Abstract
Tuberculosis, caused by Mycobacterium tuberculosis, remains one of the deadliest infections in humans. Because Mycobacterium bovis Bacillus Calmette-Guérin (BCG) share genetic similarities with Mycobacterium tuberculosis, it is often used as a model to elucidate the molecular mechanisms of more severe tuberculosis infection. Caveolin-1 has been implied in many physiological processes and diseases, but it's role in mycobacterial infections has barely been studied. We isolated macrophages from Wildtype or Caveolin-1 deficient mice and analyzed hallmarks of infection, such as internalization, induction of autophagy and apoptosis. For in vivo assays we intravenously injected mice with BCG and investigated tissues for bacterial load with colony-forming unit assays, bioactive lipids with mass spectrometry and changes of protein expressions by Western blotting. Our results revealed that Caveolin-1 was important for early killing of BCG infection in vivo and in vitro, controlled acid sphingomyelinase (Asm)-dependent ceramide formation, apoptosis and inflammatory cytokines upon infection with BCG. In accordance, Caveolin-1 deficient mice and macrophages showed higher bacterial burdens in the livers. The findings indicate that Caveolin-1 plays a role in infection of mice and murine macrophages with BCG, by controlling cellular apoptosis and inflammatory host response. These clues might be useful in the fight against tuberculosis.

[PMID: 38704467 PMCID: PMC11069504 DOI: 10.1038/s41598-024-61071-w] [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: 10/18/2023] [Accepted: 04/30/2024] [Indexed: 05/06/2024] Open
Abstract
In order to identify how differential gene expression in the trabecular meshwork (TM) contributes to racial disparities of caveolar protein expression, TM dysfunction and development of primary open angle glaucoma (POAG), RNA sequencing was performed to compare TM tissue obtained from White and Black POAG surgical (trabeculectomy) specimens. Healthy donor TM tissue from White and Black donors was analyzed by PCR, qPCR, immunohistochemistry staining, and Western blot to evaluate SDPR (serum deprivation protein response; Cavin 2) and CAV1/CAV2 (Caveolin 1/Caveolin 2). Standard transmission electron microscopy (TEM) and immunogold labeled studies were performed. RNA sequencing demonstrated reduced SDPR expression in TM from Black vs White POAG patients' surgical specimens, with no significant expression differences in other caveolae-associated genes, confirmed by qPCR analysis. No racial differences in SDPR gene expression were noted in healthy donor tissue by PCR analysis, but there was greater expression as compared to specimens from patients with glaucoma. Analysis of SDPR protein expression confirmed specific expression in the TM regions, but not in adjacent tissues. TEM studies of TM specimens from healthy donors did not demonstrate any racial differences in caveolar morphology, but a significant reduction of caveolae with normal morphology and immuno-gold staining of SDPR were noted in glaucomatous TM as compared to TM from healthy donors. Linkage of SDPR expression levels in TM, POAG development, and caveolar ultrastructural morphology may provide the basis for a novel pathway of exploration of the pathologic mechanisms of glaucoma. Differential gene expression of SDPR in TM from Black vs White subjects with glaucoma may further our understanding of the important public health implications of the racial disparities of this blinding disease.

Pediatr Res 2024:10.1038/s41390-023-02968-6. [PMID: 38172213 DOI: 10.1038/s41390-023-02968-6] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 09/12/2022] [Revised: 11/13/2023] [Accepted: 11/26/2023] [Indexed: 01/05/2024]
Abstract
BACKGROUND Premature infants may suffer from high levels of bilirubin that could lead to neurotoxicity. Bilirubin has been shown to decrease L1-mediated ERK1/2 signaling, L1 phosphorylation, and L1 tyrosine 1176 dephosphorylation. Furthermore, bilirubin redistributes L1 into lipid rafts (LR) and decreases L1-mediated neurite outgrowth. We demonstrate that choline supplementation improves L1 function and signaling in the presence of bilirubin. METHODS Cerebellar granule neurons (CGN) were cultured with and without supplemental choline, and the effects on L1 signaling and function were measured in the presence of bilirubin. L1 activation of ERK1/2, L1 phosphorylation and dephosphorylation were measured. L1 distribution in LR was quantified and neurite outgrowth of CGN was determined. RESULTS Forty µM choline significantly reduced the effect of bilirubin on L1 activation of ERK1/2 by 220% (p = 0.04), and increased L1 triggered changes in tyrosine phosphorylation /dephosphorylation of L1 by 34% (p = 0.026) and 35% (p = 0.02) respectively. Choline ameliorated the redistribution of L1 in lipid rafts by 38% (p = 0.02) and increased L1-mediated mean neurite length by 11% (p = 0.04). CONCLUSION Choline pretreatment of CGN significantly reduced the disruption of L1 function by bilirubin. The supplementation of pregnant women and preterm infants with choline may increase infant resilience to the effects of bilirubin. IMPACT This article establishes choline as an intervention for the neurotoxic effects of bilirubin on lipid rafts. This article provides clear evidence toward establishing one intervention for bilirubin neurotoxicity, where little is understood. This article paves the way for future investigation into the mechanism of the ameliorative effect of choline on bilirubin neurotoxicity.

Abstract
Genetic rodent models are widely used in glaucoma related research. With vast amount of information revealed by human studies about genetic correlations with glaucoma, use of these models is relevant and required. In this review, we discuss the glaucoma endophenotypes and importance of their representation in an experimental animal model. Mice and rats are the most popular animal species used as genetic models due to ease of genetic manipulations in these animal species as well as the availability of their genomic information. With technological advances, induction of glaucoma related genetic mutations commonly observed in human is possible to achieve in rodents in a desirable manner. This approach helps to study the pathobiology of the disease process with the background of genetic abnormalities, reveals potential therapeutic targets and gives an opportunity to test newer therapeutic options. Various genetic manipulation leading to appearance of human relevant endophenotypes in rodents indicate their relevance in glaucoma pathology and the utility of these rodent models for exploring various aspects of the disease related to targeted mutation. The molecular pathways involved in the pathophysiology of glaucoma leading to elevated intraocular pressure and the disease hallmark, apoptosis of retinal ganglion cells and optic nerve degeneration, have been extensively explored in genetic rodent models. In this review, we discuss the consequences of various genetic manipulations based on the primary site of pathology in the anterior or the posterior segment. We discuss how these genetic manipulations produce features in rodents that can be considered a close representation of disease phenotype in human. We also highlight several molecular mechanisms revealed by using genetic rodent models of glaucoma including those involved in increased aqueous outflow resistance, loss of retinal ganglion cells and optic neuropathy. Lastly, we discuss the limitations of the use of genetic rodent models in glaucoma related research.

Abstract
Pulmonary arterial (PA) smooth muscle cells (PASMC) generate vascular tone in response to agonists coupled to Gq-protein receptor signaling. Such agonists stimulate oscillating calcium waves, the frequency of which drives the strength of contraction. These Ca2+ events are modulated by a variety of ion channels including voltage-gated calcium channels (CaV1.2), the Tmem16a or Anoctamin-1 (ANO1)-encoded calcium-activated chloride (CaCC) channel, and Ca2+ release from the sarcoplasmic reticulum through inositol-trisphosphate receptors (IP3R). Although these calcium events have been characterized, it is unclear how these calcium oscillations underly a sustained contraction in these muscle cells. We used smooth muscle-specific ablation of ANO1 and pharmacological tools to establish the role of ANO1, CaV1.2, and IP3R in the contractile and intracellular Ca2+ signaling properties of mouse PA smooth muscle expressing the Ca2+ biosensor GCaMP3 or GCaMP6. Pharmacological block or genetic ablation of ANO1 or inhibition of CaV1.2 or IP3R, or Ca2+ store depletion equally inhibited 5-HT-induced tone and intracellular Ca2+ waves. Coimmunoprecipitation experiments showed that an anti-ANO1 antibody was able to pull down both CaV1.2 and IP3R. Confocal and superresolution nanomicroscopy showed that ANO1 coassembles with both CaV1.2 and IP3R at or near the plasma membrane of PASMC from wild-type mice. We conclude that the stable 5-HT-induced PA contraction results from the integration of stochastic and localized Ca2+ events supported by a microenvironment comprising ANO1, CaV1.2, and IP3R. In this model, ANO1 and CaV1.2 would indirectly support cyclical Ca2+ release events from IP3R and propagation of intracellular Ca2+ waves.

