Cross talk of tumor protein D52 (TPD52) with KLF9, PKCε, and MicroRNA 223 in ovarian cancer. J Ovarian Res 2023; 16:202. [PMID: 37833790 PMCID: PMC10571360 DOI: 10.1186/s13048-023-01292-1] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 04/26/2023] [Accepted: 10/02/2023] [Indexed: 10/15/2023] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND Gynecologic cancers comprise malignancies in the female reproductive organs. Ovarian cancer ranks sixth in terms of incidence rates while seventh in terms of mortality rates. The stage at which ovarian cancer is diagnosed mainly determines the survival outcomes of patients. Various screening approaches are presently employed for diagnosing ovarian cancer; however, these techniques have low accuracy and are non-specific, resulting in high mortality rates of patients due to this disease. Hence, it is crucial to identify improved screening and diagnostic markers to overcome this cancer. This study aimed to find new biomarkers to facilitate the prognosis and diagnosis of ovarian cancer. METHODS Bioinformatics approaches were used to predict the tertiary structure and cellular localization along with phylogenetic analysis of TPD52. Its molecular interactions were determined through KEGG analysis, and real-time PCR-based expression analysis was performed to assess its co-expression with another oncogenic cellular pathway (miR-223, KLF9, and PKCε) proteins in ovarian cancer. RESULTS Bioinformatics analysis depicted the cytoplasmic localization of TPD52 and the high conservation of its coiled-coil domains. Further study revealed that TPD52 mRNA and miRNA-223 expression was elevated, while the expression of KLF 9 and PKCε was reduced in the blood of ovarian cancer patients. Furthermore, TPD52 and miR-223 expression were upregulated in the early stages of cancer and non-metastatic cancers. CONCLUSION TPD52, miR-223, PKCε, and KLF9, can be used as a blood based markers for disease prognosis, metastasis, and treatment response. The study outcomes hold great potential to be translated at the clinical level after further validation on larger cohorts.

[PMID: 35666017 PMCID: PMC9844640 DOI: 10.1002/cam4.4911] [Citation(s) in RCA: 2] [Impact Index Per Article: 2.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/19/2021] [Revised: 04/18/2022] [Accepted: 05/25/2022] [Indexed: 01/27/2023] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND The AMP-activated protein kinase (AMPK) is a central regulator of energy homeostasis, with deregulation leading to cancer and other diseases. However, how this pathway is dysregulated in cancer has not been well clarified. METHODS Using a tandem affinity purification/mass-spec technique and biochemical analyses, we identified tumor protein D52 (TPD52) as an AMPKα-interacting molecule. To explore the biological effects of TPD52 in cancers, we conducted biochemical and metabolic assays in vitro and in vivo with cancer cells and TPD52 transgenic mice. Finally, we assessed the clinical significance of TPD52 expression in breast cancer patients using bioinformatics techniques. RESULTS TPD52, initially identified to be overexpressed in many human cancers, was found to form a stable complex with AMPK in cancer cells. TPD52 directly interacts with AMPKα and inhibits AMPKα kinase activity in vitro and in vivo. In TPD52 transgenic mice, overexpression of TPD52 leads to AMPK inhibition and multiple metabolic defects. Clinically, high TPD52 expression predicts poor survival of breast cancer patients. CONCLUSION The findings revealed that TPD52 is a novel regulator of energy stress-induced AMPK activation and cell metabolism. These results shed new light on AMPK regulation and understanding of the etiology of cancers with TPD52 overexpression.

Cardiac ryanodine receptor N-terminal region biosensors identify novel inhibitors via FRET-based high-throughput screening. J Biol Chem 2021; 298:101412. [PMID: 34793835 PMCID: PMC8689225 DOI: 10.1016/j.jbc.2021.101412] [Citation(s) in RCA: 1] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.3] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 02/06/2021] [Revised: 11/08/2021] [Accepted: 11/11/2021] [Indexed: 12/15/2022] Open
Abstract
The N-terminal region (NTR) of ryanodine receptor (RyR) channels is critical for the regulation of Ca2+ release during excitation–contraction (EC) coupling in muscle. The NTR hosts numerous mutations linked to skeletal (RyR1) and cardiac (RyR2) myopathies, highlighting its potential as a therapeutic target. Here, we constructed two biosensors by labeling the mouse RyR2 NTR at domains A, B, and C with FRET pairs. Using fluorescence lifetime (FLT) detection of intramolecular FRET signal, we developed high-throughput screening (HTS) assays with these biosensors to identify small-molecule RyR modulators. We then screened a small validation library and identified several hits. Hits with saturable FRET dose–response profiles and previously unreported effects on RyR were further tested using [3H]ryanodine binding to isolated sarcoplasmic reticulum vesicles to determine effects on intact RyR opening in its natural membrane. We identified three novel inhibitors of both RyR1 and RyR2 and two RyR1-selective inhibitors effective at nanomolar Ca2+. Two of these hits activated RyR1 only at micromolar Ca2+, highlighting them as potential enhancers of excitation–contraction coupling. To determine whether such hits can inhibit RyR leak in muscle, we further focused on one, an FDA-approved natural antibiotic, fusidic acid (FA). In skinned skeletal myofibers and permeabilized cardiomyocytes, FA inhibited RyR leak with no detrimental effect on skeletal myofiber excitation–contraction coupling. However, in intact cardiomyocytes, FA induced arrhythmogenic Ca2+ transients, a cautionary observation for a compound with an otherwise solid safety record. These results indicate that HTS campaigns using the NTR biosensor can identify compounds with therapeutic potential.

