Mao H, Kim GH, Pan L, Qi L. Regulation of leptin signaling and diet-induced obesity by SEL1L-HRD1 ER-associated degradation in POMC expressing neurons. Nat Commun 2024; 15:8435.

Abstract
Endoplasmic reticulum (ER) homeostasis in the hypothalamus has been implicated in the pathogenesis of diet-induced obesity (DIO) and type 2 diabetes; however, the underlying molecular mechanism remain vague and debatable. Here we report that SEL1L-HRD1 protein complex of the highly conserved ER-associated protein degradation (ERAD) machinery in POMC-expressing neurons ameliorates diet-induced obesity and its associated complications, partly by regulating the turnover of the long isoform of Leptin receptors (LepRb). Loss of SEL1L in POMC-expressing neurons attenuates leptin signaling and predisposes mice to HFD-associated pathologies including fatty liver, glucose intolerance, insulin and leptin resistance. Mechanistically, nascent LepRb, both wildtype and disease-associated Cys604Ser variant, are misfolding prone and bona fide substrates of SEL1L-HRD1 ERAD. In the absence of SEL1L-HRD1 ERAD, LepRb are largely retained in the ER, in an ER stress-independent manner. This study uncovers an important role of SEL1L-HRD1 ERAD in the pathogenesis of central leptin resistance and leptin signaling.

Promotion of endoplasmic reticulum retrotranslocation by overexpression of E3 ubiquitin-protein ligase synoviolin 1 reduces endoplasmic reticulum stress and preserves cone photoreceptors in cyclic nucleotide-gated channel deficiency. FASEB J 2024; 38:e70021. [PMID: 39215566 PMCID: PMC11419579 DOI: 10.1096/fj.202400198r] [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: 01/26/2024] [Revised: 07/29/2024] [Accepted: 08/19/2024] [Indexed: 09/04/2024]
Abstract
Cone photoreceptor cyclic nucleotide-gated (CNG) channels play an essential role in phototransduction and cellular Ca2+ homeostasis. Mutations in genes encoding the channel subunits CNGA3 and CNGB3 are associated with achromatopsia, progressive cone dystrophy, and early-onset macular degeneration. Cone loss in patients with achromatopsia and cone dystrophy associated with CNG channel mutations has been documented by optical coherence tomography and in mouse models of CNG channel deficiency. Cone death in CNG channel-deficient retinas involves endoplasmic reticulum (ER) stress-associated apoptosis, dysregulation of cellular/ER Ca2+ homeostasis, impaired protein folding/processing, and impaired ER-associated degradation (ERAD). The E3 ubiquitin-protein ligase synoviolin 1 (SYVN1) is the primary component of the SYVN1/SEL1L ER retrotranslocon responsible for ERAD. Previous studies have shown that manipulations that protect cones and reduce ER stress/cone death in CNG channel deficiency, such as increasing ER Ca2+ preservation or treatment with an ER chaperone, increase the expression of SYVN1 and other components of the ER retrotranslocon. The present work investigated the effects of SYVN1 overexpression. Intraocular injection of AAV5-IRBP/GNAT2-Syvn1 resulted in overexpression of SYVN1 in cones of CNG channel-deficient mice. Following treatment, cone density in Cnga3-/- mice was significantly increased, compared with untreated controls, outer segment localization of cone opsin was improved, and ER stress/apoptotic cell death was reduced. Overexpression of SYVN1 also led to increased expression levels of the retrotranslocon components, degradation in ER protein 1 (DERL1), ERAD E3 ligase adaptor subunit (SEL1L), and homocysteine inducible ER protein with ubiquitin-like domain 1 (HERPUD1). Moreover, overexpression of SYVN1 likely enhanced protein ubiquitination/proteasome degradation in CNG channel-deficient retinas. This study demonstrates the role of SYVN1/ERAD in cone preservation in CNG channel deficiency and supports the strategy of promoting ERAD for cone protection.

Abstract
Endoplasmic reticulum-associated degradation (ERAD) is a principal quality-control mechanism responsible for targeting misfolded ER proteins for cytosolic degradation. Evidence suggests that impairment of ERAD contributes to neuron dysfunction and death in neurodegenerative diseases, many of which are characterized by accumulation and aggregation of misfolded proteins. However, the physiological role of ERAD in neurons remains unclear. The Sel1L-Hrd1 complex consisting of the E3 ubiquitin ligase Hrd1 and its adaptor protein Sel1L is the best-characterized ERAD machinery. Herein, we showed that Sel1L deficiency specifically in neurons of adult mice impaired the ERAD activity of the Sel1L-Hrd1 complex and led to disruption of ER homeostasis, ER stress and activation of the unfold protein response (UPR). Adult mice with Sel1L deficiency in neurons exhibited weight loss and severe motor dysfunction, and rapidly succumbed to death. Interestingly, Sel1L deficiency in neurons caused global brain atrophy, particularly cerebellar and hippocampal atrophy, in adult mice. Moreover, we found that cerebellar and hippocampal atrophy in these mice resulted from degeneration of Purkinje neurons and hippocampal neurons, respectively. These findings indicate that ERAD is required for maintaining ER homeostasis and the viability and function of neurons in adults under physiological conditions.

Abstract
Stress granules (SGs) are membrane-less cellular compartments which are dynamically assembled via biomolecular condensation mechanism when eukaryotic cells encounter environmental stresses. SGs are important for gene expression and cell fate regulation. Dysregulation of SG homeostasis has been linked to human neurodegenerative disorders, including amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS) and frontotemporal dementia (FTD). Here we report that the HRD1-SEL1L ubiquitin ligase complex specifically regulates the homeostasis of heat shock-induced SGs through the ubiquitin-proteasome system (UPS) and the UPS-associated ATPase p97. Mechanistically, the HRD1-SEL1L complex mediates SG homeostasis through the BiP-coupled PERK-eIF2α signaling axis of endoplasmic reticulum (ER) stress, thereby coordinating the unfolded protein response (UPR) with SG dynamics. Furthermore, we show that the distinctive branches of ER stress play differential roles in SG homeostasis. Our study indicates that the UPS and the UPR together via the HRD1-SEL1L ubiquitin ligase to maintain SG homeostasis in a stressor-dependent manner.

Abstract
Endoplasmic reticulum (ER) stress and neuroinflammation play an important role in secondary brain damage after traumatic brain injury (TBI). Due to the complex brain cytoarchitecture, multiple cell types are affected by TBI. However, cell type-specific and sex-specific responses to ER stress and neuroinflammation remain unclear. Here we investigated differential regulation of ER stress and neuroinflammatory pathways in neurons and microglia during the acute phase post-injury in a mouse model of impact acceleration TBI in both males and females. We found that TBI resulted in significant weight loss only in males, and sensorimotor impairment and depressive-like behaviors in both males and females at the acute phase post-injury. By concurrently isolating neurons and microglia from the same brain sample of the same animal, we were able to evaluate the simultaneous responses in neurons and microglia towards ER stress and neuroinflammation in both males and females. We discovered that the ER stress and anti-inflammatory responses were significantly stronger in microglia, especially in female microglia, compared with the male and female neurons. Whereas the degree of phosphorylated-tau (pTau) accumulation was significantly higher in neurons, compared with the microglia. In conclusion, TBI resulted in behavioral deficits and cell type-specific and sex-specific responses to ER stress and neuroinflammation, and abnormal protein accumulation at the acute phase after TBI in immature mice.

