ShlA toxin of Serratia induces P2Y2- and α5β1-dependent autophagy and bacterial clearance from host cells. J Biol Chem 2023; 299:105119. [PMID: 37527778 PMCID: PMC10474472 DOI: 10.1016/j.jbc.2023.105119] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/26/2023] [Revised: 07/26/2023] [Accepted: 07/27/2023] [Indexed: 08/03/2023] Open
Abstract
Serratia marcescens is an opportunistic human pathogen involved in antibiotic-resistant hospital acquired infections. Upon contact with the host epithelial cell and prior to internalization, Serratia induces an early autophagic response that is entirely dependent on the ShlA toxin. Once Serratia invades the eukaryotic cell and multiples inside an intracellular vacuole, ShlA expression also promotes an exocytic event that allows bacterial egress from the host cell without compromising its integrity. Several toxins, including ShlA, were shown to induce ATP efflux from eukaryotic cells. Here, we demonstrate that ShlA triggered a nonlytic release of ATP from Chinese hamster ovary (CHO) cells. Enzymatic removal of accumulated extracellular ATP (eATP) or pharmacological blockage of the eATP-P2Y2 purinergic receptor inhibited the ShlA-promoted autophagic response in CHO cells. Despite the intrinsic ecto-ATPase activity of CHO cells, the effective concentration and kinetic profile of eATP was consistent with the established affinity of the P2Y2 receptor and the known kinetics of autophagy induction. Moreover, eATP removal or P2Y2 receptor inhibition also suppressed the ShlA-induced exocytic expulsion of the bacteria from the host cell. Blocking α5β1 integrin highly inhibited ShlA-dependent autophagy, a result consistent with α5β1 transactivation by the P2Y2 receptor. In sum, eATP operates as the key signaling molecule that allows the eukaryotic cell to detect the challenge imposed by the contact with the ShlA toxin. Stimulation of P2Y2-dependent pathways evokes the activation of a defensive response to counteract cell damage and promotes the nonlytic clearance of the pathogen from the infected cell.

Protein kinase Cγ in cerebellar Purkinje cells regulates Ca 2+-activated large-conductance K + channels and motor coordination. Proc Natl Acad Sci U S A 2022; 119:2113336119. [PMID: 35145028 PMCID: PMC8851492 DOI: 10.1073/pnas.2113336119] [Citation(s) in RCA: 3] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Accepted: 11/21/2021] [Indexed: 11/18/2022] Open
Abstract
The cerebellum, the site where protein kinase C (PKC) was discovered, contains the highest amount of PKCγ in the central nervous system. PKCγ in the cerebellum is exclusively confined to Purkinje cells (PCs), sole outputs from the cerebellar cortex. Systemic PKCγ-knockout mice show impaired motor coordination; however, the cause of motor defects remains unknown. Here we show that activation of PKCγ suppresses the Ca2+-activated large-conductance K+ (BK) channels located along the PC dendrites. A consequential increase in the membrane resistance attenuates electrical signal decay during propagation, resulting in an altered complex spike waveform. Our results suggest that synaptically activated PKCγ in PCs plays a critical role in motor coordination by negative modulation of BK currents. The cerebellum, the site where protein kinase C (PKC) was first discovered, contains the highest amount of PKC in the central nervous system, with PKCγ being the major isoform. Systemic PKCγ-knockout (KO) mice showed impaired motor coordination and deficient pruning of surplus climbing fibers (CFs) from developing cerebellar Purkinje cells (PCs). However, the physiological significance of PKCγ in the mature cerebellum and the cause of motor incoordination remain unknown. Using adeno-associated virus vectors targeting PCs, we showed that impaired motor coordination was restored by re-expression of PKCγ in mature PKCγ-KO mouse PCs in a kinase activity–dependent manner, while normal motor coordination in mature Prkcgfl/fl mice was impaired by the Cre-dependent removal of PKCγ from PCs. Notably, the rescue or removal of PKCγ from mature PKCγ-KO or Prkcgfl/fl mice, respectively, did not affect the CF innervation profile of PCs, suggesting the presence of a mechanism distinct from multiple CF innervation of PCs for the motor defects in PKCγ-deficient mice. We found marked potentiation of Ca2+-activated large-conductance K+ (BK) channel currents in PKCγ-deficient mice, as compared to wild-type mice, which decreased the membrane resistance, resulting in attenuation of the electrical signal during the propagation and significant alterations of the complex spike waveform. These changes in PKCγ-deficient mice were restored by the rescue of PKCγ or pharmacological suppression of BK channels. Our results suggest that PKCγ is a critical regulator that negatively modulates BK currents in PCs, which significantly influences PC output from the cerebellar cortex and, eventually, motor coordination.