Anti-osteosarcoma effect of antiserum against cross antigen TPD52 between osteosarcoma and Trichinella spiralis. Parasit Vectors 2021; 14:498. [PMID: 34565443 PMCID: PMC8474799 DOI: 10.1186/s13071-021-05008-6] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/31/2021] [Accepted: 09/09/2021] [Indexed: 11/10/2022] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND Trichinella spiralis (T. spiralis) is a parasite occurring worldwide that has been proven to have antitumour ability. However, studies on the antitumour effects of cross antigens between the tumour and T. spiralis or antibodies against cross antigens between tumours and T. spiralis are rare. METHODS To study the role of cross antigens between osteosarcoma and T. spiralis, we first screened the cDNA expression library of T. spiralis muscle larvae to obtain the cross antigen gene tumour protein D52 (TPD52), and prepared fusion protein TPD52 and its antiserum. The anti-osteosarcoma effect of the anti-TPD52 antiserum was studied using cell proliferation and cytotoxicity assays as well as in vivo animal models; preliminary data on the mechanism were obtained using western blot and immunohistochemistry analyses. RESULTS Our results indicated that TPD52 was mainly localized in the cytoplasm of MG-63 cells. Anti-TPD52 antiserum inhibited the proliferation of MG-63 cells and the growth of osteosarcoma in a dose-dependent manner. The tumour inhibition rate in the 100 μg treatment group was 61.95%. Enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay showed that injection of anti-TPD52 antiserum increased the serum levels of IFN-γ, TNF-α, and IL-12 in nude mice. Haematoxylin and eosin staining showed that anti-TPD52 antiserum did not cause significant pathological damage. Apoptosis of osteosarcoma cells was induced by anti-TPD52 antiserum in vivo and in vitro. CONCLUSIONS Anti-TPD52 antiserum exerts an anti-osteosarcoma effect by inducing apoptosis without causing histopathological damage.

Abstract
Regulated secretion is a fundamental cellular process in which biologically active molecules stored in long-lasting secretory granules (SGs) are secreted in response to external stimuli. Many studies have described mechanisms responsible for biogenesis and secretion of SGs, but how SGs mature remains poorly understood. In a genetic screen, we discovered a large number of endolysosomal trafficking genes required for proper SG maturation, indicating that maturation of SGs might occur in a manner similar to lysosome-related organelles (LROs). CD63, a tetraspanin known to decorate LROs, also decorates SG membranes and facilitates SG maturation. Moreover, CD63-mediated SG maturation requires type II phosphatidylinositol 4 kinase (PI4KII)-dependent early endosomal sorting and accumulation of phosphatidylinositol 4-phosphate (PI4P) on SG membranes. In addition, the PI4P effector Past1 is needed for formation of stable PI4KII-containing endosomal tubules associated with this process. Our results reveal that maturation of post-Golgi-derived SGs requires trafficking via the endosomal system, similar to mechanisms employed by LROs.

