Curr Biol 2024; 34:3102-3115.e6. [PMID: 38944035 DOI: 10.1016/j.cub.2024.06.001] [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: 03/30/2023] [Revised: 02/29/2024] [Accepted: 06/01/2024] [Indexed: 07/01/2024]
Abstract
By modulating stomatal opening and closure, plants control gas exchange, water loss, and photosynthesis in response to various environmental signals. During light-induced stomatal opening, the transport of ions and solutes across the plasma membrane (PM) of the surrounding guard cells results in an increase in turgor pressure, leading to cell swelling. Simultaneously, vesicles for exocytosis are delivered via membrane trafficking to compensate for the enlarged cell surface area and maintain an appropriate ion-channel density in the PM. In eukaryotic cells, soluble N-ethylmaleimide-sensitive factor adaptor protein receptors (SNAREs) mediate membrane fusion between vesicles and target compartments by pairing the cognate glutamine (Q)- and arginine (R)-SNAREs to form a core SNARE complex. Syntaxin of plants 121 (SYP121) is a known Q-SNARE involved in stomatal movement, which not only facilitates the recycling of K+ channels to the PM but also binds to the channels to regulate their activity. In this study, we found that the expression of a receptor-like cytoplasmic kinase, low-K+ sensitive 4/schengen 1 (LKS4/SGN1), was induced by light; it directly interacted with SYP121 and phosphorylated T270 within the SNARE motif. Further investigation revealed that LKS4-dependent phosphorylation of SYP121 facilitated the interaction between SYP121 and R-SNARE vesicle-associated membrane protein 722 (VAMP722), promoting the assembly of the SNARE complex. Our findings demonstrate that the phosphorylation of SNARE proteins is an important strategy adopted by plants to regulate the SNARE complex assembly as well as membrane fusion. Additionally, we discovered the function of LKS4/SGN1 in light-induced stomatal opening via the phosphorylation of SYP121.

Unlocking Therapeutic Synergy: Tailoring Drugs for Comorbidities such as Depression and Diabetes through Identical Molecular Targets in Different Cell Types. Cells 2023; 12:2768. [PMID: 38067196 PMCID: PMC10706795 DOI: 10.3390/cells12232768] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 10/11/2023] [Revised: 11/24/2023] [Accepted: 12/01/2023] [Indexed: 12/18/2023] Open
Abstract
Research in the field of pharmacology aims to generate new treatments for pathologies. Nowadays, there are an increased number of chronic disorders that severely and durably handicap many patients. Among the most widespread pathologies, obesity, which is often associated with diabetes, is constantly increasing in incidence, and in parallel, neurodegenerative and mood disorders are increasingly affecting many people. For years, these pathologies have been so frequently observed in the population in a concomitant way that they are considered as comorbidities. In fact, common mechanisms are certainly at work in the etiology of these pathologies. The main purpose of this review is to show the value of anticipating the effect of baseline treatment of a condition on its comorbidity in order to obtain concomitant positive actions. One of the implications would be that by understanding and targeting shared molecular mechanisms underlying these conditions, it may be possible to tailor drugs that address both simultaneously. To this end, we firstly remind readers of the close link existing between depression and diabetes and secondly address the potential benefit of the pleiotropic actions of two major active molecules used to treat central and peripheral disorders, first a serotonin reuptake inhibitor (Prozac ®) and then GLP-1R agonists. In the second part, by discussing the therapeutic potential of new experimental antidepressant molecules, we will support the concept that a better understanding of the intracellular signaling pathways targeted by pharmacological agents could lead to future synergistic treatments targeting solely positive effects for comorbidities.