Abstract
Glaucoma is a common retinal disorder characterized by progressive optic nerve damage, resulting in visual impairment and potential blindness. Elevated intraocular pressure (IOP) is a major risk factor, but some patients still experience disease progression despite IOP-lowering treatments. Genome-wide association studies have linked variations in the Caveolin1/2 (CAV-1/2) gene loci to glaucoma risk. Cav-1, a key protein in caveolae membrane invaginations, is involved in signaling pathways and its absence impairs retinal function. Recent research suggests that Cav-1 is implicated in modulating the BDNF/TrkB signaling pathway in retinal ganglion cells, which plays a critical role in retinal ganglion cell (RGC) health and protection against apoptosis. Understanding the interplay between these proteins could shed light on glaucoma pathogenesis and provide potential therapeutic targets.

Cell Entry of Avian Reovirus Modulated by Cell-Surface Annexin A2 and Adhesion G Protein-Coupled Receptor Latrophilin-2 Triggers Src and p38 MAPK Signaling Enhancing Caveolin-1- and Dynamin 2-Dependent Endocytosis. Microbiol Spectr 2023; 11:e0000923. [PMID: 37097149 PMCID: PMC10269738 DOI: 10.1128/spectrum.00009-23] [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: 01/06/2023] [Accepted: 04/05/2023] [Indexed: 04/26/2023] Open
Abstract
The specifics of cell receptor-modulated avian reovirus (ARV) entry remain unknown. By using a viral overlay protein-binding assay (VOPBA) and an in-gel digestion coupled with liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry (LC-MS/MS), we determined that cell-surface annexin A2 (AnxA2) and adhesion G protein-coupled receptor Latrophilin-2 (ADGRL2) modulate ARV entry. Direct interaction between the ARV σC protein and AnxA2 and ADGRL2 in Vero and DF-1 cells was demonstrated in situ by proximity ligation assays. By using short hairpin RNAs (shRNAs) to silence the endogenous AnxA2 and ADGRL2 genes, ARV entry could be efficiently blocked. A significant decrease in virus yields and the intracellular specific signal for σC protein was observed in Vero cells preincubated with the specific AnxA2 and ADGRL2 monoclonal antibodies, indicating that AnxA2 and ADGRL2 are involved in modulating ARV entry. Furthermore, we found that cells pretreated with the AnxA2/S100A10 heterotetramer (A2t) inhibitor A2ti-1 suppressed ARV-mediated activation of Src and p38 mitogen-activated protein kinase (MAPK), demonstrating that Src and p38 MAPK serve as downstream molecules of cell-surface AnxA2 signaling. Our results reveal that suppression of cell-surface AnxA2 with the A2ti-1 inhibitor increased Csk-Cbp interaction, suggesting that ARV entry suppresses Cbp-mediated relocation of Csk to the membrane, thereby activating Src. Furthermore, reciprocal coimmunoprecipitation assays revealed that σC can interact with signaling molecules, lipid raft, and vimentin. The current study provides novel insights into cell-surface AnxA2- and ADGRL2-modulated cell entry of ARV which triggers Src and p38 MAPK signaling to enhance caveolin-1-, dynamin 2-, and lipid raft-dependent endocytosis. IMPORTANCE By analyzing results from VOPBA and LC-MS/MS, we have determined that cell-surface AnxA2 and ADGRL2 modulate ARV entry. After ARV binding to receptors, Src and p38 MAPK signaling were triggered and, in turn, increased the phosphorylation of caveolin-1 (Tyr14) and upregulated dynamin 2 expression to facilitate caveolin-1-mediated and dynamin 2-dependent endocytosis. In this work, we demonstrated that ARV triggers Src activation by impeding Cbp-mediated relocation of Csk to the membrane in the early stages of the life cycle. This work provides better insight into cell-surface AnxA2 and ADGRL2, which upregulate Src and p38MAPK signaling pathways to enhance ARV entry and productive infection.

Int J Mol Sci 2023; 24:8741. [PMID: 37240087 PMCID: PMC10218685 DOI: 10.3390/ijms24108741] [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: 04/17/2023] [Revised: 05/10/2023] [Accepted: 05/11/2023] [Indexed: 05/28/2023] Open
Abstract
This study aimed to examine the effect of lipid emulsion on the vasodilation induced by a toxic dose of amlodipine in isolated rat aorta and elucidate its mechanism, with a particular focus on nitric oxide. The effects of endothelial denudation, NW-nitro-L-arginvine methyl ester (L-NAME), methylene blue, lipid emulsion, and linolenic acid on the amlodipine-induced vasodilation and amlodipine-induced cyclic guanosine monophosphate (cGMP) production were examined. Furthermore, the effects of lipid emulsion, amlodipine, and PP2, either alone or combined, on endothelial nitric oxide synthase (eNOS), caveolin-1, and Src-kinase phosphorylation were examined. Amlodipine-induced vasodilation was higher in endothelium-intact aorta than in endothelium-denuded aorta. L-NAME, methylene blue, lipid emulsion, and linolenic acid inhibited amlodipine-induced vasodilation and amlodipine-induced cGMP production in the endothelium-intact aorta. Lipid emulsion reversed the increased stimulatory eNOS (Ser1177) phosphorylation and decreased inhibitory eNOS (Thr495) phosphorylation induced via amlodipine. PP2 inhibited stimulatory eNOS, caveolin-1, and Src-kinase phosphorylation induced via amlodipine. Lipid emulsion inhibited amlodipine-induced endothelial intracellular calcium increase. These results suggest that lipid emulsion attenuated the vasodilation induced via amlodipine through inhibiting nitric oxide release in isolated rat aorta, which seems to be mediated via reversal of stimulatory eNOS (Ser1177) phosphorylation and inhibitory eNOS (Thr495) dephosphorylation, which are also induced via amlodipine.

Abstract
RATIONALE Flask-shaped invaginations of the cardiomyocyte sarcolemma called caveolae require the structural protein caveolin-3 (Cav-3) and host a variety of ion channels, transporters, and signaling molecules. Reduced Cav-3 expression has been reported in models of heart failure, and variants in CAV3 have been associated with the inherited long-QT arrhythmia syndrome. Yet, it remains unclear whether alterations in Cav-3 levels alone are sufficient to drive aberrant repolarization and increased arrhythmia risk. OBJECTIVE To determine the impact of cardiac-specific Cav-3 ablation on the electrophysiological properties of the adult mouse heart. METHODS AND RESULTS Cardiac-specific, inducible Cav3 homozygous knockout (Cav-3KO) mice demonstrated a marked reduction in Cav-3 expression by Western blot and loss of caveolae by electron microscopy. However, there was no change in macroscopic cardiac structure or contractile function. The QTc interval was increased in Cav-3KO mice, and there was an increased propensity for ventricular arrhythmias. Ventricular myocytes isolated from Cav-3KO mice exhibited a prolonged action potential duration (APD) that was due to reductions in outward potassium currents (Ito, Iss) and changes in inward currents including slowed inactivation of ICa,L and increased INa,L. Mathematical modeling demonstrated that the changes in the studied ionic currents were adequate to explain the prolongation of the mouse ventricular action potential. Results from human iPSC-derived cardiomyocytes showed that shRNA knockdown of Cav-3 similarly prolonged APD. CONCLUSION We demonstrate that Cav-3 and caveolae regulate cardiac repolarization and arrhythmia risk via the integrated modulation of multiple ionic currents.

Abstract
Triple negative breast cancer (TNBC) has the poorest prognosis compared to other breast cancer subtypes, due to a historical lack of targeted therapies and high rates of relapse. Greater insight into the components of signalling pathways in TNBC tumour cells has led to the clinical evaluation, and in some cases approval, of targeted therapies. In the last decade, G protein-coupled receptors, such as the β2-adrenoceptor, have emerged as potential new therapeutic targets. Here, we describe how the β2-adrenoceptor accelerates TNBC progression in response to stress, and the unique signalling pathway activated by the β2-adrenoceptor to drive the invasion of an aggressive TNBC tumour cell. We highlight evidence that supports an altered organisation of GPCRs in tumour cells, and suggests that activation of the same GPCR in a different cellular location can control unique cell responses. Finally, we speculate how the relocation of GPCRs to the "wrong" place in tumour cells presents opportunities to develop targeted anti-cancer GPCR drugs with greater efficacy and minimal adverse effects.

Biochemical and Biophysical Characterization of the Caveolin-2 Interaction with Membranes and Analysis of the Protein Structural Alteration by the Presence of Cholesterol. Int J Mol Sci 2022; 23:ijms232315203.

