Mattos Pereira V, Thakar A, Nair S. Targeting iRhom2/ADAM17 attenuates COVID-19-induced cytokine release from cultured lung epithelial cells. Biochem Biophys Rep 2024; 39:101811. [PMID: 39253056 PMCID: PMC11382212 DOI: 10.1016/j.bbrep.2024.101811] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/16/2023] [Revised: 06/28/2024] [Accepted: 08/13/2024] [Indexed: 09/11/2024] Open
Abstract
The COVID-19 pandemic, caused by SARS-CoV-2, continues to pose a significant global health challenge, with acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS) being a major cause of mortality. Excessive cytokine release (cytokine storm) has been causally related to COVID-19-associated ARDS. While TNF-α inhibitors have shown potential in reducing inflammation, their broad effects on TNF-α signaling, including both pro- and anti-inflammatory pathways, present significant challenges and side effects in clinical use. Therefore, more precise therapeutic targets are urgently needed. ADAM17 is a key enzyme driving cytokine release, but its broad presence complicates direct inhibition. Targeting iRhom2, a regulator specific to immune cells that controls ADAM17's activity, offers a more focused and effective approach to reducing cytokine release. In this study, we hypothesized that targeted inhibition of ADAM-17/iRhom2 attenuates COVID-19-induced cytokine release in cultured lung epithelial cells. Human primary bronchial/tracheal epithelial cells challenged with COVID-19 pseudo-viral particles resulted in elevated cytokine release, which was attenuated following siRNA-mediated silencing of ADAM17 and iRhom2. Targeting ADAM-17/iRhom2 pathway may thus represent a strategy to overcome the COVID-19-associated ARDS.

Abstract
Hypotrichosis is a genetic disorder characterized by a diffuse and progressive loss of scalp and/or body hair. Nonetheless, the causative genes for several affected individuals remain elusive, and the underlying mechanisms have yet to be fully elucidated. Here, we discovered a dominant variant in a disintegrin and a metalloproteinase domain 17 (ADAM17) gene caused hypotrichosis with woolly hair. Adam17 (p.D647N) knockin mice mimicked the hair abnormality in patients. ADAM17 (p.D647N) mutation led to hair follicle stem cell (HFSC) exhaustion and caused abnormal hair follicles, ultimately resulting in alopecia. Mechanistic studies revealed that ADAM17 binds directly to E3 ubiquitin ligase tripartite motif-containing protein 47 (TRIM47). ADAM17 variant enhanced the association between ADAM17 and TRIM47, leading to an increase in ubiquitination and subsequent degradation of ADAM17 protein. Furthermore, reduced ADAM17 protein expression affected the Notch signaling pathway, impairing the activation, proliferation, and differentiation of HFSCs during hair follicle regeneration. Overexpression of Notch intracellular domain rescued the reduced proliferation ability caused by Adam17 variant in primary fibroblast cells.

Abstract
Recently, OTULIN haploinsufficiency was linked to enhanced susceptibility to Staphylococcus aureus infections accompanied by local necrosis and systemic inflammation. The pathogenesis observed in haploinsufficient patients differs from the hyperinflammation seen in classical OTULIN-related autoinflammatory syndrome (ORAS) patients and is characterized by increased susceptibility of dermal fibroblasts to S. aureus alpha toxin-inflicted cytotoxic damage. Immunological abnormalities were not observed in OTULIN haploinsufficient patients, suggesting a non-hematopoietic basis. In this research report, we investigated an Otulin+/- mouse model after in vivo provocation with lipopolysaccharide (LPS) to explore the potential role of hematopoietic-driven inflammation in OTULIN haploinsufficiency. We observed a hyperinflammatory signature in LPS-provoked Otulin+/- mice, which was driven by CD64+ monocytes and macrophages. Bone marrow-derived macrophages (BMDMs) of Otulin+/- mice demonstrated higher proinflammatory cytokine secretion after in vitro stimulation with LPS or polyinosinic:polycytidylic acid (Poly(I:C)). Our experiments in full and mixed bone marrow chimeric mice suggest that, in contrast to humans, the observed inflammation was mainly driven by the hematopoietic compartment with cell-extrinsic effects likely contributing to inflammatory outcomes. Using an OTULIN haploinsufficient mouse model, we validated the role of OTULIN in the regulation of environmentally directed inflammation.

Abstract
The protease ADAM17 plays an important role in inflammation and cancer and is regulated by iRhom2. Mutations in the cytosolic N-terminus of human iRhom2 cause tylosis with oesophageal cancer (TOC). In mice, partial deletion of the N-terminus results in a curly hair phenotype (cub). These pathological consequences are consistent with our findings that iRhom2 is highly expressed in keratinocytes and in oesophageal cancer. Cub and TOC are associated with hyperactivation of ADAM17-dependent EGFR signalling. However, the underlying molecular mechanisms are not understood. We have identified a non-canonical, phosphorylation-independent 14-3-3 interaction site that encompasses all known TOC mutations. Disruption of this site dysregulates ADAM17 activity. The larger cub deletion also includes the TOC site and thus also dysregulated ADAM17 activity. The cub deletion, but not the TOC mutation, also causes severe reductions in stimulated shedding, binding, and stability of ADAM17, demonstrating the presence of additional regulatory sites in the N-terminus of iRhom2. Overall, this study contrasts the TOC and cub mutations, illustrates their different molecular consequences, and reveals important key functions of the iRhom2 N-terminus in regulating ADAM17.

Cell Commun Signal 2023; 21:73. [PMID: 37046278 PMCID: PMC10091339 DOI: 10.1186/s12964-023-01087-3] [Citation(s) in RCA: 2] [Impact Index Per Article: 2.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/23/2022] [Accepted: 02/23/2023] [Indexed: 04/14/2023] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND Heart failure (HF) after myocardial infarction (MI) is a prevalent disease with a poor prognosis. Relieving pathological cardiac remodeling and preserving cardiac function is a critical link in the treatment of post-MI HF. Thus, more new therapeutic targets are urgently needed. The expression of ADAM17 is increased in patients with acute MI, but its functional role in post-MI HF remains unclear. METHODS To address this question, we examined the effects of ADAM17 on the severity and prognosis of HF within 1 year of MI in 152 MI patients with or without HF. In mechanistic studies, the effects of ADAM17 on ventricular remodeling and systolic function were extensively assessed at the tissue and cellular levels by establishing animal model of post-MI HF and in vitro hypoxic cell model. RESULTS High levels of ADAM17 predicted a higher incidence of post-MI HF, poorer cardiac function and higher mortality. Animal studies demonstrated that ADAM17 promoted the occurrence of post-MI HF, as indicated by increased infarct size, cardiomyocyte hypertrophy, myocardial interstitial collagen deposition and cardiac failure. ADAM17 knock down significantly improved pathological cardiac remodeling and cardiac function in mice with MI. Mechanistically, activated ADAM17 inhibited the cardioprotective effects of ACE2 by promoting hydrolytic shedding of the transmembrane protein ACE2 in cardiomyocytes, which subsequently mediated the occurrence of cardiac remodeling and the progression of heart failure. Moreover, the activation of ADAM17 in hypoxic cardiomyocytes was dependent on p38 MAPK phosphorylation at threonine 735. CONCLUSIONS These data highlight a novel and important mechanism for ADAM17 to cause post-MI HF, which will hopefully be a new potential target for early prediction or intervention of post-MI HF.
