Caspase-8-driven apoptotic and pyroptotic crosstalk causes cell death and IL-1β release in X-linked inhibitor of apoptosis (XIAP) deficiency. EMBO J 2023; 42:e110468. [PMID: 36647737 PMCID: PMC9975961 DOI: 10.15252/embj.2021110468] [Citation(s) in RCA: 13] [Impact Index Per Article: 13.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/17/2021] [Revised: 12/08/2022] [Accepted: 12/19/2022] [Indexed: 01/18/2023] Open
Abstract
Genetic lesions in X-linked inhibitor of apoptosis (XIAP) pre-dispose humans to cell death-associated inflammatory diseases, although the underlying mechanisms remain unclear. Here, we report that two patients with XIAP deficiency-associated inflammatory bowel disease display increased inflammatory IL-1β maturation as well as cell death-associated caspase-8 and Gasdermin D (GSDMD) processing in diseased tissue, which is reduced upon patient treatment. Loss of XIAP leads to caspase-8-driven cell death and bioactive IL-1β release that is only abrogated by combined deletion of the apoptotic and pyroptotic cell death machinery. Namely, extrinsic apoptotic caspase-8 promotes pyroptotic GSDMD processing that kills macrophages lacking both inflammasome and apoptosis signalling components (caspase-1, -3, -7, -11 and BID), while caspase-8 can still cause cell death in the absence of both GSDMD and GSDME when caspase-3 and caspase-7 are present. Neither caspase-3 and caspase-7-mediated activation of the pannexin-1 channel, or GSDMD loss, prevented NLRP3 inflammasome assembly and consequent caspase-1 and IL-1β maturation downstream of XIAP inhibition and caspase-8 activation, even though the pannexin-1 channel was required for NLRP3 triggering upon mitochondrial apoptosis. These findings uncouple the mechanisms of cell death and NLRP3 activation resulting from extrinsic and intrinsic apoptosis signalling, reveal how XIAP loss can co-opt dual cell death programs, and uncover strategies for targeting the cell death and inflammatory pathways that result from XIAP deficiency.

Quercetin ameliorates XIAP deficiency-associated hyperinflammation. Blood 2022; 140:706-715. [PMID: 35687753 DOI: 10.1182/blood.2021014335] [Citation(s) in RCA: 9] [Impact Index Per Article: 4.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 10/05/2021] [Accepted: 05/02/2022] [Indexed: 11/20/2022] Open
Abstract
XIAP (X-linked inhibitor of apoptosis) deficiency is a rare inborn error of immunity. XIAP deficiency causes hyperinflammatory disease manifestations due to dysregulated TNF (tumor necrosis factor)-receptor signaling and NLRP3 (NOD- [nucleotide-binding oligomerization domain], LRR- [leucine-rich repeat] and pyrin domain-containing protein 3) inflammasome function. Safe and effective long-term treatments are needed and are especially important to help prevent the need for high-risk allogeneic hematopoietic cell transplantation. Here we evaluated inflammasome inhibitors as potential therapeutics with a focus on the natural flavonoid antioxidant quercetin. Bone marrow (BM)-derived macrophages were derived from XIAP-deficient or wild-type (WT) mice. Human monocytes were obtained from control or XIAP-deficient patients. Cells were stimulated with TLR (Toll-like receptor) agonists or TNF-α ± inhibitors or quercetin. For in vivo lipopolysaccharide (LPS) challenge experiments, XIAP-deficient or WT mice were fed mouse chow ± supplemental quercetin (50 mg/kg per day exposure) for 7 days followed by a challenge with 10 ng/kg LPS. IL-1β (interleukin-1β) and IL-18 were measured by ELISA (enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay). In murine studies, quercetin prevented IL-1β secretion from XIAP knockout cells following TLR agonists or TNF-α stimulation (P < .05) and strongly reduced constitutive production of IL-18 by both WT and XIAP-deficient cells (P < .05). At 4 hours after in vivo LPS challenge, blood levels of IL-1β and IL-18 were significantly decreased in mice that had received quercetin-supplemented chow (P < .05). In experiments using human cells, quercetin greatly reduced IL-1β secretion by monocytes following TNF-α stimulation (P < .05). Our data suggest that quercetin may be an effective natural therapeutic for the prevention of XIAP deficiency-associated hyperinflammation. Clinical trials, including careful pharmacokinetic and pharmacodynamic studies to ensure that effective levels of quercetin can be obtained, are warranted.

