Coactosin-like protein 1 regulates integrity and repair of model intestinal epithelial barriers via actin binding dependent and independent mechanisms. Front Cell Dev Biol 2024; 12:1405454. [PMID: 39040043 PMCID: PMC11260685 DOI: 10.3389/fcell.2024.1405454] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/22/2024] [Accepted: 06/24/2024] [Indexed: 07/24/2024] Open
Abstract
The actin cytoskeleton regulates the integrity and repair of epithelial barriers by mediating the assembly of tight junctions (TJs), and adherens junctions (AJs), and driving epithelial wound healing. Actin filaments undergo a constant turnover guided by numerous actin-binding proteins, however, the roles of actin filament dynamics in regulating intestinal epithelial barrier integrity and repair remain poorly understood. Coactosin-like protein 1 (COTL1) is a member of the ADF/cofilin homology domain protein superfamily that binds and stabilizes actin filaments. COTL1 is essential for neuronal and cancer cell migration, however, its functions in epithelia remain unknown. The goal of this study is to investigate the roles of COTL1 in regulating the structure, permeability, and repair of the epithelial barrier in human intestinal epithelial cells (IEC). COTL1 was found to be enriched at apical junctions in polarized IEC monolayers in vitro. The knockdown of COTL1 in IEC significantly increased paracellular permeability, impaired the steady state TJ and AJ integrity, and attenuated junctional reassembly in a calcium-switch model. Consistently, downregulation of COTL1 expression in Drosophila melanogaster increased gut permeability. Loss of COTL1 attenuated collective IEC migration and decreased cell-matrix attachment. The observed junctional abnormalities in COTL1-depleted IEC were accompanied by the impaired assembly of the cortical actomyosin cytoskeleton. Overexpression of either wild-type COTL1 or its actin-binding deficient mutant tightened the paracellular barrier and activated junction-associated myosin II. Furthermore, the actin-uncoupled COTL1 mutant inhibited epithelial migration and matrix attachment. These findings highlight COTL1 as a novel regulator of the intestinal epithelial barrier integrity and repair.

Abstract
Enveloped viruses assemble and bud from the host cell membranes. Any role of cortical actin in these processes have often been a source of debate. Here, we assessed if cortical actin was involved in HIV-1 assembly in infected CD4 T lymphocytes. Our results show that preventing actin branching not only increases HIV-1 particle release but also the number of individual HIV-1 Gag assembly clusters at the T cell plasma membrane. Indeed, in infected T lymphocytes and in in vitro quantitative model systems, we show that HIV-1 Gag protein prefers areas deficient in F-actin for assembling. Finally, we found that the host factor Arpin, an inhibitor of Arp2/3 branched actin, is recruited at the membrane of infected T cells and it can associate with the viral Gag protein. Altogether, our data show that, for virus assembly and particle release, HIV-1 prefers low density of cortical actin and may favor local actin debranching by subverting Arpin.