Abstract
BACKGROUND & AIMS Maintaining endoplasmic reticulum (ER) proteostasis is essential for pancreatic acinar cell function. Under conditions of severe ER stress, activation of pathogenic unfolded protein response pathways plays a central role in the development and progression of pancreatitis. Less is known, however, of the consequence of perturbing ER-associated post-translational protein modifications on pancreatic outcomes. Here, we examined the role of the ER acetyl-CoA transporter AT-1 on pancreatic homeostasis. METHODS We used an AT-1S113R/+ hypomorphic mouse model, and generated an inducible, acinar-specific, AT-1 knockout mouse model, and performed histologic and biochemical analyses to probe the effect of AT-1 loss on acinar cell physiology. RESULTS We found that AT-1 expression is down-regulated significantly during both acute and chronic pancreatitis. Furthermore, acinar-specific deletion of AT-1 in acinar cells induces chronic ER stress marked by activation of both the spliced x-box binding protein 1 and protein kinase R-like ER kinase pathways, leading to spontaneous mild/moderate chronic pancreatitis evidenced by accumulation of intracellular trypsin, immune cell infiltration, and fibrosis. Induction of acute-on-chronic pancreatitis in the AT-1 model led to acinar cell loss and glad atrophy. CONCLUSIONS These results indicate a key role for AT-1 in pancreatic acinar cell homeostasis, the unfolded protein response, and that perturbations in AT-1 function leads to pancreatic disease.

Abstract
Primary toxicity targets of alcohol and its metabolites in the pancreas are cellular energetics and endoplasmic reticulum (ER). Therefore, the role of AMP-Activated Protein Kinase (AMPKα) in amelioration of ethanol (EtOH)-induced pancreatic acinar cell injury including ER/oxidative stress, inflammatory responses, the formation of fatty acid ethyl esters (FAEEs) and mitochondrial bioenergetics were determined in human pancreatic acinar cells (hPACs) and AR42J cells incubated with/without AMPKα activator [5-aminoimidazole-4-carboxamide ribonucleotide (AICAR)]. EtOH treated hPACs showed concentration and time-dependent increases for FAEEs and inactivation of AMPKα, along with the upregulation of ACC1 and FAS (key lipogenic proteins) and downregulation of CPT1A (involved β-oxidation of fatty acids). These cells also showed significant ER stress as evidenced by the increased expression for GRP78, IRE1α, and PERK/CHOP arm of unfolded protein response promoting apoptosis and activating p-JNK1/2 and p-ERK1/2 with increased secretion of cytokines. AR42J cells treated with EtOH showed increased oxidative stress, impaired mitochondrial biogenesis, and decreased ATP production rate. However, AMPKα activation by AICAR attenuated EtOH-induced ER/oxidative stress, lipogenesis, and inflammatory responses as well as the formation of FAEEs and restored mitochondrial function in hPACs as well as AR42J cells. Therefore, it is likely that EtOH-induced inactivation of AMPKα plays a crucial role in acinar cell injury leading to pancreatitis. Findings from this study also suggest that EtOH-induced inactivation of AMPKα is closely related to ER/oxidative stress and synthesis of FAEEs, as activation of AMPKα by AICAR attenuates formation of FAEEs, ER/oxidative stress and lipogenesis, and improves inflammatory responses and mitochondrial bioenergetics.

Abstract
Transport of proteins and lipids from one membrane compartment to another is via intracellular vesicles. We investigated the function of tumor protein D54 (TPD54/TPD52L2) and found that TPD54 was involved in multiple membrane trafficking pathways: anterograde traffic, recycling, and Golgi integrity. To understand how TPD54 controls these diverse functions, we used an inducible method to reroute TPD54 to mitochondria. Surprisingly, this manipulation resulted in the capture of many small vesicles (30 nm diameter) at the mitochondrial surface. Super-resolution imaging confirmed the presence of similarly sized TPD54-positive structures under normal conditions. It appears that TPD54 defines a new class of transport vesicle, which we term intracellular nanovesicles (INVs). INVs meet three criteria for functionality. They contain specific cargo, they have certain R-SNAREs for fusion, and they are endowed with a variety of Rab GTPases (16 out of 43 tested). The molecular heterogeneity of INVs and the diverse functions of TPD54 suggest that INVs have various membrane origins and a number of destinations. We propose that INVs are a generic class of transport vesicle that transfer cargo between these varied locations.