Abstract
For nearly 50 years the proximal tubule (PT) has been known to reabsorb, process, and either catabolize or transcytose albumin from the glomerular filtrate. Innovative techniques and approaches have provided insights into these processes. Several genetic diseases, nonselective PT cell defects, chronic kidney disease (CKD), and acute PT injury lead to significant albuminuria, reaching nephrotic range. Albumin is also known to stimulate PT injury cascades. Thus, the mechanisms of albumin reabsorption, catabolism, and transcytosis are being reexamined with the use of techniques that allow for novel molecular and cellular discoveries. Megalin, a scavenger receptor, cubilin, amnionless, and Dab2 form a nonselective multireceptor complex that mediates albumin binding and uptake and directs proteins for lysosomal degradation after endocytosis. Albumin transcytosis is mediated by a pH-dependent binding affinity to the neonatal Fc receptor (FcRn) in the endosomal compartments. This reclamation pathway rescues albumin from urinary losses and cellular catabolism, extending its serum half-life. Albumin that has been altered by oxidation, glycation, or carbamylation or because of other bound ligands that do not bind to FcRn traffics to the lysosome. This molecular sorting mechanism reclaims physiological albumin and eliminates potentially toxic albumin. The clinical importance of PT albumin metabolism has also increased as albumin is now being used to bind therapeutic agents to extend their half-life and minimize filtration and kidney injury. The purpose of this review is to update and integrate evolving information regarding the reabsorption and processing of albumin by proximal tubule cells including discussion of genetic disorders and therapeutic considerations.

Systems biomarker characteristics of circulating alkaline phosphatase activities for 48 types of human diseases. Curr Med Res Opin 2022; 38:201-209. [PMID: 34719310 DOI: 10.1080/03007995.2021.2000715] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/27/2021] [Revised: 10/13/2021] [Accepted: 10/25/2021] [Indexed: 10/19/2022]
Abstract
BACKGROUND Most human diseases are accompanied by systems changes. Systems biomarkers should reflect such changes. The phosphorylation and dephosphorylation of biomolecules maintain human homeostasis. However, the systems biomarker characteristics of circulating alkaline phosphatase, a routine blood test conducted for many human diseases, have never been investigated. METHOD This study retrieved the circulating alkaline phosphatase (ALP) activities from patients with 48 clinically confirmed diseases and healthy individuals from the database of our hospital during the past five years. A detailed analysis of the statistical characteristics of ALP was conducted, including quantiles, receiving operator curve (ROC), and principal component analysis. RESULTS Among the 48 diseases, 45 had increased, and three had decreased median levels of ALP activities compared to the healthy control. Preeclampsia, hepatic encephalopathy, pancreatic cancer, and liver cancer had the highest median values, whereas nephrotic syndrome, lupus erythematosus, and nephritis had decreased median values compared to the healthy control. Further, area under curve (AUC) values were ranged between 0.61 and 0.87 for 19 diseases, and the ALP activities were the best systems biomarker for preeclampsia (AUC 0.87), hepatic encephalopathy (AUC 0.87), liver cancer (AUC 0.81), and pancreatic cancer (AUC 0.81). CONCLUSIONS Alkaline phosphatase was a decent systems biomarker for 19 different types of human diseases. Understanding the molecular mechanisms of over-up-and-down-regulation of ALP activities might be the key to understanding the whole-body systems' reactions during specific disease progression.

Abstract
SNARE proteins and Sec1/Munc18 (SM) proteins constitute the core molecular engine that drives nearly all intracellular membrane fusion and exocytosis. While SNAREs are known to couple their folding and assembly to membrane fusion, the physiological pathways of SNARE assembly and the mechanistic roles of SM proteins have long been enigmatic. Here, we review recent advances in understanding the SNARE-SM fusion machinery with an emphasis on biochemical and biophysical studies of proteins that mediate synaptic vesicle fusion. We begin by discussing the energetics, pathways, and kinetics of SNARE folding and assembly in vitro. Then, we describe diverse interactions between SM and SNARE proteins and their potential impact on SNARE assembly in vivo. Recent work provides strong support for the idea that SM proteins function as chaperones, their essential role being to enable fast, accurate SNARE assembly. Finally, we review the evidence that SM proteins collaborate with other SNARE chaperones, especially Munc13-1, and briefly discuss some roles of SNARE and SM protein deficiencies in human disease.