Abstract
X-linked inhibitor of apoptosis (XIAP) deficiency is a rare inborn error of immunity first described in 2006. XIAP deficiency is characterised by immune dysregulation and a broad spectrum of clinical manifestations, including haemophagocytic lymphohistiocytosis (HLH), inflammatory bowel disease (IBD), hypogammaglobulinemia, susceptibility to infections, splenomegaly, cytopaenias, and other less common autoinflammatory phenomena. Since the first description of the disease, many XIAP deficient patients have been identified and our understanding of the disease has grown. Over 90 disease causing mutations have been described and more inflammatory disease manifestations, such as hepatitis, arthritis, and uveitis, are now well-recognised. Recently, following the introduction of reduced intensity conditioning (RIC), outcomes of allogeneic haematopoietic stem cell transplantation (HSCT), the only curative treatment option for XIAP deficiency, have improved. The pathophysiology of XIAP deficiency is not fully understood, however it is known that XIAP plays a role in both the innate and adaptive immune response and in immune regulation, most notably through modulation of tumour necrosis factor (TNF)-receptor signalling and regulation of NLRP3 inflammasome activity. In this review we will provide an up to date overview of both the clinical aspects and pathophysiology of XIAP deficiency.

Abstract
This work aims to investigate the function and mechanism of long non-coding RNA (lncRNA) cytoskeleton regulator RNA (CYTOR) in myocardial injury induced by sepsis. The sepsis-induced myocardial injury model in mice was established by intraperitoneal injection of LPS (10 mg/kg) in vivo, and cardiomyocyte H9c2 was treated with LPS to mimic sepsis in vitro. CYTOR expression and miR-24 expression were detected by qRT-PCR. After up-regulation or down-regulation of CYTOR and miR-24 expression in the H9c2 cells, and the viability of the cells was detected via MTT assay, and cell apoptosis was detected by TUNEL assay. Western blot was applied to determine the expression level of caspase 3, Bax and X-chromosome-linked inhibitor of apoptosis (XIAP). Interaction between CYTOR and miR-24 was determined by bioinformatics analysis, RT-PCR and dual luciferase reporter assay. Interaction between miR-24 and XIAP was determined through bioinformatics analysis, RT-PCR, western blot and dual luciferase reporter assay. CYTOR was markedly down-regulated. CYTOR interacted with miR-24, and negatively regulated its expression level. Over-expression of CYTOR or transfection of miR-24 inhibitors significantly promoted viability and inhibited apoptosis of H9c2 cells, while the knockdown of CYTOR and transfection of miR-24 mimics had opposite effects. CYTOR suppressed the expression level of apoptosis-related proteins, but miR-24 increased them. miR-24 directly targeted the 3'UTR of XIAP, and suppressed it, and XIAP was modulated indirectly by CYTOR. Down-regulation of CYTOR aggravates sepsis-induced cardiac injury via regulating miR-24 and XIAP.

Abstract
The inhibitor of apoptosis proteins (IAPs) are a family of proteins that were chiefly known for their ability to inhibit apoptosis by blocking caspase activation or activity. Recent research has shown that cellular IAP1 (cIAP1), cIAP2, and X-linked IAP (XIAP) also regulate signaling by receptors of the innate immune system by ubiquitylating their substrates. These IAPs thereby act at the intersection of pathways leading to cell death and inflammation. Mutation of IAP genes can impair tissue homeostasis and is linked to several human diseases. Small-molecule IAP antagonists have been developed to treat certain malignant, infectious, and inflammatory diseases. Here, we will discuss recent advances in our understanding of the functions of cIAP1, cIAP2, and XIAP; the consequences of their mutation or dysregulation; and the therapeutic potential of IAP antagonist drugs.
