ER stress signaling by regulated splicing: IRE1/HAC1/XBP1 总被引:12,自引:0,他引:12

Endoplasmic reticulum (ER) stress is increasingly recognized as an important mechanism in a wide range of diseases including
cystic fibrosis, alpha-1 antitrypsin deficiency, Parkinson's and Alzheimer's disease. Therefore, there is an increased need
for reliable and quantitative markers for detection of ER stress in human tissues and cells. Accumulation of unfolded or misfolded
proteins in the endoplasmic reticulum can cause ER stress, which leads to the activation of the unfolded protein response
(UPR). UPR signaling involves splicing of X-box binding protein-1 (XBP1) mRNA, which is frequently used as a marker for ER
stress. In most studies, the splicing of the XBP1 mRNA is visualized by gel electrophoresis which is laborious and difficult
to quantify. In the present study, we have developed and validated a quantitative real-time RT-PCR method to detect the spliced
form of XBP1 mRNA. 相似文献

Proteins that are unfolded or misfolded in the endoplasmic reticulum (ER) must be targeted for refolding or degradation to maintain the homeostasis of the ER. Derlin-1 was reportedly implicated in the retro-translocation of misfolded proteins from the ER to the cytosol for degradation. In this report, we showed that Derlin-1 was down-regulated in the endothelial cells derived from human hepatic cavernous hemangioma (CHEC) compared with other tested cells. Electron microscopy analysis showed that ER was aberrantly enlarged in CHEC cells, but not in other tested cells. When overexpressed, Derlin-1 induced the dilated ER to return normal size. This ER dynamic was associated with the activation of unfolded protein response (UPR). In CHEC cells where Derlin-1 was down-regulated, increased expression of the immunoglobulin heavy chain-binding protein (Bip) and UPR-specific splicing of X-box DNAbinding protein 1 (XBP1) mRNA were detected, as compared with that in other tested cells, indicating that UPR was activated. After Derlin-1 overexpression, the extent of UPR activation diminished, as evidenced by decreased expression of Bip, reduced amount of the spliced form of XBP1 (XBP1s), and elevated expression of the unspliced form of XBP1 (XBP1u). Taken together, these findings provide another example of a single protein being able to affect ER dynamic in mammalian cells, and an insight into the possible molecular mechanism(s). 相似文献

Endoplasmic reticulum (ER) stress has been reported to be involved in many cardiovascular diseases such as atherosclerosis, diabetes, myocardial ischemia, and hypertension that ultimately result in heart failure. XBP1 is a key ER stress signal transducer and an important pro‐survival factor of the unfolded protein response (UPR) in mammalian cells. The aim of this study was to establish a role for XBP1 in the deregulation of pro‐angiogenic factor VEGF expression and potential regulatory mechanisms in hypertrophic and failing heart. Western blots showed that myocardial XBP1s protein was significantly increased in both isoproterenol (ISO)‐induced and pressure‐overload‐induced hypertrophic and failing heart compared to normal control. Furthermore, XBP1 silencing exacerbates ISO‐induced cardiac dysfunction along with a reduction of myocardial capillary density and cardiac expression of pro‐angiogenic factor VEGF‐A in vivo. Consistently, experiments in cultured cardiomyocytes H9c2 (2‐1) cells showed that UPR‐induced VEGF‐A upregulation was determined by XBP1 expression level. Importantly, VEGF‐A expression was increased in failing human heart tissue and blood samples and was correlated with the levels of XBP1. These results suggest that XBP1 regulates VEGF‐mediated cardiac angiogenesis, which contributes to the progression of adaptive hypertrophy, and might provide novel targets for prevention and treatment of heart failure. 相似文献