Sci Rep 2019; 9:9790. [PMID: 31278300 PMCID: PMC6611826 DOI: 10.1038/s41598-019-46156-1] [Citation(s) in RCA: 4] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.8] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/10/2018] [Accepted: 06/18/2019] [Indexed: 12/27/2022] Open
Abstract
Tumor protein D52 (TPD52) is amplified and overexpressed in breast and prostate cancers which are frequently characterised by dysregulated lipid storage and metabolism. TPD52 expression increases lipid storage in mouse 3T3 fibroblasts, and co-distributes with the Golgi marker GM130 and lipid droplets (LDs). We examined the effects of Brefeldin A (BFA), a fungal metabolite known to disrupt the Golgi structure, in TPD52-expressing 3T3 cells, and in human AU565 and HMC-1-8 breast cancer cells that endogenously express TPD52. Five-hour BFA treatment reduced median LD numbers, but increased LD sizes. TPD52 knockdown decreased both LD sizes and numbers, and blunted BFA's effects on LD numbers. Following BFA treatment for 1-3 hours, TPD52 co-localised with the trans-Golgi network protein syntaxin 6, but after 5 hours BFA treatment, TPD52 showed increased co-localisation with LDs, which was disrupted by microtubule depolymerising agent nocodazole. BFA treatment also increased perilipin (PLIN) family protein PLIN3 but reduced PLIN2 detection at LDs in TPD52-expressing 3T3 cells, with PLIN3 recruitment to LDs preceding that of TPD52. An N-terminally deleted HA-TPD52 mutant (residues 40-184) almost exclusively targeted to LDs in both vehicle and BFA treated cells. In summary, delayed recruitment of TPD52 to LDs suggests that TPD52 participates in a temporal hierarchy of LD-associated proteins that responds to altered LD packaging requirements induced by BFA treatment.

Abstract
Acute pancreatitis (AP) is a potentially lethal inflammatory disease that lacks specific therapy. Damaged pancreatic acinar cells are believed to be the site of AP initiation. The primary function of these cells is the synthesis, storage, and export of digestive enzymes. Beginning in the endoplasmic reticulum and ending with secretion of proteins stored in zymogen granules, distinct pancreatic organelles use ATP produced by mitochondria to move and modify nascent proteins through sequential vesicular compartments. Compartment-specific accessory proteins concentrate cargo and promote vesicular budding, targeting, and fusion. The autophagy-lysosomal-endosomal pathways maintain acinar cell homeostasis by removing damaged/dysfunctional organelles and recycling cell constituents for substrate and energy. Here, we discuss studies in experimental and genetic AP models, primarily from our groups, which show that acinar cell injury is mediated by distinct mechanisms of organelle dysfunction involved in protein synthesis and trafficking, secretion, energy generation, and autophagy. These early AP events (often first manifest by abnormal cytosolic Ca signaling) in the acinar cell trigger the inflammatory and cell death responses of pancreatitis. Manifestations of acinar cell organelle disorders are also prominent in human pancreatitis. Our findings suggest that targeting specific mediators of organelle dysfunction could reduce disease severity.

Abstract
Key features for progression to pancreatic β-cell failure and disease are loss of glucose responsiveness and an increased ratio of secreted proinsulin to insulin. Proinsulin and insulin are stored in secretory granules (SGs) and the fine-tuning of hormone output requires signal mediated recruitment of select SG populations according to intracellular location and age. The GTPase Rac1 coordinates multiple signaling pathways that specify SG release and Rac1 activity is controlled in part by GDP/GTP exchange factors (GEFs). To explore the function of two large multidomain GEFs, Kalirin and Trio in β-cells, we manipulated their Rac1-specific GEF1 domain activity by using small molecule inhibitors and by genetically ablating Kalirin. We examined age related secretory granule behavior employing radiolabeling protocols. Loss of Kalirin/Trio function attenuated radioactive proinsulin release by reducing constitutive-like secretion and exocytosis of 2-hour old granules. At later chase times or at steady state, Kalirin/Trio manipulations decreased glucose stimulated insulin output. Finally, use of a Rac1 FRET biosensor with cultured β-cell lines, demonstrated that Kalirin/Trio GEF1 activity was required for normal rearrangement of Rac1 to the plasma membrane in response to glucose. Rac1 activation can be evoked by both glucose metabolism and signaling through the incretin glucagon-like peptide 1 (GLP-1) receptor. GLP-1 addition restored Rac1 localization/activity and insulin secretion in the absence of Kalirin, thereby assigning Kalirin's participation to stimulatory glucose signaling.

