Holte C, Szafranska K, Kruse L, Simon-Santamaria J, Li R, Svistounov D, McCourt P. Highly oxidized albumin is cleared by liver sinusoidal endothelial cells via the receptors stabilin-1 and -2. Sci Rep 2023; 13:19121. [PMID: 37926735 PMCID: PMC10625979 DOI: 10.1038/s41598-023-46462-9] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 08/23/2023] [Accepted: 11/01/2023] [Indexed: 11/07/2023] Open
Abstract
Oxidized albumin (oxHSA) is elevated in several pathological conditions, such as decompensated cirrhosis, acute on chronic liver failure and liver mediated renal failure. Patient derived oxidized albumin was previously shown to be an inflammatory mediator, and in normal serum levels of oxHSA are low. The removal from circulation of oxidized albumins is therefore likely required for maintenance of homeostasis. Liver sinusoidal endothelial cells (LSEC) are prominent scavenger cells specialized in removal of macromolecular waste. Given that oxidized albumin is mainly cleared by the liver, we hypothesized the LSEC are the site of uptake in the liver. In vivo oxHSA was cleared rapidly by the liver and distributed to mainly the LSEC. In in vitro studies LSEC endocytosed oxHSA much more than other cell populations isolated from the liver. Furthermore, it was shown that the uptake was mediated by the stabilins, by affinity chromatography-mass spectrometry, inhibiting uptake in LSEC with other stabilin ligands and showing uptake in HEK cells overexpressing stabilin-1 or -2. oxHSA also inhibited the uptake of other stabilin ligands, and a 2-h challenge with 100 µg/mL oxHSA reduced LSEC endocytosis by 60% up to 12 h after. Thus the LSEC and their stabilins mediate clearance of highly oxidized albumin, and oxidized albumin can downregulate their endocytic capacity in turn.

Abstract
Advanced glycation end-products (AGEs) constitute a non-homogenous, chemically diverse group of compounds formed either exogeneously or endogeneously on the course of various pathways in the human body. In general, they are formed non-enzymatically by condensation between carbonyl groups of reducing sugars and free amine groups of nucleic acids, proteins, or lipids, followed by further rearrangements yielding stable, irreversible end-products. In the last decades, AGEs have aroused the interest of the scientific community due to the increasing evidence of their involvement in many pathophysiological processes and diseases, such as diabetes, cancer, cardiovascular, neurodegenerative diseases, and even infection with the SARS-CoV-2 virus. They are recognized by several cellular receptors and trigger many signaling pathways related to inflammation and oxidative stress. Despite many experimental research outcomes published recently, the complexity of their engagement in human physiology and pathophysiological states requires further elucidation. This review focuses on the receptors of AGEs, especially on the structural aspects of receptor-ligand interaction, and the diseases in which AGEs are involved. It also aims to present AGE classification in subgroups and to describe the basic processes leading to both exogeneous and endogeneous AGE formation.

Abstract
Hemophilia A is an X-linked hereditary disorder that results from deficient coagulation factor VIII (FVIII) activity, leading to spontaneous bleeding episodes, particularly in joints and muscles. FVIII deficiency has been associated with altered bone remodeling, dysregulated macrophage polarization, and inflammatory processes that are associated with the neoformation of abnormal blood vessels. Treatment based on FVIII replacement can lead to the development of inhibitors that render FVIII concentrate infusion ineffective. In this context, hemophilia has entered a new therapeutic era with the development of new drugs, such as emicizumab, that seek to restore the hemostatic balance by bypassing pathologically acquired antibodies. We discuss the potential extrahemostatic functions of FVIII that may be crucial for defining future therapies in hemophilia.

Abstract
Scavenger receptors perform essential functions, critical to maintaining mammalian physiologic homeostasis by continuously clearing vast numbers of biomolecules from blood, interstitial fluid and lymph. Stabilin-2 (Stab2) and the Hyaluronic Acid Receptor for Endocytosis (HARE), a proteolytic isoform of Stab2, are important scavenger receptors responsible for the specific binding and internalization (leading to degradation) of 22 discrete molecules, macromolecular complexes and cell types. One-third of these ligands are glycosaminoglycans (GAGs). Full-length Stab2, but not HARE, mediates efficient phagocytosis of apoptotic cells and bacteria via binding to target surface ligands. HARE, the C-terminal half of Stab2, mediates endocytosis of all the known soluble ligands. HA was the first ligand identified, in 1981, prior to receptor purification or cloning. Seven other GAG ligands were subsequently identified: heparin, dermatan sulfate, chondroitin and chondroitin sulfates A, C, D and E. Synthetic dextran sulfate is also a GAG mimic and ligand. HARE signaling during HA endocytosis was first discovered in 2008, and we now know that activation of HARE/Stab2 signaling is stimulated by receptor-mediated endocytosis or phagocytosis of many, but not all, of its ligands. This review focuses on the HARE-mediated GAG activation of intracellular signaling, particularly the Extracellular Signal-Regulated Kinase 1/2 pathway.