Abstract
Intracellular protein trafficking processes consisting of three intracellular states are described by three differential equations. To solve the equations, a quadratic equation is required, and its roots are generally real or complex. The purpose of the present study is to clarify the meanings of roots of real and complex numbers. To clarify the point, we define that: 1) ‘kI’ is the insertion rate from an insertion state trafficking to the plasma membrane state; 2) ‘kE’, the endocytotic rate from the plasma membrane state trafficking to a recycling state; 3) ‘kR’, the recycling rate from the recycling state trafficking to the insertion state. Amounts of proteins in three states are expressed as αelt+βemt+γ with α,β,γ = constant and l and m are roots of a quadratic equation, r2+kI+kE+kRr+kIkE+kIkR+kEkR=0. When l and m are real kI2+kE2+kR2>2kIkE+kEkR+kRkI, amounts of proteins in three states shows no oscillatory change but a monotonic change after a transient increase (or decrease); when l and m are complex kI2+kE2+kR2<2kIkE+kEkR+kRkI, amounts of proteins in three states are expressed as αelt+βemt+γ=2g2+h2sinbt+σeat+γ (α, β, l, m = complex and γ,a,b,g,h,σ = real: α,β = conjugate each other; l,m = conjugate each other), showing an oscillatory change with time. The frequency of oscillatory change appearance is evaluated to be 60% at random combinations of three trafficking rates, kI, kE and kR. The present study indicates that complex numbers have an essentially important meaning in appearance of oscillatory phenomena in bodily and cellular function.

Abstract
Tyrosine phosphorylation of secretion machinery proteins is a crucial regulatory mechanism for exocytosis. However, the participation of protein tyrosine phosphatases (PTPs) in different exocytosis stages has not been defined. Here we demonstrate that PTP-MEG2 controls multiple steps of catecholamine secretion. Biochemical and crystallographic analyses reveal key residues that govern the interaction between PTP-MEG2 and its substrate, a peptide containing the phosphorylated NSF-pY83 site, specify PTP-MEG2 substrate selectivity, and modulate the fusion of catecholamine-containing vesicles. Unexpectedly, delineation of PTP-MEG2 mutants along with the NSF binding interface reveals that PTP-MEG2 controls the fusion pore opening through NSF independent mechanisms. Utilizing bioinformatics search and biochemical and electrochemical screening approaches, we uncover that PTP-MEG2 regulates the opening and extension of the fusion pore by dephosphorylating the DYNAMIN2-pY125 and MUNC18-1-pY145 sites. Further structural and biochemical analyses confirmed the interaction of PTP-MEG2 with MUNC18-1-pY145 or DYNAMIN2-pY125 through a distinct structural basis compared with that of the NSF-pY83 site. Our studies thus provide mechanistic insights in complex exocytosis processes.

Abstract
Macroautophagy/autophagy is an evolutionarily conserved intracellular pathway for the degradation of cytoplasmic materials. Under stress conditions, autophagy is upregulated and double-membrane autophagosomes are formed by the expansion of phagophores. The ATG16L1 precursor fusion contributes to development of phagophore structures and is critical for the biogenesis of autophagosomes. Here, we discovered a novel role of the protein tyrosine phosphatase PTPN9 in the regulation of homotypic ATG16L1 vesicle fusion and early autophagosome formation. Depletion of PTPN9 and its Drosophila homolog Ptpmeg2 impaired autophagosome formation and autophagic flux. PTPN9 colocalized with ATG16L1 and was essential for homotypic fusion of ATG16L1+ vesicles during starvation-induced autophagy. We further identified the Q-SNARE VTI1B as a substrate target of PTPN9 phosphatase. Like PTPN9, the VTI1B nonphosphorylatable mutant but not the phosphomimetic mutant enhanced SNARE complex assembly and autophagic flux. Our findings highlight the important role of PTPN9 in the regulation of ATG16L1+ autophagosome precursor fusion and autophagosome biogenesis through modulation of VTI1B phosphorylation status.Abbreviations: csw: corkscrew; EBSS: Earle's balanced salt solution; ERGIC: ER-Golgi intermediate compartment; ESCRT: endosomal sorting complexes required for transport; mop: myopic; NSF: N-ethylmaleimide-sensitive factor; PAS: phagophore assembly site; PolyQ: polyglutamine; PtdIns3P: phosphatidylinositol-3-phosphate; PTK: protein tyrosine kinase; PTM: posttranslational modification; PTP: protein tyrosine phosphatase; PTPN23/HD-PTP: protein tyrosine phosphatase non-receptor type 23; SNARE: soluble N-ethylmaleimide sensitive factor attachment protein receptor; STX7: syntaxin 7; STX8: syntaxin 8; STX17: syntaxin 17; VAMP3: vesicle associated membrane protein 3; VAMP7: vesicle associated membrane protein 7; VTI1B: vesicle transport through interaction with t-SNAREs 1B; YKT6: YKT6 v-SNARE homolog; ZFYVE1/DFCP1: zinc finger FYVE-type containing 1.