Abstract
Knowledge of the molecular mechanisms of acute pancreatitis is largely based on studies using rodents. To assess similar mechanisms in humans, we performed ex vivo pancreatitis studies in human acini isolated from cadaveric pancreata from organ donors. Because data on these human acinar preparations are sparse, we assessed their functional integrity and cellular and organellar morphology using light, fluorescence, and electron microscopy; and their proteome by liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry. Acinar cell responses to the muscarinic agonist carbachol (CCh) and the bile acid taurolithocholic acid 3-sulfate were also analyzed. Proteomic analysis of acini from donors of diverse ethnicity showed similar profiles of digestive enzymes and proteins involved in translation, secretion, and endolysosomal function. Human acini preferentially expressed the muscarinic acetylcholine receptor M3 and maintained physiological responses to CCh for at least 20 hours. As in rodent acini, human acini exposed to toxic concentrations of CCh and taurolithocholic acid 3-sulfate responded with trypsinogen activation, decreased cell viability, organelle damage manifest by mitochondrial depolarization, disordered autophagy, and pathological endoplasmic reticulum stress. Human acini also secreted inflammatory mediators elevated in acute pancreatitis patients, including IL-6, tumor necrosis factor-α, IL-1β, chemokine (C-C motif) ligands 2 and 3, macrophage inhibitory factor, and chemokines mediating neutrophil and monocyte infiltration. In conclusion, human cadaveric pancreatic acini maintain physiological functions and have similar pathological responses and organellar disorders with pancreatitis-causing treatments as observed in rodent acini.

Abstract
Our previous study showed that TPD52 overexpression could increase migration and proliferation of LNCaP cells contributing to the development of prostate cancer. However, mechanism of TPD52 in prostate cancer initiation and progression remains elusive. In this study, we investigated the possible underlying mechanism of TPD52 in prostate cancer progression. In LNCaP cells, TPD52 expression was altered by transfecting with either EGFP-TPD52 or specific short hairpin RNA. Overexpression of TPD52 protected LNCaP cells from apoptosis through elevated anti-apoptotic proteins XIAP, Bcl-2, and Cyclin D1, whereas Bax was downregulated. Mechanistically, we found that TPD52 confers transactivation of nuclear factor-κB, thereby enhancing its target gene expression in LNCaP cells. TPD52 promotes LNCaP cell invasion probably via increased matrix metalloproteinase 9 expression and its activity while tissue inhibitor of metalloproteinase expression is significantly downregulated. Notably, TPD52 might be involved in cell adhesion, promoting tumor metastasis by inducing loss of E-cadherin, expression of vimentin and vascular cell adhesion molecule, and additionally activation of focal adhesion kinase. Furthermore, TPD52 directly interacts with nuclear factor-κB p65 (RelA) and promotes accumulation of phosphorylated nuclear factor-κB (p65)S536 that is directly linked with nuclear factor-κB transactivation. Indeed, depletion of TPD52 or inhibition of nuclear factor-κB in TPD52-positive cells inhibited secretion of tumor-related cytokines and contributes to the activation of STAT3, nuclear factor-κB, and Akt. Interestingly, in TPD52 overexpressing LNCaP cells, nuclear factor-κB inhibition prevented the autocrine/paracrine activation of STAT3. TPD52 activates STAT3 through ascertaining a cross talk between the nuclear factor-κB and the STAT3 signaling systems. Collectively, these results reveal mechanism by which TPD52 is associated with prostate cancer progression and highlight the approach for therapeutic targeting of TPD52 in prostate cancer.

Abstract
Zymogen secretory granules in pancreatic acinar cells express two vesicle-associated membrane proteins (VAMP), VAMP2 and -8, each controlling 50% of stimulated secretion. Analysis of secretion kinetics identified a first phase (0-2 min) mediated by VAMP2 and second (2-10 min) and third phases (10-30 min) mediated by VAMP8. Induction of acinar pancreatitis by supramaximal cholecystokinin (CCK-8) stimulation inhibits VAMP8-mediated mid- and late-phase but not VAMP2-mediated early-phase secretion. Elevation of cAMP during supramaximal CCK-8 mitigates third-phase secretory inhibition and acinar damage caused by the accumulation of prematurely activated trypsin. VAMP8-/- acini are resistant to secretory inhibition by supramaximal CCK-8, and despite a 4.5-fold increase in total cellular trypsinogen levels, are fully protected from intracellular trypsin accumulation and acinar damage. VAMP8-mediated secretion is dependent on expression of the early endosomal proteins Rab5, D52, and EEA1. Supramaximal CCK-8 (60 min) caused a 60% reduction in the expression of D52 followed by Rab5 and EEA1 in isolated acini and in in vivo The loss of D52 occurred as a consequence of its entry into autophagic vacuoles and was blocked by lysosomal cathepsin B and L inhibition. Accordingly, adenoviral overexpression of Rab5 or D52 enhanced secretion in response to supramaximal CCK-8 and prevented accumulation of activated trypsin. These data support that acute inhibition of VAMP8-mediated secretion during pancreatitis triggers intracellular trypsin accumulation and loss of the early endosomal compartment. Maintaining anterograde endosomal trafficking during pancreatitis maintains VAMP8-dependent secretion, thereby preventing accumulation of activated trypsin.