Abstract
Caveolin-2 is a protein suitable for the study of interactions of caveolins with other proteins and lipids present in caveolar lipid rafts. Caveolin-2 has a lower tendency to associate with high molecular weight oligomers than caveolin-1, facilitating the study of its structural modulation upon association with other proteins or lipids. In this paper, we have successfully expressed and purified recombinant human caveolin-2 using E. coli. The structural changes of caveolin-2 upon interaction with a lipid bilayer of liposomes were characterized using bioinformatic prediction models, circular dichroism, differential scanning calorimetry, and fluorescence techniques. Our data support that caveolin-2 binds and alters cholesterol-rich domains in the membranes through a CARC domain, a type of cholesterol-interacting domain in its sequence. The far UV-CD spectra support that the purified protein keeps its folding properties but undergoes a change in its secondary structure in the presence of lipids that correlates with the acquisition of a more stable conformation, as shown by differential scanning calorimetry experiments. Fluorescence experiments using egg yolk lecithin large unilamellar vesicles loaded with 1,6-diphenylhexatriene confirmed that caveolin-2 adsorbs to the membrane but only penetrates the core of the phospholipid bilayer if vesicles are supplemented with 30% of cholesterol. Our study sheds light on the caveolin-2 interaction with lipids. In addition, we propose that purified recombinant caveolin-2 can provide a new tool to study protein-lipid interactions within caveolae.

Abstract
AbstractThe treatment of colorectal cancer (CRC) is an unmet medical need in absence of early diagnosis. Here, upon characterizing cancer-specific transposable element-driven transpochimeric gene transcripts (TcGTs) produced by this tumor in the SYSCOL cohort, we find that expression of the hominid-restricted retrogene POU5F1B through aberrant activation of a primate-specific endogenous retroviral promoter is a strong negative prognostic biomarker. Correlating this observation, we demonstrate that POU5F1B fosters the proliferation and metastatic potential of CRC cells. We further determine that POU5F1B, in spite of its phylogenetic relationship with the POU5F1/OCT4 transcription factor, is a membrane-enriched protein that associates with protein kinases and known targets or interactors as well as with cytoskeleton-related molecules, and induces intracellular signaling events and the release of trans-acting factors involved in cell growth and cell adhesion. As POU5F1B is an apparently non-essential gene only lowly expressed in normal tissues, and as POU5F1B-containing TcGTs are detected in other tumors besides CRC, our data provide interesting leads for the development of cancer therapies.

Roads to Stat3 Paved with Cadherins. Cells 2022; 11:cells11162537.

Abstract
The engagement of cadherins, cell-to-cell adhesion proteins, triggers a dramatic increase in the levels and activity of the Rac/Cdc42 GTPases, through the inhibition of proteasomal degradation. This leads to an increase in transcription and secretion of IL6 family cytokines, activation of their common receptor, gp130, in an autocrine manner and phosphorylation of the signal transducer and activator of transcription-3 (Stat3) on tyrosine-705 by the Jak kinases. Stat3 subsequently dimerizes, migrates to the nucleus and activates the transcription of genes involved in cell division and survival. The Src oncogene also increases Rac levels, leading to secretion of IL6 family cytokines and gp130 activation, which triggers a Stat3-ptyr705 increase. Interestingly, at the same time, Src downregulates cadherins in a quantitative manner, while cadherins are required to preserve gp130 levels for IL6 family signalling. Therefore, a fine balance between Src527F/Rac/IL6 and Src527F/cadherin/gp130 levels is in existence, which is required for Stat3 activation. This further demonstrates the important role of cadherins in the activation of Stat3, through preservation of gp130 function. Conversely, the absence of cadherin engagement correlates with low Stat3 activity: In sparsely growing cells, both gp130 and Stat3-ptyr705 levels are very low, despite the fact that cSrc is active in the FAK (focal adhesion kinase)/cSrc complex, which further indicates that the engagement of cadherins is important for Stat3 activation, not just their presence. Furthermore, the caveolin-1 protein downregulates Stat3 through binding and sequestration of cadherins to the scaffolding domain of caveolin-1. We hypothesize that the cadherins/Rac/gp130 axis may be a conserved pathway to Stat3 activation in a number of systems. This fact could have significant implications in Stat3 biology, as well as in drug testing and development.

Abstract
The caveolae-mediated transport across polarized epithelial cell barriers has been largely deciphered in the last decades and is considered the second essential intracellular transfer mechanism, after the clathrin-dependent endocytosis. The basic cell biology knowledge was supplemented recently, with the molecular mechanisms beyond caveolae generation implying the key contribution of the lipid-binding proteins (the structural protein Caveolin and the adapter protein Cavin), along with the bulb coat stabilizing molecules PACSIN-2 and Eps15 homology domain protein-2. The current attention is focused also on caveolae architecture (such as the bulb coat, the neck, the membrane funnel inside the bulb, and the associated receptors), and their specific tasks during the intracellular transport of various cargoes. Here, we resume the present understanding of the assembly, detachment, and internalization of caveolae from the plasma membrane lipid raft domains, and give an updated view on transcytosis and endocytosis, the two itineraries of cargoes transport via caveolae. The review adds novel data on the signalling molecules regulating caveolae intracellular routes and on the transport dysregulation in diseases. The therapeutic possibilities offered by exploitation of Caveolin-1 expression and caveolae trafficking, and the urgent issues to be uncovered conclude the review.

Abstract
AIMS Uterine leiomyomas, or fibroids, are estrogen dependent benign tumor in women, however, they have limited treatment options. Simvastatin, a drug commonly used to treat high cholesterol. Recently we demonstrated that simvastatin alters estrogen signaling by reducing the expression and trafficking of the estrogen receptor-α (ER-α) in human uterine leiomyoma cells. Caveolae are invaginations of the plasma membrane where ER-α is known to localize and directly interacts with the caveolar protein caveolin-1 (CAV1). This study examines the effects of simvastatin on plasma membrane caveolae and the expression and palmitoylation of CAV1 in human leiomyomas which may influence ER-α signaling. MAIN METHODS We performed in vitro experiments using primary and immortalized human uterine leiomyoma cells. The caveolae were quantified using transmission electron microscopy. Additionally, we examined the impact of simvastatin treatment (40 mg orally per day for 12 weeks) on human leiomyoma tissue obtained from a randomized controlled trial. The CAV1 protein and mRNA levels were determined using quantitative real-time polymerase chain reactions, western blotting, and immunofluorescence analyses. KEY FINDINGS Simvastatin decreased the number of caveolae in primary leiomyoma cells and reduced CAV1 abundance in whole cells and remarkably the plasma protein fraction. It also decreased CAV1 palmitoylation, a post-translational modification associated with CAV1 activation. The effects of simvastatin on CAV1 were recapitulated in human leiomyoma tissue samples. SIGNIFICANCE Our results identify caveolae and CAV1 as novel targets of simvastatin which may contribute to the recently described effects of simvastatin on ER-α signaling and plasma membrane trafficking.

Abstract
Caveolins are membrane proteins which contains caveolae. They are present in the plasma membrane. Many researchers found that caveolae have been associated with expression of the caveolins in major physiological networks of mammalian cells. Subtypes of caveolin including caveolin-1 and caveolin-2 have been found in micro arteries of rat brain, while caveolin-3 has been found in astrocytes. Caveolin-1 and caveolae play important roles in Alzheimer's disease, cancer, ischemic preconditioning-mediated cardio-protection, postmenopausal alterations in women, and age-related neurodegeneration. Caveolin-1 may modify fatty acid transmembrane flux in adipocytes. The discovery of a link between ischemia preconditioning, cardio-protection, and endothelial nitric oxide synthase has supported cardiovascular research tremendously. Therefore, caveolins are effective in regulation of cellular, cardiovascular, brain, and immune processes. They ascertain new signalling pathways and link the functionalities of these pathways. This review paper focuses on contribution of caveolins in various conditions, caveolin expression at the molecular level and their physiological effects in many organ systems.

Abstract
Polymorphisms in the CAV1/2 gene loci impart increased risk for primary open-angle glaucoma (POAG). CAV1 encodes caveolin-1 (Cav1), which is required for biosynthesis of plasma membrane invaginations called caveolae. Cav1 knockout mice exhibit elevated intraocular pressure (IOP) and decreased outflow facility, but the mechanistic role of Cav1 in IOP homeostasis is unknown. We hypothesized that caveolae sequester/inhibit RhoA, to regulate trabecular meshwork (TM) mechanosensing and contractile tone. Using phosphorylated myosin light chain (pMLC) as a surrogate indicator for Rho/ROCK activity and contractile tone, we found that pMLC was elevated in Cav1-deficient TM cells compared to control (131 ± 10%, n = 10, p = 0.016). Elevation of pMLC levels following Cav1 knockdown occurred in cells on a soft surface (137 ± 7%, n = 24, p < 0.0001), but not on a hard surface (122 ± 17%, n = 12, p = 0.22). In Cav1-deficient TM cells where pMLC was elevated, Rho activity was also increased (123 ± 7%, n = 6, p = 0.017), suggesting activation of the Rho/ROCK pathway. Cyclic stretch reduced pMLC/MLC levels in TM cells (69 ± 7% n = 9, p = 0.002) and in Cav1-deficient TM cells, although not significantly (77 ± 11% n = 10, p = 0.059). Treatment with the Cav1 scaffolding domain mimetic, cavtratin (1 μM) caused a reduction in pMLC (70 ± 5% n = 7, p = 0.001), as did treatment with the scaffolding domain mutant cavnoxin (1 μM) (82 ± 7% n = 7, p = 0.04). Data suggest that caveolae differentially regulate RhoA signaling, and that caveolae participate in TM mechanotransduction. Cav1 regulation of these key TM functions provide evidence for underlying mechanisms linking polymorphisms in the Cav1/2 gene loci with increased POAG risk.