Abstract
The maintenance of antigen-specific CD8+ T cells underlies the efficacy of vaccines and immunotherapies. Pathways contributing to CD8+ T cell loss are not completely understood. Uncovering the pathways underlying the limited persistence of CD8+ T cells would be of significant benefit for developing novel strategies of promoting T cell persistence. Here, we demonstrate that murine CD8+ T cells experience endoplasmic reticulum (ER) stress following activation and that the ER-associated degradation (ERAD) adapter Sel1L is induced in activated CD8+ T cells. Sel1L loss limits CD8+ T cell function and memory formation following acute viral infection. Mechanistically, Sel1L is required for optimal bioenergetics and c-Myc expression. Finally, we demonstrate that human CD8+ T cells experience ER stress upon activation and that ER stress is negatively associated with improved T cell functionality in T cell-redirecting therapies. Together, these results demonstrate that ER stress and ERAD are important regulators of T cell function and persistence.

Abstract
Flaviviruses target their replication on membranous structures derived from the ER, where both viral and host proteins play crucial structural and functional roles. Here, we have characterized the involvement of the ER-associated degradation (ERAD) pathway core E3 ligase complex (SEL1L-HRD1) regulator proteins in the replication of Japanese encephalitis virus (JEV). Through high-resolution immunofluorescence imaging of JEV-infected HeLa cells, we observe that the virus replication complexes marked by NS1 strongly colocalize with the ERAD adapter SEL1L, lectin OS9, ER-membrane shuttle factor HERPUD1, E3 ubiquitin ligase HRD1 and rhomboid superfamily member DERLIN1. NS5 positive structures also show strong overlap with SEL1L. While these effectors show significant transcriptional upregulation, their protein levels remain largely stable in infected cells. siRNA mediated depletion of OS9, SEL1L, HERPUD1 and HRD1 significantly inhibit viral RNA replication and titres, with SEL1L depletion showing the maximum attenuation of replication. By performing protein translation arrest experiments, we show that SEL1L, and OS9 are stabilised upon JEV infection. Overall results from this study suggest that these ERAD effector proteins are crucial host-factors for JEV replication.

Abstract
Mosquito-borne flaviviruses such as dengue (DENV) and Zika (ZIKV) cause hundreds of millions of infections annually. The single-stranded RNA genome of flaviviruses is translated into a polyprotein, which is cleaved equally into individual functional proteins. While structural proteins are packaged into progeny virions and released, most of the nonstructural proteins remain intracellular and could become cytotoxic if accumulated over time. However, the mechanism by which nonstructural proteins are maintained at the levels optimal for cellular fitness and viral replication remains unknown. Here, we identified that the ubiquitin E3 ligase HRD1 is essential for flaviviruses infections in both mammalian hosts and mosquitoes. HRD1 directly interacts with flavivirus NS4A and ubiquitylates a conserved lysine residue for ER-associated degradation. This mechanism avoids excessive accumulation of NS4A, which otherwise interrupts the expression of processed flavivirus proteins in the ER. Furthermore, a small-molecule inhibitor of HRD1 named LS-102 effectively interrupts DENV2 infection in both mice and Aedes aegypti mosquitoes, and significantly disturbs DENV transmission from the infected hosts to mosquitoes owing to reduced viremia. Taken together, this study demonstrates that flaviviruses have evolved a sophisticated mechanism to exploit the ubiquitination system to balance the homeostasis of viral proteins for their own advantage and provides a potential therapeutic target to interrupt flavivirus infection and transmission.

Abstract
Accumulating evidence has implicated impaired extracellular matrix (ECM) clearance as a key factor in fibrotic disease. Despite decades of research elucidating the effectors of ECM clearance, relatively little is understood regarding the upstream regulation of this process. Collagen is the most abundant constituent of normal and fibrotic ECM in mammalian tissues. Its catabolism occurs through extracellular proteolysis and cell-mediated uptake of collagen fragments for intracellular degradation. Given the paucity of information regarding the regulation of this latter process, here we execute unbiased genome-wide screens to understand the molecular underpinnings of cell-mediated collagen clearance. Using this approach, we discover a mechanism through which collagen biosynthesis is sensed by cells internally and directly regulates clearance of extracellular collagen. The sensing mechanism appears to be dependent on endoplasmic reticulum-resident protein SEL1L and occurs via a noncanonical function of this protein. This pathway functions as a homeostatic negative feedback loop that limits collagen accumulation in tissues. In human fibrotic lung disease, the induction of this collagen clearance pathway by collagen synthesis is impaired, thereby contributing to the pathological accumulation of collagen in lung tissue. Thus, we describe cell-autonomous, rheostatic collagen clearance as an important pathway of tissue homeostasis.

Abstract
The SEL1L-HRD1 protein complex represents the most conserved branch of endoplasmic reticulum (ER)-associated degradation (ERAD). Despite recent advances in both mouse models and humans, in vivo evidence for the importance of SEL1L in the ERAD complex formation and its (patho-)physiological relevance in mammals remains limited. Here we report that SEL1L variant p.Ser658Pro (SEL1LS658P) is a pathogenic hypomorphic mutation, causing partial embryonic lethality, developmental delay, and early-onset cerebellar ataxia in homozygous mice carrying the bi-allelic variant. Biochemical analyses reveal that SEL1LS658P variant not only reduces the protein stability of SEL1L, but attenuates the SEL1L-HRD1 interaction, likely via electrostatic repulsion between SEL1L F668 and HRD1 Y30 residues. Proteomic screens of SEL1L and HRD1 interactomes reveal that SEL1L-HRD1 interaction is a prerequisite for the formation of a functional HRD1 ERAD complex, as SEL1L is required for the recruitment of E2 enzyme UBE2J1 as well as DERLIN to HRD1. These data not only establish the disease relevance of SEL1L-HRD1 ERAD, but also provide additional insight into the formation of a functional HRD1 ERAD complex.

Abstract
Endoplasmic reticulum-associated degradation (ERAD) plays indispensable roles in many physiological processes; however, the nature of endogenous substrates remains largely elusive. Here we report a proteomics strategy based on the intrinsic property of the SEL1L-HRD1 ERAD complex to identify endogenous ERAD substrates both in vitro and in vivo. Following stringent filtering using a machine learning algorithm, over 100 high-confidence potential substrates are identified in human HEK293T and mouse brown adipose tissue, among which ~88% are cell type-specific. One of the top shared hits is the catalytic subunit of the glycosylphosphatidylinositol (GPI)-transamidase complex, PIGK. Indeed, SEL1L-HRD1 ERAD attenuates the biogenesis of GPI-anchored proteins by specifically targeting PIGK for proteasomal degradation. Lastly, several PIGK disease variants in inherited GPI deficiency disorders are also SEL1L-HRD1 ERAD substrates. This study provides a platform and resources for future effort to identify proteome-wide endogenous substrates in vivo, and implicates SEL1L-HRD1 ERAD in many cellular processes including the biogenesis of GPI-anchored proteins.

Abstract
The suppressor of lin-12-like-HMG-CoA reductase degradation 1 (SEL1L-HRD1) complex of the endoplasmic reticulum-associated degradation (ERAD) machinery is a key cellular proteostasis pathway. Although previous studies have shown ERAD as promoting the development and maintenance of many cell types in mice, its importance to human physiology remained undetermined. In two articles in this issue of the JCI, Qi and colleagues describe four biallelic hypomorphic SEL1L and HRD1 variants that were associated with neurodevelopment disorders, locomotor dysfunction, impaired immunity, and premature death in patients. These pathogenic SEL1L-HRD1 variants shine a light on the critical importance of ERAD in humans and pave the way for future studies dissecting ERAD mechanisms in specific cell types.