Biochim Biophys Acta Mol Basis Dis 2020; 1866:165775. [PMID: 32209364 DOI: 10.1016/j.bbadis.2020.165775] [Citation(s) in RCA: 25] [Impact Index Per Article: 6.3] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/16/2020] [Revised: 03/12/2020] [Accepted: 03/17/2020] [Indexed: 01/06/2023]
Abstract
CD36 and GLUT4 are the main cardiac trans-sarcolemmal transporters for long-chain fatty acids and glucose, respectively. Together they secure the majority of cardiac energy demands. Moreover, these transporters each represent key governing kinetic steps in cardiac fatty acid and glucose fluxes, thereby offering major sites of regulation. The underlying mechanism of this regulation involves a perpetual vesicle-mediated trafficking (recycling) of both transporters between intracellular stores (endosomes) and the cell surface. In the healthy heart, CD36 and GLUT4 translocation to the cell surface is under short-term control of the same physiological stimuli, most notably increased contraction and insulin secretion. However, under chronic lipid overload, a condition that accompanies a Western lifestyle, CD36 and GLUT4 recycling are affected distinctly, with CD36 being expelled to the sarcolemma while GLUT4 is imprisoned within the endosomes. Moreover, the increased CD36 translocation towards the cell surface is a key early step, setting the heart on a route towards insulin resistance and subsequent contractile dysfunction. Therefore, the proteins making up the trafficking machinery of CD36 need to be identified with special focus to the differences with the protein composition of the GLUT4 trafficking machinery. These proteins that are uniquely dedicated to either CD36 or GLUT4 traffic may offer targets to rectify aberrant substrate uptake seen in the lipid-overloaded heart. Specifically, CD36-dedicated trafficking regulators should be inhibited, whereas such GLUT4-dedicated proteins would need to be activated. Recent advances in the identification of CD36-dedicated trafficking proteins have disclosed the involvement of vacuolar-type H+-ATPase and of specific vesicle-associated membrane proteins (VAMPs). In this review, we summarize these recent findings and sketch a roadmap of CD36 and GLUT4 trafficking compatible with experimental findings.

Abstract
Soluble N-ethylmaleimide-sensitive factor attachment protein receptors (SNAREs) have been implicated in the trafficking of postsynaptic glutamate receptors, including N-methyl-d-aspartate (NMDA)-subtype glutamate receptors (NMDARs) that are critical for nociceptive plasticity and behavioral sensitization. However, the components of SNAREs complex involved in spinal nociceptive processing remain largely unknown. Here we found that SNAP25, syntaxin4, VAMP2 and Munc18-1 were localized at postsynaptic sites and formed the complex in the superficial lamina of spinal cord dorsal horn of rats. The complex formation between these SNAREs components were accelerated after intraplantar injection of complete Freund's adjuvant (CFA), pharmacological removal of GABAergic inhibition or activation of NMDAR in intact rats. The increased SNAP25/syntaxin4/VAMP2/Munc18-1 interaction facilitated the surface delivery and synaptic accumulation of NMDAR during inflammatory pain. Disruption of the molecular interaction between SNAP25 with its SNARE partners by using a blocking peptide derived from the C-terminus of SNAP25 effectively repressed the surface and synaptic accumulation of GluN2B-containing NMDARs in CFA-injected rats. This peptide also alleviated inflammatory mechanical allodynia and thermal hypersensitivity. These data suggested that SNAREs complex assembly in spinal cord dorsal horn was involved in the inflammatory pain hypersensitivity through promoting NMDAR synaptic trafficking.

