Abstract
Timely in situ imaging and effective treatment are efficient strategies in improving the therapeutic effect and survival rate of tumor patients. In recent years, there has been rapid progress in the development of DNA nanomaterials for tumor in situ imaging and treatment, due to their unsurpassed structural stability, excellent material editability, excellent biocompatibility and individual endocytic pathway. Tetrahedral framework nucleic acids (tFNAs), are a typical example of DNA nanostructures demonstrating superior stability, biocompatibility, cell-entry performance, and flexible drug-loading ability. tFNAs have been shown to be effective in achieving timely tumor in situ imaging and precise treatment. Therefore, the progress in the fabrication, characterization, modification and cellular internalization pathway of tFNAs-based functional systems and their potential in tumor in situ imaging and treatment applications were systematically reviewed in this article. In addition, challenges and future prospects of tFNAs in tumor in situ imaging and treatment as well as potential clinical applications were discussed.

Abstract
Caveolins are a family of transmembrane proteins located in caveolae, small lipid raft invaginations of the plasma membrane. The roles of caveolin-enriched lipid rafts are diverse, and include mechano-protection, lipid homeostasis, metabolism, transport, and cell signaling. Caveolin-1 (Cav-1) and other caveolins were described in endothelial cells and later in other cell types of the central nervous system (CNS), including neurons, astrocytes, oligodendrocytes, microglia, and pericytes. This pancellular presence of caveolins demands a better understanding of their functional roles in each cell type. In this review we describe the various functions of Cav-1 in the cells of normal and pathological brains. Several emerging preclinical findings suggest that Cav-1 could represent a potential therapeutic target in brain disorders.

Abstract
Caveolae are 50-80 nm sized plasma membrane invaginations found in adipocytes, endothelial cells or fibroblasts. They are involved in endocytosis, lipid uptake and the regulation of the cellular lipid metabolism as well as sensing and adapting to changes in plasma membrane tension. Caveolae are characterized by their unique lipid composition and their specific protein coat consisting of caveolin and cavin proteins. Recently, detailed structural information was obtained for the major caveolae protein caveolin1 showing the formation of a disc-like 11-mer protein complex. Furthermore, the importance of the cavin disordered regions in the generation of cavin trimers and caveolae at the plasma membrane were revealed. Thus, finally, structural insights about the assembly of the caveolar coat can be elucidated. Here, we review recent developments in caveolae structural biology with regard to caveolae coat formation and caveolae curvature generation. Secondly, we discuss the importance of specific lipid species necessary for caveolae curvature and formation. In the last years, it was shown that specifically sphingolipids, cholesterol and fatty acids can accumulate in caveolae invaginations and may drive caveolae endocytosis. Throughout, we summarize recent studies in the field and highlight future research directions.

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.

Abstract
Pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC) is characterized by its nutrient-scavenging ability, crucial for tumor progression. Here, we investigated the roles of caveolae-mediated endocytosis (CME) in PDAC progression. Analysis of patient data across diverse datasets revealed a strong association of high caveolin-1 (Cav-1) expression with higher histologic grade, the most aggressive PDAC molecular subtypes, and worse clinical outcomes. Cav-1 loss markedly promoted longer overall and tumor-free survival in a genetically engineered mouse model. Cav-1-deficient tumor cell lines exhibited significantly reduced proliferation, particularly under low nutrient conditions. Supplementing cells with albumin rescued the growth of Cav-1-proficient PDAC cells, but not in Cav-1-deficient PDAC cells under low glutamine conditions. In addition, Cav-1 depletion led to significant metabolic defects, including decreased glycolytic and mitochondrial metabolism, and downstream protein translation signaling pathways. These findings highlight the crucial role of Cav-1 and CME in fueling pancreatic tumorigenesis, sustaining tumor growth, and promoting survival through nutrient scavenging.

Abstract
Desmoglein-2 (DSG2) is a calcium-binding single pass transmembrane glycoprotein and a member of the large cadherin family. Until recently, DSG2 was thought to only function as a cell adhesion protein embedded within desmosome junctions designed to enable cells to better tolerate mechanical stress. However, additional roles for DSG2 outside of desmosomes are continuing to emerge, particularly in cancer. Herein, we review the current literature on DSG2 in cancer and detail its impact on biological functions such as cell adhesion, proliferation, migration, invasion, intracellular signaling, extracellular vesicle release and vasculogenic mimicry. An increased understanding of the diverse repertoire of the biological functions of DSG2 holds promise to exploit this cell surface protein as a potential prognostic biomarker and/or target for better patient outcomes. This review explores the canonical and non-canonical functions of DSG2, as well as the context-dependent impacts of DSG2 in the realm of cancer.

Abstract
In the mid-1950s, a groundbreaking discovery revealed the fascinating presence of caveolae, referred to as flask-shaped invaginations of the plasma membrane, sparking renewed excitement in the field of cell biology. Caveolae are small, flask-shaped invaginations in the cell membrane that play crucial roles in diverse cellular processes, including endocytosis, lipid homeostasis, and signal transduction. The structural stability and functionality of these specialized membrane microdomains are attributed to the coordinated activity of scaffolding proteins, including caveolins and cavins. While caveolae and caveolins have been long appreciated for their integral roles in cellular physiology, the accumulating scientific evidence throughout the years reaffirms their association with a broad spectrum of human disorders. This review article aims to offer a thorough account of the historical advancements in caveolae research, spanning from their initial discovery to the recognition of caveolin family proteins and their intricate contributions to cellular functions. Furthermore, it will examine the consequences of a dysfunctional caveolar network in the development of human diseases.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Intracerebral hemorrhage (ICH) is one of the stroke subtypes with the highest mortality. Secondary brain injury is associated with neurological dysfunction and poor prognosis after ICH. Caveolin-1 (CAV1) is the key protein of Caveolae. Previous studies have shown that CAV1 plays an important role in central nervous system diseases, and pointed out that in a collagenase-induced ICH model in vivo, CAV1 is associated with neuroinflammatory activation and poor neurological prognosis. In this study, we explore the role and the molecular mechanism of CAV1 in brain injury via a rat autologous whole blood injection model and an in vitro model of ICH. METHODS Adult male Sprague-Dawley rats ICH model was induced through autologous whole blood injecting into the right basal ganglia. The changes in protein levels of CAV1 in brain tissues of ICH rats were detected by western blot analysis. The immunofluorescent staining was used to explore the changes of CAV1 in microglia/macrophages (Iba1+ cells). Lentivirus vectors were administered by intracerebroventricular injection to induce CAV1 overexpression and knockdown respectively. The western blot analysis, immunofluorescence staining, enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay, terminal deoxynucleotidyl transferase dUTP nick end labeling and Nissl staining were performed to explore the role of CAV1 in secondary brain injury after ICH. Meanwhile, the rotarod test, foot fault test, adhesive-removal test, and Modified Garcia Test, as well as Morris Water Maze test, were performed to evaluate the behavioral cognitive impairment of ICH rats after genetic intervention. Additionally, BV-2 cells treated with oxygen hemoglobin for 24 h, were used as an in vitro model of ICH in this study to explore the molecular mechanism of CAV1 in brain injury; we performed western blot analysis after precise regulation of CAV1 in BV2 cells to observe changes in protein levels and phosphorylated levels of C-Src, IKK-β, and NF-κB. RESULTS The expression of CAV1 in microglia/macrophages (Iba1+ cells) was elevated and reached the peak at 24 h after ICH. CAV1 knockdown ameliorated ICH-induced neurological deficits, while CAV1 overexpression significantly worsened neurological dysfunction of ICH rats. CAV1 knockdown attenuated cellular apoptosis and promoted neuronal survival in brain tissues of ICH rats, while the ICH rats with CAV1 overexpression presented more cellular apoptosis and neuronal loss. Meanwhile, CAV1 knockdown inhibited the microglia activation and neuroinflammatory response, while CAV1 overexpression abolished these effects and aggravated neuroinflammation in brain tissues of ICH rats. Additionally, by inducing to CAV1 knockdown in BV2 cells in an in vitro model of ICH, the levels of p-C-Src, CAV-1, p-CAV-1, and p-IKK-β in cytoplasm and the level of NF-κB p65 in nucleus of BV2 cells were significantly decreased, while they were increased by inducing to CAV1 overexpression. CONCLUSIONS Our research revealed CAV1 aggravated neurological dysfunction in a rat ICH model. CAV1 knockdown exerted neuroprotective effect by suppressing microglia activation and neuroinflammation after ICH might via the C-Src/CAV1/IKK-β/NF-κB signaling pathway.