Abstract
Recent studies using cell type-specific knockout mouse models have improved our understanding of the pathophysiological relevance of suppressor of lin-12-like-HMG-CoA reductase degradation 1 (SEL1L-HRD1) endoplasmic reticulum-associated (ER-associated) degradation (ERAD); however, its importance in humans remains unclear, as no disease variant has been identified. Here, we report the identification of 3 biallelic missense variants of SEL1L and HRD1 (or SYVN1) in 6 children from 3 independent families presenting with developmental delay, intellectual disability, microcephaly, facial dysmorphisms, hypotonia, and/or ataxia. These SEL1L (p.Gly585Asp, p.Met528Arg) and HRD1 (p.Pro398Leu) variants were hypomorphic and impaired ERAD function at distinct steps of ERAD, including substrate recruitment (SEL1L p.Gly585Asp), SEL1L-HRD1 complex formation (SEL1L p.Met528Arg), and HRD1 activity (HRD1 p.Pro398Leu). Our study not only provides insights into the structure-function relationship of SEL1L-HRD1 ERAD, but also establishes the importance of SEL1L-HRD1 ERAD in humans.

Abstract
Suppressor of lin-12-like-HMG-CoA reductase degradation 1 (SEL1L-HRD1) ER-associated degradation (ERAD) plays a critical role in many physiological processes in mice, including immunity, water homeostasis, and energy metabolism; however, its relevance and importance in humans remain unclear, as no disease variant has been identified. Here, we report a biallelic SEL1L variant (p. Cys141Tyr) in 5 patients from a consanguineous Slovakian family. These patients presented with not only ERAD-associated neurodevelopmental disorders with onset in infancy (ENDI) syndromes, but infantile-onset agammaglobulinemia with no mature B cells, resulting in frequent infections and early death. This variant disrupted the formation of a disulfide bond in the luminal fibronectin II domain of SEL1L, largely abolishing the function of the SEL1L-HRD1 ERAD complex in part via proteasomal-mediated self destruction by HRD1. This study reports a disease entity termed ENDI-agammaglobulinemia (ENDI-A) syndrome and establishes an inverse correlation between SEL1L-HRD1 ERAD functionality and disease severity in humans.

Abstract
Endoplasmic reticulum (ER) homeostasis in the hypothalamus has been implicated in the pathogenesis of certain patho-physiological conditions such as diet-induced obesity (DIO) and type 2 diabetes; however, the significance of ER quality control mechanism(s) and its underlying mechanism remain largely unclear and highly controversial in some cases. Moreover, how the biogenesis of nascent leptin receptor in the ER is regulated remains largely unexplored. Here we report that the SEL1L-HRD1 protein complex of the highly conserved ER-associated protein degradation (ERAD) machinery in POMC neurons is indispensable for leptin signaling in diet-induced obesity. SEL1L-HRD1 ERAD is constitutively expressed in hypothalamic POMC neurons. Loss of SEL1L in POMC neurons attenuates leptin signaling and predisposes mice to HFD-associated pathologies including leptin resistance. Mechanistically, newly synthesized leptin receptors, both wildtype and disease-associated human mutant Cys604Ser (Cys602Ser in mice), are misfolding prone and bona fide substrates of SEL1L-HRD1 ERAD. Indeed, defects in SEL1L-HRD1 ERAD markedly impair the maturation of these receptors and causes their ER retention. This study not only uncovers a new role of SEL1L-HRD1 ERAD in the pathogenesis of diet-induced obesity and central leptin resistance, but a new regulatory mechanism for leptin signaling.

Abstract
PURPOSE SYVN1 is an endoplasmic reticulum (ER)-resident E3 ubiquitin ligase that has an essential function along with SEL1L in rheumatoid arthritis (RA) pathogenesis. This study aimed to investigate the changes in the expression of peripheral blood ncRNAs and SYVN1-SEL1L affected by DMARDs treatment. METHODS Twenty-five newly diagnosed RA patients were randomly assigned to receive conventional DMARDs (csDMARDs) and methylprednisolone for six months. The peripheral blood gene expression of SYVN1 and SEL1L and possible regulatory axes, NEAT1, miR-125a-5p, and miR-19b-3p, were evaluated before and after qRT-PCR. We also compared differences between the patients and healthy controls (HCs), and statistical analyses were performed to determine the correlation between ncRNAs with SYVN1-SEL1L and the clinical parameters of RA. RESULTS Expression of NEAT1 (P = 0.0001), miR-19b-3p (P = 0.007), miR-125a-5p (P = 0.005), and SYVN1 (P = 0.036) was significantly increased in newly diagnosed patients compared to HCs; also, miR-125a-5p, miR-19b-3p, and SYVN1 were significantly overexpressed after treatment (P = 0.001, P = 0.001, and P = 0.005, respectively). NEAT1 was positively correlated with SYVN1, and miR-125a-5p had a negative correlation with anti-cyclic citrullinated peptides. The ROC curve analysis showed the potential role of selected ncRNAs in RA pathogenesis. CONCLUSION The results indicate the ineffectiveness of the csDMARDs in reducing SYVN1 expression. The difference in expression of ncRNAs might be useful markers for monitoring disease activity and determining therapeutic responses in RA patients. Key Points • The expression of NEAT1 is significantly upregulated in RA patients compared to HC subjects. • miR-19b-3p, miR-125a-5p, and SYVN1 are significantly upregulated in RA patients compared to HC subjects. • The expression of miR-19b-3p and miR-125a-5p is significantly increased in RA patients after treatment with DMARDs and methylprednisolone. • NEAT1 is positively correlated with SYVN1.

Abstract
Parkinson's Disease (PD) is caused by many factors and endoplasmic reticulum (ER) stress is considered as one of the responsible factors for it. ER stress induces the activation of the ubiquitin-proteasome system to degrade unfolded proteins and suppress cell death. The ubiquitin ligase 3-hydroxy-3-methylglutaryl-coenzyme A reductase degradation 1 (HRD1) and its stabilizing molecule, the suppressor/enhancer lin-12-like (SEL1L), can suppress the ER stress via the ubiquitin-proteasome system, and that HRD1 can also suppress cell death in familial and nonfamilial PD models. These findings indicate that HRD1 and SEL1L might be key proteins for the treatment of PD. Our study aimed to identify the compounds with the effects of upregulating the HRD1 expression and suppressing neuronal cell death in a 6-hydroxydopamine (6-OHDA)-induced cellular PD model. Our screening by the Drug Gene Budger, a drug repositioning tool, identified luteolin as a candidate compound for the desired modulation of the HRD1 expression. Subsequently, we confirmed that low concentrations of luteolin did not show cytotoxicity in SH-SY5Y cells, and used these low concentrations in the subsequent experiments. Next, we demonsrated that luteolin increased HRD1 and SEL1L mRNA levels and protein expressions. Furthermore, luteolin inhibited 6-OHDA-induced cell death and suppressed ER stress response caused by exposure to 6-OHDA. Finally, luteolin did not reppress 6-OHDA-induced cell death when expression of HRD1 or SEL1L was suppressed by RNA interference. These findings suggest that luteolin might be a novel therapeutic agent for PD due to its ability to suppress ER stress through the activation of HRD1 and SEL1L.

Abstract
Protein folding, quality control, maturation, and trafficking are essential processes for proper cellular homeostasis. Around one-third of the human proteome is targeted to the endoplasmic reticulum (ER), the organelle that serves as entrance into the secretory pathway. Successful protein trafficking is paramount for proper cellular function and to that end there are many ER resident proteins that ensure efficient secretion. Here, biochemical and cell biological analysis was used to determine that TTC17 is a large, soluble, ER-localized protein that plays an important role in secretory trafficking. Transcriptional analysis identified the predominantly expressed protein isoform of TTC17 in various cell lines. Further, TTC17 localizes to the ER and interacts with a wide variety of chaperones and cochaperones normally associated with ER protein folding, quality control, and maturation processes. TTC17 was found to be significantly upregulated by ER stress and through the creation and use of TTC17-/- cell lines, quantitative mass spectrometry identified secretory pathway wide trafficking defects in the absence of TTC17. Notably, trafficking of insulin-like growth factor type 1 receptor, glycoprotein nonmetastatic melanoma protein B, clusterin, and UDP-glucose:glycoprotein glucosyltransferase 1 were significantly altered in H4 neuroglioma cells. This study defines a novel ER trafficking factor and provides insight into the protein-protein assisted trafficking in the early secretory pathway.

