Carrageenan-induced NFkappaB activation depends on distinct pathways mediated by reactive oxygen species and Hsp27 or by Bcl10. Biochim Biophys Acta Gen Subj 2008; 1780:973-82. [PMID: 18452717 DOI: 10.1016/j.bbagen.2008.03.019] [Citation(s) in RCA: 77] [Impact Index Per Article: 4.8] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/04/2008] [Revised: 03/16/2008] [Accepted: 03/26/2008] [Indexed: 12/22/2022]
Abstract
Carrageenans are highly sulfated polysaccharides that are widely used as food additives due to their ability to improve food texture. They are also widely recognized for their ability to induce inflammation in animal models of colitis. Recently, we reported that carrageenan (CGN) activated a pathway of innate immunity in human colonic epithelial cells mediated by Bcl10 (B-cell CLL/lymphoma 10). However, increases in phospho-IkappaBalpha and Interleukin-8 (IL-8) were not completely inhibited by silencing Bcl10, suggesting that CGN also influenced another mechanism, or mechanisms, of inflammation. In this report, we demonstrate that CGN increases production of reactive oxygen species (ROS) in human colonic epithelial cells. The combination of ROS quenching by the free radical scavenger Tempol and of Bcl10 silencing by siRNA completely inhibited the CGN-induced increases in nuclear NFkappaB (p65), phospho-IkappaBalpha, and secretion of IL-8. The CGN-induced increase in ROS was associated with declines in phosphorylation of MAPK 12 (p38gamma), MAPK 13 (p38delta), and heat-shock protein (Hsp) 27. The CGN-induced decline in phospho-Hsp27 was reversed by co-administration of Tempol (100 nM), but unaffected by silencing Bcl10. Since Hsp27 phosphorylation is inversely associated with phosphorylation of the IkappaBalpha kinase (IKK) signalosome, CGN exposure appears to affect the IKK signalosome by both the catalytic component, mediated by ROS-phospho-Hsp27, and the regulatory component, mediated by Bcl10 interaction with IKKgamma (Nemo). Hence, the CGN-activated inflammatory cascades related to innate immunity and to generation of ROS may be integrated at the level of the IKK signalosome.

Abstract
Stress proteins or heat shock proteins (HSPs) are ubiquitous cellular components that have long been known to act as molecular chaperones. By assisting proper folding and transport of proteins, and by assisting in the degradation of aberrant proteins, they play key roles in cellular metabolism. The frequent accumulation of insoluble protein aggregates during chronic neurodegenerative disorders suggests failure of HSP functions to be a common denominator among such diseases. Recent developments have clarified that functions of HSPs extend well beyond their role in protein folding and degradation alone. Stress-inducible HSPs also regulate apoptosis, antigen presentation, inflammatory signalling pathways and, intriguingly, also serve as extracellular mediators of inflammation. Several receptors have been identified for extracellular HSPs, which control inflammatory pathways similar to those activated by cytokines and chemokines. In this review, both the traditional and the exciting novel functions of HSPs are discussed, with a focus on their relevance for neurodegeneration and neuroinflammation. Recent advances in this field suggest that HSPs represent attractive novel targets as well as therapeutic entities for CNS disorders.

Abstract
Heat-shock protein 27 (Hsp27) is a member of the small Hsp family that functions as molecular chaperones and protects cells against environmental stress. Hsp27 is expressed in the upper epidermal layers of normal human skin and has been reported to play a role in keratinocyte differentiation and apoptosis. In this investigation, we show an additional role of Hsp27 in the regulation of inflammatory pathways in keratinocytes. Downregulation of Hsp27 using Hsp27-specific small interfering RNA increased prostaglandin E(2) (PGE(2)) production in both unstimulated and tumor necrosis factor-alpha (TNF-alpha)-stimulated keratinocytes. Moreover, downregulation of Hsp27 increased the release of the pro-inflammatory cytokine IL-8 from TNF-alpha-stimulated and UV-irradiated keratinocytes, and this increase was inhibited by pretreatment with the NF-kappaB inhibitor BAY11-7082. Further studies showed that downregulation of Hsp27 resulted in induction of NF-kappaB reporter activity in keratinocytes. This correlated with enhanced degradation of IkappaB-alpha protein and accumulation of phosphorylated IkappaB-alpha in Hsp27 knockdown cells. Moreover, Hsp27 associated with the IkappaB kinase (IKK) complex. As synthesis of the pro-inflammatory cytokine IL-8 and the prostanoid PGE(2) are regulated by NF-kappaB, this could be a probable mechanism by which Hsp27 modulates the production of these inflammatory cytokines. Thus, Hsp27 plays a protective role in regulating inflammatory responses in skin.