Abstract
Caveolae are plasma membrane invaginations with a distinct lipid composition. Membrane lipids cooperate with the structural components of caveolae to generate a metastable surface domain. Recent studies have provided insights into the structure of essential caveolar components and how lipids are crucial for the formation, dynamics, and disassembly of caveolae. They also suggest new models for how caveolins, major structural components of caveolae, insert into membranes and interact with lipids.

Abstract
Glycosylphosphatidylinositol (GPI)-anchored proteins (APs) are anchored at the outer leaflet of plasma membranes (PMs) of all eukaryotic organisms studied so far by covalent linkage to a highly conserved glycolipid rather than a transmembrane domain. Since their first description, experimental data have been accumulating for the capability of GPI-APs to be released from PMs into the surrounding milieu. It became evident that this release results in distinct arrangements of GPI-APs which are compatible with the aqueous milieu upon loss of their GPI anchor by (proteolytic or lipolytic) cleavage or in the course of shielding of the full-length GPI anchor by incorporation into extracellular vesicles, lipoprotein-like particles and (lyso)phospholipid- and cholesterol-harboring micelle-like complexes or by association with GPI-binding proteins or/and other full-length GPI-APs. In mammalian organisms, the (patho)physiological roles of the released GPI-APs in the extracellular environment, such as blood and tissue cells, depend on the molecular mechanisms of their release as well as the cell types and tissues involved, and are controlled by their removal from circulation. This is accomplished by endocytic uptake by liver cells and/or degradation by GPI-specific phospholipase D in order to bypass potential unwanted effects of the released GPI-APs or their transfer from the releasing donor to acceptor cells (which will be reviewed in a forthcoming manuscript).

Kenworthy AK. The building blocks of caveolae revealed: caveolins finally take center stage. Biochem Soc Trans 2023; 51:855-869. [PMID: 37082988 DOI: 10.1042/bst20221298] [Citation(s) in RCA: 1] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 02/06/2023] [Revised: 04/07/2023] [Accepted: 04/14/2023] [Indexed: 04/22/2023]
Abstract
The ability of cells to divide, migrate, relay signals, sense mechanical stimuli, and respond to stress all rely on nanoscale invaginations of the plasma membrane known as caveolae. The caveolins, a family of monotopic membrane proteins, form the inner layer of the caveolar coat. Caveolins have long been implicated in the generation of membrane curvature, in addition to serving as scaffolds for signaling proteins. Until recently, however, the molecular architecture of caveolins was unknown, making it impossible to understand how they operate at a mechanistic level. Over the past year, two independent lines of evidence - experimental and computational - have now converged to provide the first-ever glimpse into the structure of the oligomeric caveolin complexes that function as the building blocks of caveolae. Here, we summarize how these discoveries are transforming our understanding of this long-enigmatic protein family and their role in caveolae assembly and function. We present new models inspired by the structure for how caveolins oligomerize, remodel membranes, interact with their binding partners, and reorganize when mutated. Finally, we discuss emerging insights into structural differences among caveolin family members that enable them to support the proper functions of diverse tissues and organisms.

Abstract
Caveolin-1 (CAV1) is a membrane-sculpting protein that oligomerizes to generate flask-shaped invaginations of the plasma membrane known as caveolae. Mutations in CAV1 have been linked to multiple diseases in humans. Such mutations often interfere with oligomerization and the intracellular trafficking processes required for successful caveolae assembly, but the molecular mechanisms underlying these defects have not been structurally explained. Here, we investigate how a disease-associated mutation in one of the most highly conserved residues in CAV1, P132L, affects CAV1 structure and oligomerization. We show that P132 is positioned at a major site of protomer-protomer interactions within the CAV1 complex, providing a structural explanation for why the mutant protein fails to homo-oligomerize correctly. Using a combination of computational, structural, biochemical, and cell biological approaches, we find that despite its homo-oligomerization defects P132L is capable of forming mixed hetero-oligomeric complexes with WT CAV1 and that these complexes can be incorporated into caveolae. These findings provide insights into the fundamental mechanisms that control the formation of homo- and hetero-oligomers of caveolins that are essential for caveolae biogenesis, as well as how these processes are disrupted in human disease.

Protein Sci 2023; 32:e4582. [PMID: 36718848 PMCID: PMC9942591 DOI: 10.1002/pro.4582] [Citation(s) in RCA: 79] [Impact Index Per Article: 79.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 09/12/2022] [Revised: 01/21/2023] [Accepted: 01/27/2023] [Indexed: 02/01/2023]
Abstract
The ConSurf web-sever for the analysis of proteins, RNA, and DNA provides a quick and accurate estimate of the per-site evolutionary rate among homologues. The analysis reveals functionally important regions, such as catalytic and ligand-binding sites, which often evolve slowly. Since the last report in 2016, ConSurf has been improved in multiple ways. It now has a user-friendly interface that makes it easier to perform the analysis and to visualize the results. Evolutionary rates are calculated based on a set of homologous sequences, collected using hidden Markov model-based search tools, recently embedded in the pipeline. Using these, and following the removal of redundancy, ConSurf assembles a representative set of effective homologues for protein and nucleic acid queries to enable informative analysis of the evolutionary patterns. The analysis is particularly insightful when the evolutionary rates are mapped on the macromolecule structure. In this respect, the availability of AlphaFold model structures of essentially all UniProt proteins makes ConSurf particularly relevant to the research community. The UniProt ID of a query protein with an available AlphaFold model can now be used to start a calculation. Another important improvement is the Python re-implementation of the entire computational pipeline, making it easier to maintain. This Python pipeline is now available for download as a standalone version. We demonstrate some of ConSurf's key capabilities by the analysis of caveolin-1, the main protein of membrane invaginations called caveolae.

Abstract
Paroxysmal nocturnal haemoglobinuria (PNH) is a clonal disorder of haematopoietic stem cells caused by somatic PIGA mutations, resulting in a deficiency in glycosylphosphatidylinositol-anchored proteins (GPI-AP). Some researchers uncovered that PNH cells displayed a GPI-mediated defect in lipid-raft formation. However, Lipid rafts play a crucial role in signaling, the signaling underlying lipid rafts in PNH have not yet been addressed. In this study, we reported that, IFN-α was significantly increased in PNH plasma compared with normal controls. And PNH cells more resistant to the inhibitory colony[1]-forming activity of IFN-α. Here we have already established PIGA knock out K562 cell line by CRISPR/cas9, the most recognized in vitro model of PNH. PNH cells showed obviously defected endocytosis of IFNα/βRs in lipid rafts, causing suppressed STAT2 activation and the inflammatory response. We further investigated the possible mechanisms of interferon signaling endosomes mediate by cavin1. Our findings provide crucial insight into the process of reduced IFNα signal transduction in PNH cells mediated by lipid rafts and suggest that cavin1 are a potential target for suppression of IFN-α inflammatory signaling. These results might further explain the growth advantage of PNH cells in an unfavorable microenvironment.

