Although protein kinase C (PKC) has been widely implicated in the positive and negative control of proliferation, the underlying cell cycle mechanisms regulated by individual PKC isozymes are only partially understood. In this report, we show that PKCdelta mediates phorbol ester-induced G1 arrest in lung adenocarcinoma cells and establish an essential role for this novel PKC in controlling the expression of the cell cycle inhibitor p21. Activation of PKC with phorbol 12-myristate 13-acetate (PMA) in early G1 phase impaired progression of lung adenocarcinoma cells into S phase, an effect that was completely abolished by specific depletion of PKCdelta, but not PKCalpha. Although the PKC effect was unrelated to the inhibition of cyclin D1 expression, PKC activation significantly up-regulated p21 and down-regulated Rb hyperphosphorylation and cyclin A expression. Elevations in p21 mRNA and protein by PMA were mediated by PKCdelta but not PKCalpha. Studies using luciferase reporters also revealed an essential role for PKCdelta in the PMA-induced inhibition of Rb-dependent cyclin A promoter activity. Finally, we showed that the cell cycle inhibitory effect of PKCdelta is greatly attenuated by RNA interference-mediated knock-down of p21. Our results identify a novel link between PKCdelta and G1 arrest via p21 up-regulation and highlight the complexities in the downstream effectors of PKC isozymes in the context of cell cycle progression and proliferation.  相似文献

Shiga toxin (Stx) is after endocytosis transported via early endosomes to the Golgi apparatus and endoplasmic reticulum. It is then translocated to the cytosol where it exerts its toxic effect. We recently reported that p38 is required for endosome to Golgi transport of Stx. In the present study, we investigated whether β-arrestins are effectors of this pathway. β-arrestin knockdown led to enhanced Stx transport. A similar phenotype was achieved upon p38 activation. We demonstrate that p38 and β-arrestin act on the same pathway. β-arrestin colocalized with internalized Stx and, interestingly, was recruited to endosomes upon p38 activation. After Stx treatment, p38 and β-arrestin formed a transient complex. From these data we propose that β-arrestin negatively regulates Stx transport via an interaction with activated p38 and attenuation of its signalling. Interestingly, also mannose 6-phosphate receptor transport was regulated by p38 and β-arrestin. β-arrestins therefore seem to regulate an endosome to Golgi pathway used by multiple cargo proteins.  相似文献

Annexins constitute a family of calcium and membrane binding proteins. As annexin A1 and A2 have previously been linked to various membrane trafficking events, we initiated this study to investigate the role of these annexins in the uptake and intracellular transport of the bacterial Shiga toxin (Stx) and the plant toxin ricin. Once endocytosed, both toxins are retrogradely transported from endosomes to the Golgi apparatus and the endoplasmic reticulum before being targeted to the cytosol where they inhibit protein synthesis. This study was performed to obtain new information both about toxin transport and the function of annexin A1 and annexin A2. Our data show that depletion of annexin A1 or A2 alters the retrograde transport of Stx but not ricin, without affecting toxin binding or internalization. Knockdown of annexin A1 increases Golgi transport of Stx, whereas knockdown of annexin A2 slightly decreases the same transport step. Interestingly, annexin A1 was found in proximity to cytoplasmic phospholipase A2 (cPLA(2)), and the basal as well as the increased Golgi transport of Stx upon annexin A1 knockdown is dependent on cPLA(2) activity. In conclusion, annexin A1 and A2 have different roles in Stx transport to the trans-Golgi network. The most prominent role is played by annexin A1 which normally works as a negative regulator of retrograde transport from the endosomes to the Golgi network, most likely by complex formation and inhibition of cPLA(2).  相似文献

Shiga toxin (Stx) binds to the cell, and it is transported via endosomes and the Golgi apparatus to the endoplasmic reticulum and cytosol, where it exerts its toxic effect. We have recently shown that Stx activates the tyrosine kinase Syk, which in turn induces clathrin phosphorylation and up-regulates Stx uptake. Here, we show that toxin-induced signaling can also regulate another step in intracellular Stx transport. We demonstrate that transport of Stx to the Golgi apparatus is dependent on the mitogen-activated protein kinase p38. Treatment of cells with chemical inhibitors or small interfering RNA targeting p38 inhibited Stx transport to the Golgi and reduced Stx toxicity. This p38 dependence is specific to Stx, because transport of the related toxin ricin was not affected by p38 inhibition. Stx rapidly activated p38, and recruited it to early endosomes in a Ca(2+)-dependent manner. Furthermore, agonist-induced oscillations in cytosolic Ca(2+) levels were inhibited upon Stx stimulation, possibly reflecting Stx-dependent local alterations in cytosolic Ca(2+) levels. Intracellular transport of Stx is Ca(2+) dependent, and we provide evidence that Stx activates a signaling cascade involving cross talk between Ca(2+) and p38, to regulate its trafficking to the Golgi apparatus.  相似文献