Abstract
Morphine is generally used to treat chronic pain in clinic. But long-term use of morphine can inevitably induce analgesic tolerance and hyperalgesia. Caveolin-1 is reported to affect morphine-mediated signaling transduction. However, the action mechanism of morphine-induced analgesic tolerance is still unknown. In this study, morphine-induced analgesic tolerance model was established in Sprague-Dawley rats. The effects of Caveolin-1 blocking on neuroinflammation and ERK/c-JUN pathway were then explored. Morphine can remarkably elevate the expression level of Caveolin-1. Based on paw withdrawal latency behavior test, we found that Caveolin-1 blocking can effectively attenuate morphine-induced analgesic tolerance and neuroinflammation. Activation of ERK/c-JUN significantly reversed the above influences caused by Caveolin-1 blocking. Taken together, blocking of Caveolin-1 can attenuate morphine-induced inflammation and analgesic tolerance through inhibiting NLRP3 inflammasome and ERK/c-JUN pathway.

Abstract
BACKGROUND MicroRNAs regulate cardiac hypertrophy development, which precedes and predicts the risk of heart failure. microRNA-204-5p (miR-204) is well expressed in cardiomyocytes, but its role in developing cardiac hypertrophy and cardiac dysfunction (CH/CD) remains poorly understood. METHODS We performed RNA-sequencing, echocardiographic, and molecular/morphometric analysis of the heart of mice lacking or overexpressing miR-204 five weeks after trans-aortic constriction (TAC). The neonatal rat cardiomyocytes, H9C2, and HEK293 cells were used to determine the mechanistic role of miR-204. RESULTS The stretch induces miR-204 expression, and miR-204 inhibits the stretch-induced hypertrophic response of H9C2 cells. The mice lacking miR-204 displayed a higher susceptibility to CH/CD during pressure overload, which was reversed by the adeno-associated virus serotype-9-mediated cardioselective miR-204 overexpression. Bioinformatic analysis of the cardiac transcriptomics of miR-204 knockout mice following pressure overload suggested deregulation of apelin-receptor (APJ) signalling. We found that the stretch-induced extracellular signal-regulated kinase 1/2 (ERK1/2) activation and hypertrophy-related genes expression depend on the APJ, and both of these effects are subject to miR-204 levels. The dynamin inhibitor dynasore inhibited both stretch-induced APJ endocytosis and ERK1/2 activation. In contrast, the miR-204-induced APJ endocytosis was neither inhibited by dynamin inhibitors (dynasore and dyngo) nor associated with ERK1/2 activation. We find that the miR-204 increases the expression of ras-associated binding proteins (e.g., Rab5a, Rab7) that regulate cellular endocytosis. CONCLUSIONS Our results show that miR-204 regulates trafficking of APJ and confers resistance to pressure overload-induced CH/CD, and boosting miR-204 can inhibit the development of CH/CD.

Abstract
Endometrial cancer is one of the most common malignancy affecting women in developed countries. Resection uterus or lesion area is usually the first option for a simple and efficient therapy. Therefore, it is necessary to find a new therapeutic drug to reduce surgery areas to preserve fertility. Anticancer peptides (ACP) are bioactive amino acids with lower toxicity and higher specificity than chemical drugs. This study is to address an ACP, herein named Q7, which could downregulate 24-Dehydrocholesterol Reductase (DHCR24) to disrupt lipid rafts formation, and sequentially affect the AKT signal pathway of HEC-1-A cells to suppress their tumorigenicity such as proliferation and migration. Moreover, lipo-PEI-PEG-complex (LPPC) was used to enhance Q7 anticancer activity in vitro and efficiently show its effects on HEC-1-A cells. Furthermore, LPPC-Q7 exhibited a synergistic effect in combination with doxorubicin or paclitaxel. To summarize, Q7 was firstly proved to exhibit an anticancer effect on endometrial cancer cells and combined with LPPC efficiently improved the cytotoxicity of Q7.

Abstract
Caveolin-1(Cav-1) is one of the most important components of caveolae in the cell membrane, which plays an important role in cell signaling transduction, such as EGFR and TGF-β receptor transactivation. The purpose of this study was to evaluate the effect of c-Abl and NAD(P)H oxidases (NOX) on phosphorylation of Cav-1 and consequently their effect on phosphorylation of Smad2C induced by Endothelin-1 in human vascular smooth muscle cells (VSMCs). In this study, all experiments were performed using human VSMCs. The phosphorylation level of the Caveolin-1 and Smad2C proteins were assessed by western blotting using Phospho-Caveolin-1 (Tyr14) antibody and phospho-Smad2 (Ser465/467) antibody. The data were reported as mean ± SEM. The VSMCs treated with endothelin-1(ET-1) (100 nanomolar (nmol)) demonstrated a time-dependent increase in the pCav-1 level (p<0.05). The inhibitors of NOX (diphenyleneiodonium) (p<0.05), cholesterol depleting agent (beta-cyclodextrin) (p<0.05) and c-Abl inhibitor (PP1) (p<0.01) were able to reduce the level of the phospho-Cav-1 and phospho-Smad2C induced by Et-1 (p<0.05). Our results proposed that caveolae structure, NOX, c-Abl played an important role in the phosphorylation of Cav-1 induced by ET-1 in the human VSMCs. Furthermore, our findings showed that phosphoCav-1 involved in TGFR transactivation. Thus, Et-1 via a transactivation-dependent mechanism can cause phosphorylation of Smad2C.

Abstract
We recently reported that an intact caveolar structure is necessary for adequate cell migration and tubulogenesis of the human extravillous trophoblast (EVT) cells. Emerging evidence supports that hyperosmolarity induces the internalization of caveolae into the cytoplasm and accelerates their turnover. Furthermore, signaling pathways associated with the regulation of trophoblast differentiation are localized in caveolae. We hypothesized that hyperosmolarity impairs EVT differentiation and caveolae/caveolin−1 (Cav-1) participates in this process. EVT cells (Swan 71 cell line) were cultured in complete Dulbecco’s Modified Eagle Medium/Nutrient Mixture F-12 and exposed to hyperosmolar condition (generated by the addition of 100 mM sucrose). Hyperosmolarity altered the EVT cell migration and the formation of tube-like structures. In addition, cell invasion was decreased along with a reduction in the latent and active forms of matrix metalloproteinase-2 (MMP−2) secreted by these cells. With respect to Cav-1 protein abundance, we found that hyperosmolarity enhanced its degradation by the lysosomal pathway. Accordingly, in the hyperosmolar condition, we also observed a significant increase in the number of vacuoles and the internalization of the caveolae into the cytoplasm. Taken together, our findings suggest that hyperosmolarity may induce caveolae internalization and increase their turnover, compromising the normal differentiation of EVT cells.

Abstract
We have investigated the role caveolae/caveolin-1 (Cav-1) plays in endothelial nitric oxide synthase (eNOS) activation and how it impacts pregnancy-induced decreased vascular reactivity in normotensive (Wistar rats) and spontaneously hypertensive rats (SHR). Wistar rats and SHR were divided into non-pregnant (NP) and pregnant (P). Nitrite levels were assessed by the Griess method in the aorta and mesenteric vascular bed. In functional studies, arteries were incubated with methyl-β-cyclodextrin (dextrin, 10mmol/L), which disrupts caveolae by depleting cholesterol, and concentration-response curves to phenylephrine (PE) and acetylcholine (ACh) were constructed. Electronic microscopy was used to determine endothelial caveolae density in the aorta and resistance mesenteric artery in the presence of vehicle or dextrin (10mmol/L). Western blot was performed to evaluate Cav-1, p-Cav-1, calmodulin (CaM), and heat shock protein 90 (Hsp90) expression. Cav-1/eNOS interaction in the aorta and mesenteric vascular bed was assessed by co-immunoprecipitation. Nitric oxide (NO) generation was greater in arteries from P groups compared to NP groups. Dextrin did not change vascular responses in the aorta from P groups or the number of caveolae in P groups compared to NP groups. Compared to NP Wistar rats, NP SHR showed smaller number of caveolae and reduced Cav-1 expression. Pregnancy did not alter Cav-1, CaM, or Hsp90 expression in the aorta or mesenteric vascular bed from Wistar rats or SHR. These results suggest that pregnancy does not alter expression of the main eNOS regulatory proteins, but it decreases Cav-1/eNOS interaction. Reduced Cav-1/eNOS interaction in the aorta and mesenteric vascular bed seems to be an important mechanism to increase eNOS activity and nitric oxide production in pregnant normotensive and hypertensive rats.