Abstract
The renin angiotensin system (RAS) plays a major role in blood pressure regulation and electrolyte homeostasis and is mainly composed by two axes mediating opposite effects. The pressor axis, constituted by angiotensin (Ang) II and the Ang II type 1 receptor (AT1R), exerts vasoconstrictor, proliferative, hypertensive, oxidative and pro-inflammatory actions, while the depressor/protective axis, represented by Ang-(1-7), its Mas receptor (MasR) and the Ang II type 2 receptor (AT2R), opposes the actions elicited by the pressor arm. The MasR belongs to the G protein-coupled receptor (GPCR) family. To avoid receptor overstimulation, GPCRs undergo internalization and trafficking into the cell after being stimulated. Then, the receptor may induce other signaling cascades or it may even interact with other receptors, generating distinct biological responses. Thus, control of a GPCR regarding space and time affects the specificity of the signals transduced by the receptor and the ultimate cellular response. The present chapter is focused on the signaling and trafficking pathways of MasR under physiological conditions and its participation in the pathogenesis of numerous brain diseases.

Abstract
Bacteremia induced by periodontal infection is an important factor for periodontitis to threaten general health. P. gingivalis DNA/virulence factors have been found in the brain tissues from patients with Alzheimer's disease (AD). The blood-brain barrier (BBB) is essential for keeping toxic substances from entering brain tissues. However, the effect of P. gingivalis bacteremia on BBB permeability and its underlying mechanism remains unclear. In the present study, rats were injected by tail vein with P. gingivalis three times a week for eight weeks to induce bacteremia. An in vitro BBB model infected with P. gingivalis was also established. We found that the infiltration of Evans blue dye and Albumin protein deposition in the rat brain tissues were increased in the rat brain tissues with P. gingivalis bacteremia and P. gingivalis could pass through the in vitro BBB model. Caveolae were detected after P. gingivalis infection in BMECs both in vivo and in vitro. Caveolin-1 (Cav-1) expression was enhanced after P. gingivalis infection. Downregulation of Cav-1 rescued P. gingivalis-enhanced BMECs permeability. We further found P. gingivalis-gingipain could be colocalized with Cav-1 and the strong hydrogen bonding between Cav-1 and arg-specific-gingipain (RgpA) were detected. Moreover, P. gingivalis significantly inhibited the major facilitator superfamily domain containing 2a (Mfsd2a) expression. Mfsd2a overexpression reversed P. gingivalis-increased BMECs permeability and Cav-1 expression. These results revealed that Mfsd2a/Cav-1 mediated transcytosis is a key pathway governing BBB BMECs permeability induced by P. gingivalis, which may contribute to P. gingivalis/virulence factors entrance and the subsequent neurological impairments.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Lung Ischemia Reperfusion injury(LIRI) is one of the most predominant complications of ischemic lung disease. Cavin-2 emerged as a regulator of a variety of cellular processes, including endocytosis, lipid homeostasis, signal transduction and tumorigenesis, but the function of Cavin-2 in LIRI is unknown. The purpose of this study was to determine the predictive potential of Cavin-2 in protecting lung ischemia-reperfusion injury and its corresponding mechanisms. METHODS We found the strong relationship between Cavin-2 and multiple immune-related genes by deep learning method. To reveal the mechanism of Cavin-2 in LIRI, the LIRI SD rat model was constructed to detect the expression of Cavin-2 in the lung tissue of SD rats after LIRI, and the expression of Cavin-2 in lung cell lines was also detected. The expression of IL-6, IL-10 and MDA in cells after Cavin-2 over-expression or knockdown was examined under hypoxic conditions. The expression levels of p-AKT, p-STAT3 and p-ERK1/2 were measured in over-expressing Cavin-2 cells under hypoxic-ischemia conditions, and then the corresponding blockers of AKT, STAT3 and ERK1/2 were given to verify, whether they play a protective role in LIRI. RESULTS After hypoxia, the expression of Cavin-2 in rat lung tissues was significantly increased, and the cellular activity and IL-10 in Cavin-2 over-expressing cells were significantly higher than that of the control group, while IL-6 and MDA were significantly lower than that of the control group, while the above results were reversed in Cavin-2 knockdown cells; Meanwhile, the phosphorylation levels of AKT, STAT3, and ERK1/2 were significantly increased in Cavin-2 over-expression cells after hypoxia. When AKT, STAT3, and ERK1/2 specific blockers were given, they lost their protective effect against LIRI. CONCLUSIONS Cavin-2 shows biomarker potential in protecting lung from ischemia-reperfusion injury through the survivor activating factor enhancement (SAFE) and reperfusion injury salvage kinase (RISK) pathway.

Abstract
Background and Aims Hypercalciuria is an important predisposing factor commonly found in humans and dogs with calcium oxalate (CaOx) urolithiasis. Calcium oxalate crystals can induce an inflammatory reaction that subsequently produces several proteins that have an inhibitory or stimulatory effect on stone formation. This study aimed to evaluate the differences in urinary proteomic profiles between hypercalciuric CaOx stone dogs and hypercalciuric stone-free dogs (CaOx stone and control groups, respectively). Materials and Methods Seven dogs with hypercalciuric CaOx urolithiasis and breed-, sex-, and aged-matched controls with hypercalciuria were included in the study. Serum and urine samples were obtained from all dogs to analyze electrolytes. Urinary proteomic profiles were analyzed using liquid chromatography-mass spectrometry. Student's t-test was used to compare the differences between groups. Results Forty-nine urinary proteins were identified in the stone-free and CaOx stone groups, whereas 19 and 6 proteins were unique in the CaOx stone and stone-free groups, respectively. The urinary thrombomodulin level was significantly higher in the CaOx stone group (relative ratio = 1.8, p < 0.01) than in the stone-free group. Conclusion This study demonstrated that urinary proteomic profiles may be used as a candidate biomarker for urinary tract injury in CaOx urolithiasis in dogs.

Abstract
Osmoregulation is essential for organisms to adapt to the exterior environment and plays an important role in embryonic organogenesis. Tubular organ formation usually involves a hyperosmotic lumen environment. The mechanisms of how the cells respond and regulate lumen formation remain largely unknown. Here, we reported that the nuclear factor of activated T cells-5 (NFAT5), the only transcription factor in the NFAT family involved in the cellular responses to hypertonic stress, regulated notochord lumen formation in chordate Ciona. Ciona NFAT5 (Ci-NFAT5) was expressed in notochord, and its expression level increased during notochord lumen formation and expansion. Knockout and expression of the dominant negative of NFAT5 in Ciona embryos resulted in the failure of notochord lumen expansion. We further demonstrated that the Ci-NFAT5 transferred from the cytoplasm into nuclei in HeLa cells under the hyperosmotic medium, indicating Ci-NFAT5 can respond the hypertonicity. To reveal the underly mechanisms, we predicted potential downstream genes of Ci-NFAT5 and further validated Ci-NFAT5-interacted genes by the luciferase assay. The results showed that Ci-NFAT5 promoted SLC26A6 expression. Furthermore, expression of a transport inactivity mutant of SLC26A6 (L421P) in notochord led to the failure of lumen expansion, phenocopying that of Ci-NFAT5 knockout. These results suggest that Ci-NFAT5 regulates notochord lumen expansion via the SLC26A6 axis. Taken together, our results reveal that the chordate NFAT5 responds to hypertonic stress and regulates lumen osmotic pressure via an ion channel pathway on luminal organ formation.

Abstract
Caveolins are an unusual family of membrane proteins whose primary biological function is to build small invaginated membrane structures at the surface of cells known as caveolae. Caveolins and caveolae regulate numerous signaling pathways, lipid homeostasis, intracellular transport, cell adhesion, and cell migration. They also serve as sensors and protect the plasma membrane from mechanical stress. Despite their many important functions, the molecular basis for how these 50-100 nm "little caves" are assembled and regulate cell physiology has perplexed researchers for 70 years. One major impediment to progress has been the lack of information about the structure of caveolin complexes that serve as building blocks for the assembly of caveolae. Excitingly, recent advances have finally begun to shed light on this long-standing question. In this review, we highlight new developments in our understanding of the structure of caveolin oligomers, including the landmark discovery of the molecular architecture of caveolin-1 complexes using cryo-electron microscopy.