The reported data indicate that oleic acid (OA) decreases cholesterol absorption. To explore the underlying mechanisms, the
effects of OA on the expression of cholesterol transport-related proteins (NPC1L1, ABCG5/8, ACAT2, MTP) and the unfolded protein
response (UPR) pathway were studied in CaCo-2 enterocytes by incubating CaCo-2 cells with taurocholate micelles or taurocholate
micelles containing different concentrations of OA (0.25–1.0 mM). We show that OA effectively induces XBP1 mRNA splicing,
a key component of the UPR signaling, and the expression of BiP and mature ATF6 proteins in a concentration-dependent manner,
leading to the induction of endoplasmic reticulum (ER) stress and activation of the UPR. Interestingly, OA decreases NPC1L1
expression in a dose-dependent manner while it has no effects on ABCG5 and MTP mRNA level or SREBP-2, ABCG8, and ACAT2 protein
level. In CaCo-2 cells treated with 1.0 mM OA, both the NPC1L1 mRNA level and the NPC1L1 protein expression in brush-border
membrane fractions were decreased by 39% and 37%, respectively (P < 0.01). A dose of 1 mM dithiothreitol (DTT), a positive control for ER stress induction, also decreases NPC1L1 mRNA and
protein expression by 27% and 23%, respectively (P < 0.05). Furthermore, 4-phenyl-butyric acid, an UPR inhibitor, blocks OA- and DTT-induced reduction on NPC1L1 mRNA and protein
levels. The results suggest that OA down-regulates NPC1L1 mRNA and protein expression via the induction of the UPR, which
may play an important role in reducing intestinal cholesterol absorption. 相似文献

During viral infection, a massive demand for viral glycoproteins can overwhelm the capacity of the protein folding and quality control machinery, leading to an accumulation of unfolded proteins in the endoplasmic reticulum (ER). To restore ER homeostasis, cells initiate the unfolded protein response (UPR) by activating three ER-to-nucleus signaling pathways, of which the inositol-requiring enzyme 1 (IRE1)-dependent pathway is the most conserved. To reduce ER stress, the UPR decreases protein synthesis, increases degradation of unfolded proteins, and upregulates chaperone expression to enhance protein folding. Cytomegaloviruses, as other viral pathogens, modulate the UPR to their own advantage. However, the molecular mechanisms and the viral proteins responsible for UPR modulation remained to be identified. In this study, we investigated the modulation of IRE1 signaling by murine cytomegalovirus (MCMV) and found that IRE1-mediated mRNA splicing and expression of the X-box binding protein 1 (XBP1) is repressed in infected cells. By affinity purification, we identified the viral M50 protein as an IRE1-interacting protein. M50 expression in transfected or MCMV-infected cells induced a substantial downregulation of IRE1 protein levels. The N-terminal conserved region of M50 was found to be required for interaction with and downregulation of IRE1. Moreover, UL50, the human cytomegalovirus (HCMV) homolog of M50, affected IRE1 in the same way. Thus we concluded that IRE1 downregulation represents a previously undescribed viral strategy to curb the UPR. 相似文献

Brucella melitensis is a facultative intracellular bacterium that causes brucellosis, the most prevalent zoonosis worldwide. The Brucella intracellular replicative niche in macrophages and dendritic cells thwarts immune surveillance and complicates both therapy and vaccine development. Currently, host-pathogen interactions supporting Brucella replication are poorly understood. Brucella fuses with the endoplasmic reticulum (ER) to replicate, resulting in dramatic restructuring of the ER. This ER disruption raises the possibility that Brucella provokes an ER stress response called the Unfolded Protein Response (UPR). In this study, B. melitensis infection up regulated expression of the UPR target genes BiP, CHOP, and ERdj4, and induced XBP1 mRNA splicing in murine macrophages. These data implicate activation of all 3 major signaling pathways of the UPR. Consistent with previous reports, XBP1 mRNA splicing was largely MyD88-dependent. However, up regulation of CHOP, and ERdj4 was completely MyD88 independent. Heat killed Brucella stimulated significantly less BiP, CHOP, and ERdj4 expression, but induced XBP1 splicing. Although a Brucella VirB mutant showed relatively intact UPR induction, a TcpB mutant had significantly compromised BiP, CHOP and ERdj4 expression. Purified TcpB, a protein recently identified to modulate microtubules in a manner similar to paclitaxel, also induced UPR target gene expression and resulted in dramatic restructuring of the ER. In contrast, infection with the TcpB mutant resulted in much less ER structural disruption. Finally, tauroursodeoxycholic acid, a pharmacologic chaperone that ameliorates the UPR, significantly impaired Brucella replication in macrophages. Together, these results suggest Brucella induces a UPR, via TcpB and potentially other factors, that enables its intracellular replication. Thus, the UPR may provide a novel therapeutic target for the treatment of brucellosis. These results also have implications for other intracellular bacteria that rely on host physiologic stress responses for replication. 相似文献
