Myeloid SENP3 deficiency protects mice from diet and age-induced obesity via regulation of YAP1 SUMOylation. Cell Mol Life Sci 2023; 81:4. [PMID: 38070059 PMCID: PMC10710392 DOI: 10.1007/s00018-023-05050-w] [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: 08/31/2023] [Revised: 11/08/2023] [Accepted: 11/10/2023] [Indexed: 12/18/2023]
Abstract
Obesity is characterized by chronic low-grade inflammation, which is driven by macrophage infiltration in adipose tissue and leads to elevated cytokines such as interleukin-1β (IL-1β) in the circulation and tissues. Previous studies demonstrate that SENP3, a redox-sensitive SUMO2/3-specific protease, is strongly implicated in the development and progression of cancer and cardiovascular diseases. However, the role of SENP3 in obesity-associated inflammation remains largely unknown. To better understand the effects of SENP3 on adipose tissue macrophage (ATM) activation and function within the context of obesity, we generated mice with myeloid-specific deletion of SENP3 (Senp3flox/flox;Lyz2-Cre mice). We found that the expression of SENP3 is dramatically increased in ATMs during high-fat diet (HFD)-induced obesity in mice. Senp3flox/flox;Lyz2-Cre mice show lower body weight gain and reduced adiposity and adipocyte size after challenged with HFD and during aging. Myeloid-specific SENP3 deletion attenuates macrophage infiltration in adipose tissue and reduces serum levels of inflammatory factors during diet and age-induced obesity. Furthermore, we found that SENP3 knockout markedly inhibits cytokine release from macrophage after lipopolysaccharide and palmitic acid treatment in vitro. Mechanistically, in cultured peritoneal macrophages, SENP3 protein level is enhanced by IL-1β, in parallel with the upregulation of Yes-associated protein 1 (YAP1). Moreover, we demonstrated that SENP3 modulates de-SUMO modification of YAP1 and SENP3 deletion abolishes the upregulation of YAP1 induced by IL-1β. Most importantly, SENP3 deficiency reduces YAP1 protein level in adipose tissue during obesity. Our results highlight the important role of SENP3 in ATM inflammation and diet and age-induced obesity.

SENP3-mediated deSUMOylation of c-Jun facilitates microglia-induced neuroinflammation after cerebral ischemia and reperfusion injury. iScience 2023; 26:106953.

Abstract
Recent evidences have implicated that SENP3 is a deSUMOylase which possesses neuronal damage effects in cerebral ischemia. However, its role in microglia remains poorly understood. Here, we found that SENP3 was upregulated in the peri-infarct areas of mice following ischemic stroke. Furthermore, knockdown of SENP3 significantly inhibits the expression of proinflammatory cytokines and chemokines in microglial cells. Mechanistically, SENP3 can bind and then mediated the deSUMOylation of c-Jun, which activated its transcriptional activity, ultimately followed by the activation of MAPK/AP-1 signaling pathway. In addition, microglia-specific SENP3 knockdown alleviated ischemia-induced neuronal damage, and markedly diminished infract volume, ameliorated sensorimotor and cognitive function in animals subjected to ischemic stroke. These results indicated SENP3 functions as a novel regulator of microglia-induced neuroinflammation by activating the MAPK/AP-1 signaling pathway via mediating the deSUMOylation of c-Jun. Interventions of SENP3 expression or its interaction with c-Jun would be a new and promising therapeutic strategy for ischemic stroke.

