Wang L, Zeng W, Wang C, Lu Y, Xiong X, Chen S, Huang Q, Yan F, Huang Q. SUMOylation and coupling of eNOS mediated by PIAS1 contribute to maintenance of vascular homeostasis. FASEB J 2024; 38:e23362. [PMID: 38102979 DOI: 10.1096/fj.202301963r] [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: 09/25/2023] [Revised: 11/16/2023] [Accepted: 11/27/2023] [Indexed: 12/17/2023]
Abstract
Endothelial dysfunction (ED) is commonly considered a crucial initiating step in the pathogenesis of numerous cardiovascular diseases. The coupling of endothelial nitric oxide synthase (eNOS) is important in maintaining normal endothelial functions. However, it still remains elusive whether and how eNOS SUMOylation affects the eNOS coupling. In the study, we investigate the roles and possible action mechanisms of protein inhibitor of activated STAT 1 (PIAS1) in ED. Human umbilical vein endothelial cells (HUVECs) treated with palmitate acid (PA) in vitro and ApoE-/- mice fed with high-fat diet (HFD) in vivo were constructed as the ED models. Our in vivo data show that PIAS1 alleviates the dysfunction of vascular endothelium by increasing nitric oxide (NO) level, reducing malondialdehyde (MDA) level, and activating the phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase-protein kinase B-endothelial nitric oxide synthase (PI3K-AKT-eNOS) signaling in ApoE-/- mice. Our in vitro data also show that PIAS1 can SUMOylate eNOS under endogenous conditions; moreover, it antagonizes the eNOS uncoupling induced by PA. The findings demonstrate that PIAS1 alleviates the dysfunction of vascular endothelium by promoting the SUMOylation and inhibiting the uncoupling of eNOS, suggesting that PIAS1 would become an early predictor of atherosclerosis and a new potential target of the hyperlipidemia-related cardiovascular diseases.

Hum Cell 2023; 36:1915-1927.

Abstract
The protein PIAS1 functions as a type of ubiquitin-protease, which is known to play an important regulatory role in various diseases, including cardiovascular diseases and cancers. Its mechanism of action primarily revolves around regulating the transcription, translation, and modification of target proteins. This study investigates role and mechanism of PIAS1 in the RUNX3/TSP-1 axis and confirms its therapeutic effects on diabetes-related complications in animal models. A diabetic vascular injury was induced in human umbilical vein endothelial cells (HUVECs) by stimulation with H2O2 and advanced glycation end product (AGE), and a streptozotocin (STZ)-induced mouse model of diabetes was constructed, followed by detection of endogenous PIAS1 expression and SUMOylation level of RUNX3. Effects of PIAS1 concerning RUNX3 and TSP-1 on the HUVEC apoptosis and inflammation were evaluated using the ectopic expression experiments. Down-regulated PIAS1 expression and SUMOylation level of RUNX3 were identified in the H2O2- and AGE-induced HUVEC model of diabetic vascular injury and STZ-induced mouse models of diabetes. PIAS1 promoted the SUMOylation of RUNX3 at the K148 site of RUNX3. PIAS1-mediated SUMOylation of RUNX3 reduced RUNX3 transactivation activity, weakened the binding of RUNX3 to the promoter region of TSP-1, and caused downregulation of TSP-1 expression. PIASI decreased the expression of TSP-1 by inhibiting H2O2- and AGE-induced RUNX3 de-SUMOylation, thereby arresting the inflammatory response and apoptosis of HUVECs. Besides, PIAS1 reduced vascular endothelial injury and atherosclerotic plaque formation in mouse models of diabetes by inhibiting the RUNX3/TSP-1 axis. Our study proved that PIAS1 suppressed vascular endothelial injury and atherosclerotic plaque formation in mouse models of diabetes via the RUNX3/TSP-1 axis.

Sumoylation in Physiology, Pathology and Therapy. Cells 2022; 11:cells11050814.

Abstract
Sumoylation is an essential post-translational modification that has evolved to regulate intricate networks within emerging complexities of eukaryotic cells. Thousands of target substrates are modified by SUMO peptides, leading to changes in protein function, stability or localization, often by modulating interactions. At the cellular level, sumoylation functions as a key regulator of transcription, nuclear integrity, proliferation, senescence, lineage commitment and stemness. A growing number of prokaryotic and viral proteins are also emerging as prime sumoylation targets, highlighting the role of this modification during infection and in immune processes. Sumoylation also oversees epigenetic processes. Accordingly, at the physiological level, it acts as a crucial regulator of development. Yet, perhaps the most prominent function of sumoylation, from mammals to plants, is its role in orchestrating organismal responses to environmental stresses ranging from hypoxia to nutrient stress. Consequently, a growing list of pathological conditions, including cancer and neurodegeneration, have now been unambiguously associated with either aberrant sumoylation of specific proteins and/or dysregulated global cellular sumoylation. Therapeutic enforcement of sumoylation can also accomplish remarkable clinical responses in various diseases, notably acute promyelocytic leukemia (APL). In this review, we will discuss how this modification is emerging as a novel drug target, highlighting from the perspective of translational medicine, its potential and limitations.