Abstract
Tumor protein D52 (TPD52) is a member of the TPD52-like protein family and plays different roles in various types of malignancies. However, its role in renal cell carcinoma (RCC) is still unclear. In this study, we investigated the role of TPD52 in RCC. The mechanism of TPD52 in RCC was also investigated. Our data demonstrated that the expression levels of TPD52 in both mRNA and protein were significantly decreased in RCC cells. Overexpression of TPD52 inhibited proliferation, migration, and invasion with decreased epithelial–mesenchymal transition (EMT) phenotype in RCC cells, as well as attenuated tumor growth in renal cancer xenografts. Mechanistically, overexpression of TPD52 significantly inhibited downregulated phosphorylation levels of PI3K and Akt in RCC cells. In conclusion, the present study demonstrated that TPD52 inhibited growth and metastasis of RCC, at least in part, by suppressing the PI3K/Akt signaling pathway. Therefore, these findings suggest that TPD52 may be a promising therapeutic target for the treatment of human RCC.

Abstract
Lipid droplets are essential for both the storage and retrieval of excess cellular nutrients, and their biology is regulated by a diverse range of cellular proteins, some of which function at the lipid droplet. Numerous studies have characterized lipid droplet proteomes in different organisms and cell types, and RNAi whole genome screening studies have examined the genetic regulation of lipid storage in C. elegans and D. melanogaster. While tumor protein D52 (TPD52) did not emerge from earlier studies as a strong candidate, exogenous expression of human TPD52 in cultured cells resulted in significantly increased numbers of lipid droplets, and oleic acid supplementation increased TPD52 detection at both lipid droplets and the Golgi apparatus. These results suggest that direct testing of proteins that are infrequently but recurrently identified in proteomic and RNAi screening studies may identify novel lipid droplet regulators. While the analysis of these possibly lower-abundance or itinerant lipid droplet proteins may be more technically challenging, such proteins could facilitate a more detailed interrogation of emerging aspects of lipid droplet biology.

Abstract
The mechanism responsible for the altered spectrum of tear proteins secreted by lacrimal gland acinar cells (LGAC) in patients with Sjögren's Syndrome (SS) remains unknown. We have previously identified increased cathepsin S (CTSS) activity as a unique characteristic of tears of patients with SS. Here, we investigated the role of Rab3D, Rab27a, and Rab27b proteins in the enhanced release of CTSS from LGAC. Similar to patients with SS and to the male nonobese diabetic (NOD) mouse model of SS, CTSS activity was elevated in tears of mice lacking Rab3D. Findings of lower gene expression and altered localization of Rab3D in NOD LGAC reinforce a role for Rab3D in suppressing excess CTSS release under physiological conditions. However, CTSS activity was significantly reduced in tears of mice lacking Rab27 isoforms. The reliance of CTSS secretion on Rab27 activity was supported by in vitro findings that newly synthesized CTSS was detected in and secreted from Rab27-enriched secretory vesicles and that expression of dominant negative Rab27b reduced carbachol-stimulated secretion of CTSS in cultured LGAC. High-resolution 3D-structured illumination microscopy revealed microdomains of Rab3D and Rab27 isoforms on the same secretory vesicles but present in different proportions on different vesicles, suggesting that changes in their relative association with secretory vesicles may tailor the vesicle contents. We propose that a loss of Rab3D from secretory vesicles, leading to disproportionate Rab27-to-Rab3D activity, may contribute to the enhanced release of CTSS in tears of patients with SS.

Abstract
Tumor protein D52 (TPD52) has been indicated to be involved in tumorigenesis of various malignancies. But its role in hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) is unknown. This study aimed to explore the expression of TPD52 in HCC samples and cell lines using real-time quantitative PCR, western blotting, and immunohistochemistry. The prognostic value of TPD52 in HCC was also analysed. Meanwhile, the mechanism of TPD52 in hepatocarcinogenesis was further investigated by western blotting, immunohistochemistry, over-express and knockdown studies. We found that TPD52 expression was significantly decreased in the HCC tissues and HCC cell lines. TPD52 expression was significantly correlated with tumor-nodes-metastasis (TNM) stage. Kaplan-Meier survival curves showed that high TPD52 expression was associated with improved overall survival (OS) and disease-free survival (DFS) in HCC patients. Multivariate analysis indicated that TPD52 expression was an independent prognostic marker for the OS and DFS of patients. In addition, TPD52 expression was positively correlated with p21 and p53 expression, and was negatively correlated with MDM2, BCL2 and P-GSK-3β expression in HCC. In conclusions, our findings suggested that TPD52 is a potential tumor suppressor in HCC. It may be a novel prognostic biomarker and molecular therapy target for HCC.

