Identification of the interactome of the DP1 receptor for Prostaglandin D 2: Regulation of DP1 receptor signaling and trafficking by IQGAP1. Biochim Biophys Acta Gen Subj 2021; 1865:129969. [PMID: 34352343 DOI: 10.1016/j.bbagen.2021.129969] [Citation(s) in RCA: 4] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.3] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/26/2020] [Revised: 07/19/2021] [Accepted: 07/25/2021] [Indexed: 01/16/2023]
Abstract
BACKGROUND Mechanisms governing localization, trafficking and signaling of G protein-coupled receptors (GPCRs) are critical in cell function. Protein-protein interactions are determinant in these processes. However, there are very little interacting proteins known to date for the DP1 receptor for prostaglandin D2. METHODS We performed LC-MS/MS analyses of the DP1 receptor interactome in HEK293 cells. To functionally validate our LC-MS/MS data, we studied the implications of the interaction with the IQGAP1 scaffold protein in the trafficking and signaling of DP1. RESULTS In addition to expected interacting proteins such as heterotrimeric G protein subunits, we identified proteins involved in signaling, trafficking, and folding localized in various cell compartments. Endogenous DP1-IQGAP1 co-immunoprecipitation was observed in colon cancer HT-29 cells. The interaction was augmented by DP1 agonist activation in HEK293 cells and GST-pulldown assays showed that IQGAP1 binds to intracellular loops 2 and 3 of DP1. Co-localization of the two proteins was observed by confocal microscopy at the cell periphery and in intracellular vesicles in the basal state. PGD2 treatment resulted in the redistribution of the DP1-IQGAP1 co-localization in the perinuclear vicinity. DP1 receptor internalization was promoted by overexpression of IQGAP1, while it was diminished by IQGAP1 knockdown with DsiRNAs. DP1-mediated ERK1/2 activation was augmented and sustained overtime by overexpression of IQGAP1 when compared to DP1 expressed alone. IQGAP1 knockdown decreased ERK1/2 activation by DP1 stimulation. Interestingly, ERK1/2 signaling by DP1 was increased when IQGAP2 was silenced, while it was impaired by IQGAP3 knockdown. CONCLUSIONS Our findings define the putative DP1 interactome, a patho-physiologically important receptor, and validated the interaction with IQGAP1 in DP1 function. Our data also reveal that IQGAP proteins may differentially regulate GPCR signaling. GENERAL SIGNIFICANCE The identified putative DP1-interacting proteins open multiple lines of research in DP1 and GPCR biology in various cell compartments.

Abstract
A host of novel renal biomarkers have been developed over the past few decades which have enhanced monitoring of renal disease and drug-induced kidney injury in both preclinical studies and in humans. Since chronic kidney disease (CKD) and acute kidney injury (AKI) share similar underlying mechanisms and the tubulointerstitial compartment has a functional role in the progression of CKD, urinary biomarkers of AKI may provide predictive information in chronic renal disease. Numerous studies have explored whether the recent AKI biomarkers could improve upon the standard clinical biomarkers, estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR), and urinary albumin to creatinine ratio, for predicting outcomes in CKD patients. This review is an introduction to alternative assays that can be utilized in chronic (>3 months duration) nonclinical safety studies to provide information on renal dysfunction and to demonstrate specific situations where these assays could be utilized in nonclinical drug development. Novel biomarkers such as symmetrical dimethyl arginine, dickkopf homolog 3, and cystatin C predict chronic renal injury in animals, act as surrogates for GFR, and may predict changes in GFR in patients over time, ultimately providing a bridge from preclinical to clinical renal monitoring.