Abstract
SUMOylation is a transient posttranslational modification with small-ubiquitin like modifiers (SUMO1, SUMO2 and SUMO3) covalently attached to their target-proteins via a multi-step enzymatic cascade. SUMOylation modifies protein-protein interactions, enzymatic-activity or chromatin binding in a multitude of key cellular processes, acting as a highly dynamic molecular switch. To guarantee the rapid kinetics, SUMO target-proteins are kept in a tightly controlled equilibrium of SUMOylation and deSUMOylation. DeSUMOylation is maintained by the SUMO-specific proteases, predominantly of the SENP family. SENP1 and SENP2 represent family members tuning SUMOylation status of all three SUMO isoforms, while SENP3 and SENP5 are dedicated to detach mainly SUMO2/3 from its substrates. SENP6 and SENP7 cleave polySUMO2/3 chains thereby countering the SUMO-targeted-Ubiquitin-Ligase (StUbL) pathway. Several biochemical studies pinpoint towards the SENPs as critical enzymes to control balanced SUMOylation/deSUMOylation in cardiovascular health and disease. This study aims to review the current knowledge about the SUMO-specific proteases in the heart and provides an integrated view of cardiac functions of the deSUMOylating enzymes under physiological and pathological conditions.

Abstract
During the development of multicellular organisms, transcriptional regulation plays an important role in the control of cell growth, differentiation and morphogenesis. SUMOylation is a reversible post-translational process involved in transcriptional regulation through the modification of transcription factors and through chromatin remodelling (either modifying chromatin remodelers or acting as a ‘molecular glue’ by promoting recruitment of chromatin regulators). SUMO modification results in changes in the activity, stability, interactions or localization of its substrates, which affects cellular processes such as cell cycle progression, DNA maintenance and repair or nucleocytoplasmic transport. This review focuses on the role of SUMO machinery and the modification of target proteins during embryonic development and organogenesis of animals, from invertebrates to mammals.

Abstract
SUMOylation is an evolutionarily conserved post-translational modification (PTM) that regulates protein subcellular localization, stability, conformation, transcription and enzymatic activity. Recent studies indicate that SUMOylation plays a key role in insulin gene expression, glucose metabolism and insulin exocytosis under physiological conditions in the pancreatic beta cells. Furthermore, SUMOylation is implicated in beta cell survival and recovery following exposure to oxidative stress, ER stress and inflammatory mediators under pathological situations. SUMOylation is closely regulated by the cellular redox status, and it collaborates with other PTMs such as phosphorylation, ubiquitination, and NEDDylation, to maintain beta cellular homeostasis. We hereby provide an update on recent findings regarding the role of SUMOylation in the regulation of pancreatic beta cell viability and function, and discuss its potential implication in beta cell senescence and RNA processing (e.g., pre-mRNA splicing and mRNA methylation). Through which we intend to provide novel insights into this fundamental biological process regarding both maintenance of beta cell viability and functionality, and beta cell dysfunction in diabetes mellitus.

Abstract
We have modified a multitude of transcription factors (TFs) in numerous plant species and some animal species, and obtained transgenic lines that exhibit phenotypic alterations. Whenever we observe phenotypic changes in a TF's transgenic lines, we are always eager to identify its target genes, collaborative regulators and even upstream high hierarchical regulators. This issue can be addressed by establishing a multilayered hierarchical gene regulatory network (ML-hGRN) centered around a given TF. In this article, a practical approach for constructing an ML-hGRN centered on a TF using a combined approach of top-down and bottom-up network construction methods is described. Strategies for constructing ML-hGRNs are vitally important, as these networks provide key information to advance our understanding of how biological processes are regulated.

Abstract
In essentially all eukaryotes, proteins can be modified by the attachment of small ubiquitin-related modifier (SUMO) proteins to lysine side chains to produce branched proteins. This process of 'SUMOylation' plays essential roles in plant and animal development by altering protein function in spatially and temporally controlled ways. In this Primer, we explain the process of SUMOylation and summarize how SUMOylation regulates a number of signal transduction pathways. Next, we discuss multiple roles of SUMOylation in the epigenetic control of transcription. In addition, we evaluate the role of SUMOylation in the etiology of neurodegenerative disorders, focusing on Parkinson's disease and cerebral ischemia. Finally, we discuss the possibility that SUMOylation may stimulate survival and neurogenesis of neuronal stem cells.

Age-Dependent and -Independent Effects of Perivascular Adipose Tissue and Its Paracrine Activities during Neointima Formation. Int J Mol Sci 2019; 21:ijms21010282.