BURNS & TRAUMA 2023; 11:tkad038. [PMID: 37849945 PMCID: PMC10578047 DOI: 10.1093/burnst/tkad038] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Figures] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/12/2023] [Revised: 04/28/2023] [Accepted: 05/25/2023] [Indexed: 10/19/2023]
Abstract
Background The rapid turnover of the intestinal epithelium is driven by the proliferation and differentiation of intestinal stem cells (ISCs). The dynamics of the F-actin cytoskeleton are critical for maintaining intercellular force and the signal transduction network. However, it remains unclear how direct interference with actin polymerization impacts ISC homeostasis. This study aims to reveal the regulatory effects of the F-actin cytoskeleton on the homeostasis of intestinal epithelium, as well as the potential risks of benproperine (BPP) as an anti-tumor drug. Methods Phalloidin fluorescence staining was utilized to test F-actin polymerization. Flow cytometry and IHC staining were employed to discriminate different types of intestinal epithelial cells. Cell proliferation was assessed through bromo-deoxyuridine (BrdU) and 5-ethynyl-2'-deoxyuridine (EdU) incorporation assays. The proliferation and differentiation of intestinal stem cells were replicated in vitro through organoid culture. Epithelial migration was evaluated through BrdU pulse labeling and chasing in mice. Results The F-actin content was observed to significantly increase as crypt cells migrated into the villus region. Additionally, actin polymerization in secretory cells, especially in Paneth cells (PCs), was much higher than that in neighboring ISCs. Treatment with the newly identified actin-related protein 2/3 complex subunit 2 (ARPC2) inhibitor BPP led to a dose-dependent increase or inhibition of intestinal organoid growth in vitro and crypt cell proliferation in vivo. Compared with the vehicle group, BPP treatment decreased the expression of Lgr5 ISC feature genes in vivo and in organoid culture. Meanwhile, PC differentiation derived from ISCs and progenitors was decreased by inhibition of F-actin polymerization. Mechanistically, BPP-induced actin polymerization inhibition may activate the Yes1-associated transcriptional regulator pathway, which affects ISC proliferation and differentiation. Accordingly, BPP treatment affected intestinal epithelial cell migration in a dose-dependent manner. Conclusion Our findings indicate that the regulation of cytoskeleton reorganization can affect ISC homeostasis. In addition, inhibiting ARPC2 with the Food and Drug Administration-approved drug BPP represents a novel approach to influencing the turnover of intestinal epithelial cells.

Abstract
Fu brick tea theabrownin (FBTB) is a kind of biomacromolecule produced by oxidative polymerization of tea polyphenols. Although a variety of diseases can be alleviated by TB, its ability to treat ulcerative colitis (UC) is still worth exploring. A dextran sulfate sodium (DSS)-induced chronic UC mouse model was designed to first explore the alleviatory effect of FBTB on UC and its underlying mechanism by the sequencing of fecal 16S rRNA genes, metabolomics, and fecal microbiota transplantation (FMT). Administration of FBTB at 400 mg/kg bw in DSS-damaged mice could effectively reduce colonic damage and inflammation and improve colonic antioxidant capacity to relieve the UC-caused symptoms. FBTB could correct the disrupted gut microbiota caused by UC and contribute to the proliferation of Lactobacillus and Parasutterella. FMT in combination with antibiotic treatment showed that FBTB could elevate the levels of microbial tryptophan metabolites, including indole-3-acetaldehyde (IAld) and indole-3-acetic acid (IAA), by selectively promoting the growth of Lactobacillus. Importantly, FBTB-elevated IAld and IAA could activate aromatic hydrocarbon receptors (AhRs) and enhance interleukin-22 production to repair the intestinal barrier. These findings demonstrated that FBTB alleviated UC mainly by targeting the gut microbiota involved in the AhR pathway for prophylactic and therapeutic treatment of UC.

Abstract
Distant metastasis is the main cause of mortality in breast cancer patients. Using the breast cancer genomic data from The Cancer Genome Atlas (TCGA), we identified brain specific Cav2.2 as a critical regulator of metastasis. Cav2.2 expression is significantly upregulated in breast cancer and its higher expression is inversely correlated with survival suggesting a previously unappreciated role of Cav2.2 in breast cancer. Cav2.2 is required for breast cancer migration, invasion, and metastasis. Interestingly, Cav2.2 promotes invadopodia formation and extracellular matrix (ECM) degradation through the stabilization of invadopodia component cortactin in a proteosome-dependent manner. Moreover, deubiquitinating enzyme USP43 mediated the functions of Cav2.2 in cortactin stabilization, invadopodia formation, ECM degradation, and metastasis. Interestingly, Cav2.2 upregulates USP43 expression through NFAT2 dephosphorylation and nuclear localization. Our study uncovered a novel pathway that regulates cortactin expression and invadopodia formation in breast cancer metastasis.