Abstract
Misfolded endoplasmic reticulum (ER) proteins are degraded through a process called ER-associated degradation (ERAD). Soluble, lumenal ERAD targets are recognized, retrotranslocated across the ER membrane, ubiquitinated, extracted from the membrane, and degraded by the proteasome using an ERAD pathway containing a ubiquitin ligase called Hrd1. To determine how Hrd1 mediates these processes, we developed a deep mutational scanning approach to identify residues involved in Hrd1 function, including those exclusively required for lumenal degradation. We identify several regions required for different Hrd1 functions. Most surprisingly, we find two cytosolic regions of Hrd1 required for lumenal ERAD substrate degradation. Using in vivo and in vitro approaches, we define roles for disordered regions between structural elements that are required for Hrd1 autoubiquitination and substrate interaction. Our results demonstrate that disordered cytosolic regions promote substrate retrotranslocation by controlling Hrd1 activation and establishing directionality of retrotranslocation for lumenal substrate across the ER membrane.

Abstract
Maintaining proteome integrity is essential for long-term viability of all organisms and is overseen by intrinsic quality control mechanisms. The secretory pathway of eukaryotes poses a challenge for such quality assurance as proteins destined for secretion enter the endoplasmic reticulum (ER) and become spatially segregated from the cytosolic machinery responsible for disposal of aberrant (misfolded or otherwise damaged) or superfluous polypeptides. The elegant solution provided by evolution is ER-membrane-bound ubiquitylation machinery that recognizes misfolded or surplus proteins or by-products of protein biosynthesis in the ER and delivers them to 26S proteasomes for degradation. ER-associated protein degradation (ERAD) collectively describes this specialized arm of protein quality control via the ubiquitin-proteasome system. But, instead of providing a single strategy to remove defective or unwanted proteins, ERAD represents a collection of independent processes that exhibit distinct yet overlapping selectivity for a wide range of substrates. Not surprisingly, ER-membrane-embedded ubiquitin ligases (ER-E3s) act as central hubs for each of these separate ERAD disposal routes. In these processes, ER-E3s cooperate with a plethora of specialized factors, coordinating recognition, transport and ubiquitylation of undesirable secretory, membrane and cytoplasmic proteins. In this Review, we focus on substrate processing during ERAD, highlighting common threads as well as differences between the many routes via ERAD.

Abstract
SEL1L-mediated endoplasmic reticulum-associated degradation (ERAD) plays critical roles in controlling protein homeostasis by degrading misfolded or terminal unfolded proteins. However, it remains unclear how SEL1L regulates peripheral T-cell survival and homeostasis. Herein, we found that SEL1L deficiency led to a greatly reduced frequency and number of mature T cells, which was further validated by adoptive transfer experiments or bone marrow chimera experiments, accompanied by the induction of multiple forms of cell death. Furthermore, SEL1L deficiency selectively disrupted naïve CD8+ T-cell homeostasis, as indicated by the severe loss of the naïve T-cell subset but an increase in the memory T-cell subset. We also found that SEL1L deficiency fueled mTORC1/c-MYC activation and induced a metabolic shift, which was largely attributable to enhanced expression of the IL-15 receptor α and β chains. Mechanistically, single-cell transcriptomic profiling and biochemical analyses further revealed that Sel1l-/- CD8+ T cells harbored excessive ER stress, particularly aberrant activation of the PERK-ATF4-CHOP-Bim pathway, which was alleviated by supplementing IL-7 or IL-15. Importantly, PERK inhibition greatly resolved the survival defects of Sel1l-/- CD8+ T cells. In addition, IRE1α deficiency decreased mTORC1 signaling in Sel1l-/- naïve CD8+ T cells by downregulating the IL-15 receptor α chain. Altogether, these observations suggest that the ERAD adaptor molecule SEL1L acts as an important checkpoint for preserving the survival and homeostasis of peripheral T cells by regulating the PERK signaling cascade and IL-15 receptor-mediated mTORC1 axis.

Abstract
Accumulating evidence has implicated impaired extracellular matrix (ECM) clearance as a key factor in fibrotic disease. Despite decades of research elucidating the effectors of ECM clearance, relatively little is understood regarding the upstream regulation of this process. Collagen is the most abundant constituent of normal and fibrotic ECM in mammalian tissues. Its catabolism occurs through extracellular proteolysis and cell-mediated uptake of collagen fragments for intracellular degradation. Given the paucity of information regarding the regulation of this latter process, we executed unbiased genome-wide screens to understand the molecular underpinnings of cell-mediated collagen clearance. Using this approach, we discovered a previously unappreciated mechanism through which collagen biosynthesis is sensed by cells internally and directly regulates clearance of extracellular collagen. The sensing mechanism is dependent on endoplasmic reticulum-resident protein SEL1L and occurs via a noncanonical function of SEL1L. This pathway functions as a homeostatic negative feedback loop that limits collagen accumulation in tissues. In human fibrotic lung disease, the induction of this collagen clearance pathway by collagen synthesis is impaired, thereby contributing to the pathological accumulation of collagen in lung tissue. Thus cell-autonomous, rheostatic collagen clearance is a previously unidentified pathway of tissue homeostasis.

Abstract
To study the effects of Cu overload on ER quality control in duck cerebrums, 144 ducks were treated with 8 mg/kg, 100 mg/kg, 200 mg/kg and 400 mg/kg Cu added in the feed for 45 days. From histopathological examination, we found that excessive Cu increased the amount of microglia and disintegrated neuron, decreased the number of Nissl bodies, perturbed nerve fibers in duck cerebrums. Cu poisoning also increased Cu, H2O2, T-SOD, and MDA levels, decreased Fe and CAT contents in duck cerebrums. Furthermore, Cu treatment upregulated the mRNA levels of the unfolded protein response genes (PERK, ATF6, and IRE1), ER-associated degradation genes (CNX, Derlin1, and Derlin2), autophagy genes (ATG5, ATG7, ATG10, Beclin1, LC3A, LC3B, and P62), and heat shock response genes (Hsp70 and Hsp90) in duck cerebrums; elevated the protein levels of p-PERK, CNX, SEL1L, Beclin1, P62, and LC3BII/LC3BI in duck cerebrums; increased the numbers of SEL1L and LC3B puncta in duck cerebrums. Thus, our data showed that excessive Cu could cause histopathological damage to duck cerebrums, disrupt the balance of the trace elements, induce oxidative stress and activation of ER quality control, thereby resulting in duck cerebrums damage.