Phorbol 12-myristate 13-acetate (PMA) potently induces apoptosis of LNCaP human prostate cancer cells. Here, we show that C4-2 cells, androgen-hypersensitive derivatives of LNCaP cells, also are sensitive to PMA-induced apoptosis. Previous reports have implicated activation of protein kinase C (PKC) isozymes alpha and delta in PMA-induced LNCaP apoptosis using overexpression, pharmacological inhibitors, and dominant-negative constructs, but have left unresolved if other isozymes are involved, if there are separate requirements for individual PKC isozymes, or if there is redundancy. We have resolved these questions in C4-2 cells using stable expression of short hairpin RNAs to knock down expression of specific PKC isozymes individually and in pairs. Partial knockdown of PKCdelta inhibited PMA-induced C4-2 cell death almost completely, whereas near-complete knockdown of PKCalpha had no effect. Knockdown of PKCepsilon alone had no effect, but simultaneous knockdown of both PKCalpha and PKCepsilon in C4-2 cells that continued to express normal levels of PKCdelta inhibited PMA-induced apoptosis. Thus, our data indicate that there is an absolute requirement for PKCdelta in PMA-induced C4-2 apoptosis but that the functions of PKCalpha and PKCepsilon in apoptosis induction are redundant, such that either one (but not both) is required. Investigation of PMA-induced events required for LNCaP and C4-2 apoptosis revealed that p38 activation is dependent on PKCdelta, whereas induction of retinoblastoma protein hypophosphorylation requires both PKC signaling pathways and is downstream of p38 activation in the PKCdelta pathway.  相似文献

Signaling events, including Rho GTPases and protein kinase C (PKC), are involved in cardiac hypertrophy. However, the mechanisms by which these pathways cooperate during the hypertrophic process remain unclear. Using an in vitro cyclic stretch model with neonatal rat cardiomyocytes, we demonstrated that stretch-induced activation of RhoA, Rac1/Cdc42, and phosphorylation of Rho-guanine nucleotide dissociation inhibitor (GDI) were prevented by inhibition or depletion of PKC, using chelerythrine and phorbol 12-myristate 13-acetate, indicating that phorbol ester-sensitive PKC isozymes may be upstream regulators of Rho GTPases. Using adenoviral-mediated gene transfer of wild-type (WT) and dominant-negative (DN) mutants of PKCalpha and delta, we found that stretch-induced activation of Rho GTPases and phosphorylation of Rho-GDI were mainly regulated by PKCalpha. PKCdelta was involved in regulation of the activation of Rac1. Stretch-induced increases in [(3)H]-leucine incorporation, myofibrillar reorganization and cell size, were blocked by inhibition of Rho GTPases, or overexpression of DN PKCalpha and delta, suggesting that PKCalpha and delta are both required in stretch-induced hypertrophy, through Rho GTPases-mediated signaling pathways. The mechanism, whereby PKC and Rho GTPases regulate hypertrophy, was associated with mitogen-activated protein (MAP) kinases. Stretch-stimulated phosphorylation of MEK1/ERK1/2 and MKK4/JNK was inhibited by overexpression of DN PKCalpha and delta, and that of MKK3/p38 inhibited by DN PKCdelta. The phosphorylation of ERK and JNK induced by overexpression of WT PKCalpha, and the phosphorylation of p38 induced by WT PKCdelta, were regulated by Rho GTPases. This study represents the first evidence that PKCalpha and delta are important regulators in mediating activation of Rho GTPases and MAP kinases, in the cyclic stretch-induced hypertrophic process.  相似文献