[PMID: 37180935 PMCID: PMC10172869 DOI: 10.1016/j.heliyon.2023.e15584] [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: 09/14/2022] [Revised: 04/02/2023] [Accepted: 04/14/2023] [Indexed: 05/16/2023] Open
Abstract
Macrophages preferentially polarize to the anti-inflammatory M2 subtype in response to alterations in the wound microenvironment. SUMO-specific protease 3 (SENP3), a SUMO-specific protease, has been proven to regulate inflammation in macrophages by deSUMOylating substrate proteins, but its contribution to wound healing is poorly defined. Here, we report that SENP3 deletion promotes M2 macrophage polarization and accelerates wound healing in macrophage-specific SENP3 knockout mice. Notably, it affects wound healing through the suppression of inflammation and promotion of angiogenesis and collagen remodeling. Mechanistically, we identified that SENP3 knockout facilitates M2 polarization through the Smad6/IκB/p65 signaling pathway. SENP3 knockout elevated the expression of Smad6 and IκB. Moreover, Smad6 silencing enhanced the expression of p-p65 and proinflammatory cytokines while inhibiting the level of IκB. Our study revealed the essential role of SENP3 in M2 polarization and wound healing, which offers a theoretical basis for further research and a therapeutic strategy for wound healing.

Paeoniflorin Inhibits ASK1-TF Axis by Up-Regulating SOCS3 to Alleviate Radiation Enteritis. Front Pharmacol 2022; 13:743708.

Abstract
Radiation enteritis is one of the main adverse effects of radiotherapy, presenting with a poorly understood etiology and limited options for therapy. Intestinal inflammation and ischemia are the core mechanisms of radiation enteritis. Suppressor of cytokine signaling 3 (SOCS3) is an endogenous “inflammation brake.” We hypothesized that paeoniflorin, a pinane monoterpene bitter glycoside, could increase SOCS3 expression to reduce inflammation and ischemia and improve enteritis in mice. Laser Doppler flowmetry was used to detect changes in intestinal blood flow. RAW264.7 and human umbilical vein endothelial cells were used to investigate the mechanism of action of paeoniflorin. It was observed that radiation caused high mortality, intestinal inflammatory responses, and low blood flow in mice. Paeoniflorin effectively alleviated intestinal atrophy, prevented thrombosis, improved radiation enteritis, and reduced mortality in mice undergoing radiotherapy. In addition, paeoniflorin increased the release of growth arrest-specific gene 6 (Gas6) and phosphorylation of the Axl receptor, subsequently inducing the expression of SOCS3 and inhibiting the expression of p-apoptosis signal-regulating kinase 1 and tissue factor in vivo and in vitro. Based on our findings, we suggest that paeoniflorin is potentially effective in alleviating radiation enteritis via the activation of the Gas6/Axl/SOCS3 axis and subsequent reduction in intestinal inflammation and ischemia.

Lidocaine Alleviates Sepsis-Induced Acute Lung Injury in Mice by Suppressing Tissue Factor and Matrix Metalloproteinase-2/9. OXIDATIVE MEDICINE AND CELLULAR LONGEVITY 2021; 2021:3827501.

Abstract
Acute lung injury (ALI) is one of the fatal symptoms of sepsis. However, there were no effective clinical treatments. TF accumulation-induced fibrin deposit formations and coagulation abnormalities in pulmonary vessels contribute to the lethality of ALI. Suppressor of cytokine signaling 3 (SOCS3) acts as an endogenous negative regulator of the TLR4/TF pathway. We hypothesized that inducing SOCS3 expression using lidocaine to suppress the TLR4/TF pathway may alleviate ALI. Hematoxylin and eosin (H&E), B-mode ultrasound, and flow cytometry were used to measure the pathological damage of mice. Gelatin zymography was used to measure matrix metalloproteinase-2/9 (MMP-2/9) activities. Western blot was used to assay the expression of protein levels. Here, we show that lidocaine could increase the survival rate of ALI mice and ameliorate the lung injury of ALI mice including reducing the edema, neutrophil infiltration, and pulmonary thrombosis formation and increasing blood flow velocity. Moreover, in vitro and in vivo, lidocaine could increase the expression of p-AMPK and SOCS3 and subsequently decrease the expression of p-ASK1, p-p38, TF, and the activity of MMP-2/9. Taken together, our study demonstrated that lidocaine could inhibit the TLR4/ASK1/TF pathway to alleviate ALI via activating AMPK-SOCS3 axis.