Abstract
Unfolded protein response (UPR) maintains the endoplasmic reticulum (ER) homeostasis, survival, and physiological function of mammalian cells. However, how cells adapt to ER stress under physiological or disease settings remains largely unclear. Here by a genome-wide CRISPR screen, we identified that RBBP8, an endonuclease involved in DNA damage repair, is required for ATF4 activation under ER stress in vitro. RNA-seq analysis suggested that RBBP8 deletion led to impaired cell cycle progression, retarded proliferation, attenuated ATF4 activation, and reduced global protein synthesis under ER stress. Mouse tissue analysis revealed that RBBP8 was highly expressed in the liver, and its expression is responsive to ER stress by tunicamycin intraperitoneal injection. Hepatocytes with RBBP8 inhibition by adenovirus-mediated shRNA were resistant to tunicamycin (Tm)-induced liver damage, cell death, and ER stress response. To study the pathological role of RBBP8 in regulating ATF4 activity, we illustrated that both RBBP8 and ATF4 were highly expressed in liver cancer tissues compared with healthy controls and highly expressed in Ki67-positive proliferating cells within the tumors. Interestingly, overexpression of RBBP8 in vitro promoted ATF4 activation under ER stress, and RBBP8 expression showed a positive correlation with ATF4 expression in liver cancer tissues by co-immunostaining. Our findings provide new insights into the mechanism of how cells adapt to ER stress through the crosstalk between the nucleus and ER and how tumor cells survive under chemotherapy or other anticancer treatments, which suggests potential therapeutic strategies against liver disease by targeting DNA damage repair, UPR or protein synthesis.

Abstract
The growth of skeletal muscle relies on a delicate equilibrium between protein synthesis and degradation; however, how proteostasis is managed in the endoplasmic reticulum (ER) is largely unknown. Here, we report that the SEL1L-HRD1 ER-associated degradation (ERAD) complex, the primary molecular machinery that degrades misfolded proteins in the ER, is vital to maintain postnatal muscle growth and systemic energy balance. Myocyte-specific SEL1L deletion blunts the hypertrophic phase of muscle growth, resulting in a net zero gain of muscle mass during this developmental period and a 30% reduction in overall body growth. In addition, myocyte-specific SEL1L deletion triggered a systemic reprogramming of metabolism characterized by improved glucose sensitivity, enhanced beigeing of adipocytes, and resistance to diet-induced obesity. These effects were partially mediated by the upregulation of the myokine FGF21. These findings highlight the pivotal role of SEL1L-HRD1 ERAD activity in skeletal myocytes for postnatal muscle growth, and its physiological integration in maintaining whole-body energy balance.

Abstract
The SEL1L-HRD1 protein complex represents the most conserved branch of endoplasmic reticulum (ER)-associated degradation (ERAD); however, definitive evidence for the importance of SEL1L in HRD1 ERAD is lacking. Here we report that attenuation of the interaction between SEL1L and HRD1 impairs HRD1 ERAD function and has pathological consequences in mice. Our data show that SEL1L variant p.Ser658Pro ( SEL1L S 658 P ) previously identified in Finnish Hound suffering cerebellar ataxia is a recessive hypomorphic mutation, causing partial embryonic lethality, developmental delay, and early-onset cerebellar ataxia in homozygous mice carrying the bi-allelic variant. Mechanistically, SEL1L S 658 P variant attenuates the SEL1L-HRD1 interaction and causes HRD1 dysfunction by generating electrostatic repulsion between SEL1L F668 and HRD1 Y30 residues. Proteomic screens of SEL1L and HRD1 interactomes revealed that the SEL1L-HRD1 interaction is prerequisite for the formation of a functional HRD1 ERAD complex, as SEL1L recruits not only the lectins OS9 and ERLEC1, but the E2 UBE2J1 and retrotranslocon DERLIN, to HRD1. These data underscore the pathophysiological importance and disease relevance of the SEL1L-HRD1 complex, and identify a key step in organizing the HRD1 ERAD complex.

Abstract
Endoplasmic reticulum (ER)-associated degradation (ERAD) and ER-phagy are two principal degradative mechanisms for ER proteins and aggregates, respectively; however, the crosstalk between these two pathways under physiological settings remains unexplored. Using adipocytes as a model system, here we report that SEL1L-HRD1 protein complex of ERAD degrades misfolded ER proteins and limits ER-phagy and that, only when SEL1L-HRD1 ERAD is impaired, the ER becomes fragmented and cleared by ER-phagy. When both are compromised, ER fragments containing misfolded proteins spatially coalesce into a distinct architecture termed Coalescence of ER Fragments (CERFs), consisted of lipoprotein lipase (LPL, a key lipolytic enzyme and an endogenous SEL1L-HRD1 substrate) and certain ER chaperones. CERFs enlarge and become increasingly insoluble with age. Finally, we reconstitute the CERFs through LPL and BiP phase separation in vitro, a process influenced by both redox environment and C-terminal tryptophan loop of LPL. Hence, our findings demonstrate a sequence of events centered around SEL1L-HRD1 ERAD to dispose of misfolded proteins in the ER of adipocytes, highlighting the profound cellular adaptability to misfolded proteins in the ER in vivo.

Abstract
Endoplasmic reticulum-associated protein degradation (ERAD) is a stringent quality control mechanism through which misfolded, unassembled and some native proteins are targeted for degradation to maintain appropriate cellular and organelle homeostasis. Several in vitro and in vivo ERAD-related studies have provided mechanistic insights into ERAD pathway activation and its consequent events; however, a majority of these have investigated the effect of ERAD substrates and their consequent diseases affecting the degradation process. In this review, we present all reported human single-gene disorders caused by genetic variation in genes that encode ERAD components rather than their substrates. Additionally, after extensive literature survey, we present various genetically manipulated higher cellular and mammalian animal models that lack specific components involved in various stages of the ERAD pathway.

Abstract
Endoplasmic reticulum associated degradation (ERAD) is responsible for recognition and degradation of unfolded or misfolded proteins in the ER. Sel1L is essential for the ERAD activity of Sel1L-Hrd1 complex, the best-known ERAD machinery. Using a continuous Sel1L knockout mouse model (CNP/Cre; Sel1LloxP/loxP mice), our previous studies showed that Sel1L knockout in myelinating cells, oligodendrocytes in the central nervous system (CNS) and Schwann cells in the peripheral nervous system (PNS), leads to adult-onset myelin abnormalities in the CNS and PNS. Because Sel1L is deleted in myelinating cells of CNP/Cre; Sel1LloxP/loxP mice starting at very early stage of differentiation, it is impossible to rule out the possibility that the adult-onset myelin abnormalities in these mice results from developmental myelination defects caused by Sel1L knockout in myelinating cells during development. Thus, using an inducible Sel1L knockout mouse model (PLP/CreERT ; Sel1LloxP/loxP mice) that has normal, intact myelin and myelinating cells in the adult CNS and PNS prior to tamoxifen treatment, we sought to determine if Sel1L knockout in mature myelinating cells of adult mice leads to myelin abnormalities in the CNS and PNS. We showed that Sel1L knockout in mature myelinating cells caused ERAD impairment, ER stress and UPR activation. Interesting, Sel1L knockout in mature oligodendrocytes impaired their myelinating function by suppressing myelin protein translation, and resulted in progressive myelin thinning in the adult CNS. Conversely, Sel1L knockout in mature Schwann cells led to Schwann cell apoptosis and demyelination in the adult PNS. These findings demonstrate the essential roles of ERAD in mature myelinating cells in the adult CNS and PNS under physiological conditions.

Abstract
Stimulator of interferon genes (STING) orchestrates the production of proinflammatory cytokines in response to cytosolic double-stranded DNA; however, the pathophysiological significance and molecular mechanism underlying the folding and maturation of nascent STING protein at the endoplasmic reticulum (ER) remain unknown. Here we report that the SEL1L-HRD1 protein complex-the most conserved branch of ER-associated degradation (ERAD)-is a negative regulator of the STING innate immunity by ubiquitinating and targeting nascent STING protein for proteasomal degradation in the basal state. SEL1L or HRD1 deficiency in macrophages specifically amplifies STING signalling and immunity against viral infection and tumour growth. Mechanistically, nascent STING protein is a bona fide substrate of SEL1L-HRD1 in the basal state, uncoupled from ER stress or its sensor inositol-requiring enzyme 1α. Hence, our study not only establishes a key role of SEL1L-HRD1 ERAD in innate immunity by limiting the size of the activable STING pool, but identifies a regulatory mechanism and therapeutic approach to targeting STING.