Abstract
Cardiovascular risk factors may act by modulating the composition and function of the adventitia. Here we examine how age affects perivascular adipose tissue (PVAT) and its paracrine activities during neointima formation. Aortic tissue and PVAT or primary aortic smooth muscle cells from male C57BL/6JRj mice aged 52 weeks (“middle-aged”) were compared to tissue or cells from mice aged 16 weeks (“adult”). Vascular injury was induced at the carotid artery using 10% ferric chloride. Carotid arteries from the middle-aged mice exhibited smooth muscle de-differentiation and elevated senescence marker expression, and vascular injury further aggravated media and adventitia thickening. Perivascular transplantation of PVAT had no effect on these parameters, but age-independently reduced neointima formation and lumen stenosis. Quantitative PCR analysis revealed a blunted increase in senescence-associated proinflammatory changes in perivascular tissue compared to visceral adipose tissue and higher expression of mediators attenuating neointima formation. Elevated levels of protein inhibitor of activated STAT1 (PIAS1) and lower expression of STAT1- or NFκB-regulated genes involved in adipocyte differentiation, inflammation, and apoptosis/senescence were present in mouse PVAT, whereas PIAS1 was reduced in the PVAT of patients with atherosclerotic vessel disease. Our findings suggest that age affects adipose tissue and its paracrine vascular activities in a depot-specific manner. PIAS1 may mediate the age-independent vasculoprotective effects of perivascular fat.

Abstract
PURPOSE Protein sumoylation is a well established regulatory mechanism that regulates chromatin structure and dynamics, cell proliferation and differentiation, stress response and cell apoptosis. In the vertebrate eye, we and others have shown that sumoylation plays an indispensable role in regulating eye development. During stress induction and aging process, the ocular tissues gradually loss their normality and develop major ocular diseases such as cataract and aging-related macular degeneration. We have recently demonstrated that sumoylation actively regulates differentiation of lens cells, whether this process is implicated in lens pathogenesis remains to be investigated. In this study, we have demonstrated that transparent mouse lenses treated with glucose oxidase and UVA irradiation undergo in vitro cataract formation, and associated with this process, the expression patterns of the 3 sumoylation enzymes have been found significantly altered. METHODS Four-week-old C57BL/6J mice were used in our experiment. Lenses were carefully excised from eyes and cultured in M199 medium (Sigma 3769) for at least 12 hours. Transparent lenses (without surgical damage) were selected for experimentation. The lenses were exposed to UVA for 60 min or treated with 30 mU/mL glucose oxidase (GO, MP Biomedicals, 1673) to induce cataract formation. The mRNA levels were analysed with qRT-PCR. The protein levels were determined with western blot analysis and quantitated with Image J. RESULTS we have obtained the following results: 1) Both GO treatment and UVA irradiation can induce cataract formation in the in vitro cultured mouse lenses; 2) With GO treatment, the mRNAs and proteins for the 5 sumoylation enzymes were all significantly downregulated; 3) With UVA irradiation, the changes in the expression patterns of the mRNAs and proteins for the SAE1, UBA2 , UBC9 and PIAS1 were opposite, while the mRNAs were upregulated either significantly (for SAE1, UBA2 and UBC9) or slightly (PIAS1), the proteins for all 4 sumoylation enzymes were downregulated; For RanBP2, the UVA induced changes in both mRNA and protein are consist with the GO treatment. CONCLUSION Under GO and UVA irradiation conditions, the expression levels of both mRNA and protein for the three major sumoylation enzymes were significantly changed. Our results suggest that altered expression patterns of the sumoylation enzymes are associated with oxidative stressinduced cataractogenesis.

Abstract
Angiogenesis is the process of endothelial cell migration and proliferation induced by angiogenic factors, which is essential for the development of tumors. In recent years, studies have reported that SUMOylation acts on tumor angiogenesis by targeting angiogenic factors as one of post-translational modifications of proteins. Anti-angiogenic therapy is a new treatment method for tumor treatment following radiotherapy and chemotherapy, and it inhibits tumor growth by blocking tumor blood vessels. Therefore, SUMOylation may become a potential target for anti-angiogenesis therapy. This article focuses on the effect of SUMOylation on vascular growth factors, important signaling pathways proteins, and the migration and function of endothelial cells, in order to provide a new research idea for the anti-angiogenic therapy of tumors.

This process regulates several cellular machineries, including transcription, DNA damage repair, cell-cycle progression, and apoptosis. Accordingly, SUMOylation is critical in maintaining cellular homeostasis, and its deregulation leads to the corruption of a plethora of cellular processes that contribute to disease states. Among the proteins involved in SUMOylation, the protein inhibitor of activated STAT (PIAS) E3-ligases were initially described as transcriptional coregulators. Recent findings also indicate that they have a role in regulating protein stability and signaling transduction pathways. PIAS proteins interact with up to 60 cellular partners affecting several cellular processes, most notably immune regulation and DNA repair, but also cellular proliferation and survival. Here, we summarize the current knowledge about their role in tumorigenesis and cancer-related processes. Cancer Res; 77(7); 1542-7. ©2017 AACR.