Abstract
Heat shock induced gene expression and other cellular responses help limit the damage caused by stress and thus facilitate cellular recovery. Cellular damage also triggers apoptotic cell death through several pathways. This paper briefly reviews interactions of the major heat shock proteins with components of the apoptotic pathways. Hsp90, which acts as a chaperone for unstable signal transducers to keep them poised for activation, interacts with RIP and Akt and promotes NF-kappa B mediated inhibition of apoptosis; in addition it also blocks some steps in the apoptotic pathways. Hsp70 is mostly anti-apoptotic and acts at several levels like inhibition of translocation of Bax into mitochondria, release of cytochrome c from mitochondria,formation of apoptosome and inhibition of activation of initiator caspases. Hsp70 also modulates JNK,NF-kappa B and Akt signaling pathways in the apoptotic cascade. In contrast, Hsp60 has both anti-and pro-apoptotic roles. Cytosolic Hsp60 prevents translocation of the pro-apoptotic protein Bax into mitochondria and thus promotes cell survival but it also promotes maturation of procaspase-3,essential for caspase mediated cell death. Our recent in vivo studies show that RNAi for the Hsp60D in Drosophila melanogaster prevents induced apoptosis. Hsp27 exerts its anti-apoptotic influence by inhibiting cytochrome c and TNF-mediated cell death. alpha beta crystallin suppresses caspase-8 and cytochrome c mediated activation of caspase-3. Studies in our laboratory also reveal that absence or reduced levels of the developmentally active as well as stress induced non-coding hsr omega transcripts, which are known to sequester diverse hnRNPs and related nuclear RNA-binding proteins,block induced apoptosis in Drosophila. Modulation of the apoptotic pathways by Hsps reflects their roles as "weak links" between various "hubs" in cellular networks. On the other hand, non-coding RNAs, by virtue of their potential to bind with multiple proteins,can act as "hubs" in these networks. In view of the integrative nature of living systems, it is not surprising that stress-induced genes,generally believed to primarily function in cell survival pathways, inhibit or even promote cell death pathways at multiple levels to ensure homeostasis at cell and/or organism level. The heat shock genes obviously do much more than merely help cells survive stress.

Id-1 promotes TGF-beta1-induced cell motility through HSP27 activation and disassembly of adherens junction in prostate epithelial cells. Exp Cell Res 2007; 313:3983-99.

Abstract
Id-1 (inhibitor of differentiation or DNA binding-1) has been positively associated with cell proliferation, cell cycle progression, and invasiveness during tumorigenesis. In addition, Id-1 has been shown to modulate cellular sensitivity to TGF-beta1 (transforming growth factor beta1). Here we demonstrate a novel role of Id-1 in promoting TGF-beta1-induced cell motility in a non-malignant prostate epithelial cell line, NPTX. We found that Id-1 promoted F-actin stress fiber formation in response to TGF-beta1, which was associated with increased cell-substrate adhesion and cell migration in NPTX cells. In addition, this positive effect of Id-1 on TGF-beta1-induced cell motility was mediated through activation of MEK-ERK signaling pathway and subsequent phosphorylation of HSP27 (heat shock protein 27). Furthermore, Id-1 disrupted the adherens junction complex in TGF-beta1-treated cells through down-regulation of E-cadherin, redistribution of beta-catenin, along with up-regulation of N-cadherin. These lines of evidence reveal a novel tumorigenic role of Id-1 through reorganization of actin cytoskeleton and disassembly of cell-cell adhesion in response to TGF-beta1 in human prostate epithelial cells, and suggest that intracellular Id-1 levels might be a determining factor for switching TGF-beta1 from a growth inhibitor to a tumor promoter during prostate carcinogenesis.

Abstract
The host-parasite relationship is based on a series of interplays between host defense mechanisms and parasite survival strategies. Progress has been made in understanding the role of host immune response in amebiasis. While host cells elaborate diverse mechanisms for pathogen expulsion, amebae have also developed complex strategies to modulate host immune response and facilitate their own survival. This paper will give an overview of current research on the mutual interactions between host and Entamoeba histolytica in human and experimental amebiasis. Understanding this crosstalk is crucial for the effective design and implementation of new vaccines and drugs for this leading parasitic disease.

