Abstract
CRK adaptor proteins are important for signal transduction mechanisms driving cell proliferation and positioning during vertebrate central nervous system development. Zebrafish lacking both CRK family members exhibit small, disorganized retinas with 50% penetrance. The goal of this study was to determine whether another adaptor protein might functionally compensate for the loss of CRK adaptors. Expression patterns in developing zebrafish, and bioinformatic analyses of the motifs recognized by their SH2 and SH3 domains, suggest NCK adaptors are well-positioned to compensate for loss of CRK adaptors. In support of this hypothesis, proteomic analyses found CRK and NCK adaptors share overlapping interacting partners including known regulators of cell adhesion and migration, suggesting their functional intersection in neurodevelopment.

NCK1 Modulates Neuronal Actin Dynamics and Promotes Dendritic Spine, Synapse, and Memory Formation. J Neurosci 2023; 43:885-901. [PMID: 36535770 PMCID: PMC9908320 DOI: 10.1523/jneurosci.0495-21.2022] [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: 03/08/2021] [Revised: 12/05/2022] [Accepted: 12/10/2022] [Indexed: 12/23/2022] Open
Abstract
Memory formation and maintenance is a dynamic process involving the modulation of the actin cytoskeleton at synapses. Understanding the signaling pathways that contribute to actin modulation is important for our understanding of synapse formation and function, as well as learning and memory. Here, we focused on the importance of the actin regulator, noncatalytic region of tyrosine kinase adaptor protein 1 (NCK1), in hippocampal dependent behaviors and development. We report that male mice lacking NCK1 have impairments in both short-term and working memory, as well as spatial learning. Additionally, we report sex differences in memory impairment showing that female mice deficient in NCK1 fail at reversal learning in a spatial learning task. We find that NCK1 is expressed in postmitotic neurons but is dispensable for neuronal proliferation and migration in the developing hippocampus. Morphologically, NCK1 is not necessary for overall neuronal dendrite development. However, neurons lacking NCK1 have lower dendritic spine and synapse densities in vitro and in vivo EM analysis reveal increased postsynaptic density (PSD) thickness in the hippocampal CA1 region of NCK1-deficient mice. Mechanistically, we find the turnover of actin-filaments in dendritic spines is accelerated in neurons that lack NCK1. Together, these findings suggest that NCK1 contributes to hippocampal-dependent memory by stabilizing actin dynamics and dendritic spine formation.SIGNIFICANCE STATEMENT Understanding the molecular signaling pathways that contribute to memory formation, maintenance, and elimination will lead to a better understanding of the genetic influences on cognition and cognitive disorders and will direct future therapeutics. Here, we report that the noncatalytic region of tyrosine kinase adaptor protein 1 (NCK1) adaptor protein modulates actin-filament turnover in hippocampal dendritic spines. Mice lacking NCK1 show sex-dependent deficits in hippocampal memory formation tasks, have altered postsynaptic densities, and reduced synaptic density. Together, our work implicates NCK1 in the regulation of actin cytoskeleton dynamics and normal synapse development which is essential for memory formation.

Abstract
The non-catalytic region of tyrosine kinase (Nck) family of adaptors, consisting of Nck1 and Nck2, contributes to selectivity and specificity in the flow of cellular information by recruiting components of signaling networks. Known to play key roles in cytoskeletal remodeling, Nck adaptors modulate host cell-pathogen interactions, immune cell receptor activation, cell adhesion and motility, and intercellular junctions in kidney podocytes. Genetic inactivation of both members of the Nck family results in embryonic lethality; however, viability of mice lacking either one of these adaptors suggests partial functional redundancy. In this Cell Science at a Glance and the accompanying poster, we highlight the molecular organization and functions of the Nck family, focusing on key interactions and pathways, regulation of cellular processes, development, homeostasis and pathogenesis, as well as emerging and non-redundant functions of Nck1 compared to those of Nck2. This article thus aims to provide a timely perspective on the biology of Nck adaptors and their potential as therapeutic targets.

Abstract
The Nck family of modular adaptor proteins, including Nck1 and Nck2, link phosphotyrosine signaling to changes in cytoskeletal dynamics and gene expression that critically modulate cellular phenotype. The Nck SH2 domain interacts with phosphotyrosine at dynamic signaling hubs, such as activated growth factor receptors and sites of cell adhesion. The Nck SH3 domains interact with signaling effectors containing proline-rich regions that mediate their activation by upstream kinases. In vascular biology, Nck1 and Nck2 play redundant roles in vascular development and postnatal angiogenesis. However, recent studies suggest that Nck1 and Nck2 differentially regulate cell phenotype in the adult vasculature. Domain-specific interactions likely mediate these isoform-selective effects, and these isolated domains may serve as therapeutic targets to limit specific protein-protein interactions. In this review, we highlight the function of the Nck adaptor proteins, the known differences in domain-selective interactions, and discuss the role of individual Nck isoforms in vascular remodeling and function.