Abstract
Information flow from a source to a receiver becomes informative when the recipient can process the signal into a meaningful form. Information exchange and interpretation is essential in biology and understanding how cells integrate signals from a variety of information-coding molecules into complex orchestrated responses is a major challenge for modern cell biology. In complex organisms, cell to cell communication occurs mostly through neurotransmitters and hormones, and receptors are responsible for signal recognition at the membrane level and information transduction inside the cell. The G protein-coupled receptors (GPCRs) are the largest family of membrane receptors, with nearly 800 genes coding for these proteins. The recognition that GPCRs may physically interact with each other has led to the hypothesis that their dimeric state can provide the framework for temporal coincidence in signaling pathways. Furthermore, the formation of GPCRs higher order oligomers provides the structural basis for organizing distinct cell compartments along the plasma membrane where confined increases in second messengers may be perceived and discriminated. Here, we summarize evidence that supports these conjectures, fostering new ideas about the physiological role played by receptor homo- and hetero-oligomerization in cell biology.

Abstract
Ca2+-activated Cl- channels (CaCCs) perform a multitude of functions including the control of cell excitability, regulation of cell volume and ionic homeostasis, exocrine and endocrine secretion, fertilization, amplification of olfactory sensory function, and control of smooth muscle cell contractility. CaCCs are the translated products of two members (ANO1 and ANO2, also known as TMEM16A and TMEM16B) of the Anoctamin family of genes comprising ten paralogs. This review focuses on recent progress in understanding the molecular mechanisms involved in the regulation of ANO1 by cytoplasmic Ca2+, post-translational modifications, and how the channel protein interacts with membrane lipids and protein partners. After first reviewing the basic properties of native CaCCs, we then present a brief historical perspective highlighting controversies about their molecular identity in native cells. This is followed by a summary of the fundamental biophysical and structural properties of ANO1. We specifically address whether the channel is directly activated by internal Ca2+ or indirectly through the intervention of the Ca2+-binding protein Calmodulin (CaM), and the structural domains responsible for Ca2+- and voltage-dependent gating. We then review the regulation of ANO1 by internal ATP, Calmodulin-dependent protein kinase II-(CaMKII)-mediated phosphorylation and phosphatase activity, membrane lipids such as the phospholipid phosphatidyl-(4,5)-bisphosphate (PIP2), free fatty acids and cholesterol, and the cytoskeleton. The article ends with a survey of physical and functional interactions of ANO1 with other membrane proteins such as CLCA1/2, inositol trisphosphate and ryanodine receptors in the endoplasmic reticulum, several members of the TRP channel family, and the ancillary Κ+ channel β subunits KCNE1/5.

Abstract
Chronic postsurgical pain (CPSP) has a high incidence, but the underlying mechanisms remain elusive. Previous studies have indicated that caveolin-1 (Cav-1) plays a notable role in pain modulation. To study the role of Cav-1 in CPSP in the present study, a rat model of skin/muscle incision and retraction (SMIR) was established. Under anesthesia, skin and superficial muscle of the medial thigh were incised and a small pair of retractors inserted. It was revealed that SMIR increased the expression of Cav-1 in the dorsal root ganglion (DRG) and the injured tissue around the incision. Furthermore, the infiltration of endothelial cells and macrophages in the injured tissue around the incision increased constantly, and the vascular permeability increased due to the destruction of the vascular endothelial barrier function around the injured tissue. Cav-1 was mainly expressed by CD68-positive macrophages and CD34-positive endothelial cells in the injured tissues around the incision, while it was also primarily localized in the medium and large neurofilament 200-positive neurons and a small number of calcitonin gene-related peptide- and isolectin B4-positive small and medium-sized neurons in the DRG. The results demonstrated that the sustained high expression levels of Cav-1 in the injured tissue around the incision could lead to the dysfunction of the vascular endothelial barrier and, thus, could induce the inflammatory response through the lipoprotein transport of endothelial cells, thereby resulting in peripheral sensitization. In addition, the sustained high expression levels of Cav-1 in the DRG could sensitize large-sized neurons and change the transmission mode of noxious stimuli. The findings of the present study indicated that a Cav-1-mediated process could participate in neuronal transmission pathways associated with pain modulation.

Abstract
Objective: The dominant driver of arteriogenesis is elevated shear stress sensed by the endothelial glycocalyx thereby promoting arterial outward remodeling. Hyaluronan, a critical component of the endothelial glycocalyx, is synthesized by 3 HAS isoenzymes (hyaluronan synthases 1-3) at the plasma membrane. Considering further the importance of HAS3 for smooth muscle cell and immune cell functions we aimed to evaluate its role in collateral artery growth. Approach and Results: Male Has3-deficient (Has3-KO) mice were subjected to hindlimb ischemia. Blood perfusion was monitored by laser Doppler perfusion imaging and endothelial function was assessed by measurement of flow-mediated dilation in vivo. Collateral remodeling was monitored by high resolution magnetic resonance angiography. A neutralizing antibody against CD44 (clone KM201) was injected intraperitoneally to analyze hyaluronan signaling in vivo. After hindlimb ischemia, Has3-KO mice showed a reduced arteriogenic response with decreased collateral remodeling and impaired perfusion recovery. While postischemic leukocyte infiltration was unaffected, a diminished flow-mediated dilation pointed towards an impaired endothelial cell function. Indeed, endothelial AKT (protein kinase B)-dependent eNOS (endothelial nitric oxide synthase) phosphorylation at Ser1177 was substantially reduced in Has3-KO thigh muscles. Endothelial-specific Has3-KO mice mimicked the hindlimb ischemia-induced phenotype of impaired perfusion recovery as observed in global Has3-deficiency. Mechanistically, blocking selectively the hyaluronan binding site of CD44 reduced flow-mediated dilation, thereby suggesting hyaluronan signaling through CD44 as the underlying signaling pathway. Conclusions: In summary, HAS3 contributes to arteriogenesis in hindlimb ischemia by hyaluronan/CD44-mediated stimulation of eNOS phosphorylation at Ser1177. Thus, strategies augmenting endothelial HAS3 or CD44 could be envisioned to enhance vascularization under pathological conditions.

Abstract
Over the past several years, studies have highlighted the δ-opioid receptor (DOPr) as a promising therapeutic target for chronic pain management. While exhibiting milder undesired effects than most currently prescribed opioids, its specific agonists elicit effective analgesic responses in numerous animal models of chronic pain, including inflammatory, neuropathic, diabetic, and cancer-related pain. However, as compared with the extensively studied μ-opioid receptor, the molecular mechanisms governing its trafficking remain elusive. Recent advances have denoted several significant particularities in the regulation of DOPr intracellular routing, setting it apart from the other members of the opioid receptor family. Although they share high homology, each opioid receptor subtype displays specific amino acid patterns potentially involved in the regulation of its trafficking. These precise motifs or "barcodes" are selectively recognized by regulatory proteins and therefore dictate several aspects of the itinerary of a receptor, including its anterograde transport, internalization, recycling, and degradation. With a specific focus on the regulation of DOPr trafficking, this review will discuss previously reported, as well as potential novel trafficking barcodes within the opioid and nociceptin/orphanin FQ opioid peptide receptors, and their impact in determining distinct interactomes and physiological responses.