Abstract
Stabilin-2/HARE is the primary clearance receptor for circulating hyaluronan (HA), a polysaccharide found in the extracellular matrix (ECM) of metazoans. HA has many biological functions including joint lubrication, ocular turgor pressure, skin elasticity and hydration, cell motility, and intercellular signaling, among many others. The regulatory system for HA content in the tissues, lymphatics, and circulatory systems is due, in part, to Stabilin-2/HARE. The activity of this receptor was discovered about 40 years ago (early 1980s), cloned in the mid-1990s, and has been characterized since then. Here, we discuss the overall domain organization of this receptor and how it correlates to ligand binding, cellular signaling, and its role in known physiological disorders such as cancer.

Abstract
Since the discovery of a novel liver hyaluronan (HA) clearance receptor in 1981 by Laurent, Fraser and coworkers, 22 different ligands cleared by the renamed receptor (the Hyaluronan Receptor for Endocytosis (HARE); Stabilin-2 (Stab2)) were discovered over 37 years. Ligands fall into three groups: (1) 11 anionic polymers, (2) seven cleaved or modified proteins and (3) four types of cells. Seven synthetic ligands, not found normally in serum or tissues, likely mimic natural molecules cleared by the receptor. In 2002 we purified and cloned HARE, based on HA-binding activity, and two other groups cloned full-length receptor; FEEL-2 and Stab2. Macrophages likely require full-length Stab2 for efficient binding and phagocytosis of bacteria or apoptotic cells, since cell-binding domains are throughout the receptor. In contrast, all 16 known single-molecule binding sites are only within the C-terminal half (190HARE). The HARE isoform is generated by proteolysis, not mRNA splicing. The majority of circulating ligands is cleared by HARE, since sinusoidal endothelial cells of liver, spleen and lymph node express twice as many HARE half-receptors as full-length receptors. Based on their significant binding and functional differences, a modified receptor nomenclature is proposed that designates HARE as the C-terminal half-receptor isoform and Stab2 as the full-length receptor isoform.

Abstract
The Stabilin receptors are a two-member family in the type H class of scavenger receptors. These dynamic receptors bind and internalize multiple ligands from the cell surface for the purpose of clearing extracellular material including some synthetic drugs and for sensing the external environment of the cell. Stabilin-1 was the first receptor to be cloned, though the biological activity of Hyaluronic Acid Receptor for Endocytosis (HARE)/Stabilin-2 was observed about 10 years prior to the cloning of Stabilin-1. Stabilin-1 has a more diverse expression profile among the tissues than HARE/Stabilin-2. This review will focus on HARE/Stabilin-2 and its interactions with hyaluronan, heparin, and phosphorothioate antisense oligonucleotides and what is known about how this receptor participates in signaling upon ligand binding.

Abstract
This review focuses on the properties that an RNase H-activating antisense oligonucleotide (ASO) drug must have to function effectively in animals, as well as on medicinal chemistry strategies to achieve these properties. The biochemistry and structural requirements for activating RNase H are briefly summarized, as well as chemical modifications that can effect activation of RNase H when an ASO is bound to target RNA. The key modifications available to the medicinal chemist to engineer desired properties of the ASO are briefly reviewed, as are ASO design strategies to achieve optimal activity in animal systems. Lastly, the interactions of ASOs with proteins and strategies to control these interactions to improve the profile of ASOs are discussed.

Abstract
Antisense oligonucleotides (ASOs) are chemically synthesized nucleic acid analogs designed to bind to RNA by Watson-Crick base pairing. Following binding to the targeted RNA, the ASO perturbs RNA function by promoting selective degradation of the targeted RNA, altering RNA intermediary metabolism, or disrupting function of the RNA. Most antisense drugs are chemically modified to enhance their pharmacological properties and for passive targeting of the tissues of therapeutic interest. Recent advances in selective tissue targeting have resulted in a newer generation of ASO drugs that are more potent and better tolerated than previous generations, spawning renewed interest in identifying selective ligands that enhance targeted delivery of ASOs to tissues.