Abstract
Lung squamous cell carcinoma (LUSC) is a prevalent subtype of nonsmall cell lung cancer (NSCLC). Dysregulated long noncoding RNAs (lncRNAs) are increasingly identified as pivotal modulators in cancer progression. NCK1 divergent transcript (NCK1-AS1) is a lncRNA that has been proven to be oncogenic in different types of human cancers. However, whether it exerts similar functions in LUSC remains to be elusive. The present study focused on investigating the influence of NCK1-AS1 on the cellular process in LUSC and exploring its underlying mechanism. Through online bioinformatics analysis, we obtained a high NCK1-AS1 level in LUSC tissues. Meanwhile, we confirmed that NCK1-AS1 was upregulated in LUSC cells. Gain- or loss-of-function assays suggested that NCK1-AS1 prompted cell proliferation and migration, whilst impeded cell apoptosis in LUSC. Mechanistically, we revealed that NCK1-AS1 induced the upregulation of its nearby gene NCK adaptor protein 1 (NCK1) at the transcriptional level by interacting with the transcription factor MYC proto-oncogene (MYC). Rescue assays indicated that NCK1 participated in the regulation of NCK1-AS1 on LUSC progression. In conclusion, we firstly demonstrated the oncogenic role of NCK1-AS1 in LUSC and illustrated its downstream molecular mechanism.

Abstract
Anxiety disorder (AD) is characterized by the development of maladaptive neuronal circuits and changes to the excitatory/inhibitory (E/I) balance of the central nervous system. Although AD is considered to be heritable, specific genetic markers remain elusive. Recent genome-wide association studies (GWAS) studies have identified non-catalytic region of tyrosine kinase adaptor protein 1 (NCK1), a gene that codes for an intracellular adaptor protein involved in actin dynamics, as an important gene in the regulation of mood. Using a murine model in which NCK1 is inactivated, we show that male, but not female, mice display increased levels of context-dependent anxiety-like behaviors along with an increase in circulating serum corticosterone relative to control. Treatment of male NCK1 mutant mice with a positive allosteric modulator of the GABAA receptor rescued the anxiety-like behaviors implicating NCK1 in regulating neuronal excitability. These defects are not attributable to apparent defects in gross brain structure or in axon guidance. However, when challenged in an approach-avoidance conflict paradigm, male NCK1-deficient mice have decreased neuronal activation in the prefrontal cortex (PFC), as well as decreased activation of inhibitory interneurons in the basolateral amygdala (BLA). Finally, NCK1 deficiency results in loss of dendritic spine density in principal neurons of the BLA. Taken together, these data implicate NCK1 in the control of E/I balance in BLA. Our work identifies a novel role for NCK1 in the regulation of sex-specific neuronal circuitry necessary for controlling anxiety-like behaviors. Further, our work points to this animal model as a useful preclinical tool for the study of novel anxiolytics and its significance towards understanding sex differences in anxiolytic function.

Abstract
Background Podosomes are membrane‐bound adhesive structures formed by actin remodeling. They are capable of extracellular matrix (ECM) degradation, which is a prerequisite for cancer cell invasion and metastasis. The signaling mechanism of podosome formation is still unknown in cancer. We previously reported that Nck adaptors regulate directional cell migration and endothelial lumen formation by actin remodeling, while deficiency of Nck reduces cancer metastasis. This study evaluated the role of Nck adaptors in podosome biogenesis and cancer invasion. Methods This study was conducted in vitro using both healthy cells (Human Umbilical Vein Endothelial Cell, 3T3 fibroblasts) and cancer cells (prostate cancer cell line; PC3, breast cancer cell line; MDA‐MB‐231). Confocal and TIRF imaging of cells expressing Green Fluorescence Protein (GFP) mutant under altered levels of Nck or downstream of kinase 1 (Dok1) was used to evaluate the podosome formation and fluorescent gelatin matrix degradation. Levels of Nck in human breast carcinoma tissue sections were detected by immune histochemistry using Nck polyclonal antibody. Biochemical interaction of Nck/Dok1 was detected in podosome forming cells using immune precipitation and far‐western blotting. Results This study demonstrates that ectopic expression of Nck1 and Nck2 can induce the endothelial podosome formation in vitro. Nck silencing by short‐hairpin RNA blocked podosome biogenesis and ECM degradation in cSrc‐Y530F transformed endothelial cells in this study. Immunohistochemical analysis revealed the Nck overexpression in human breast carcinoma tissue sections. Immunoprecipitation and far‐western blotting revealed the biochemical interaction of Nck/p62Dok in podosome forming cells. Conclusions Nck adaptors in interaction with Dok1 induce podosome biogenesis and ECM degradation facilitating cancer cell invasion, and therefore a bona fide target of cancer therapy.

Abstract
Understanding the mechanisms of uncontrolled proliferation in cancer cells provides valuable insights into tumor development and is benefit for discovering efficient methods in cancer treatment. In this study, we identified and quantified 2,057 phosphoproteins and 9,824 unique phosphosites in three liver cell lines with high (QGY, Hep3B) and low (L02) proliferative potentials and disclosed the wide variations in phosphorylation sites and levels among them. We found that the number of identified phosphoproteins and phosphosites in these cells were negatively correlated with their proliferative abilities. The function analysis suggested that the aberrant phosphorylation of SR proteins and activation of MAPK pathway might be two critical factors to promote cancer cell proliferation. Meanwhile, the phosphorylation status of mini-chromosome maintenance (MCM) and nuclear pore (NPC) complexes are significantly different between cell lines with high and low proliferative potentials. Furthermore, the phosphosites targeted by kinase families of CDK, STE and HIPK in the proteins coded by cancer driver genes showed distinct profiles between caner and normal cell lines. These results present key phosphorylation networks involving in abnormal proliferation of cancer cells and uncovered potential molecular markers for estimating the proliferation ability of liver cancer cells.