Abstract
Ulcerative colitis (UC), a long-term inflammation of the colon, is a worldwide disease. Accumulating reports have suggested the contribution of environmental pollutants to UC development. As such, the identification of biomarkers to evaluate pollutant-induced UC could provide a better assessment on the world's pollution problem. In the present study, we applied the plasma proteome to profile the plasma protein changes in three models: dextran sulfate sodium (DSS)-induced colitis, bisphenol A (BPA), and BPA-severe colitis. We aimed to investigate the functional roles of plasma proteins related to colitis development and further understand the synergistic effect of BPA on colitis. In addition, we aimed to identify novel biomarkers for UC non-invasive diagnosis and assessment of BPA-induced colitis. Our results showed a significant dysregulation of plasma proteins in these three models. Bioinformatics analysis, including gene ontology, Kyoto Encyclopedia of Genes and Genomes pathway enrichment analysis, and Ingenuity Pathway Analysis, highlighted the important effects of these dysregulated plasma proteins in immune and inflammatory responses through the regulation of CCR3 signaling in eosinophils, PI3K signaling in B lymphocytes, CD28 signaling in T helper cells, and leukocyte extravasation signaling in DSS-induced colitis model. Furthermore, our data suggested that BPA exposure altered the plasma proteins involved in lipid-related metabolic processes, leukocyte cell-cell adhesion and cytokine response. More importantly, we identified plasma proteins, ALB, APOA4, C3, CFB, DPEP1, HP, LTF, and Retnlg as biomarkers for assessing BPA-induced colitis.

Abstract
Research on the influence of gut microbiota on systemic inflammatory arthritis has exploded in the past decade. Gut microbiota changes may be a crucial regulatory component in systemic inflammatory arthritis. As a result of advancements in the field, microbiota-assisted therapy has evolved, but this discipline is still in its infancy. Consequently, we review the limitations of current systemic inflammatory arthritis treatment, analyze the connection between the microbiota and arthritis, and summarize the research progress of microbiota regulating systemic inflammatory arthritis and the further development aspects of microbiota-assisted therapy. Finally, the partial mechanisms of microbiota-assisted therapy of systemic inflammatory arthritis are being discussed. In general, this review summarizes the current progress, challenges, and prospects of microbiota-assisted therapy for systemic inflammatory arthritis and points out the direction for the development of microbiota-assisted therapy in the future.

Abstract
Epithelia are sheets of cells that communicate and coordinate their behavior in order to ensure their barrier function. Among the plethora of proteins involved in epithelial dynamics, actin nucleators play an essential role. The branched actin nucleation complex Arp2/3 has numerous functions, such as the regulation of cell-cell adhesion, intracellular trafficking, the formation of protrusions, that have been well described at the level of individual cells. Here, we chose to focus on its role in epithelial tissue, which is rising attention in recent works. We discuss how the cellular activities of the Arp2/3 complex drive epithelial dynamics and/or tissue morphogenesis. In the first part, we examined how this complex influences cell-cell cooperation at local scale in processes such as cell-cell fusion or cell corpses engulfment. In the second part, we summarized recent papers dealing with the impact of the Arp2/3 complex at larger scale, focusing on different morphogenetic events, including cell intercalation, epithelial tissue closure and epithelial folding. Altogether, this review highlights the central role of Arp2/3 in a diversity of epithelial tissue reorganization.

Abstract
Neutrophil extracellular trap (NET) formation is a key feature in sepsis. The aim of the present study was to examine the role of the actin cytoskeleton in regulating the expulsion of NETs. Actin-related protein 2/3 (Arp 2/3) complex is an important regulator of F-actin polymerization. Co-incubation with CK666, a specific Arp 2/3 inhibitor, decreased PMA-induced NET formation in vitro. CK666 not only abolished F-actin polymerization but also caused intracellular retention of NETs. Inhibition of Arp 2/3 reduced NET formation on circulating neutrophils and in the bronchoalveolar space in mice undergoing cecal ligation and puncture (CLP). Notably, treatment with CK666 attenuated CLP-induced neutrophil recruitment, edema formation and tissue damage in the lungs. Moreover, Arp 2/3 inhibition decreased levels of CXCL-1 and interleukin-6 in the lung and plasma of septic animals. Taken together, this study shows that expulsion of NETs is regulated by the actin cytoskeleton and that inhibition of Arp 2/3-dependent F-actin polymerization not only decrease NET formation but also protect against pathological inflammation and tissue damage in septic lung injury. Thus, we suggest that targeting NET release is a novel and useful way to ameliorate lung damage in abdominal sepsis.