Abstract
Excessive vanadium (V) contamination is an attracting growing concern, which can negatively affect the health of human and ecosystems. But how V causes nephrotoxicity and the role of mitochondria-associated endoplasmic reticulum membrane (MAM) in V-induced nephrotoxicity have remained elusive. To explore the detailed mechanism and screen of potential effective drugs for V-evoked nephrotoxicity, a total of 72 ducks were divided into two groups, control group and V group (30 mg/kg V). Results showed that excessive V damaged kidney function of ducks including causing histopathological abnormality, biochemical makers derangement and oxidative stress. Then MAM of duck kidneys was extracted to investigate differentially expressed proteins (DEPs) under V exposure using proteomics analysis. Around 4240 MAM-localized proteins were identified, of which 412 DEPs showed dramatic changes, including 335 upregulated and 77 downregulated DEPs. On the basis of gene ontology (GO), string and KEGG database analysis, excessive V led to nephrotoxicity primarily by affecting MAM-mediated metabolic pathways, especially elevating the endoplasmic Reticulum (ER) proteostasis related pathway. Further validation analysis of the detected genes and proteins of ER proteostasis related pathway under V poisoning revealed a consistent relationship with proteome analysis, indicating that V disrupted MAM-mediated ER proteostasis. Accordingly, our data proved the critical role for MAM in V-evoked nephrotoxicity, particularly with MAM-mediated ER proteostasis, providing promising insights into the toxicological exploration mechanisms of V.

Abstract
Misfolded endoplasmic reticulum proteins are degraded through a process called endoplasmic reticulum associated degradation (ERAD). Soluble, lumenal ERAD targets are recognized, retrotranslocated across the ER membrane, ubiquitinated, extracted from the membrane, and degraded by the proteasome using an ERAD pathway containing a ubiquitin ligase called Hrd1. To determine how Hrd1 mediates these processes, we developed a deep mutational scanning approach to identify residues involved in Hrd1 function, including those exclusively required for lumenal degradation. We identified several regions required for different Hrd1 functions. Most surprisingly, we found two cytosolic regions of Hrd1 required for lumenal ERAD substrate degradation. Using in vivo and in vitro approaches, we defined roles for disordered regions between structural elements that were required for Hrd1's ability to autoubiquitinate and interact with substrate. Our results demonstrate that disordered cytosolic regions promote substrate retrotranslocation by controlling Hrd1 activation and establishing directionality of retrotranslocation for lumenal substrate across the endoplasmic reticulum membrane.

Abstract
N6-methyladenosine (m6A) plays an important role in regulating many physiological and disease processes in vertebrates, in which methyltransferase-like 3 (METTL3) is the best-known m6A methyltransferase. However, the functional roles of invertebrate METTL3 have not yet been highlighted. In this study, we found that METTL3 from Apostichopus japonicus (AjMETTL3) was significantly induced in coelomocytes accompanied by higher levels of m6A modification in response to Vibrio splendidus challenge. Overexpression or silencing of AjMETTL3 in coelomocytes increased or decreased the m6A levels and promoted or inhibited V. splendidus-induced coelomocyte apoptosis, respectively. To further explore the molecular mechanism of AjMETTL3-mediated coelomic immunity, m6A-seq analysis revealed that the endoplasmic reticulum-related degradation (ERAD) pathway was significantly enriched, in which suppressor/enhancer of Lin-12-like (AjSEL1L) was suggested to be a target of AjMETTL3 in a negative regulatory manner. Functional analysis revealed that the increased AjMETTL3 reduced the stability of AjSEL1L mRNA by targeting the m6A modification site of 2004 bp-GGACA-2008 bp. The decreased AjSEL1L was further confirmed to be involved in AjMETTL3-mediated coelomocyte apoptosis. Mechanistically, the inhibited AjSEL1L increased the transcription of AjOS9 and Ajp97 in the EARD pathway to promote ubiquitin protein accumulation and ER stress, which further activated AjPERK-AjeIF2α pathway dependent coelomocyte apoptosis, but not the AjIRE1 or AjATF6 pathway. Taken together, our results supported invertebrate METTL3-mediated coelomocyte apoptosis by regulating the PERK-eIF2α pathway.

The two efficient intracellular systems, namely the ubiquitin-proteasome system and the autophagy-lysosome system, play important roles in dealing with cellular wastes. However, how multicellular organisms orchestrate the processing of obsolete molecules and delay aging remains unclear. Herein, it is shown that prevention of exosome release by GW4869 or Rab27a-/- accelerated senescence in various cells and mice, while stimulating exosome release by nutrient restriction delays aging. Interestingly, exosomes isolate from serum-deprived cells or diet-restricted human plasma, enriched with garbage biomolecules, including misfolded proteins, oxidized lipids, and proteins. These cellular wastes can be englobed by macrophages, eventually, for disintegration in vivo. Inhibition of nutrient-sensing mTORC1 signaling increases exosome release and delays senescence, while constitutive activation of mTORC1 reduces exosome secretion and exacerbates senescence in vitro and in mice. Notably, inhibition of exosome release attenuates nutrient restriction- or rapamycin-delayed senescence, supporting a key role for exosome secretion in this process. This study reveals a potential mechanism by which stimulated exosome release delays aging in multicellular organisms, by orchestrating the harmful biomolecules disposal via exosomes and macrophages.

Abstract
Iron homeostasis is critical for cellular and organismal function and is tightly regulated to prevent toxicity or anemia due to iron excess or deficiency, respectively. However, subcellular regulatory mechanisms of iron remain largely unexplored. Here, we report that SEL1L-HRD1 protein complex of endoplasmic reticulum (ER)-associated degradation (ERAD) in hepatocytes controls systemic iron homeostasis in a ceruloplasmin (CP)-dependent, and ER stress-independent, manner. Mice with hepatocyte-specific Sel1L deficiency exhibit altered basal iron homeostasis and are sensitized to iron deficiency while resistant to iron overload. Proteomics screening for a factor linking ERAD deficiency to altered iron homeostasis identifies CP, a key ferroxidase involved in systemic iron distribution by catalyzing iron oxidation and efflux from tissues. Indeed, CP is highly unstable and a bona fide substrate of SEL1L-HRD1 ERAD. In the absence of ERAD, CP protein accumulates in the ER and is shunted to refolding, leading to elevated secretion. Providing clinical relevance of these findings, SEL1L-HRD1 ERAD is responsible for the degradation of a subset of disease-causing CP mutants, thereby attenuating their pathogenicity. Together, this study uncovers the role of SEL1L-HRD1 ERAD in systemic iron homeostasis and provides insights into protein misfolding-associated proteotoxicity.

Abstract
Three principal ER quality-control mechanisms, namely, the unfolded protein response, ER-associated degradation (ERAD), and ER-phagy are each important for the maintenance of ER homeostasis, yet how they are integrated to regulate ER homeostasis and organellar architecture in vivo is largely unclear. Here we report intricate crosstalk among the 3 pathways, centered around the SEL1L-HRD1 protein complex of ERAD, in the regulation of organellar organization in β cells. SEL1L-HRD1 ERAD deficiency in β cells triggers activation of autophagy, at least in part, via IRE1α (an endogenous ERAD substrate). In the absence of functional SEL1L-HRD1 ERAD, proinsulin is retained in the ER as high molecular weight conformers, which are subsequently cleared via ER-phagy. A combined loss of both SEL1L and autophagy in β cells leads to diabetes in mice shortly after weaning, with premature death by approximately 11 weeks of age, associated with marked ER retention of proinsulin and β cell loss. Using focused ion beam scanning electron microscopy powered by deep-learning automated image segmentation and 3D reconstruction, our data demonstrate a profound organellar restructuring with a massive expansion of ER volume and network in β cells lacking both SEL1L and autophagy. These data reveal at an unprecedented detail the intimate crosstalk among the 3 ER quality-control mechanisms in the dynamic regulation of organellar architecture and β cell function.