Endothelial caveolin-1 regulates cerebral thrombo-inflammation in acute ischemia/reperfusion injury. EBioMedicine 2022; 84:104275. [PMID: 36152520 PMCID: PMC9508414 DOI: 10.1016/j.ebiom.2022.104275] [Citation(s) in RCA: 19] [Impact Index Per Article: 9.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/08/2022] [Revised: 09/05/2022] [Accepted: 09/05/2022] [Indexed: 01/05/2023] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND Thrombo-inflammation is an important checkpoint that orchestrates infarct development in ischemic stroke. However, the underlying mechanism remains largely unknown. Here, we explored the role of endothelial Caveolin-1 (Cav-1) in cerebral thrombo-inflammation. METHODS The correlation between serum Cav-1 level and clinical outcome was analyzed in acute ischemic stroke patients with successful recanalization. Genetic manipulations by endothelial-specific adeno-associated virus (AAV) and siRNA were applied to investigate the effects of Cav-1 in thrombo-inflammation in a transient middle cerebral artery occlusion (tMCAO) model. Thrombo-inflammation was analyzed by microthrombosis formation, myeloid cell infiltration, and endothelial expression of adhesion molecules as well as inflammatory factors. FINDINGS Reduced circulating Cav-1, with the potential to predict microembolic signals, was more frequently detected in recanalized stroke patients without early neurological improvement. At 24 h after tMCAO, serum Cav-1 was consistently reduced in mice. Endothelial Cav-1 was decreased in the peri-infarct region. Cav-1-/- endothelium, with prominent barrier disruption, displayed extensive microthrombosis, accompanied by increased myeloid cell inflammatory infiltration after tMCAO. Specific enhanced expression of endothelial Cav-1 by AAV-Tie1-Cav-1 remarkably reduced infarct volume, attenuated vascular hyper-permeability and alleviated thrombo-inflammation in both wild-type and Cav-1-/- tMCAO mice. Transcriptome analysis after tMCAO further designated Rxrg as the most significantly changed molecule resulting from the knockdown of Cav-1. Supplementation of RXR-γ siRNA reversed AAV-Tie1-Cav-1-induced amelioration of thrombo-inflammation without affecting endothelial tight junction. INTERPRETATION Endothelial Cav-1/RXR-γ may regulate infarct volume and neurological impairment, possibly through selectively controlling thrombo-inflammation coupling, in cerebral ischemia/reperfusion.

Abstract
Stem-like tumor cells of ascites carcinoma Krebs-2 and Epstein-Barr virus–induced B-lymphoma were shown to possess the innate capability of binding and internalizing the TAMRA-labeled double-stranded DNA (dsDNA) probe. The process of binding and internalizing is rather complicated and composed of the following successive stages: 1) initiating electrostatic interaction and contact of a negatively charged dsDNA molecule with a positively charged molecule(s) on the surface of a stem-like tumor cell; 2) binding of the dsDNA probe to a tumor stem cell surface protein(s) via the formation of a strong chemical/molecular bond; and 3) the very internalization of dsDNA into the cell. Binding of DNA to cell surface proteins is determined by the presence of heparin/polyanion-binding sites within the protein structure, which can be competitively blocked by heparin and/or dextran sulfate, wherein heparin blocks only the binding, while dextran sulfate abrogates both binding and internalization. The abrogation of internalization by dextran sulfate implies the role of scavenger receptors in this process. Cells were shown to uptake DNA in amounts constituting ∼0.008% of the haploid genome. Inhibitors of caveolae-dependent internalization abrogate the DNA uptake in Krebs-2 cells, and inhibitors of the clathrin/caveolar mechanism block the internalization in B-lymphoma cells. In the present report, it is shown for the first time that in contrast to the majority of committed tumor cells, stem-like tumor cells of Krebs-2 and B-lymphoma carry a general positive charge on their surface.

Abstract
Ca2+-activated Cl- (ClCa) channels regulate membrane excitability and myogenic tone in vascular smooth muscles. TMEM16A-coding proteins are mainly responsible for functional ClCa channels in vascular smooth muscles, including portal vein smooth muscles (PVSMs). Caveolae are cholesterol-rich and Ω-shaped invaginations on the plasma membrane that structurally contributes to effective and efficient signal transduction. Caveolin 1 (Cav1) accumulates in caveolae to form functional complexes among receptors, ion channels, and kinases. The present study examined the functional roles of Cav1 in the expression and activity of ClCa channels in the portal vein smooth muscle cells (PVSMCs) of wild-type (WT) and Cav1-knockout (KO) mice. Contractile experiments revealed that the amplitude of spontaneous PVSM contractions was larger in Cav1-KO mice than WT mice. Under whole-cell patch-clamp configurations, ClCa currents were markedly inhibited by 1 μM Ani9 (a selective TMEM16A ClCa channel blocker) in WT and Cav1-KO PVSMCs. However, Ani9-sensitive ClCa currents were significantly larger in Cav1-KO PVSMCs than in WT PVSMCs. Expression analyses showed that TMEM16A expression levels were higher in Cav1-KO PVSMs than in WT PVSMs. Therefore, the caveolar structure formed by Cav1 negatively regulates the expression and activity of TMEM16A-mediated ClCa channels in vascular smooth muscle cells.

Abstract
Caveolae are cholesterol-enriched membrane invaginations linked to severe muscle and lipid disorders. Their formation is dependent on assembly of the protein Cavin1 at the lipid membrane interface driving membrane curvature. In this work, we dissect the mechanism for how Cavin1 binds and inserts into membranes using a combination of biochemical and biophysical characterization as well as computational modeling. The proposed model for membrane assembly potentiates dynamic switching between shielded and exposed hydrophobic helices used for membrane insertion and clarifies how Cavin1 can drive membrane curvature and the formation of caveolae. Caveolae are small plasma membrane invaginations, important for control of membrane tension, signaling cascades, and lipid sorting. The caveola coat protein Cavin1 is essential for shaping such high curvature membrane structures. Yet, a mechanistic understanding of how Cavin1 assembles at the membrane interface is lacking. Here, we used model membranes combined with biophysical dissection and computational modeling to show that Cavin1 inserts into membranes. We establish that initial phosphatidylinositol (4, 5) bisphosphate [PI(4,5)P2]–dependent membrane adsorption of the trimeric helical region 1 (HR1) of Cavin1 mediates the subsequent partial separation and membrane insertion of the individual helices. Insertion kinetics of HR1 is further enhanced by the presence of flanking negatively charged disordered regions, which was found important for the coassembly of Cavin1 with Caveolin1 in living cells. We propose that this intricate mechanism potentiates membrane curvature generation and facilitates dynamic rounds of assembly and disassembly of Cavin1 at the membrane.

Abstract
Mitochondria buffer cytosolic Ca2+increases following Ca2+ influx from extracellular spaces and Ca2+ release from intracellular Ca2+ store sites under physiological circumstances. Therefore, close contact of mitochondria with the sarcoplasmic reticulum (SR) is required for maintaining Ca2+ homeostasis. Mitofusin 2 (Mfn2) localizes in both mitochondrial and SR membranes, and is hypothesized to optimize the distance and Ca2+ transfer between these organelles. However, the physiological significance of Mfn2 in vascular smooth muscle cells (VSMCs) is poorly understood. In the present study, the role of Mfn2 in the physical and functional couplings between SR and mitochondria was examined in rat aortic smooth muscle cells (rASMCs) by confocal and electron microscope imaging. When Mfn2 was knocked-down using siRNA in rASMCs, the mean distance between these organelles was extended from 16.2 to 21.6 nm. The increase in the cytosolic Ca2+ concentration ([Ca2+]cyt) induced by 100 nM arginine vasopressin (AVP) was not affected by Mfn2 siRNA knockdown, whereas cytosolic Ca2+ removal was slower after Mfn2 knockdown. Following the AVP-induced [Ca2+]cyt increase, mitochondrial Ca2+ uptake and Ca2+ refill into the SR were attenuated by Mfn2 knockdown. In addition, Mfn2-knockdown cells exhibited a loss of mitochondrial membrane potential (ΔΨmito) and lower ATP levels in mitochondria. Moreover, Mfn2 knockdown inhibited cell proliferation. In contrast, Mfn2 overexpression increased ΔΨmito and cell growth. This study strongly suggests that Mfn2 is responsible for SR-mitochondria Ca2+ signaling by tethering mitochondria to SR, thereby regulating ATP production and proliferation of VSMCs.