Phorbol esters, the archetypical (PKC) activators, induce apoptosis in androgen-sensitive LNCaP prostate cancer cells. In this study we evaluate the effect of a novel class of PKC ligands, the diacylglycerol (DAG)-lactones, as inducers of apoptosis in LNCaP cells. These unique ligands were designed using novel pharmacophore- and receptor-guided approaches to achieve highly potent DAG surrogates. Two of these compounds, HK434 and HK654, induced apoptosis in LNCaP cells with much higher potency than oleoyl-acetyl-glycerol or phorbol 12,13-dibutyrate. Moreover, different PKC isozymes were found to mediate the apoptotic effect of phorbol 12-myristate 13-acetate (PMA) and HK654 in LNCaP cells. Using PKC inhibitors and dominant negative PKC isoforms, we found that both PKCalpha and PKCdelta mediated the apoptotic effect of PMA, whereas only PKCalpha was involved in the effect of the DAG-lactone. The PKCalpha selectivity of HK654 in LNCaP cells contrasts with similar potencies in vitro for binding and activation of PKCalpha and PKCdelta. Consistent with the differences in isoform dependence in intact cells, PMA and HK654 show marked differences in their abilities to translocate PKC isozymes. Both PMA and HK654 induce a marked redistribution of PKCalpha to the plasma membrane. On the other hand, unlike PMA, HK654 translocates PKCdelta predominantly to the nuclear membrane. Thus, DAG-lactones have a unique profile of activation of PKC isozymes for inducing apoptosis in LNCaP cells and represent the first example of a selective activator of a classical PKC in cellular models. An attractive hypothesis is that selective activation of PKC isozymes by pharmacological agents in cells can be achieved by differential intracellular targeting of each PKC.  相似文献

Polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) require metabolic activation to exert their carcinogenic effects. PAH trans-dihydrodiol proximate carcinogens are oxidized by aldo-keto reductases (AKRs) to their corresponding reactive and redox-active o-quinones which may have the properties of initiators and promoters. To determine whether these o-quinones target protein kinase C (PKC), their effects on human recombinant PKCalpha and PKCdelta and the catalytic fragment of rat brain PKC were determined. Naphthalene-1,2-dione (NP-1,2-dione), benzo[a]pyrene-7,8-dione (BP-7,8-dione), and 7,12-dimethylbenz[a]anthracene-3,4-dione (DMBA-3,4-dione) potently inhibited (IC(50) values 3-5 microM) the basal and stimulated activity of the holoenzymes PKCalpha and PKCdelta in a dose-dependent manner. Inhibition of PKC by BP-7,8-dione was observed irrespective of whether PKCalpha activity was stimulated with phorbol 12-myristate 13-acetate (PMA), phosphatidylserine (PS), or Ca(2+) or whether PKCdelta was stimulated with phorbol 12-myristate 13-acetate (PMA) or phosphatidylserine (PS), suggesting that the inhibition was not cofactor-specific. All three quinones inhibited the catalytic fragment of PKC in vitro, yielding identical IC(50) values (3-5 microM), indicating that they interact with the catalytic domain of PKC rather than the cofactor/activator sites. In contrast, no effect on either the holoenzyme or the catalytic fragment was observed with the corresponding PAH trans-dihydrodiols, indicating that inhibition was o-quinone-specific. Irreversible inhibition of the catalytic fragment of PKC was observed since activity could not be restored by dialysis, suggesting that arylation of the fragment had occurred. NP-1,2-dione and BP-7,8-dione also suppressed PKC activity in human breast cancer MCF-7 cell lysates which express PKCalpha, -beta, -delta, -epsilon, -iota, and -lambda isozymes. These data suggest that PAH o-quinones, generated by AKRs, may affect cellular signaling through suppression of the activity of PKC isoforms.  相似文献

Protein kinase C (PKC), a Ca(2+)/phospholipid-dependent protein kinase, is known as a key enzyme in various cellular responses, including apoptosis. However, the functional role of PKC in apoptosis has not been clarified. In this study, we focused on the involvement of PKCdelta in ceramide-induced apoptosis in HeLa cells and examined the importance of spatiotemporal activation of the specific PKC subtype in apoptotic events. Ceramide-induced apoptosis was inhibited by the PKCdelta-specific inhibitor rottlerin and also was blocked by knockdown of endogenous PKCdelta expression using small interfering RNA. Ceramide induced the translocation of PKCdelta to the Golgi complex and the concomitant activation of PKCdelta via phosphorylation of Tyr(311) and Tyr(332) in the hinge region of the enzyme. Unphosphorylatable PKCdelta (mutants Y311F and Y332F) could translocate to the Golgi complex in response to ceramide, suggesting that tyrosine phosphorylation is not necessary for translocation. However, ceramide failed to activate PKCdelta lacking the C1B domain, which did not translocate to the Golgi complex, but could be activated by tyrosine phosphorylation. These findings suggest that ceramide translocates PKCdelta to the Golgi complex and that PKCdelta is activated by tyrosine phosphorylation in the compartment. Furthermore, we utilized species-specific knockdown of PKCdelta by small interfering RNA to study the significance of phosphorylation of Tyr(311) and Tyr(332) in PKCdelta for ceramide-induced apoptosis and found that phosphorylation of Tyr(311) and Tyr(332) is indispensable for ceramide-induced apoptosis. We demonstrate here that the targeting mechanism of PKCdelta, dual regulation of both its activation and translocation to the Golgi complex, is critical for the ceramide-induced apoptotic event.  相似文献