Abstract
Lung endothelial cell dysfunction plays a central role in septic-induced lung injury. We hypothesized that endothelial cell subsets, capillary endothelial cells (capEC) and post capillary venules (PCV), might play different roles in regulating important pathophysiology in sepsis. In order to reveal global transcriptomic changes in endothelial cell subsets during sepsis, we induced sepsis in C57BL/6 mice by cecal ligation and puncture (CLP). We confirmed that CLP induced systemic and lung inflammation in our model. Endothelial cells (ECs) from lung capillary and PCV were isolated by cell sorting and transcriptomic changes were analyzed by bioinformatic tools. Our analysis revealed that lung capEC are transcriptionally different than PCV. Comparison of top differentially expressed genes (DEGs) of capEC and PCV revealed that capEC responses are different than PCV during sepsis. It was found that capEC are more enriched with genes related to regulation of coagulation, vascular permeability, wound healing and lipid metabolic processes after sepsis. In contrast, PCV are more enriched with genes related to chemotaxis, cell–cell adhesion by integrins, chemokine biosynthesis, regulation of actin filament process and neutrophil homeostasis after sepsis. In addition, we predicted some transcription factor targets that regulate a significant number of DEGs in sepsis. We proposed that targeting certain DEGs or transcriptional factors would be useful in protecting against sepsis-induced lung damage.

Abstract
Tumor‐associated macrophages (TAM) play a crucial role in promoting cancer progression. Upon cytokine stimulation, TAM preferentially polarize to the anti‐inflammatory and pro‐tumor M2 subtype. The mechanism underlying such preferential polarization remains elusive. Here, we report that macrophage‐specific deletion of the SUMO‐specific protease Sentrin/SUMO‐specific protease 3 promotes macrophage polarization towards M2 in bone marrow‐derived macrophage (BMDM) induced by interleukin 4 (IL‐4)/IL‐13 and in an ex vivo model (murine Py8119 cell line), as well as in a mouse orthotopic tumor model. Notably, Sentrin/SUMO‐specific protease 3 (SENP3) loss in macrophages accelerated breast cancer malignancy in ex vivo and in vivo models. Mechanistically, we identified Akt Serine/threonine kinase 1 (Akt1) as the substrate of SENP3 and found that the enhanced Akt1 SUMOylation upon SENP3 loss resulted in Akt1 hyper‐phosphorylation and activation, which facilitates M2 polarization. Analysis of clinical data showed that a lower level of SENP3 in TAM has a strong negative correlation with the level of the M2 marker CD206, as well as with a worse clinical outcome. Thus, increased Akt1 SUMOylation as a result of SENP3 deficiency modulates polarization of macrophages to the M2 subtype within a breast cancer microenvironment, which in turn promotes tumor progression.

Abstract
Among the pathways and mediators that may be dysregulated in COVID-19 infection, there are proinflammatory cytokines, lymphocyte apoptosis, and the coagulation cascade. Venous and arterial thromboembolisms also are frequent in COVID-19 patients with the increased risk of some life-threatening complications such as pulmonary embolism, myocardial infarction, and ischemic stroke. In this regard, overproduction of proinflammatory cytokines such as IL-6, IL-1β, and TNF-α induce cytokine storms, increase the risk of clot formation, platelet activation, and multiorgan failure that may eventually lead to death among these patients. Surface S protein of SARS-CoV-2 binds to its target transmembrane receptor, named as angiotensin converting enzyme 2 (ACE2(, on various cells such as lymphocyte, alveolar cells, monocytes/macrophages, and platelets. Notably, the activation of the coagulation cascade occurs through tissue factor (TF)/FVIIa-initiated hemostasis. Accordingly, TF plays the major role in the activation of coagulation system during viral infection. In viral infections, the related coagulopathy multiple factors such as inflammatory cytokines and viral specific TLRs are involved, which consequently induce TF expression aberrantly. SARS-COV-2 may directly infect monocytes/ macrophages. In addition, TF expression/release from these cells may play a critical role in the development of COVID-19 coagulopathy. In this regard, the use of TF- VIIa complex inhibitor may reduce the cytokine storm and mortality among COVID-19 patients.