Mathew R. Critical Role of Caveolin-1 Loss/Dysfunction in Pulmonary Hypertension. Med Sci (Basel) 2021; 9:medsci9040058. [PMID: 34698188 PMCID: PMC8544475 DOI: 10.3390/medsci9040058] [Citation(s) in RCA: 4] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.3] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/20/2021] [Revised: 08/17/2021] [Accepted: 09/16/2021] [Indexed: 02/07/2023] Open
Abstract
Pulmonary hypertension (PH) is a rare disease with a high morbidity and mortality rate. A number of systemic diseases and genetic mutations are known to lead to PH. The main features of PH are altered vascular relaxation responses and the activation of proliferative and anti-apoptotic pathways, resulting in pulmonary vascular remodeling, elevated pulmonary artery pressure, and right ventricular hypertrophy, ultimately leading to right heart failure and premature death. Important advances have been made in the field of pulmonary pathobiology, and several deregulated signaling pathways have been shown to be associated with PH. Clinical and experimental studies suggest that, irrespective of the underlying disease, endothelial cell disruption and/or dysfunction play a key role in the pathogenesis of PH. Endothelial caveolin-1, a cell membrane protein, interacts with and regulates several transcription factors and maintains homeostasis. Disruption of endothelial cells leads to the loss or dysfunction of endothelial caveolin-1, resulting in reciprocal activation of proliferative and inflammatory pathways, leading to cell proliferation, medial hypertrophy, and PH, which initiates PH and facilitates its progression. The disruption of endothelial cells, accompanied by the loss of endothelial caveolin-1, is accompanied by enhanced expression of caveolin-1 in smooth muscle cells (SMCs) that leads to pro-proliferative and pro-migratory responses, subsequently leading to neointima formation. The neointimal cells have low caveolin-1 and normal eNOS expression that may be responsible for promoting nitrosative and oxidative stress, furthering cell proliferation and metabolic alterations. These changes have been observed in human PH lungs and in experimental models of PH. In hypoxia-induced PH, there is no endothelial disruption, loss of endothelial caveolin-1, or enhanced expression of caveolin-1 in SMCs. Hypoxia induces alterations in membrane composition without caveolin-1 or any other membrane protein loss. However, caveolin-1 is dysfunctional, resulting in cell proliferation, medial hypertrophy, and PH. These alterations are reversible upon removal of hypoxia, provided there is no associated EC disruption. This review examined the role of caveolin-1 disruption and dysfunction in PH.

Abstract
PURPOSE Stem cells are characterized by the capability of self-renewal and multi-differentiation. Normal stem cells, which are important for tissue repair and tissue regeneration, can be divided into embryonic stem cells (ESCs) and somatic stem cells (SSCs) depending on their origin. As a subpopulation of cells within cancer, cancer stem cells (CSCs) are at the root of therapeutic resistance. Tumor-initiating cells (TICs) are necessary for tumor initiation. Caveolin1 (Cav1), a membrane protein located at the caveolae, participates in cell lipid transport, cell migration, cell proliferation, and cell signal transduction. The purpose of this review was to explore the relationship between Cav1 and stem cells. RESULTS In ESCs, Cav1 is beneficial for self-renewal, proliferation, and migration. In SSCs, Cav1 exhibits positive or/and negative effects on stem cell self-renewal, differentiation, proliferation, migration, and angiogenic capacity. Cav1 deficiency impairs normal stem cell-based tissue repair. In CSCs, Cav1 inhibits or/and promotes CSC self-renewal, differentiation, invasion, migration, tumorigenicity ability, and CSC formation. And suppressing Cav1 promotes chemo-sensitivity in CSCs and TICs. CONCLUSION Cav1 shows dual roles in stem cell biology. Targeting the Cav1-stem cell axis would be a new way for tissue repair and cancer drug resistance.

Abstract
Objective Non-alcoholic steatohepatitis (NASH) can progress to fibrosis, cirrhosis and end-stage liver disease. Glucagon-like peptide 1 receptor (GLP-1R) mediates β cell function. Its receptor agonists, currently used to treat type 2 diabetes mellitus, might be effective against NASH. GLP-1R, a G protein-coupled receptor family member, preferentially localises to caveolae. Therefore, we ascertained the cellular localisation of GLP-1R and caveolin (CAV)-1 in NASH liver. Methods Liver biopsies were obtained from three patients with NASH and were compared with those of four normal patients. Immunohistochemistry (IHC) and immunoelectron microscopy (IEM) were used to compare GLP-1R and CAV-1 expression in the livers of patients with metastatic liver cancer and normal patients. Results IHC showed that GLP-1R localised to basolateral membranes of hepatocytes with macrovesicular steatosis and was expressed in monocytes infiltrating hepatic sinusoids. CAV-1 was minimally associated with low-electron density lipid droplets (LDs) in hepatocytes. IEM showed small clusters of GLP-1R molecules on the peripheral rims of LDs and on cytoplasmic leaflets of endoplasmic reticulum membranes and vesicles, whereas CAV-1 molecules were found in LD caveolae. Conclusions GLP-1R is present in the lipid microdomains of hepatocytes with macrovesicular steatosis. These results may help inform future studies about the liver-specific mechanisms of GLP-1 modulation in NASH therapy.

Abstract
Vasculogenic mimicry (VM) plays an important role in human glioma progression and resistance to antiangiogenic therapy as a compensatory neovascularization mechanism in malignant tumors. Caveolin-1 (Cav-1) has been found to contribute to VM formation. However, it remains largely unknown whether Cav-1 expression correlates with VM in glioma. In this study, we examined CAV-1 expression levels and VM in human glioma cell lines and in 94 human gliomas with different grades of malignancy, and present Cox proportional hazards regression. The molecular role of Cav-1 in glioma cells was investigated using quantitative polymerase chain reaction (qRT-PCR) assays, western blotting, CCK-8 assays, and tubule formation assays. Cav-1 expression and VM formation were positively correlated with each other and both were closely associated with glioma development and progression as evidenced by the presence of cystic tumor, shortened survival time, and advanced-stage glioma in glioma patients with Cav-1 overexpression/increased VM formation. Cav-1 promoted U251 glioma cell proliferation and VM formation in a Matrigel-based 3D culture model. VM-associated factors including hypoxia-inducible factor 1α (HIF-1α) and p-Akt was significantly elevated by Cav-1 overexpression but suppressed by siCav-1 in U251 cells. Collectively, our study identified Cav-1 as an important regulator of glioma cell proliferation and VM formation, contributing to glioma development and progression.

Abstract
Cellular senescence occurs in response to diverse stresses (e.g., telomere shortening, DNA damage, oxidative stress, oncogene activation). A growing body of evidence indicates that alterations in multiple components of endocytic pathways contribute to cellular senescence. Clathrin-mediated endocytosis (CME) and caveolae-mediated endocytosis (CavME) represent major types of endocytosis that are implicated in senescence. More recent research has also identified a chromatin modifier and tumor suppressor that contributes to the induction of senescence via altered endocytosis. Here, molecular regulators of aberrant endocytosis-induced senescence are reviewed and discussed in the context of their capacity to serve as senescence-inducing stressors or modifiers.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The mechanism of bilirubin neurotoxicity is poorly understood. We hypothesize that bilirubin inhibits the function of lipid rafts (LR), microdomains of the plasma membrane critical for signal transduction. To test this hypothesis, we measured the effect of free bilirubin (Bf) between 7.6 and 122.5 nM on LR-dependent functions of L1 cell adhesion molecule (L1). METHODS Cerebellar granule neurons (CGN) were plated on poly-L-lysine overnight, and neurite length was determined after 1 h treatment with L1 alone or L1 and bilirubin. L1 activation of ERK1/2 was measured in CGN in the presence or absence of bilirubin. The effect of bilirubin on L1 distribution in LR was quantitated, and the localization of bilirubin to LR was determined. RESULTS The addition of bilirubin to CGN treated with L1 significantly decreased neurite length compared to L1 alone. L1 activation of ERK1/2 was inhibited by bilirubin. Bilirubin redistributed L1 into LR. Bilirubin was associated only with LR-containing fractions of a sucrose density gradient. CONCLUSION Bf significantly inhibits LR-dependent functions of L1 and are found only associated with LR, suggesting one mechanism by which bilirubin may exert neurotoxicity is through the dysfunction of protein-LR interactions. IMPACT This article establishes lipid rafts as a target for the neurotoxic effects of bilirubin. This article provides clear evidence toward establishing one mechanism of bilirubin neurotoxicity, where little is understood. This article paves the way for future investigation into lipid raft dependent functions, and its role in neurodevelopmental outcome.

Bortezomib Inhibits Hypoxia-Induced Proliferation by Suppressing Caveolin-1/SOCE/[Ca 2+] i Signaling Axis in Human PASMCs. BIOMED RESEARCH INTERNATIONAL 2021; 2021:5551504.