Abstract
Membrane-sculpting proteins shape the morphology of cell membranes and facilitate remodeling in response to physiological and environmental cues. Complexes of the monotopic membrane protein caveolin function as essential curvature-generating components of caveolae, flask-shaped invaginations that sense and respond to plasma membrane tension. However, the structural basis for caveolin's membrane remodeling activity is currently unknown. Here, we show that, using cryo-electron microscopy, the human caveolin-1 complex is composed of 11 protomers organized into a tightly packed disc with a flat membrane-embedded surface. The structural insights suggest a previously unrecognized mechanism for how membrane-sculpting proteins interact with membranes and reveal how key regions of caveolin-1, including its scaffolding, oligomerization, and intramembrane domains, contribute to its function.

Biophys J 2022; 121:1643-1659. [PMID: 35378081 PMCID: PMC9117929 DOI: 10.1016/j.bpj.2022.04.001] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 06/18/2021] [Revised: 02/09/2022] [Accepted: 03/31/2022] [Indexed: 11/21/2022] Open
Abstract
Caveola membrane structures harbor mechanosensitive chloride channels (MCCs; including chloride channel 2, chloride channel 3, and SWELL1, also known as LRRC8A) that form a swelling-activated chloride current (ICl,swell) and play an important role in cell volume regulation and mechanoelectrical signal transduction. However, the role of the muscle-specific caveolar scaffolding protein caveolin-3 (Cav3) in regulation of MCC expression, activity, and contribution to membrane integrity in response to mechanical stress remains unclear. Here we showed that Cav3-transfected (Cav3-positive) HEK293 cells were significantly resistant to extreme (<20 milliosmole) hypotonic swelling compared with native (Cav3-negative) HEK293 cells; the percentage of cells with membrane damage decreased from 45% in Cav3-negative cells to 17% in Cav3-positive cells (p < 0.05). This mechanoprotection was significantly reduced (p < 0.05) when cells were exposed to the ICl,swell-selective inhibitor 4-[(2-butyl-6,7-dichloro-2-cyclopentyl-2,3-dihydro-1-oxo-1H-inden-5-yl)oxy]butanoic acid (10 μM). These results were recapitulated in isolated mouse ventricular myocytes, where the percentage of cardiomyocytes with membrane damage increased from 47% in control cells to 78% in 4-[(2-butyl-6,7-dichloro-2-cyclopentyl-2,3-dihydro-1-oxo-1H-inden-5-yl)oxy]butanoic acid-treated cells (p < 0.05). A higher resistance to hypotonic swelling in Cav3-positive HEK293 cells was accompanied by a significant twofold increase of ICl,swell current density and SWELL1 protein expression, whereas ClC-2/3 protein levels remained unchanged. Förster resonance energy transfer analysis showed a less than 10-nm membrane and intracellular association between Cav3 and SWELL1. Cav3/SWELL1 membrane Förster resonance energy transfer efficiency was halved in mild (220 milliosmole) hypotonic solution as well as after disruption of caveola structures via cholesterol depletion by 1-h treatment with 10 mM methyl-β-cyclodextrin. A close association between Cav3 and SWELL1 was confirmed by co-immunoprecipitation analysis. Our findings indicate that, in the MCCs tested, SWELL1 abundance and activity are regulated by Cav3 and that their association relies on membrane tension and caveola integrity. This study highlights the mechanoprotective role of Cav3, which is facilitated by complimentary SWELL1 expression and activity.

Abstract
Background Microlbuminuria is the earliest clinical evidence of diabetic kidney disease (DKD) and contributes to the induction and/or progression of DKD. Previous studies have shown that increased expression of angiopoietin2 (ANGPT2) is correlated with an increase in albuminuria. However, the critical role of ANGPT2 in albuminuria development remains unclear. Some studies have shown the significance of transcytosis in the occurrence of albuminuria, but it is unknown whether it takes place in albumin recycling in renal tubular cells of patients with DKD. Furthermore, the potential mechanism of this association also remains unclear. Methods In this study, human renal tubular epithelial cells (HK-2) were cultured with high glucose in a Transwell plate to establish a transcytosis model, while C57BL/6 mice were intraperitoneally injected with streptozotocin to establish a DKD model. The expression of ANGPT2 and caveolin1 (CAV1) phosphorylation was dectected through immunohistochemistry and western blot analysis. Results Transcytosis of albumin in renal tubular epithelial cells was downregulated after high glucose exposure, and increased expression of ANGPT2 and CAV1 phosphorylation both in vivo and in vitro was observed. Inhibition of ANGPT2 and CAV1 independently promoted transcytosis. Furthermore, ANGPT2 downregulation inhibited CAV1 phosphorylation, whereas CAV1 phosphorylation had no effect on the expression of ANGPT2. Conclusions ANGPT2 reduces albumin transcytosis across renal tubular epithelial cells under high glucose conditions by activating CAV1 phosphorylation, thus increasing albuminuria in DKD. These findings suggested that ANGPT2 and CAV1 may be promising therapeutic targets for albuminuria in DKD.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Cerebral small vessel injury, including loss of endothelial tight junctions, endothelial dysfunction, and blood-brain barrier breakdown, is an early and typical pathology for Alzheimer disease, cerebral amyloid angiopathy, and hypertension-related cerebral small vessel disease. Whether there is a common mechanism contributing to these cerebrovascular alterations remains unclear. Studies have shown an elevation of BACE1 (β-site amyloid precursor protein cleaving enzyme 1) in cerebral vessels from cerebral amyloid angiopathy or Alzheimer disease patients, suggesting that vascular BACE1 may involve in cerebral small vessel injury. METHODS To understand the contribution of vascular BACE1 to cerebrovascular impairments, we combined cellular and molecular techniques, mass spectrometry, immunostaining approaches, and functional testing to elucidate the potential pathological mechanisms. RESULTS We observe a 3.71-fold increase in BACE1 expression in the cerebral microvessels from patients with hypertension. Importantly, we discover that an endothelial tight junction protein, occludin, is a completely new substrate for endothelial BACE1. BACE1 cleaves occludin with full-length occludin reductions and occludin fragment productions. An excessive cleavage by elevated BACE1 induces membranal accumulation of caveolin-1 and subsequent caveolin-1-mediated endocytosis, resulting in lysosomal degradation of other tight junction proteins. Meanwhile, membranal caveolin-1 increases the binding to eNOS (endothelial nitric oxide synthase), together with raised circulating Aβ (β-amyloid peptides) produced by elevated BACE1, leading to an attenuation of eNOS activity and resultant endothelial dysfunction. Furthermore, the initial endothelial damage provokes chronic reduction of cerebral blood flow, blood-brain barrier leakage, microbleeds, tau hyperphosphorylation, synaptic loss, and cognitive impairment in endothelial-specific BACE1 transgenic mice. Conversely, inhibition of aberrant BACE1 activity ameliorates tight junction loss, endothelial dysfunction, and memory deficits. CONCLUSIONS Our findings establish a novel and direct relationship between endothelial BACE1 and cerebral small vessel damage, indicating that abnormal elevation of endothelial BACE1 is a new mechanism for cerebral small vessel disease pathogenesis.