Abstract
Endoplasmic reticulum (ER) is the largest membrane-bound compartment in all cells and functions as a key regulator in protein biosynthesis, lipid metabolism, and calcium balance. Mammalian endoplasmic reticulum has evolved with an orchestrated protein quality control system to handle defective proteins and ensure endoplasmic reticulum homeostasis. Nevertheless, the accumulation and aggregation of misfolded proteins in the endoplasmic reticulum may occur during pathological conditions. The inability of endoplasmic reticulum quality control system to clear faulty proteins and aggregates from the endoplasmic reticulum results in the development of many human disorders. The efforts to comprehensively understand endoplasmic reticulum quality control network and protein aggregation will benefit the diagnostics and therapeutics of endoplasmic reticulum storage diseases. Herein, we overview recent advances in mammalian endoplasmic reticulum protein quality control system, describe protein phase transition model, and summarize the approaches to monitor protein aggregation. Moreover, we discuss the therapeutic applications of enhancing endoplasmic reticulum protein quality control pathways in endoplasmic reticulum storage diseases.

Abstract
Dysregulated production of peptide hormones is the key pathogenic factor of various endocrine diseases. Endoplasmic reticulum (ER) associated degradation (ERAD) is a critical machinery in maintaining ER proteostasis in mammalian cells by degrading misfolded proteins. Dysfunction of ERAD leads to maturation defect of many peptide hormones, such as provasopressin (proAVP), which results in the occurrence of Central Diabetes Insipidus. However, drugs targeting ERAD to regulate the production of peptide hormones are very limited. Herbal products provide not only nutritional sources, but also alternative therapeutics for chronic diseases. Virtual screening provides an effective and high-throughput strategy for identifying protein structure-based interacting compounds extracted from a variety of dietary or herbal sources, which could be served as (pro)drugs for preventing or treating endocrine diseases. Here, we performed a virtual screening by directly targeting SEL1L of the most conserved SEL1L-HRD1 ERAD machinery. Further, we analyzed 58 top-ranked compounds and demonstrated that Cryptochlorogenic acid (CCA) showed strong affinity with the binding pocket of SEL1L with HRD1. Through structure-based docking, protein expression assays, and FACS analysis, we revealed that CCA enhanced ERAD activity and promoted the degradation of misfolded proAVP, thus facilitated the secretion of well-folded proAVP. These results provide us with insights into drug discovery strategies targeting ER protein homeostasis, as well as candidate compounds for treating hormone-related diseases.

Abstract
Controversy surrounds the cellular role of the Bcl-2 family protein Bok. On one hand, it has been shown that all endogenous Bok is bound to inositol 1,4,5-trisphosphate receptors (IP3Rs), while other data suggest that Bok can act as a pro-apoptotic mitochondrial outer membrane permeabilization mediator, apparently kept at very low and non-apoptotic levels by efficient proteasome-mediated degradation. Here we show that 1) endogenous Bok is expressed at readily-detectable levels in key cultured cells (e.g., mouse embryonic fibroblasts and HCT116 cells) and is not constitutively degraded by the proteasome, 2) proteasome inhibitor-induced apoptosis is not mediated by Bok, 3) endogenous Bok expression level is critically dependent on the presence of IP3Rs, 4) endogenous Bok is rapidly degraded by the ubiquitin-proteasome pathway in the absence of IP3Rs at the endoplasmic reticulum membrane, and 5) charged residues in the transmembrane region of Bok affect its stability, ability to interact with Mcl-1, and pro-apoptotic activity when over-expressed. Overall, these data indicate that endogenous Bok levels are not governed by proteasomal activity (except when IP3Rs are deleted) and that while endogenous Bok plays little or no role in apoptotic signaling, exogenous Bok can mediate apoptosis in a manner dependent on its transmembrane domain.

Abstract
Endoplasmic reticulum (ER) homeostasis has been implicated in the pathogenesis of various forms of cancer; however, our understanding of the role of ER quality control mechanisms in tumorigenesis remains incomplete. Here, we show that the SEL1L-HRD1 complex of ER-associated degradation (ERAD) suppresses hepatocyte proliferation and tumorigenesis in mice. Hepatocyte-specific deletion of Sel1L or Hrd1 predisposed mice to diet/chemical-induced tumors. Proteomics screen from SEL1L-deficient livers revealed WNT5A, a tumor suppressor, as an ERAD substrate. Indeed, nascent WNT5A was misfolding prone and degraded by SEL1L-HRD1 ERAD in a quality control capacity. In the absence of ERAD, WNT5A misfolds is largely retained in the ER and forms high-molecular weight aggregates, thereby depicting a loss-of-function effect and attenuating WNT5A-mediated suppression of hepatocyte proliferation. In humans, SEL1L-HRD1 ERAD expression correlated positively with survival time for patients with liver cancer. Overall, our data reveal a key role of SEL1L-HRD1 ERAD in suppressing hepatocyte proliferation and liver cancer.

Viruses Hijack ERAD to Regulate Their Replication and Propagation. Int J Mol Sci 2022; 23:ijms23169398.

Abstract
Endoplasmic reticulum-associated degradation (ERAD) is highly conserved in yeast. Recent studies have shown that ERAD is also ubiquitous and highly conserved in eukaryotic cells, where it plays an essential role in maintaining endoplasmic reticulum (ER) homeostasis. Misfolded or unfolded proteins undergo ERAD. They are recognized in the ER, retrotranslocated into the cytoplasm, and degraded by proteasomes after polyubiquitin. This may consist of several main steps: recognition of ERAD substrates, retrotranslocation, and proteasome degradation. Replication and transmission of the virus in the host is a process of a “game” with the host. It can be assumed that the virus has evolved various mechanisms to use the host’s functions for its replication and transmission, including ERAD. However, until now, it is still unclear how the host uses ERAD to deal with virus infection and how the viruses hijack the function of ERAD to obtain a favorable niche or evade the immune clearance of the host. Recent studies have shown that viruses have also evolved mechanisms to use various processes of ERAD to promote their transmission. This review describes the occurrence of ERAD and how the viruses hijack the function of ERAD to spread by affecting the homeostasis and immune response of the host, and we will focus on the role of E3 ubiquitin ligase.

Abstract
The high-affinity copper transporter CTR1 is encoded by CTR1 (SLC31A1), a gene locus for which no detailed genotype-phenotype correlations have previously been reported. We describe identical twin male infants homozygous for a novel missense variant NM_001859.4:c.284 G > A (p.Arg95His) in CTR1 with a distinctive autosomal recessive syndrome of infantile seizures and neurodegeneration, consistent with profound central nervous system copper deficiency. We used clinical, biochemical and molecular methods to delineate the first recognized examples of human CTR1 deficiency. These included clinical phenotyping, brain imaging, assays for copper, cytochrome c oxidase (CCO), and mitochondrial respiration, western blotting, cell transfection experiments, confocal and electron microscopy, protein structure modeling and fetal brain and cerebral organoid CTR1 transcriptome analyses. Comparison with two other critical mediators of cellular copper homeostasis, ATP7A and ATP7B, genes associated with Menkes disease and Wilson disease, respectively, revealed that expression of CTR1 was highest. Transcriptome analyses identified excitatory neurons and radial glia as brain cell types particularly enriched for copper transporter transcripts. We also assessed the effects of Copper Histidinate in the patients' cultured cells and in the patients, under a formal clinical protocol. Treatment normalized CCO activity and enhanced mitochondrial respiration in vitro, and was associated with modest clinical improvements. In combination with present and prior studies, these infants' clinical, biochemical and molecular phenotypes establish the impact of this novel variant on copper metabolism and cellular homeostasis and illuminate a crucial role for CTR1 in human brain development. CTR1 deficiency represents a newly defined inherited disorder of brain copper metabolism.