The objectives were to investigate the roles of different calpains and protein kinase C (PKC) isoforms in muscle differentiation. Concentrations of mu- and m-calpain increased significantly whereas PKCalpha and delta declined significantly during L8 myoblast differentiation. Both mu-calpain and m-calpain antisense oligonucleotides inhibited myotube formation and creatine kinase activity during L8 myoblast differentiation. These results implied that both mu- and m-calpain were involved in L8 myoblast differentiation. To investigate the involvement of calpain in regulation of PKC concentrations, mu-calpain antisense oligonucleotides were added to L8 myoblasts. PKCalpha remained unchanged and PKCdelta declined. By adding m-calpain antisense oligonucleotides instead, PKCalpha level remained unchanged and PKCdelta concentrations increased significantly during differentiation. These results suggest that PKCalpha, but not PKCdelta, is the substrate for mu-calpain and PKCalpha and delta are the substrates for the m-calpain. In addition, more phosphorylated myogenin was found in day 2 antisense oligonucleotides treated L8 cells. It is concluded that the decline of PKCalpha mediated by m- and mu-calpain is essential for L8 myoblast differentiation. The decline of PKC during myoblast differentiation may cause hypo-phosphorylation of myogenin, which in turn activates muscle-specific genes during myogenesis.  相似文献

Protein kinase C (PKC) isozymes, a family of serine-threonine kinases, are important regulators of cell proliferation and malignant transformation. Phorbol esters, the prototype PKC activators, cause PKC translocation to the plasma membrane in prostate cancer cells, and trigger an apoptotic response. Studies in recent years have determined that each member of the PKC family exerts different effects on apoptotic or survival pathways. PKCdelta, one of the novel PKCs, is a key player of the apoptotic response via the activation of the p38 MAPK pathway. Studies using RNAi revealed that depletion of PKCdelta totally abolishes the apoptotic effect of the phorbol ester PMA. Activation of the classical PKCalpha promotes the dephosphorylation and inactivation of the survival kinase Akt. Studies have assigned a pro-survival role to PKCepsilon, but the function of this PKC isozyme remains controversial. Recently, it has been determined that the PKC apoptotic effect in androgen-dependent prostate cancer cells is mediated by the autocrine secretion of death factors. PKCdelta stimulates the release of TNFalpha from the plasma membrane, and blockade of TNFalpha secretion or TNFalpha receptors abrogates the apoptotic response of PMA. Molecular analysis indicates the requirement of the extrinsic apoptotic cascade via the activation of death receptors and caspase-8. Dissecting the pathways downstream of PKC isozymes represents a major challenge to understanding the molecular basis of phorbol ester-induced apoptosis.  相似文献

Deposition of plaques containing Abeta is considered important in the pathogenesis of Alzheimer's disease. Phorbol esters that activate protein kinase C (PKC) promote alpha-secretase-mediated processing of the beta amyloid precursor protein (APP), which generally reduces formation of Abeta. To determine which PKC isozymes mediate this process, we studied CHO cells that express human APP751. Phorbol 12-myristate, 13-acetate (PMA)-stimulated APP secretion, which was reduced by a general PKC inhibitor bisindoylmaleimide I, but not by G? 6976, which inhibits PKCalpha, beta, gamma, and mu. Since PKCdelta and epsilon were the only other PMA-sensitive isozymes present, we studied cells that express selective peptide inhibitors of these isozymes. Expression of the PKCepsilon inhibitor inhibited PMA-induced APPs secretion and suppression of Abeta production. In contrast, the PKCdelta inhibitor had no effect. These results provide evidence that PKCepsilon decreases Abeta production by promoting alpha-secretase mediated cleavage of APP.  相似文献