Abstract
Idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis (IPF) is a fatal disease characterized by an excess deposition of extracellular matrix in the pulmonary interstitium. Caveolin-1 scaffolding domain peptide (CSP) has been found to mitigate pulmonary fibrosis in several animal models. However, its pathophysiological role in IPF is obscure, and it remains critical to understand the mechanism by which CSP protects against pulmonary fibrosis. We first studied the delivery of CSP into cells and found that it is internalized and accumulated in the Endoplasmic Reticulum (ER). Furthermore, CSP reduced ER stress via suppression of inositol requiring enzyme1α (IRE1α) in transforming growth factor β (TGFβ)-treated human IPF lung fibroblasts (hIPF-Lfs). Moreover, we found that CSP enhanced the gelatinolytic activity of TGFβ-treated hIPF-Lfs. The IRE1α inhibitor; 4µ8C also augmented the gelatinolytic activity of TGFβ-treated hIPF-Lfs, supporting the concept that CSP induced inhibition of the IRE1α pathway. Furthermore, CSP significantly elevated expression of MMPs in TGFβ-treated hIPF-Lfs, but conversely decreased the secretion of collagen 1. Similar results were observed in two preclinical murine models of PF, bleomycin (BLM)- and adenovirus expressing constitutively active TGFβ (Ad-TGFβ)-induced PF. Our findings provide new insights into the mechanism by which lung fibroblasts contribute to CSP dependent protection against lung fibrosis.

Abstract
Several cytoskeleton proteins interact with raft proteins to form raft-cytoskeleton binding protein complexes (RCPCs) that control cell migration and adhesion. The purpose of this paper is to review the latest research on the modes and mechanisms by which a RCPC controls different cellular functions. This paper discusses RCPC composition and its role in cytoskeleton reorganization, as well as the latest developments in molecular mechanisms that regulate cell adhesion and migration under normal conditions. In addition, the role of some external stimuli (such as stress and chemical signals) in this process is further debated, and meanwhile potential mechanisms for RCPC to regulate lipid raft fluidity is proposed. Thus, this review mainly contributes to the understanding of RCPC signal transduction in cells. Additionally, the targeted signal transduction of RCPC and its mechanism connection with cell behaviors will provide a logical basis for the development of unified interventions to combat metastasis related dysfunction and diseases.

Abstract
The kidney is an energy-consuming organ, and cellular metabolism plays an indispensable role in kidney-related diseases. Caveolin-1 (Cav-1), a multifunctional membrane protein, is the main component of caveolae on the plasma membrane. Caveolae are represented by tiny invaginations that are abundant on the plasma membrane and that serve as a platform to regulate cellular endocytosis, stress responses, and signal transduction. However, caveolae have received increasing attention as a metabolic platform that mediates the endocytosis of albumin, cholesterol, and glucose, participates in cellular metabolic reprogramming and is involved in the progression of kidney disease. It is worth noting that caveolae mainly depend on Cav-1 to perform the abovementioned cellular functions. Furthermore, the mechanism by which Cav-1 regulates cellular metabolism and participates in the pathophysiology of kidney diseases has not been completely elucidated. In this review, we introduce the structure and function of Cav-1 and its functions in regulating cellular metabolism, autophagy, and oxidative stress, focusing on the relationship between Cav-1 in cellular metabolism and kidney disease; in addition, Cav-1 that serves as a potential therapeutic target for treatment of kidney disease is also described.

Abstract
Excessive deposition of extracellular matrix, mainly collagen protein, is the hallmark of organ fibrosis. The molecular mechanisms regulating fibrotic protein biosynthesis are unclear. Here, we find that chemoattractant receptor homologous molecule expressed on TH2 cells (CRTH2), a plasma membrane receptor for prostaglandin D2, is trafficked to the endoplasmic reticulum (ER) membrane in fibroblasts in a caveolin-1-dependent manner. ER-anchored CRTH2 binds the collagen mRNA recognition motif of La ribonucleoprotein domain family member 6 (LARP6) and promotes the degradation of collagen mRNA in these cells. In line, CRTH2 deficiency increases collagen biosynthesis in fibroblasts and exacerbates injury-induced organ fibrosis in mice, which can be rescued by LARP6 depletion. Administration of CRTH2 N-terminal peptide reduces collagen production by binding to LARP6. Similar to CRTH2, bumetanide binds the LARP6 mRNA recognition motif, suppresses collagen biosynthesis, and alleviates bleomycin-triggered pulmonary fibrosis in vivo. These findings reveal a novel anti-fibrotic function of CRTH2 in the ER membrane via the interaction with LARP6, which may represent a therapeutic target for fibrotic diseases.

Compartmentalization of phosphatidylinositol 4,5-bisphosphate metabolism into plasma membrane liquid-ordered/raft domains. Proc Natl Acad Sci U S A 2021; 118:2025343118.

Abstract
Possible segregation of plasma membrane (PM) phosphoinositide metabolism in membrane lipid domains is not fully understood. We exploited two differently lipidated peptide sequences, L10 and S15, to mark liquid-ordered, cholesterol-rich (Lo) and liquid-disordered, cholesterol-poor (Ld) domains of the PM, often called raft and nonraft domains, respectively. Imaging of the fluorescent labels verified that L10 segregated into cholesterol-rich Lo phases of cooled giant plasma-membrane vesicles (GPMVs), whereas S15 and the dye FAST DiI cosegregated into cholesterol-poor Ld phases. The fluorescent protein markers were used as Förster resonance energy transfer (FRET) pairs in intact cells. An increase of homologous FRET between L10 probes showed that depleting membrane cholesterol shrank Lo domains and enlarged Ld domains, whereas a decrease of L10 FRET showed that adding more cholesterol enlarged Lo and shrank Ld Heterologous FRET signals between the lipid domain probes and phosphoinositide marker proteins suggested that phosphatidylinositol 4,5-bisphosphate [PtdIns(4,5)P 2] and phosphatidylinositol 4-phosphate (PtdIns4P) are present in both Lo and Ld domains. In kinetic analysis, muscarinic-receptor-activated phospholipase C (PLC) depleted PtdIns(4,5)P 2 and PtdIns4P more rapidly and produced diacylglycerol (DAG) more rapidly in Lo than in Ld Further, PtdIns(4,5)P 2 was restored more rapidly in Lo than in Ld Thus destruction and restoration of PtdIns(4,5)P 2 are faster in Lo than in Ld This suggests that Lo is enriched with both the receptor G protein/PLC pathway and the PtdIns/PI4-kinase/PtdIns4P pathway. The significant kinetic differences of lipid depletion and restoration also mean that exchange of lipids between these domains is much slower than free diffusion predicts.

Abstract
Cholesterol is an essential component of the mammalian plasma membrane involved in diverse cellular processes. Our recent quantitative imaging analysis using ratiometric cholesterol sensors showed that the available cholesterol concentration in the inner leaflet of the plasma membrane (IPM) is low in unstimulated cells and increased in a stimulus-specific manner to trigger cell signaling events. However, the transbilayer distribution of cholesterol in the plasma membrane of mammalian cells remains controversial. Here we report a systematic and rigorous evaluation of basal IPM cholesterol levels in a wide range of mammalian cells with different properties employing cholesterol sensors derived from the D4 domain of the Perfringolysin O toxin and a sterol-transfer protein, Osh4. Results consistently showed that, although basal IPM cholesterol levels vary significantly among cells, they remain significantly lower than cholesterol levels in the outer leaflets. We found that IPM cholesterol levels were particularly low in all tested primary cells. These results support the universality of the low basal IPM cholesterol concentration under physiological conditions. We also report here the presence of sequestered IPM cholesterol pools, which may become available to cytosolic proteins under certain physiological conditions. We hypothesize that these pools may partly account for the low basal level of available IPM cholesterol. In conclusion, we provide new experimental data that confirm the asymmetric transbilayer distribution of the plasma membrane cholesterol, which may contribute to regulation of various cellular signaling processes at the plasma membrane.

The RNA-binding protein HuR regulates intestinal epithelial restitution by modulating Caveolin-1 gene expression. Biochem J 2021; 478:247-260.