Abstract
Post-translational modification by SUMO (small ubiquitin-like modifier) proteins has been shown to regulate a variety of functions of proteins, including protein stability, chromatin organization, transcription, DNA repair, subcellular localization, protein–protein interactions, and protein homeostasis. SENP (sentrin/SUMO-specific protease) regulates precursor processing and deconjugation of SUMO to control cellular mechanisms. SENP3, which is one of the SENP family members, deconjugates target proteins to alter protein modification. The effect of modification via SUMO and SENP3 is crucial to maintain the balance of SUMOylation and guarantee normal protein function and cellular activities. SENP3 acts as an oxidative stress-responsive molecule under physiological conditions. Under pathological conditions, if the SUMOylation process of proteins is affected by variations in SENP3 levels, it will cause a cellular reaction and ultimately lead to abnormal cellular activities and the occurrence and development of human diseases, including cardiovascular diseases, neurological diseases, and various cancers. In this review, we summarized the most recent advances concerning the critical roles of SENP3 in normal physiological and pathological conditions as well as the potential clinical implications in various diseases. Targeting SENP3 alone or in combination with current therapies might provide powerful targeted therapeutic strategies for the treatment of these diseases.

Abstract
In December 2019, a new and highly contagious infectious disease emerged in Wuhan, China. The etiologic agent was identified as a novel coronavirus, now known as Severe Acute Syndrome Coronavirus-2 (SARS-CoV-2). Recent research has revealed that virus entry takes place upon the union of the virus S surface protein with the type I transmembrane metallo-carboxypeptidase, angiotensin converting enzyme 2 (ACE-2) identified on epithelial cells of the host respiratory tract. Virus triggers the synthesis and release of pro-inflammatory cytokines, including IL-6 and TNF-α and also promotes downregulation of ACE-2, which promotes a concomitant increase in levels of angiotensin II (AT-II). Both TNF-α and AT-II have been implicated in promoting overexpression of tissue factor (TF) in platelets and macrophages. Additionally, the generation of antiphospholipid antibodies associated with COVID-19 may also promote an increase in TF. TF may be a critical mediator associated with the development of thrombotic phenomena in COVID-19, and should be a target for future study.

Abstract
The mechanisms underlying coagulation abnormalities in sepsis and septic acute lung injury remain unclear. Tissue factor (TF) initiates coagulation; its production can be regulated by reactive oxygen species (ROS); and monocytes/macrophages produce pathological TF during sepsis. The SUMO2/3 protease SENP3 is redox‐sensitive, and SENP3 accumulation in lipopolysaccharide (LPS)‐activated macrophages is ROS‐dependent. To explore whether SENP3 contributes to LPS‐activated coagulation, we used mice with Senp3 conditional knockout (cKO) in myeloid cells. In the model of LPS‐induced sepsis, SENP3 cKO mice exhibited less severe acute lung injury than SENP3 fl/fl mice. SENP3 cKO mice exhibited decreased TF expression in monocytes and alveolar macrophages, with consequently compromised coagulation in their blood and lungs. In vitro results showed that ROS‐induced SENP3 accumulation contributed to LPS‐induced TF expression, which was reduced by JNK inhibitor SP600125. Furthermore, mice injected with LPS following SP600125 (75 mg/kg) treatment showed decreased monocytes/macrophages TF production and alleviated coagulation activation, with less severe lung injury and higher survival rates. Collectively, the results suggest that SENP3 mediates LPS‐induced coagulation activation by up‐regulating monocyte/macrophage TF production in a JNK‐dependent manner. This work provides new insights into ROS regulation of LPS‐activated coagulation and reveals a link between SUMOylation and coagulation.