Inactivation of protein kinase Cdelta (PKCdelta) is associated with resistance to terminal cell death in epidermal tumor cells, suggesting that activation of PKCdelta in normal epidermis may be a component of a cell death pathway. To test this hypothesis, we constructed an adenovirus vector carrying an epitope-tagged PKCdelta under a cytomegalovirus promoter to overexpress PKCdelta in normal and neoplastic keratinocytes. While PKCdelta overexpression was detected by immunoblotting in keratinocytes, the expression level of other PKC isozymes, including PKCalpha, PKCepsilon, PKCzeta, and PKCeta, did not change. Calcium-independent PKC-specific kinase activity increased after infection of keratinocytes with the PKCdelta adenovirus. Activation of PKCdelta by 12-O-tetradecanoylphorbol-13-acetate (TPA) at a nanomolar concentration was lethal to normal and neoplastic mouse and human keratinocytes overexpressing PKCdelta. Lethality was inhibited by PKC selective inhibitors, GF109203X and Ro-32-0432. TPA-induced cell death was apoptotic as evidenced by morphological criteria, TUNEL (terminal deoxynucleotidyltransferase-mediated dUTP-biotin nick end labeling) assay, DNA fragmentation, and increased caspase activity. Subcellular fractionation indicated that PKCdelta translocated to a mitochondrial enriched fraction after TPA activation, and this finding was confirmed by confocal microscopy of cells expressing a transfected PKCdelta-green fluorescent protein fusion protein. Furthermore, activation of PKCdelta in keratinocytes altered mitochondrial membrane potential, as indicated by rhodamine-123 fluorescence. Mitochondrial inhibitors, rotenone and antimycin A, reduced TPA-induced cell death in PKCdelta-overexpressing keratinocytes. These results indicate that PKCdelta can initiate a death pathway in keratinocytes that involves direct interaction with mitochondria and alterations of mitochondrial function.  相似文献

Sustained activation of protein kinase C (PKC) isoenzymes alpha and betaII leads to their translocation to a perinuclear region and to the formation of the pericentrion, a PKC-dependent subset of recycling endosomes. In MCF-7 human breast cancer cells, the action of the PKC activator 4beta-phorbol-12-myristate-13-acetate (PMA) evokes ceramide formation, which in turn prevents PKCalpha/betaII translocation to the pericentrion. In this study we investigated the mechanisms by which ceramide negatively regulates this translocation of PKCalpha/betaII. Upon PMA treatment, HEK-293 cells displayed dual phosphorylation of PKCalpha/betaII at carboxyl-terminal sites (Thr-638/641 and Ser-657/660), whereas in MCF-7 cells PKCalpha/betaII were phosphorylated at Ser-657/660 but not Thr-638/641. Inhibition of ceramide synthesis by fumonisin B1 overcame the defect in PKC phosphorylation and restored translocation of PKCalpha/betaII to the pericentrion. To determine the involvement of ceramide-activated protein phosphatases in PKC regulation, we employed small interference RNA to silence individual Ser/Thr protein phosphatases. Knockdown of isoforms alpha or beta of the catalytic subunits of protein phosphatase 1 not only increased phosphorylation of PKCalpha/betaII at Thr-638/641 but also restored PKCbetaII translocation to the pericentrion. Mutagenesis approaches in HEK-293 cells revealed that mutation of either Thr-641 or Ser-660 to Ala in PKCbetaII abolished sequestration of PKC, implying the indispensable roles of phosphorylation of PKCalpha/betaII at those sites for their translocation to the pericentrion. Reciprocally, a point mutation of Thr-641 to Glu, which mimics phosphorylation, in PKCbetaII overcame the inhibitory effects of ceramide on PKC translocation in PMA-stimulated MCF-7 cells. Therefore, the results demonstrate a novel role for carboxyl-terminal phosphorylation of PKCalpha/betaII in the translocation of PKC to the pericentrion, and they disclose specific regulation of PKC autophosphorylation by ceramide through the activation of specific isoforms of protein phosphatase 1.  相似文献