Abstract
The integrity of the intestinal mucosal barrier protects hosts against pathological conditions. Early mucosal restitution after wounding refers to epithelial cell migration into a defect. The RNA-binding protein HuR plays an important role in the posttranscriptional regulation of gene expression and is involved in many aspects of cellular physiology. In the present study, we investigated the role of HuR in the regulation of cell migration through the posttranscriptional regulation of Caveolin-1 (Cav-1). Online software was used to identify Cav-1 mRNA as a potential target of HuR. The interaction of HuR with Cav-1 mRNA was investigated via ribonucleoprotein immunoprecipitation (RNP IP) assays and biotin pulldown analysis. HuR was found to bind specifically to the Cav-1 3'-UTR rather than the coding region or 5'-UTR. Transfection of cells with siHuR decreased both HuR protein levels and Cav-1 protein levels; conversely, ectopic overexpression of HuR via infection of cells with an adenoviral vector containing HuR cDNA (AdHuR) increased Cav-1 protein levels without disturbing Cav-1 mRNA levels. Thus, HuR enhanced Cav-1 expression in vitro by stimulating Cav-1 translation. Intestinal epithelium-specific HuR knockout in mice decreased Cav-1 protein levels without changing Cav-1 mRNA levels, consistent with the in vitro results. Decreasing the levels of HuR via siHuR transfection inhibited early epithelial repair, but this effect was reversed by ectopic overexpression of GFP-tagged Cav-1. These results indicate that posttranscriptional regulation of Cav-1 gene expression by HuR plays a critical role in the regulation of rapid epithelial repair after wounding.

Effect of Verapamil, an L-Type Calcium Channel Inhibitor, on Caveolin-3 Expression in Septic Mouse Hearts. OXIDATIVE MEDICINE AND CELLULAR LONGEVITY 2021; 2021:6667074.

Abstract
Sepsis-induced myocardial dysfunction considerably increases mortality risk in patients with sepsis. Previous studies from our group have shown that sepsis alters the expression of structural proteins in cardiac cells, resulting in cardiomyocyte degeneration and impaired communication between cardiac cells. Caveolin-3 (CAV3) is a structural protein present in caveolae, located in the membrane of cardiac muscle cells, which regulates physiological processes such as calcium homeostasis. In sepsis, there is a disruption of calcium homeostasis, which increases the concentration of intracellular calcium, which can lead to the activation of potent cellular enzymes/proteases which cause severe cellular injury and death. The purpose of the present study was to test the hypotheses that sepsis induces CAV3 overexpression in the heart, and the regulation of L-type calcium channels directly relates to the regulation of CAV3 expression. Severe sepsis increases the expression of CAV3 in the heart, as immunostaining in our study showed CAV3 presence in the cardiomyocyte membrane and cytoplasm, in comparison with our control groups (without sepsis) that showed CAV3 presence predominantly in the plasma membrane. The administration of verapamil, an L-type calcium channel inhibitor, resulted in a decrease in mortality rates of septic mice. This effect was accompanied by a reduction in the expression of CAV3 and attenuation of cardiac lesions in septic mice treated with verapamil. Our results indicate that CAV3 has a vital role in cardiac dysfunction development in sepsis and that the regulation of L-type calcium channels may be related to its expression.

Abstract
BK virus infections which usually remains asymptomatic in healthy adults may have different clinical manifestations in immunocompromised patient population. BK virus reactivation can cause BK virus nephropathy in 8% of kidney transplant patients and graft loss may be seen if not treated. Clathrin or Caveolar system is known to be required for the transport of many viruses from Polyomaviruses family including BK viruses. In this study, kidney transplant patients with BK virus viremia were divided into two groups according to the BK virus nephropathy found in kidney biopsy (Group I: Viremia+, Nephropathy+ / Group II: Viremia+, Nephropathy-). Kidney biopsies were examined with immunohistochemical staining to determine the distribution and density of the Caveolin-1 and Clathrin molecules. Immunohistochemical staining of the 31 pathologic specimens with anti-caveolin-1 immunoglobulin revealed statistically significant difference between group-I and group-II. The number of the specimens stained with anti-caveolin-1 was less in group I. On the other hand, we did not find any difference between the groups regarding the anti-clathrin immunochemical analysis. According to these findings, caveolin-1 expression differences in kidney transplant patients may be important in disease progression.

Abstract
Caveolae are spherically shaped nanodomains of the plasma membrane, generated by cooperative assembly of caveolin and cavin proteins. Cavins are cytosolic peripheral membrane proteins with negatively charged intrinsically disordered regions that flank positively charged α-helical regions. Here, we show that the three disordered domains of Cavin1 are essential for caveola formation and dynamic trafficking of caveolae. Electrostatic interactions between disordered regions and α-helical regions promote liquid-liquid phase separation behaviour of Cavin1 in vitro, assembly of Cavin1 oligomers in solution, generation of membrane curvature, association with caveolin-1, and Cavin1 recruitment to caveolae in cells. Removal of the first disordered region causes irreversible gel formation in vitro and results in aberrant caveola trafficking through the endosomal system. We propose a model for caveola assembly whereby fuzzy electrostatic interactions between Cavin1 and caveolin-1 proteins, combined with membrane lipid interactions, are required to generate membrane curvature and a metastable caveola coat.

Abstract
Angiotensin II (AngII) is a key mediator of the renin-angiotensin system and plays an important role in the regulation of cardiac electrophysiology by affecting various cardiac ion currents, including transient outward potassium current, Ito. AngII receptors and molecular components of Ito, Kv4.2 and Kv4.3 channels, have been linked to caveolae structures. However, their functional interaction and the importance of such proximity within 50- to 100-nm caveolar nanodomains remain unknown. To address this, we studied the mechanisms of Ito regulation by AngII in atrial myocytes of wild-type (WT) and cardiac-specific caveolin-3 (Cav3) conditional knockout (Cav3KO) mice. We showed that in WT atrial myocytes, a short-term (2 h) treatment with AngII (5 µM) significantly reduced Ito density. This effect was prevented 1) by a 30-min pretreatment with a selective antagonist of AngII receptor 1 (Ang1R) losartan (2 µM) or 2) by a selective inhibition of protein kinase C (PKC) by BIM1 (10 µM). The effect of AngII on Ito was completely abolished in Cav3-KO mice, with no change in a baseline Ito current density. In WT atria, Ang1Rs co-localized with Cav3, and the expression of Ang1Rs was significantly decreased in Cav3KO in comparison with WT mice, whereas no change in Kv4.2 and Kv4.3 protein expression was observed. Overall, our findings demonstrate that Cav3 is involved in the regulation of Ang1R expression and is required for the modulation of Ito by AngII in mouse atrial myocytes.NEW & NOTEWORTHY Angiotensin II receptor 1 is associated with caveolae and caveolar scaffolding protein caveolin-3 in mouse atrial myocytes that is required for the regulation of Ito by angiotensin II. Downregulation of caveolae/caveolin-3 disrupts this regulation and may be implicated in pathophysiological atrial remodeling.

Abstract
Nanosecond pulsed electric fields (nsPEFs) induce changes in the plasma membrane (PM), including PM permeabilization (termed nanoporation), allowing free passage of ions into the cell and, in certain cases, cell death. Recent studies from our laboratory show that the composition of the PM is a critical determinant of PM nanoporation. Thus, we hypothesized that the biological response to nsPEF exposure could be influenced by lipid microdomains, including caveolae, which are specialized invaginations of the PM that are enriched in cholesterol and contain aggregates of important cell signaling proteins, such as caveolin-1 (Cav1). Caveolae play a significant role in cellular signal transduction, including control of calcium influx and cell death by interaction of Cav1 with regulatory signaling proteins. Present results show that depletion of Cav1 increased the influx of calcium, while Cav1 overexpression produced the opposite effect. Additionally, Cav1 is known to bind and sequester important cell signaling proteins within caveolae, rendering the binding partners inactive. Imaging of the PM after nsPEF exposure showed localized depletion of PM Cav1 and results of co-immunoprecipitation studies showed dissociation of two critical Cav1 binding partners (transient receptor potential cation channel subfamily C1 (TRPC1) and inositol trisphosphate receptor (IP3R)) after exposure to nsPEFs. Release of TRPC1 and IP3R from Cav1 would activate downstream signaling cascades, including store-operated calcium entry, which could explain the influx in calcium after nsPEF exposure. Results of the current study establish a significant relationship between Cav1 and the activation of cell signaling pathways in response to nsPEFs.