The repositioned drugs disulfiram/diethyldithiocarbamate combined to benznidazole: Searching for Chagas disease selective therapy, preventing toxicity and drug resistance. Front Cell Infect Microbiol 2022; 12:926699. [PMID: 35967878 PMCID: PMC9372510 DOI: 10.3389/fcimb.2022.926699] [Citation(s) in RCA: 1] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 04/22/2022] [Accepted: 06/27/2022] [Indexed: 12/20/2022] Open
Abstract
Chagas disease (CD) affects at least 6 million people in 21 South American countries besides several thousand in other nations all over the world. It is estimated that at least 14,000 people die every year of CD. Since vaccines are not available, chemotherapy remains of pivotal relevance. About 30% of the treated patients cannot complete the therapy because of severe adverse reactions. Thus, the search for novel drugs is required. Here we tested the benznidazole (BZ) combination with the repositioned drug disulfiram (DSF) and its derivative diethyldithiocarbamate (DETC) upon Trypanosoma cruzi in vitro and in vivo. DETC-BZ combination was synergistic diminishing epimastigote proliferation and enhancing selective indexes up to over 10-fold. DETC was effective upon amastigotes of the BZ- partially resistant Y and the BZ-resistant Colombiana strains. The combination reduced proliferation even using low concentrations (e.g., 2.5 µM). Scanning electron microscopy revealed membrane discontinuities and cell body volume reduction. Transmission electron microscopy revealed remarkable enlargement of endoplasmic reticulum cisternae besides, dilated mitochondria with decreased electron density and disorganized kinetoplast DNA. At advanced stages, the cytoplasm vacuolation apparently impaired compartmentation. The fluorescent probe H2-DCFDA indicates the increased production of reactive oxygen species associated with enhanced lipid peroxidation in parasites incubated with DETC. The biochemical measurement indicates the downmodulation of thiol expression. DETC inhibited superoxide dismutase activity on parasites was more pronounced than in infected mice. In order to approach the DETC effects on intracellular infection, peritoneal macrophages were infected with Colombiana trypomastigotes. DETC addition diminished parasite numbers and the DETC-BZ combination was effective, despite the low concentrations used. In the murine infection, the combination significantly enhanced animal survival, decreasing parasitemia over BZ. Histopathology revealed that low doses of BZ-treated animals presented myocardial amastigote, not observed in combination-treated animals. The picrosirius collagen staining showed reduced myocardial fibrosis. Aminotransferase de aspartate, Aminotransferase de alanine, Creatine kinase, and urea plasma levels demonstrated that the combination was non-toxic. As DSF and DETC can reduce the toxicity of other drugs and resistance phenotypes, such a combination may be safe and effective.

Abstract
In tumor cells, the endoplasmic reticulum (ER) plays an essential role in maintaining cellular proteostasis by stimulating unfolded protein response (UPR) underlying stress conditions. ER-associated degradation (ERAD) is a critical pathway of the UPR to protect cells from ER stress-induced apoptosis and the elimination of unfolded or misfolded proteins by the ubiquitin-proteasome system (UPS). 3-Hydroxy-3-methylglutaryl reductase degradation (HRD1) as an E3 ubiquitin ligase plays an essential role in the ubiquitination and dislocation of misfolded protein in ERAD. In addition, HRD1 can target other normal folded proteins. In various types of cancer, the expression of HRD1 is dysregulated, and it targets different molecules to develop cancer hallmarks or suppress the progression of the disease. Recent investigations have defined the role of HRD1 in drug resistance in types of cancer. This review focuses on the molecular mechanisms of HRD1 and its roles in cancer pathogenesis and discusses the worthiness of targeting HRD1 as a novel therapeutic strategy in cancer.

Abstract
Mammalian cell factories (in particular the CHO cell system) have been crucial in the rise of biopharmaceuticals. Mammalian cells have compartmentalized organelles where intricate networks of proteins manufacture highly sophisticated biopharmaceuticals in a specialized production pipeline - the secretory pathway. In the bioproduction context, the secretory pathway functioning is key for the effectiveness of cell factories to manufacture these life-changing medicines. This review describes the molecular components and events involved in the secretory pathway, and provides a comprehensive summary of the intracellular steps limiting the production of therapeutic proteins as well as the achievements in engineering CHO cell secretory machinery. We also consider antibody-producing plasma cells (so called "professional" secretory cells) to explore the mechanisms underpinning their unique secretory function/features. Such understandings offer the potential to further enhancement of the current CHO cell production platforms for manufacturing next generation of biopharmaceuticals.

MicroRNA-101 Regulates 6-Hydroxydopamine-Induced Cell Death by Targeting Suppressor/Enhancer Lin-12-Like in SH-SY5Y Cells. Front Mol Neurosci 2021; 14:748026.

Abstract
Endoplasmic reticulum (ER) stress has been reported as a cause of Parkinson’s disease (PD). We have previously reported that the ubiquitin ligase HMG-CoA reductase degradation 1 (HRD1) and its stabilizing factor suppressor/enhancer lin-12-like (SEL1L) participate in the ER stress. In addition, we recently demonstrated that neuronal cell death is enhanced in the cellular PD model when SEL1L expression is suppressed compared with cell death when HRD1 expression is suppressed. This finding suggests that SEL1L is a critical key molecule in the strategy for PD therapy. Thus, investigation into whether microRNAs (miRNAs) regulate SEL1L expression in neurons should be interesting because relationships between miRNAs and the development of neurological diseases such as PD have been reported in recent years. In this study, using miRNA databases and previous reports, we searched for miRNAs that could regulate SEL1L expression and examined the effects of this regulation on cell death in PD models created by 6-hydroxydopamine (6-OHDA). Five miRNAs were identified as candidate miRNAs that could modulate SEL1L expression. Next, SH-SY5Y cells were exposed to 6-OHDA, following which miR-101 expression was found to be inversely correlated with SEL1L expression. Therefore, we selected miR-101 as a candidate miRNA for SEL1L modulation. We confirmed that miR-101 directly targets the SEL1L 3′ untranslated region, and an miR-101 mimic suppressed the 6-OHDA–induced increase in SEL1L expression and enhanced cell death. Furthermore, an miR-101 inhibitor suppressed this response. These results suggest that miR-101 regulates SEL1L expression and may serve as a new target for PD therapy.

Abstract
The endoplasmic reticulum quality control (ERQC) system, including endoplasmic reticulum-associated degradation (ERAD), the unfolded protein response (UPR), and autophagy, presides over cellular protein secretion and maintains proteostasis in mammalian cells. As part of the immune system, a variety of proteins are synthesized and assembled correctly for the development, activation, and differentiation of immune cells, such as dendritic cells (DCs), macrophages, myeloid-derived-suppressor cells (MDSCs), B lymphocytes, T lymphocytes, and natural killer (NK) cells. In this review, we emphasize the role of the ERQC in these immune cells, and also discuss how the imbalance of ER homeostasis affects the immune response, thereby suggesting new therapeutic targets for immunotherapy.