Mutations in TRPML1 cause the lysosomal storage disease mucolipidosis type IV (MLIV). The role of TRPML1 in cell function and how the mutations cause the disease are not well understood. Most studies focus on the role of TRPML1 in constitutive membrane trafficking to and from the lysosomes. However, this cannot explain impaired neuromuscular and secretory cells' functions that mediate regulated exocytosis. Here, we analyzed several forms of regulated exocytosis in a mouse model of MLIV and, opposite to expectations, we found enhanced exocytosis in secretory glands due to enlargement of secretory granules in part due to fusion with lysosomes. Preliminary exploration of synaptic vesicle size, spontaneous mEPSCs, and glutamate secretion in neurons provided further evidence for enhanced exocytosis that was rescued by re-expression of TRPML1 in neurons. These features were not observed in Niemann-Pick type C1. These findings suggest that TRPML1 may guard against pathological fusion of lysosomes with secretory organelles and suggest a new approach toward developing treatment for MLIV.

Abstract
BACKGROUND & AIMS Pancreatic acinar cells have an expanded apical endosomal system, the physiological and pathophysiological significance of which is still emerging. Phosphatidylinositol-3,5-bisphosphate (PI(3,5)P2) is an essential phospholipid generated by PIKfyve, which phosphorylates phosphatidylinositol-3-phosphate (PI(3)P). PI(3,5)P2 is necessary for maturation of early endosomes (EE) to late endosomes (LE). Inhibition of EE to LE trafficking enhances anterograde endosomal trafficking and secretion at the plasma membrane by default through a recycling endosome (RE) intermediate. We assessed the effects of modulating PIKfyve activity on apical trafficking and pancreatitis responses in pancreatic acinar cells. METHODS Inhibition of EE to LE trafficking was achieved using pharmacological inhibitors of PIKfyve, expression of dominant negative PIKfyve K1877E, or constitutively active Rab5-GTP Q79L. Anterograde endosomal trafficking was manipulated by expression of constitutively active and dominant negative Rab11a mutants. The effects of these agents on secretion, endolysosomal exocytosis of lysosome associated membrane protein (LAMP1), and trypsinogen activation in response to high-dose CCK-8, bile acids and cigarette toxin was determined. RESULTS PIKfyve inhibition increased basal and stimulated secretion. Adenoviral overexpression of PIKfyve decreased secretion leading to cellular death. Expression of Rab5-GTP Q79L or Rab11a-GTP Q70L enhanced secretion. Conversely, dominant-negative Rab11a-GDP S25N reduced secretion. High-dose CCK inhibited endolysosomal exocytosis that was reversed by PIKfyve inhibition. PIKfyve inhibition blocked intracellular trypsin accumulation and cellular damage responses to high CCK-8, tobacco toxin, and bile salts in both rodent and human acini. CONCLUSIONS These data demonstrate that EE-LE trafficking acutely controls acinar secretion and the intracellular activation of zymogens leading to the pathogenicity of acute pancreatitis.

Rab27A Is Present in Mouse Pancreatic Acinar Cells and Is Required for Digestive Enzyme Secretion. PLoS One 2015; 10:e0125596. [PMID: 25951179 PMCID: PMC4423933 DOI: 10.1371/journal.pone.0125596] [Citation(s) in RCA: 15] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.7] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/08/2014] [Accepted: 03/16/2015] [Indexed: 01/24/2023] Open
Abstract
The small G-protein Rab27A has been shown to regulate the intracellular trafficking of secretory granules in various cell types. However, the presence, subcellular localization and functional impact of Rab27A on digestive enzyme secretion by mouse pancreatic acinar cells are poorly understood. Ashen mice, which lack the expression of Rab27A due to a spontaneous mutation, were used to investigate the function of Rab27A in pancreatic acinar cells. Isolated pancreatic acini were prepared from wild-type or ashen mouse pancreas by collagenase digestion, and CCK- or carbachol-induced amylase secretion was measured. Secretion occurring through the major-regulated secretory pathway, which is characterized by zymogen granules secretion, was visualized by Dextran-Texas Red labeling of exocytotic granules. The minor-regulated secretory pathway, which operates through the endosomal/lysosomal pathway, was characterized by luminal cell surface labeling of lysosomal associated membrane protein 1 (LAMP1). Compared to wild-type, expression of Rab27B was slightly increased in ashen mouse acini, while Rab3D and digestive enzymes (amylase, lipase, chymotrypsin and elastase) were not affected. Localization of Rab27B, Rab3D and amylase by immunofluorescence was similar in both wild-type and ashen acinar cells. The GTP-bound states of Rab27B and Rab3D in wild-type and ashen mouse acini also remained similar in amount. In contrast, acini from ashen mice showed decreased amylase release induced by CCK- or carbachol. Rab27A deficiency reduced the apical cell surface labeling of LAMP1, but did not affect that of Dextran-Texas Red incorporation into the fusion pockets at luminal surface. These results show that Rab27A is present in mouse pancreatic acinar cells and mainly regulates secretion through the minor-regulated pathway.