Abstract
Highly stable oligomeric complexes of the monotopic membrane protein caveolin serve as fundamental building blocks of caveolae. Current evidence suggests these complexes are disc shaped, but the details of their structural organization and how they assemble are poorly understood. Here, we address these questions using single particle electron microscopy of negatively stained recombinant 8S complexes of human caveolin 1. We show that 8S complexes are toroidal structures ~15 nm in diameter that consist of an outer ring, an inner ring, and central protruding stalk. Moreover, we map the position of the N and C termini and determine their role in complex assembly, and visualize the 8S complexes in heterologous caveolae. Our findings provide critical insights into the structural features of 8S complexes and allow us to propose a model for how these highly stable membrane-embedded complexes are generated.

Abstract
The renal dopaminergic system has been identified as a modulator of sodium balance and blood pressure. According to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, in 2018 in the United States, almost half a million deaths included hypertension as a primary or contributing cause. Renal dopamine receptors, members of the G protein-coupled receptor family, are divided in two groups: D1-like receptors that act to keep the blood pressure in the normal range, and D2-like receptors with a variable effect on blood pressure, depending on volume status. The renal dopamine receptor function is regulated, in part, by its expression in microdomains in the plasma membrane. Lipid rafts form platforms within the plasma membrane for the organization and dynamic contact of molecules involved in numerous cellular processes such as ligand binding, membrane sorting, effector specificity, and signal transduction. Understanding all the components of lipid rafts, their interaction with renal dopamine receptors, and their signaling process offers an opportunity to unravel potential treatment targets that could halt the progression of hypertension, chronic kidney disease (CKD), and their complications.

Abstract
Caveolae are membrane microdomains described in many cell types involved in endocytocis, transcytosis, cell signaling, mechanotransduction, and aging. They are found at the interface with the extracellular environment and are structured by caveolin and cavin proteins. Caveolae and caveolins mediate transduction of chemical messages via signaling pathways, as well as non-chemical messages, such as stretching or shear stress. Various pathogens or signals can hijack these gates, leading to infectious, oncogenic and even caveolin-related diseases named caveolinopathies. By contrast, preclinical and clinical research have fallen behind in their attempts to hijack caveolae and caveolins for therapeutic purposes. Caveolae involvement in human disease is not yet fully explored or understood and, of all their scaffold proteins, only caveolin-1 is being considered in clinical trials as a possible biomarker of disease. This review briefly summarizes current knowledge about caveolae cell signaling and raises the hypothesis whether these microdomains could serve as hijackable “gatekeepers” or “gateways” in cell communication. Furthermore, because cell signaling is one of the most dynamic domains in translating data from basic to clinical research, we pay special attention to translation of caveolae, caveolin, and cavin research into clinical practice.

Abstract
Oxidized LDLs (oxLDLs) and oxysterols play a key role in endothelial dysfunction and the development of atherosclerosis. The loss of vascular endothelium function negatively impacts vasomotion, cell growth, adhesiveness and barrier functions. While for some of these disturbances, a reasonable explanation can be provided from a mechanistic standpoint, for many others, the molecular mediators that are involved are unknown. Caveolae, specific plasma membrane domains, have recently emerged as targets and mediators of oxLDL-induced endothelial dysfunction. Caveolae and their associated protein caveolin-1 (Cav-1) are involved in oxLDLs/LDLs transcytosis, mainly through the scavenger receptor class B type 1 (SR-B1 or SCARB1). In contrast, oxLDLs endocytosis is mediated by the lectin-like oxidized LDL receptor 1 (LOX-1), whose activity depends on an intact caveolae system. In addition, LOX-1 regulates the expression of Cav-1 and vice versa. On the other hand, oxLDLs may affect cholesterol plasma membrane content/distribution thus influencing caveolae architecture, Cav-1 localization and the associated signalling. Overall, the evidence indicate that caveolae have both active and passive roles in oxLDL-induced endothelial cell dysfunction. First, as mediators of lipid uptake and transfer in the subendothelial space and, later, as targets of changes in composition/dynamics of plasma membrane lipids resulting from increased levels of circulating oxLDLs. Gaining a better understanding of how oxLDLs interact with endothelial cells and modulate caveolae-mediated signalling pathways, leading to endothelial dysfunction, is crucial to find new targets for intervention to tackle atherosclerosis and the related clinical entities.

Dietary α-Linolenic Acid Counters Cardioprotective Dysfunction in Diabetic Mice: Unconventional PUFA Protection. Nutrients 2020; 12:nu12092679.

Abstract
Whether dietary omega-3 (n-3) polyunsaturated fatty acid (PUFA) confers cardiac benefit in cardiometabolic disorders is unclear. We test whether dietary -linolenic acid (ALA) enhances myocardial resistance to ischemia-reperfusion (I-R) and responses to ischemic preconditioning (IPC) in type 2 diabetes (T2D); and involvement of conventional PUFA-dependent mechanisms (caveolins/cavins, kinase signaling, mitochondrial function, and inflammation). Eight-week male C57Bl/6 mice received streptozotocin (75 mg/kg) and 21 weeks high-fat/high-carbohydrate feeding. Half received ALA over six weeks. Responses to I-R/IPC were assessed in perfused hearts. Localization and expression of caveolins/cavins, protein kinase B (AKT), and glycogen synthase kinase-3 β (GSK3β); mitochondrial function; and inflammatory mediators were assessed. ALA reduced circulating leptin, without affecting body weight, glycemic dysfunction, or cholesterol. While I-R tolerance was unaltered, paradoxical injury with IPC was reversed to cardioprotection with ALA. However, post-ischemic apoptosis (nucleosome content) appeared unchanged. Benefit was not associated with shifts in localization or expression of caveolins/cavins, p-AKT, p-GSK3β, or mitochondrial function. Despite mixed inflammatory mediator changes, tumor necrosis factor-a (TNF-a) was markedly reduced. Data collectively reveal a novel impact of ALA on cardioprotective dysfunction in T2D mice, unrelated to caveolins/cavins, mitochondrial, or stress kinase modulation. Although evidence suggests inflammatory involvement, the basis of this "un-conventional" protection remains to be identified.

Abstract
Relation between the renal function and the membrane environment where the organic anion transporters Oat1 and Oat3 are localized is scarce. The aim of this study was to examine the Oat1 and Oat3 distribution in different cellular fractions under physiological conditions as well as the effects of extrahepatic cholestasis on membrane distribution of both proteins. Besides, the potential role of jaundice serum on the Oat1 and Oat3 expression in suspensions of renal tubular cells was evaluated. Cellular and membrane fractions of renal cortex were obtained from control rats to evaluate Oat1 and Oat3 protein expressions. Other rats were subjected to bile duct ligation (BDL) or Sham operation to determine the membrane distribution of Oat1 and Oat3 between lipid raft domains (LRD) and non-LRD. Incubation of renal cortical cells with serum from Sham and BDL were also performed to study Oat1 and Oat3 protein expressions. In physiological conditions, Oat1 and Oat3 were concentrated in LRD. The pathology induced a shift of Oat1 from LRD to non-LRD, while Oat3 showed no changes in its distribution. In cells exposed to BDL serum, Oat1 protein expression in membranes significantly increased. For Oat3, no difference between groups was observed. The Oat1 redistribution to non-LRD in BDL could be favoring the increase in renal transport of organic anions previously observed. This change was specific to Oat1. The in vitro experiment allows to conclude that some component present in BDL serum is responsible for the alterations observed in Oat1 expression in cortical membranes.