Abstract
PURPOSE Suberonylanilide hydroxamic acid (SAHA) is an orally administered histone deacetylase inhibitor (HDACI) that has shown significant antitumor activity in a variety of tumor cells. To evaluate if SAHA has an activity against liver cancer, and with an aim to identify the altered cellular factors upon SAHA treatment, human HepG2 cancer cell line was used as a model, and proteomic approach was utilized to elucidate the molecular mechanisms underlying SAHA's antitumor activity. METHODS Cell growth inhibition was measured by MTT method, and apoptosis was detected by means of flow cytometry analysis and TUNEL assay. Protein expression profiles were analyzed by 2-DE coupled with MALDI-Q-TOF MS/MS analysis. RESULTS A total of 55 differentially expressed proteins were visualized by 2-DE and Coomassie Brilliant Blue (CBB) staining. Of these, 34 proteins were identified via MS/MS analysis. Among the identified proteins, six proteins also displayed significant expression changes at earlier time points upon SAHA treatment, and such alterations were further confirmed by semi-quantitative RT-PCR. Together, at both the mRNA and protein levels, SAHA suppressed the expression of reticulocalbin 1 precursor (RCN1), annexin A3 (ANXA3) and heat shock 27 kDa protein 1 (HSP27), while increasing the expression of aldose reductase (AR), triosephosphate isomerase 1 (TPI) and manganese superoxide dismutase (SOD2). CONCLUSION SAHA remarkably inhibited proliferation of HepG2 cancer cells, and induced apoptosis in vitro. Using proteomics approaches, a variety of differentially expressed proteins were identified in HepG2 cancer cells before and after treatment with SAHA. This study will enable a better understanding of the molecular mechanisms underlying SAHA-mediated antitumor effects at the protein level.

Abstract
Hsp27 and alphaB-crystallin are molecular chaperones that are constitutively expressed in several mammalian cells, particularly in pathological conditions. These proteins share functions as diverse as protection against toxicity mediated by aberrantly folded proteins or oxidative-inflammation conditions. In addition, these proteins share anti-apoptotic properties and are tumorigenic when expressed in cancer cells. This review summarizes the current knowledge about Hsp27 and alphaB-crystallin and the implications, either positive or deleterious, of these proteins in pathologies such as neurodegenerative diseases, myopathies, asthma, cataracts and cancers. Approaches towards therapeutic strategies aimed at modulating the expression and/or the activities of Hsp27 and alphaB-crystallin are presented.

Abstract
The role intestinal epithelial cells play in the pathogenesis of amebic colitis is poorly understood. Herein, we demonstrate that secreted and soluble ameba (Entamoeba histolytica) proteins (SAP) induce expression of the chemoattractant monocyte chemotactic protein (MCP) in the colonic epithelial cell lines Caco-2, T84, and LS174T. MCP-1 mRNA induction was both dose and time dependent, with peak induction occurring at 8 h and with 100 mug/ml of SAP. Significant increase in MCP-1 protein expression was observed after 12 h. SAP failed to activate any of the mitogen-activated protein kinase pathways or IkappaB kinase activity. Moreover, inhibiting the classical pathway of NF-kappaB activation did not affect SAP-induced MCP-1 expression. Instead, we find that SAP-induced MCP-1 expression is dependent on posttranslational modification of the NFkappaB p65 subunit. SAP induced phosphorylation of p65 and enhanced NF-kappaB transcriptional activity, which are phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase (PI3 kinase) dependent. Treatment with PI3 kinase inhibitor LY290004 significantly abrogated the activation of Akt, p65, and MCP-1 mRNA induction. We conclude that colonic epithelial cells play a role in the initiation of inflammation by secreting chemokines in response to soluble ameba components.

Abstract
Hamano et al. have recently reported that in murine models of amebiasis, innate resistance is associated with nonhemopoietic cells and depends on the activity of interleukin-10. This article raises the issue of the importance of predisposition to amebic colitis and discusses which host factors have a role in innate resistance to invasive disease. Resistance studies that elucidate the mechanisms involved in parasite clearance or parasite invasion are essential to understanding the incidence of amebiasis in humans.