Abstract
Ischemic heart disease (IHD) has a genetic predisposition and a number of cardiovascular risk factors are known to be affected by genetic factors. Development of metabolic syndrome and insulin resistance, strongly influenced by lifestyle and environmental factors, frequently occur in subjects with a genetic susceptibility. The definition of genetic factors influencing disease susceptibility would allow to identify individuals at higher risk and thus needing to be closely monitored.To this end, we focused on a complex of soluble-N-ethylmaleimide-sensitive factor attachment protein receptors (SNAREs), playing an important role in metabolic syndrome and insulin resistance, involved in endothelial dysfunction and heart disease. We assessed if genetic variants of the SNARE genes are associated with IHD.SNAP25 rs363050, Stx-1A rs4717806, rs2293489, and VAMP2 26bp ins/del genetic polymorphisms were analyzed in a cohort of 100 participants who underwent heart surgery; 56 of them were affected by IHD, while 44 were not. A statistical association of plasma glycemia and insulin resistance, calculated as Triglyceride glucose (TyG) index, was observed in IHD (P < .001 and P = .03, respectively) after binomial logistic stepwise regression analysis, adjusted by age, gender, diabetes positivity, waist circumference, and cholesterol plasma level. Among genetic polymorphisms, rs4717806(A) and rs2293489(T), as well as the rs4717806 - rs2293489 (A-T) haplotype were associated with higher risk for IHD (Pc = .02; Pc = .02; P = .04, respectively). Finally, a statistical association of rs4717806(AA) genotype with higher TyG index in IHD patients (P = .03) was highlighted by multiple regression analysis considering log-transformed biochemical parameters as dependent variable and presence of coronary artery disease, age, gender, waist circumference, presence of diabetes as predictors. These results point to a role of the Stx-1A rs4717806 SNP in IHD, possibly due to its influence on Stx-1A expression and, as a consequence, on insulin secretion and glucose metabolism.

Abstract
Ca2+-dependent secretion is a process by which important signaling molecules that are produced within a cell-including proteins and neurotransmitters-are expelled to the extracellular environment. The cellular mechanism that underlies secretion is referred to as exocytosis. Many years of work have revealed that exocytosis in neurons and neuroendocrine cells is tightly coupled to Ca2+ and orchestrated by a series of protein-protein/protein-lipid interactions. Here, we highlight landmark discoveries that have informed our current understanding of the process. We focus principally on reductionist studies performed using powerful model secretory systems and cell-free reconstitution assays. In recent years, molecular cloning and genetics have implicated the involvement of a sizeable number of proteins in exocytosis. We expect reductionist approaches will be central to attempts to resolve their roles. The Journal of General Physiology will continue to be an outlet for much of this work, befitting its tradition of publishing strongly mechanistic, basic research.

Abstract
The soluble N-ethylmaleimide-sensitive factor attachment protein receptor (SNARE) complex comprises synaptosome-associated protein of 25 kDa (SNAP25), syntaxin-1a (syx-1), and synaptobrevin 2, which is essential for many physiologic processes requiring membrane fusion. Several studies imply that the loop region of SNAP25 plays important roles in SNARE-complex assembly. However, why and how the flexible loop facilitates the complex assembly remains poorly understood because it is purposely deleted in almost all structural studies. By using NMR spectroscopy and circular dichroism spectropolarimetry, we characterized SNAP25 structure and interactions with other SNAREs in aqueous buffer and in the membrane. We found that the N-terminal of the SNAP25 loop region binds with membrane, and this interaction induced a disorder-to-order conformational change of the loop, resulting in enhanced interaction between the C-terminal of the SNAP25 loop and syx-1. We further proved that SNARE-complex assembly efficiency decreased when we disrupted the electrostatic interaction between C-terminal of the SNAP25 loop and syx-1, suggesting that the SNAP25 loop region facilitates SNARE-complex assembly through promoting prefusion SNARE binary complex formation. Our work elucidates the role of the flexible loop and the membrane environment in SNARE-complex assembly at the residue level, which helps to understand membrane fusion, a fundamental transport and communication process in cells.-Jiang, X., Zhang, Z., Cheng, K., Wu, Q., Jiang, L., Pielak, G.