Abstract
Background Previous studies have demonstrated the ubiquitin-proteasome inhibitor bortezomib (BTZ) can effectively alleviate hypoxia-induced pulmonary hypertension (HPH) by suppressing the intracellular calcium homeostasis in pulmonary arterial smooth muscle cells (PASMCs). Further evaluation showed that the antiproliferation roles of BTZ are mainly mediated by inhibition of the intracellular calcium homeostasis. Caveolin-1 belongs to one of the key regulators of the intracellular calcium homeostasis in PASMCs, which can regulate the store-operated calcium entry (SOCE). However, the effects of BTZ on Caveolin-1 remain unclear. Methods Primarily cultured human PASMCs were used as the cell model. CCK-8 assay was performed to assess the PASMCs proliferation. Western blotting and real-time qPCR were used to detect the mRNA and protein expressions. Fura-2-based fluorescence imaging experiments were used to determine the intracellular calcium concentration ([Ca2+]i). The protein synthesis inhibitor cycloheximide (CHX) was utilized to determine the protein degradation process. Results Firstly, in cultured human PASMCs, treatment of BTZ for 24 or 60 hours significantly downregulates Caveolin-1 at both mRNA and protein levels. Secondly, in the presence CHX, BTZ treatment also leads to downregulated protein expression and fastened protein degradation of Caveolin-1, indicating that BTZ can promote the Caveolin-1 protein degradation, other than the BTZ on Caveolin-1 mRNA transcription. Then, BTZ significantly attenuates the hypoxia-elevated baseline [Ca2+]i, SOCE, and cell proliferation. Conclusion We firstly observed that the ubiquitin-proteasome inhibitor BTZ can inhibit the Caveolin-1 expression at both mRNA transcription and protein degradation processes, providing new mechanistic basis of BTZ on PASMC proliferation.

Abstract
Mechanical loading can induce or antagonize the extracellular matrix (ECM) synthesis, proliferation, migration, and inflammatory responses of annulus fibrosus cells (AFCs), depending on the loading mode and level. Caveolin-1 (Cav1), the core protein of caveolae, plays an important role in cellular mechanotransduction and inflammatory responses. In the present study, we presented that AFCs demonstrated different behaviors when subjected to cyclic tensile strain (CTS) for 24 h at a magnitude of 0%, 2%, 5% and 12%, respectively. It was found that 5% CTS had positive effects on cell proliferation, migration and anabolism, while 12% CTS had the opposite effects. Besides, cells exposed to interleukin-1β stimulus exhibited an increase expression in inflammatory genes, and the expression of these genes decreased after exposure to moderate mechanical loading with 5% CTS. In addition, 5% CTS decreased the level of Cav1 and integrin β1 and exhibited anti-inflammatory effects. Moreover, the expression of integrin β1 and p-p65 increased in AFCs transfected with Cav1 plasmids. In vivo results revealed that moderate mechanical stimulation could recover the water content and morphology of the discs. In conclusion, moderate mechanical stimulation restrained Cav1-mediated signaling pathway and exhibited anti-inflammatory effects on AFCs. Together with in vivo results, this study expounds the underlying molecular mechanisms on the effect of moderate mechanical stimulation on intervertebral discs (IVDs) and may provide a new therapeutic strategy for the treatment of IVD degeneration.

Abstract
Significance: Hypertension is characterized as the imbalance of vasoconstriction and vasodilatation. Hypertension is influenced by genetic variation and environmental risk factors, such as unhealthy diet. Clinical trial results suggest that increasing intake of foods rich in n-3 polyunsaturated fatty acids (PUFAs) is beneficial for hypertension. Recent Advances: We summarized recent clinical trials regarding supplementation with n-3 PUFAs to reduce blood pressure (BP) in untreated hypertensive and normotensive subjects and systematically discussed the antihypertension mechanisms of n-3 PUFAs/n-3 oxylipins, including reducing oxidative stress, altering functions of membrane-related proteins, and competing with n-6 PUFAs/n-6 oxylipins in regulating vasodilator release. Critical Issues: Previous studies considered n-3 PUFAs as single molecules with beneficial roles in hypertension. Recently, researchers have paid more attention to the metabolism of n-3 PUFAs and explored molecular mechanisms of n-3 PUFAs and oxylipins derived from n-3 PUFAs in hypertension interventions. Future Directions: Based on the metabolism of n-3 PUFAs/n-3 oxylipins and mechanisms in BP control, we suggested that supplementation of n-3 PUFAs combined with agents targeting PUFA metabolism or the related signal pathways may amplify their effects to treat hypertension and other cardiovascular diseases.

Abstract
Purpose Polymorphisms at the caveolin-1/2 locus are associated with glaucoma and IOP risk and deletion of caveolin-1 (Cav1) in mice elevates IOP and reduces outflow facility. However, the specific location/cell type responsible for Cav1-dependent regulation of IOP is unclear. We hypothesized that endothelial Cav1 in the conventional outflow (CO) pathway regulate IOP via endothelial nitric oxide synthase (eNOS) signaling. Methods We created a mouse with targeted deletion of Cav1 in endothelial cells (Cav1ΔEC) and evaluated IOP, outflow facility, outflow pathway distal vascular morphology, eNOS phosphorylation, and tyrosine nitration of iridocorneal angle tissues by Western blotting. Results Endothelial deletion of Cav1 resulted in significantly elevated IOP versus wild-type mice but not a concomitant decrease in outflow facility. Endothelial Cav1 deficiency did not alter the trabecular meshwork or Schlemm's canal morphology, suggesting that the effects observed were not due to developmental deformities. Endothelial Cav1 deletion resulted in eNOS hyperactivity, modestly increased protein nitration, and significant enlargement of the drainage vessels distal to Schlemm's canal. L-Nitro-arginine methyl ester treatment reduced outflow in Cav1ΔEC but not wild-type mice and had no effect on the size of drainage vessels. Endothelin-1 treatment decrease the outflow and drainage vessel size in both wild-type and Cav1ΔEC mice. Conclusions Our results suggest that hyperactive eNOS signaling in the CO pathway of both Cav1ΔEC and global Cav1 knockout mice results in chronic dilation of distal CO vessels and protein nitration, but that Cav1 expression in the trabecular meshwork is sufficient to rescue CO defects reported in global Cav1 knockout mice.

Bondar A, Jang W, Sviridova E, Lambert NA. Components of the G s signaling cascade exhibit distinct changes in mobility and membrane domain localization upon β 2 -adrenergic receptor activation. Traffic 2021; 21:324-332. [PMID: 32096320 DOI: 10.1111/tra.12724] [Citation(s) in RCA: 6] [Impact Index Per Article: 2.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/06/2019] [Revised: 02/21/2020] [Accepted: 02/21/2020] [Indexed: 12/12/2022]
Abstract
The G protein signaling cascade is a key player in cell signaling. Cascade activation leads to a redistribution of its members in various cellular compartments. These changes are likely related to the "second wave" of signaling from endosomes. Here, we set out to determine whether Gs signaling cascade members expressed at very low levels exhibit altered mobility and localize in clathrin-coated structures (CCSs) or caveolae upon activation by β2 -adrenergic receptors (β2 AR). Activated β2 AR showed decreased mobility and sustained accumulation in CCSs but not in caveolae. Arrestin 3 translocated to the plasma membrane after β2 AR activation and showed very low mobility and pronounced accumulation in CCSs. In contrast, Gαs and Gγ2 exhibited a modest reduction in mobility but no detectable accumulation in or exclusion from CCSs or caveolae. The effector adenylyl cyclase 5 (AC5) showed a slight mobility increase upon β2 AR stimulation, no redistribution to CCSs, and weak activation-independent accumulation in caveolae. Our findings show an overall decrease in the mobility of most activated Gs signaling cascade members and confirm that β2 AR and arrestin 3 accumulate in CCSs, while Gαs , Gγ2 and AC5 can transiently enter CCSs and caveolae but do not accumulate in and are not excluded from these domains.

Lipid Emulsion Enhances Vasoconstriction Induced by Dexmedetomidine in the Isolated Endothelium-Intact Aorta. Int J Mol Sci 2021; 22:ijms22073309.