Abstract
Acinar cell zymogen granules (ZG) express 2 isoforms of the vesicle-associated membrane protein family (VAMP2 and -8) thought to regulate exocytosis. Expression of tetanus toxin to cleave VAMP2 in VAMP8 knock-out (-/-) acini confirmed that VAMP2 and -8 are the primary VAMPs for regulated exocytosis, each contributing ∼50% of the response. Analysis of VAMP8(-/-) acini indicated that although stimulated secretion was significantly reduced, a compensatory increase in constitutive secretion maintained total secretion equivalent to wild type (WT). Using a perifusion system to follow secretion over time revealed VAMP2 mediates an early rapid phase peaking and falling within 2-3 min, whereas VAMP8 controls a second prolonged phase that peaks at 4 min and slowly declines over 20 min to support the protracted secretory response. VAMP8(-/-) acini show increased expression of the endosomal proteins Ti-VAMP7 (2-fold) and Rab11a (4-fold) and their redistribution from endosomes to ZGs. Expression of GDP-trapped Rab11a-S25N inhibited secretion exclusively from the VAMP8 but not the VAMP2 pathway. VAMP8(-/-) acini also showed a >90% decrease in the early endosomal proteins Rab5/D52/EEA1, which control anterograde trafficking in the constitutive-like secretory pathway. In WT acini, short term (14-16 h) culture also results in a >90% decrease in Rab5/D52/EEA1 and a complete loss of the VAMP8 pathway, whereas VAMP2-secretion remains intact. Remarkably, rescue of Rab5/D52/EEA1 expression restored the VAMP8 pathway. Expressed D52 shows extensive colocalization with Rab11a and VAMP8 and partially copurifies with ZG fractions. These results indicate that robust trafficking within the constitutive-like secretory pathway is required for VAMP8- but not VAMP2-mediated ZG exocytosis.

Abstract
The Tumor protein D52 (TPD52) gene was identified nearly 20 years ago through its overexpression in human cancer, and a substantial body of data now strongly supports TPD52 representing a gene amplification target at chromosome 8q21.13. This review updates progress toward understanding the significance of TPD52 overexpression and targeting, both in tumors known to be characterized by TPD52 overexpression/amplification, and those where TPD52 overexpression/amplification has been recently or variably reported. We highlight recent findings supporting microRNA regulation of TPD52 expression in experimental systems and describe progress toward deciphering TPD52's cellular functions, particularly in cancer cells. Finally, we provide an overview of TPD52's potential as a cancer biomarker and immunotherapeutic target. These combined studies highlight the potential value of genes such as TPD52, which are overexpressed in many cancer types, but have been relatively understudied.

Abstract
Protein secretion from acinar cells of the pancreas and parotid glands is controlled by G-protein coupled receptor activation and generation of the cellular messengers Ca(2+), diacylglycerol and cAMP. Secretory granule (SG) exocytosis shares some common characteristics with nerve, neuroendocrine and endocrine cells which are regulated mainly by elevated cell Ca(2+). However, in addition to diverse signaling pathways, acinar cells have large ∼1 μm diameter SGs (∼30 fold larger diameter than synaptic vesicles), respond to stimulation at slower rates (seconds versus milliseconds), demonstrate significant constitutive secretion, and in isolated acini, undergo sequential compound SG-SG exocytosis at the apical membrane. Exocytosis proceeds as an initial rapid phase that peaks and declines over 3 min followed by a prolonged phase that decays to near basal levels over 20-30 min. Studies indicate the early phase is triggered by Ca(2+) and involves the SG proteins VAMP2 (vesicle associated membrane protein2), Ca(2+)-sensing protein synatotagmin 1 (syt1) and the accessory protein complexin 2. The molecular details for regulation of VAMP8-mediated SG exocytosis and the prolonged phase of secretion are still emerging. Here we review the known regulatory molecules that impact the sequential exocytic process of SG tethering, docking, priming and fusion in acinar cells.