LysoPCs induce Hck- and PKCδ-mediated activation of PKCγ causing p47phox phosphorylation and membrane translocation in neutrophils. J Leukoc Biol 2016; 101:261-273. [PMID: 27531930 DOI: 10.1189/jlb.3a0813-420rrr] [Citation(s) in RCA: 10] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.3] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 08/01/2013] [Revised: 07/20/2016] [Accepted: 07/22/2016] [Indexed: 11/24/2022] Open
Abstract
Lysophosphatidylcholines (lysoPCs) are effective polymorphonuclear neutrophil (PMN) priming agents implicated in transfusion-related acute lung injury (TRALI). LysoPCs cause ligation of the G2A receptor, cytosolic Ca2+ flux, and activation of Hck. We hypothesize that lysoPCs induce Hck-dependent activation of protein kinase C (PKC), resulting in phosphorylation and membrane translocation of 47 kDa phagocyte oxidase protein (p47phox). PMNs, human or murine, were primed with lysoPCs and were smeared onto slides and examined by digital microscopy or separated into subcellular fractions or whole-cell lysates. Proteins were immunoprecipitated or separated by polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis and immunoblotted for proteins of interest. Wild-type (WT) and PKCγ knockout (KO) mice were used in a 2-event model of TRALI. LysoPCs induced Hck coprecipitation with PKCδ and PKCγ and the PKCδ:PKCγ complex also had a fluorescence resonance energy transfer (FRET)+ interaction with lipid rafts and Wiskott-Aldrich syndrome protein family verprolin-homologous protein 2 (WAVE2). PKCγ then coprecipitated with p47phox Immunoblotting, immunoprecipitation (IP), specific inhibitors, intracellular depletion of PKC isoforms, and PMNs from PKCγ KO mice demonstrated that Hck elicited activation/Tyr phosphorylation (Tyr311 and Tyr525) of PKCδ, which became Thr phosphorylated (Thr507). Activated PKCδ then caused activation of PKCγ, both by Tyr phosphorylation (Τyr514) and Ser phosphorylation, which induced phosphorylation and membrane translocation of p47phox In PKCγ KO PMNs, lysoPCs induced Hck translocation but did not evidence a FRET+ interaction between PKCδ and PKCγ nor prime PMNs. In WT mice, lysoPCs served as the second event in a 2-event in vivo model of TRALI but did not induce TRALI in PKCγ KO mice. We conclude that lysoPCs prime PMNs through Hck-dependent activation of PKCδ, which stimulates PKCγ, resulting in translocation of phosphorylated p47phox.

Heterologous, PKC-Mediated Desensitization of Human Histamine H3 Receptors Expressed in CHO-K1 Cells. Neurochem Res 2016; 41:2415-24. [PMID: 27350581 DOI: 10.1007/s11064-016-1954-5] [Citation(s) in RCA: 4] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/30/2015] [Revised: 05/06/2016] [Accepted: 05/11/2016] [Indexed: 12/11/2022]
Abstract
Desensitization is a major mechanism to regulate the functional response of G protein-coupled receptors. In this work we studied whether the human histamine H3 receptor of 445 amino acids (hH3R445) experiences heterologous desensitization mediated by PKC activation. Bioinformatic analysis indicated the presence of Serine and Threonine residues susceptible of PKC-mediated phosphorylation on the third intracellular loop and the carboxyl terminus of the hH3R445. In CHO-K1 cells stably transfected with the hH3R445 direct PKC activation by phorbol 12-myristate 13-acetate (TPA, 200 nM) abolished H3R-mediated inhibition of forskolin-stimulated cAMP accumulation. Activation of endogenous purinergic receptors by ATP (adenosine 5'-triphosphate, 10 μM) increased the free calcium intracellular concentration ([Ca(2+)]i) confirming their coupling to phospholipase C stimulation. Incubation with ATP also abolished H3R-mediated inhibition of forskolin-induced cAMP accumulation, and this effect was prevented by the PKC inhibitors Ro-31-8220 and Gö-6976. Pre-incubation with TPA or ATP reduced H3R-mediated stimulation of [(35)S]-GTPγS binding to membranes from CHO-K1-hH3R445 cells by 39.7 and 54.2 %, respectively, with no change in the agonist potency, and the effect was prevented by either Ro-31-8220 or Gö-6976. Exposure to ATP or TPA also resulted in the loss of cell surface H3Rs (-30.4 and -45.1 %) as evaluated by [(3)H]-NMHA binding to intact cells. These results indicate that the hH3R445 undergoes heterologous desensitization upon activation of receptors coupled to PKC stimulation.

Neurochem Res 2014; 39:2240-50.