Abstract
This study aimed to examine the effect of lipid emulsion (LE) on the vasoconstriction induced by dexmedetomidine (DMT) in the isolated rat aorta and elucidate the associated cellular mechanism. The effect of LE, NW-nitro-L-arginine methyl ester (L-NAME), and methyl-β-cyclodextrin (MβCD) on the DMT-induced contraction was examined. We investigated the effect of LE on the DMT-induced cyclic guanosine monophosphate (cGMP) formation and DMT concentration. The effect of DMT, LE, 4-Amino-3-(4-chlorophenyl)-1-(t-butyl)-1H-pyrazolo[3,4-d]pyrimidine,4-Amino-5-(4-chlorophenyl)-7-(t-butyl)pyrazolo[3,4-d]pyrimidine (PP2), and rauwolscine on the phosphorylation of endothelial nitric oxide synthase (eNOS), caveolin-1, and Src kinase was examined in the human umbilical vein endothelial cells. L-NAME, MβCD, and LE (1%, standardized mean difference (SMD): 2.517) increased the DMT-induced contraction in the endothelium-intact rat aorta. LE (1%) decreased the DMT (10−6 M) concentration (SMD: −6.795) and DMT-induced cGMP formation (SMD: −2.132). LE (1%) reversed the DMT-induced eNOS (Ser1177 and Thr496) phosphorylation. PP2 inhibited caveolin-1 and eNOS phosphorylation induced by DMT. DMT increased the Src kinase phosphorylation. Thus, LE (1%) enhanced the DMT-induced contraction by inhibition of NO synthesis, which may be caused by the decreased DMT concentration. DMT-induced NO synthesis may be caused by the increased eNOS (Ser1177) phosphorylation and decreased eNOS (Thr495) phosphorylation potentially mediated by Src kinase-induced caveolin-1 phosphorylation.

Abstract
Leukocytes (neutrophils, monocytes) in the active circulation exhibit multiple phenotypic indicators for a low level of cellular activity, like lack of pseudopods and minimal amounts of activated, cell-adhesive integrins on their surfaces. In contrast, before these cells enter the circulation in the bone marrow or when they recross the endothelium into extravascular tissues of peripheral organs they are fully activated. We review here a multifaceted mechanism mediated by fluid shear stress that can serve to deactivate leukocytes in the circulation. The fluid shear stress controls pseudopod formation via the FPR receptor, the same receptor responsible for pseudopod projection by localized actin polymerization. The bioactivity of macromolecular factors in the blood plasma that interfere with receptor stimulation by fluid flow, such as proteolytic cleavage in the extracellular domain of the receptor or the membrane actions of cholesterol, leads to a defective ability to respond to fluid shear stress by actin depolymerization. The cell reaction to fluid shear involves CD18 integrins, nitric oxide, cGMP and Rho GTPases, is attenuated in the presence of inflammatory mediators and modified by glucocorticoids. The mechanism is abolished in disease models (genetic hypertension and hypercholesterolemia) leading to an increased number of activated leukocytes in the circulation with enhanced microvascular resistance and cell entrapment. In addition to their role in binding to biochemical agonists/antagonists, membrane receptors appear to play a second role: to monitor local fluid shear stress levels. The fluid shear stress control of many circulating cell types such as lymphocytes, stem cells, tumor cells remains to be elucidated.

An inquest into regulatory mechanism of caveolin by ischemic preconditioning against orchidectomy-challenged rat heart. Mol Cell Biochem 2021; 476:2587-2601.

Abstract
Lower level of testosterone in men is related to major risks of cardiovascular diseases. This risk may increase due to the opening of mitochondrial permeability transition pore (mPTP). The mPTP is also regulated by ischemic preconditioning (IPC) and a membrane protein known as caveolin. The cardioprotective effect of IPC is the most effective methodologies used in testosterone deficiency. Daidzein (DDZ) a caveolin inhibitor shows cardioprotective action. The experiment has been designed to evaluate the pretreated DDZ effect in IPC-mediated cardioprotective action in orchidectomy (OCZ)-challenged rat heart. The experiment was designed on male Wistar rats with/without OCZ. The level of testosterone is decreased by OCZ which reduces general body growth. Isolated heart from normal and OCZ rat was tied up on Langendorff's perfused apparatus and followed by ischemic reperfusion (IR) and IPC cycle. To investigate the cardioprotective effect of DDZ in heart with testosterone deficiency, a total of nine groups, each consisting of six rats (n = 6) were as follows: Sham, IR, IPC, IPC + OCZ, IPC + DDZ, IPC + OCZ + DDZ, IPC + sodium nitrite, IPC + OCZ + sodium nitrite, IPC + OCZ + DDZ + sodium nitrite. Hemodynamic parameters, cellular injury (infarct size, LDH, CKMB and cardiac troponin-T), oxidative stress, mitochondrial function, integrity and immunoblot analysis were assessed for each group. The experimental data showed that DDZ potentiated IPC-mediated increase in the heart rate, left ventricular diastolic pressure, coronary flow; + dp/dtmax, and - dp/dtmax. The pretreated DDZ decreases the action of LDH and CKMB, myocyte size, cardiac collagen content, infarct size and ventricular fibrillation and attenuation in oxidative stress and mitochondrial dysfunction in OCZ-challenged rat heart in all sets of experiments. Sodium nitrite, a producer of nitric oxide (NO), enhanced potentiating effects of DDZ on IPC-mediated cardioprotection in OCZ-challenged rats. These observations show that the downregulation of caveolin through impaired opening of mPTP during reperfusion and caveolin might be a potential adjuvant to IPC against cardiac injury in OCZ-challenged rats.

Caveolin-1 promotes radioresistance in rhabdomyosarcoma through increased oxidative stress protection and DNA repair. Cancer Lett 2021; 505:1-12.

Abstract
The aim of this work was to investigate whether Caveolin-1 (Cav-1), a membrane scaffolding protein widely implicated in cancer, may play a role in radiation response in rhabdomyosarcoma (RMS), a pediatric soft tissue tumor. For this purpose, we employed human RD cells in which Cav-1 expression was stably increased via gene transfection. After radiation treatment, we observed that Cav-1 limited cell cycle arrest in the G2/M phase and enhanced resistance to cell senescence and apoptosis via reduction of p21Cip1/Waf1, p16INK4a and Caspase-3 cleavage. After radiotherapy, Cav-1-mediated cell radioresistance was characterized by low accumulation of H2AX foci, as confirmed by Comet assay, marked neutralization of reactive oxygen species (ROS) and enhanced DNA repair via activation of ATM, Ku70/80 complex and DNA-PK. We found that Cav-1-overexpressing RD cells, already under basal conditions, had higher glutathione (GSH) content and greater catalase expression, which conferred protection against acute treatment with hydrogen peroxide. Furthermore, pre-treatment of Cav-1-overexpressing cells with PP2 or LY294002 compounds restored the sensitivity to radiation treatment, indicating a role for Src-kinases and Akt pathways in Cav-1-mediated radioresistance. These findings were confirmed using radioresistant RD and RH30 lines generated by hypofractionated radiotherapy protocol, which showed marked increase of Cav-1, catalase and Akt, and sensitivity to PP2 and LY294002 treatment. In conclusion, these data suggest that concerted activity of Cav-1 and catalase, in cooperation with activation of Src-kinase and Akt pathways, may represent a network of vital mechanisms that allow irradiated RMS cells to evade cell death induced by oxidative stress and DNA damage.

Abstract
Caveolae are bulb-like invaginations made up of two essential structural proteins, caveolin-1 and cavins, which are abundantly present at the plasma membrane of vertebrate cells. Since their discovery more than 60 years ago, the function of caveolae has been mired in controversy. The last decade has seen the characterization of new caveolae components and regulators together with the discovery of additional cellular functions that have shed new light on these enigmatic structures. Early on, caveolae and/or caveolin-1 have been involved in the regulation of several parameters associated with cancer progression such as cell migration, metastasis, angiogenesis, or cell growth. These studies have revealed that caveolin-1 and more recently cavin-1 have a dual role with either a negative or a positive effect on most of these parameters. The recent discovery that caveolae can act as mechanosensors has sparked an array of new studies that have addressed the mechanobiology of caveolae in various cellular functions. This review summarizes the current knowledge on caveolae and their role in cancer development through their activity in membrane tension buffering. We propose that the role of caveolae in cancer has to be revisited through their response to the mechanical forces encountered by cancer cells during tumor mass development.

Abstract
Since the initial reports implicating caveolin-1 (CAV1) in neoplasia, the scientific community has made tremendous strides towards understanding how CAV1-dependent signaling and caveolae assembly modulate solid tumor growth. Once a solid neoplastic tumor reaches a certain size, it will increasingly rely on its stroma to meet the metabolic demands of the rapidly proliferating cancer cells, a limitation typically but not exclusively addressed via the formation of new blood vessels. Landmark studies using xenograft tumor models have highlighted the importance of stromal CAV1 during neoplastic blood vessel growth from preexisting vasculature, a process called angiogenesis, and helped identify endothelium-specific signaling events regulated by CAV1, such as vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) receptors as well as the endothelial nitric oxide (NO) synthase (eNOS) systems. This chapter provides a glimpse into the signaling events modulated by CAV1 and its scaffolding domain (CSD) during endothelial-specific aspects of neoplastic growth, such as vascular permeability, angiogenesis, and mechanotransduction.
