treatment with tBHP, which undermines the antioxidant response, leads to elevated reactive oxygen species (ROS) and lysosomal damage. ROS accumulation activates AMP-activated protein kinase (AMPK) and inhibits Akt, which correlates with the suppression of mammalian target of rapamycin (mTOR). Inactivation of mTOR during this phase aligns with the activation of transcription factor EB (TFEB), a key regulator of autophagy and lysosomal biogenesis. TFEB knockdown under stress increased apoptosis, highlighting the protective role of TFEB in the stress response. As cells transition to senescence, TFEB activity, required for the autophagic damage repair, becomes less critical. The decrease in ROS levels leads to the normalization of AMPK and Akt signaling, accompanied by the reactivation of mTOR. This reactivation of mTOR, which is critical for establishing the senescent state, is observed alongside the inactivation of TFEB. Consequently, as damage decreases, TFEB activity decreases. Our results suggest a dynamic interplay between TFEB and mTOR, highlighting a critical role of TFEB in ensuring cellular survival during SIPS induction but becoming dispensable once senescence is established.

Project description:Cells respond to mitochondrial energetic stress with rapid activation of the AMP-activated protein kinase (AMPK), which acutely inhibits anabolism and stimulates catabolism. AMPK also induces sustained transcriptional reprogramming of metabolism. The TFEB transcription factor is a major effector of AMPK signals, inducing lysosome genes following energetic stress. Yet the molecular mechanism underlying how AMPK activates TFEB remains unresolved. We demonstrate here that AMPK directly phosphorylates five conserved serine residues in FNIP1, which suppresses the function of the FLCN/FNIP1 RagC GAP complex, in turn controlling TFEB lysosomal localization. We demonstrate that FNIP1 phosphorylation is required for AMPK to induce nuclear translocation of TFEB, which is fully separable from AMPK control of canonical mTORC1 signaling. Using a non-phosphorylatable allele of FNIP1, we show that in parallel to lysosomal biogenesis, AMPK induces mitochondrial biogenesis via TFEB-dependent induction of PGC1a mRNA. This signaling from mitochondrial stress is also independent of amino-acid control of the Rags and TFEB, which still proceed normally in cells bearing the AMPK-non phosphorylatable allele of FNIP1. Taken together, mitochondrial energetic stress triggers AMPK/FNIP1-dependent TFEB nuclear translocation, inducing transcriptional waves of lysosomal and mitochondrial biogenesis.

Project description:Mitochondrial and lysosomal functions are intimately linked and are critical for cellular homeostasis, as evidenced by the fact that cellular senescence, aging, and multiple prominent diseases are associated with concomitant dysfunction of both organelles. However, it is not well understood how the two important organelles are regulated. Transcription factor EB (TFEB) is the master regulator of lysosomal function and is also implicated in regulating mitochondrial function; however, the mechanism underlying the maintenance of both organelles remains to be fully elucidated. Here, by comprehensive transcriptome analysis and subsequent chromatin immunoprecipitation sequencing (ChIP)-quantitative PCR (qPCR), we identified hexokinase domain containing 1 (HKDC1), which is known to function in the glycolysis pathway as a direct TFEB target. Moreover, HKDC1 was upregulated in both mitochondrial and lysosomal stress in a TFEB-dependent manner, and its function was critical for the maintenance of both organelles under stress conditions. Mechanistically, the TFEB–HKDC1 axis was essential for PINK1/Parkin-dependent mitophagy via its initial step, PINK1 stabilization. In addition, the functions of HKDC1 and voltage-dependent anion channels (VDACs), with which HKDC1 interacts, were essential for the clearance of damaged lysosomes and mitochondria-lysosome contact.Interestingly, the kinase regulated mitophagy and lysosomal repair independently from its function in glycolysis. Furthermore, loss function of HKDC1 accelerated DNA damage–induced cellular senescence with the accumulation of hyperfused mitochondria and damaged lysosomes. Our results show that HKDC1, a novel factor downstream of TFEB, maintains both mitochondrial and lysosomal homeostasis, which is critical to prevent cellular senescence.

Project description:Under homeostatic conditions, NRF2 is repressed by Kelch-like ECH-associated protein 1 (KEAP1). Here, we demonstrate that Keap1 deficiency induces Nrf2 activation and post-developmental lethality in zebrafish larvae. Loss of viability is preceded by severe liver abnormalities characterized by an accumulation of lysosomes. Mechanistically, we demonstrate that loss of Keap1 promotes aberrant activation of transcription factor EB (TFEB)/transcription factor binding to IGHM Enhancer 3 (TFE3)-dependent lysosomal biogenesis. Importantly, we find that NRF2-dependent regulation of lysosomal biogenesis is cell autonomous and evolutionarily conserved.