Abstract
Scavenger receptors are a highly diverse superfamily of proteins which are grouped by their inherent ability to bind and internalize a wide array of structurally diverse ligands which can be either endogenous or exogenous in nature. Consequently, scavenger receptors are known to play important roles in host homeostasis, with common endogenous ligands including apoptotic cells, and modified low density lipoproteins (LDLs); additionally, scavenger receptors are key regulators of inflammatory diseases, such as atherosclerosis. Also, as a consequence of their affinity for a wide range of microbial products, their role in innate immunity is also being increasingly studied. However, in this review, a secondary function of a number of endothelial-expressed scavenger receptors is discussed. There is increasing evidence that some endothelial-expressed scavenger receptors are able to directly bind leukocyte-expressed ligands and subsequently act as adhesion molecules in the trafficking of leukocytes in lymphatic and vascular tissues. Here, we cover the current literature on this alternative role for endothelial-expressed scavenger receptors and also speculate on their therapeutic potential.

Abstract
Myoblast fusion is tightly regulated during development and regeneration of muscle fibers. BAI3 is a receptor that orchestrates myoblast fusion via Elmo/Dock1 signaling, but the mechanisms regulating its activity remain elusive. Here we report that mice lacking BAI3 display small muscle fibers and inefficient muscle regeneration after cardiotoxin-induced injury. We describe two proteins that repress or activate BAI3 in muscle progenitors. We find that the secreted C1q-like1-4 proteins repress fusion by specifically interacting with BAI3. Using a proteomic approach, we identify Stabilin-2 as a protein that interacts with BAI3 and stimulates its fusion promoting activity. We demonstrate that Stabilin-2 activates the GPCR activity of BAI3. The resulting activated heterotrimeric G-proteins contribute to the initial recruitment of Elmo proteins to the membrane, which are then stabilized on BAI3 through a direct interaction. Collectively, our results demonstrate that the activity of BAI3 is spatiotemporally regulated by C1qL4 and Stabilin-2 during myoblast fusion.

Abstract
Second-generation (Gen 2) Antisense oligonucleotides (ASOs) show increased nuclease stability and affinity for their RNA targets, which has translated to improved potency and therapeutic index in the clinic. Gen 2 ASOs are typically modified using the phosphorothioate (PS) backbone modification, which enhances ASO interactions with plasma, cell surface, and intracellular proteins. This facilitates ASO distribution to peripheral tissues and also promotes cellular uptake after injection into animals. Previous work identified that Stabilin receptors specifically internalize PS-ASOs in the sinusoidal endothelial cells of the liver and the spleen. By modulating expression of specific proteins involved in the trafficking and maturation of the endolysosomal compartments, we show that Rab5C and EEA1 in the early endosomal pathway, and Rab7A and lysobisphosphatidic acid in the late endosomal pathway, are important for trafficking of PS-ASOs and facilitate their escape from endolysosomal compartments after Stabilin-mediated internalization. In conclusion, this work identifies key rate-limiting proteins in the pathway for PS-ASO translocation and escape from the endosome.

Abstract
Fifteen different ligands, including heparin (Hep), are cleared from lymph and blood by the Hyaluronan (HA) Receptor for Endocytosis (HARE; derived from Stabilin-2 by proteolysis), which contains four endocytic motifs (M1-M4). Endocytosis of HARE•Hep complexes is targeted to coated pits by M1, M2, and M3 (Pandey et al, Int. J. Cell Biol. 2015, article ID 524707), which activates ERK1/2 and NF-κB (Pandey et al J. Biol. Chem. 288, 14068-79, 2013). Here, we used a NF-κB promoter-driven luciferase gene assay and cell lines expressing different HARE cytoplasmic domain mutants to identify motifs needed for Hep-mediated signaling. Deletion of M1, M2 or M4 singly had no effect on Hep-mediated ERK1/2 activation, whereas signaling (but not uptake) was eliminated in HARE(ΔM3) cells lacking NPLY2519. ERK1/2 signaling in cells expressing WT HARE(Y2519A) or HARE(Y2519A) lacking M1, M2 and M4 (containing M3-only) was decreased by 75% or eliminated, respectively. Deletion of M3 (but not M1, M2 or M4) also inhibited the formation of HARE•Hep•ERK1/2 complexes by 67%. NF-κB activation by HARE-mediated uptake of Hep, HA, dermatan sulfate or acetylated LDL was unaffected in single-motif deletion mutants lacking M1, M2 or M4. In contrast, cells expressing HARE(ΔM3) showed loss of HARE-mediated NF-κB activation during uptake of each of these four ligands. NF-κB activation by the four signaling ligands was also eliminated in HARE(Y2519A) or HARE(M3-only;Y2519A) cells. We conclude that the HARE NPLY2519 motif is necessary for both ERK1/2 and NF-κB signaling and that Tyr2519 is critical for these functions.