Protein kinase C (PKC) is a signal transduction protein that has been proposed to mediate rapid responses to steroid hormones. Previously, we have shown aldosterone directly activates PKCalpha whereas 17beta-estradiol activates PKCalpha and PKCdelta; however, neither the binding to PKCs nor the mechanism of action has been established. To determine the domains of PKCalpha and PKCdelta involved in binding of aldosterone and 17beta-estradiol, glutathione S-transferase fusion recombinant PKCalpha and PKCdelta mutants were used to perform in vitro binding assays with [(3)H]aldosterone and [(3)H]17beta-estradiol. 17beta-Estradiol bound both PKCalpha and PKCdelta but failed to bind PKC mutants lacking a C2 domain. Similarly, aldosterone bound only PKCalpha and mutants containing C2 domains. Thus, the C2 domain is critical for binding of these hormones. Binding affinities for aldosterone and 17beta-estradiol were between 0.5-1.0 nM. Aldosterone and 17beta-estradiol competed for binding to PKCalpha, suggesting they share the same binding site. Phorbol 12,13-dybutyrate did not compete with hormone binding; furthermore, they have an additive effect on PKC activity. EC(50) for activation of PKCalpha and PKCdelta by aldosterone and 17beta-estradiol was approximately 0.5 nM. Immunoblot analysis using a phospho-PKC antibody revealed that upon binding, PKCalpha and PKCdelta undergo autophosphorylation with an EC(50) in the 0.5-1.0 nm range. 17beta-Estradiol activated PKCalpha and PKCdelta in estrogen receptor-positive and -negative breast cancer cells (MCF-7 and HCC-38, respectively), suggesting estrogen receptor expression is not required for 17beta-estradiol-induced PKC activation. The present results provide first evidence for direct binding and activation of PKCalpha and PKCdelta by steroid hormones and the molecular mechanisms involved.  相似文献

The protein kinase C (PKC) was secreted from thrombin-stimulated human platelets in a time- and dose-dependent manner. The PKC specific inhibitors Ro31-8220 (0.05 microM) and GF 109203X (0.5 microM) totally inhibited the secreted kinase activity. Western blot analysis of the secretory components showed reactivity to PKCalpha, PKCbetaII, and PKCdelta antibodies, but not to PKCbetaI, and p42/44 MAPK, although they were present in lysed platelets. The fractionation of platelets secreted components showed that PKC activity increased in both soluble and microparticle fractions after thrombin treatments. This is the first report demonstrating that activated human platelets selectively secrete protein kinase C isozymes. Protein kinase C secreted by platelets in this unique manner may have an extracellular role in the plasma, and may regulate cellular functions, including remodeling of vascular endothelial cells.  相似文献

Macrophage migration into injured or infected tissue is a key aspect in the pathophysiology of many diseases where inflammation is a driving factor. Membrane‐type‐1 matrix metalloproteinase (MT1‐MMP) cleaves extracellular matrix components to facilitate invasion. Here we show that, unlike the constitutive MT1‐MMP surface recycling seen in cancer cells, unactivated macrophages express low levels of MT1‐MMP. Upon lipopolysaccharide (LPS) activation, MT1‐MMP synthesis dramatically increases 10‐fold at the surface by 15 hours. MT1‐MMP is trafficked from the Golgi complex to the surface via late endosomes/lysosomes in a pathway regulated by the late endosome/lysosome R‐SNAREs VAMP7 and VAMP8. These form two separate complexes with the surface Q‐SNARE complex Stx4/SNAP23 to regulate MT1‐MMP delivery to the plasma membrane. Loss of either one of these SNAREs leads to a reduction in surface MT1‐MMP, gelatinase activity and reduced invasion. Thus, inhibiting MT1‐MMP transport through this pathway could reduce macrophage migration and the resulting inflammation.  相似文献

Phosphorothioate (PS) modified antisense oligonucleotide (ASO) drugs can trigger RNase H1 cleavage of cellular target RNAs to modulate gene expression. Internalized PS-ASOs must be released from membraned endosomal organelles, a rate limiting step that is not well understood. Recently we found that M6PR transport between Golgi and late endosomes facilitates productive release of PS-ASOs, raising the possibility that Golgi-mediated transport may play important roles in PS-ASO activity. Here we further evaluated the involvement of Golgi in PS-ASO activity by examining additional Golgi proteins. Reduction of certain Golgi proteins, including Golgi-58K, GCC1 and TGN46, decreased PS-ASO activity, without substantial effects on Golgi integrity. Upon PS-ASO cellular uptake, Golgi-58K was recruited to late endosomes where it colocalized with PS-ASOs. Reduction of Golgi-58K caused slower PS-ASO release from late endosomes, decreased GCC2 late endosome relocalization, and led to slower retrograde transport of M6PR from late endosomes to trans-Golgi. Late endosome relocalization of Golgi-58K requires Hsc70, and is most likely mediated by PS-ASO–protein interactions. Together, these results suggest a novel function of Golgi-58K in mediating Golgi-endosome transport and indicate that the Golgi apparatus plays an important role in endosomal release of PS-ASO, ensuring antisense activity.  相似文献