Abstract
P2Y receptors have been implicated in the calcium mobilization by the response to neuroexcitatory substances in neurons and astrocytes, but little is known about P2Y receptors in microglia cells. In the present study, the effects of ADP on the intracellular calcium concentration ([Ca(2+)]i) in cultured dorsal spinal cord microglia were detected with confocal laser scanning microscopy using fluo-4/AM as a calcium fluorescence indicator that could monitor real-time alterations of [Ca(2+)]i. Here we show that ADP (0.01-100 μM) causes a rapid increase in [Ca(2+)]i with a dose-dependent manner in cultured microglia. The action of ADP on [Ca(2+)]i was significantly blocked by MRS2211 (a selective P2Y13 receptor antagonist), but was unaffected by MRS2179 (a selective P2Y1 receptor antagonist) or MRS2395 (a selective P2Y12 receptor antagonist), which suggest that P2Y13 receptor may be responsible for ADP-evoked Ca(2+) mobilization in cultured microglia. P2Y13-evoked Ca(2+) response can be obviously inhibited by BAPTA-AM and U-73122, respectively. Moreover, removal of extracellular Ca(2+) (by EGTA) also can obvious suppress the Ca(2+) mobilization. These results means both intracellular calcium and extracellular calcium are potentially important mechanisms in P2Y13 receptor-evoked Ca(2+) mobilization. However, P2Y13 receptor-evoked Ca(2+) response was not impaired after CdCl2 and verapamil administration, which suggest that voltage-operated Ca(2+) channels may be not related with P2Y13-evoked Ca(2+) response. In addition, Ca(2+) mobilization induced by ADP was abolished by different store-operated Ca(2+) channels (SOCs) blocker, 2-APB (50 μM) and SKF-96365 (1 mM), respectively. These observations suggest that the activation of P2Y13 receptor might be involved in the effect of ADP on [Ca(2+)]i in cultured dorsal spinal cord microglia. Furthermore, our results raise a possibility that P2Y13 receptor activation causes Ca(2+) release from Ca(2+) store, which leads to the opening of SOCs.

Abstract
Although Ca(i)(2+) waves in networks of astrocytes in vivo are well documented, propagation in vivo is much more complex than in culture, and there is no consensus concerning the dominant roles of intercellular and extracellular messengers [inositol 1,4,5-trisphosphate (IP(3)) and adenosine-5'-triphosphate (ATP)] that mediate Ca(i)(2+) waves. Moreover, to date only simplified models that take very little account of the geometrical struture of the networks have been studied. Our aim in this paper is to develop a mathematical model based on realistic cellular morphology and network connectivity, and a computational framework for simulating the model, in order to address these issues. In the model, Ca(i) (2+) wave propagation through a network of astrocytes is driven by IP(3) diffusion between cells and ATP transport in the extracellular space. Numerical simulations of the model show that different kinetic and geometric assumptions give rise to differences in Ca(i)(2+) wave propagation patterns, as characterized by the velocity, propagation distance, time delay in propagation from one cell to another, and the evolution of Ca(2+) response patterns. The temporal Ca(i)(2+) response patterns in cells are different from one cell to another, and the Ca(i)(2+) response patterns evolve from one type to another as a Ca(i)(2+) wave propagates. In addition, the spatial patterns of Ca(i)(2+) wave propagation depend on whether IP(3), ATP, or both are mediating messengers. Finally, two different geometries that reflect the in vivo and in vitro configuration of astrocytic networks also yield distinct intracellular and extracellular kinetic patterns. The simulation results as well as the linear stability analysis of the model lead to the conclusion that Ca(i)(2+) waves in astrocyte networks are probably mediated by both intercellular IP(3) transport and nonregenerative (only the glutamate-stimulated cell releases ATP) or partially regenerative extracellular ATP signaling.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES Atypical protein kinase C iota (aPKC-iota) and its associated intracellular molecules, E-cadherin and beta-catenin, are important for cell polarization in tumorigenesis and progression. Expression of aPKC-iota, P-aPKC-iota (activated aPKC-iota), E-cadherin, and beta-catenin in hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) was measured, and correlation with clinicopathological characteristics of HCC was analyzed. METHODS Paraffin-embedded tumor tissue was obtained from patients with HCC after resection without preoperative radiotherapy or chemotherapy. Gene expression was detected by polymerase chain reaction (PCR), and protein expression was detected by immunohistochemistry and Western blot analysis. Expressions of aPKC-iota, P-aPKC-iota, E-cadherin, and beta-catenin were analyzed with relation to the clinicopathological data. RESULTS The gene and protein expression of aPKC-iota are obviously higher in HCC tissues than that in peritumoral tissues and normal tissues by semiquantitative PCR and immunohistochemistry methods. Accumulation of aPKC-iota in HCC cytoplasm and nucleolus inhibited the later formation of belt-like adherens junctions (AJs) and/or tight junctions (TJs) in cell-cell contact. E-cadherin was reduced and accumulation of cytoplasm beta-catenin was increased in HCC. The expression of aPKC-iota was closely related to pathological differentiation, tumor size, invasion, and metastasis of HCC. CONCLUSION Accumulation of cytoplasm aPKC-iota may reflect pathological differentiation, invasion, and metastasis potential of HCC. In this regard, our study on HCC revealed the potential usefulness of aPKC-iota, E-cadherin, and beta-catenin as a prognostic marker, closely related to pathological differentiation, invasion, metastasis, and prognosis of HCC.