Abstract
Accumulating evidence indicates that G protein-coupled receptors (GPCRs) interact with Rab GTPases during their intracellular trafficking. How GPCRs recruit and activate the Rabs is unclear. Here, we report that depletion of endogenous L-type prostaglandin D synthase (L-PGDS) in HeLa cells inhibited recycling of the prostaglandin D2 (PGD2) DP1 receptor (DP1) to the cell surface after agonist-induced internalization and that L-PGDS overexpression had the opposite effect. Depletion of endogenous Rab4 prevented l-PGDS-mediated recycling of DP1, and l-PGDS depletion inhibited Rab4-dependent recycling of DP1, indicating that both proteins are mutually involved in this pathway. DP1 stimulation promoted its interaction through its intracellular C terminus with Rab4, which was increased by l-PGDS. Confocal microscopy revealed that DP1 activation induces l-PGDS/Rab4 co-localization. l-PGDS/Rab4 and DP1/Rab4 co-immunoprecipitation levels were increased by DP1 agonist treatment. Pulldown assays with purified GST-l-PGDS and His6-Rab4 indicated that both proteins interact directly. l-PGDS interacted preferentially with the inactive, GDP-locked Rab4S22N variant rather than with WT Rab4 or with constitutively active Rab4Q67L proteins. Overexpression and depletion experiments disclosed that l-PGDS partakes in Rab4 activation following DP1 stimulation. Experiments with deletion mutants and synthetic peptides revealed that amino acids 85-92 in l-PGDS are involved in its interaction with Rab4 and in its effect on DP1 recycling. Of note, GTPγS loading and time-resolved FRET assays with purified proteins suggested that l-PGDS enhances GDP-GTP exchange on Rab4. Our results reveal how l-PGDS, which produces the agonist for DP1, regulates DP1 recycling by participating in Rab4 recruitment and activation.

Abstract
Chronic kidney disease is currently assessed by estimated glomerular filtration rate, a mathematical construct based on creatinine or creatinine and cystatin concentration. Creatinine-based equations have improved with standardization efforts and the Modification of Diet in Renal Disease Study (MDRD) and CKD-Epidemiology Collaboration Study (CKD-EPI). Because the measurement of creatinine is subject to interference from non-GFR determinants, alternative markers have long been sought. These have included cystatin C and low molecular weight proteins like β2-microglobulin and beta trace protein. Tubular disease often occurs before glomerular filtration is impaired and investigators have investigated the excretion of other low molecular weight proteins such as Neutrophil Gelatinase-Associated Lipocalin (NGAL) and Kidney Injury Molecule-1 and N-acetyl-β-d-glucosaminidase. While preliminary, there is some evidence linking these analytes with GFR, disease stage and mortality. Although asymmetrical dimethyl arginine, an inhibitor of nitric oxide, has been shown to be associated with progression of renal disease, symmetric dimethyl arginine may be a better marker. Recent work has also explored the potential of microRNA (miRNA) analysis and metabolomics studies to further elucidate this complex pathophysiologic disease process. Investigators hope to improve our ability to detect CKD by the use of test panels, i.e., various marker combinations thereof. Unfortunately, most of these markers lack standardization unlike traditional measures that rely on creatinine and cystatin C measurement.

Abstract
Lipid mediators (LM) of inflammation are a class of compounds derived from ω-3 and ω-6 fatty acids that play a wide role in modulating inflammatory responses. Some LM possess pro-inflammatory properties, while others possess proresolving characteristics, and the class switch from pro-inflammatory to proresolving is crucial for tissue homeostasis. In this article, we review the major classes of LM, focusing on their biosynthesis and signaling pathways, and their role in systemic and, especially, oral health and disease. We discuss the detection of these LM in various body fluids, focusing on diagnostic and therapeutic applications. We also present data showing gender-related differences in salivary LM levels in healthy controls, leading to a hypothesis on the etiology of inflammatory diseases, particularly Sjögren's syndrome. We conclude by enumerating open areas of research where further investigation of LM is likely to result in therapeutic and diagnostic advances.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Serum creatinine (SCr) levels are decreased following traumatic amputation, leading to the overestimation of glomerular filtration rate (GFR). β-Trace protein (BTP) and β2-microglobulin (B2M) strongly correlate with measured GFR and have not been studied following amputation. We hypothesized that BTP and B2M would be unaffected by traumatic amputation. METHODS We used the Department of Defense Serum Repository to compare pre- and post-traumatic amputation serum BTP and B2M levels in 33 male soldiers, via the N Latex BTP and B2M nephelometric assays (Siemens Diagnostics, Tarrytown, N.Y., USA). Osterkamp estimation using DEXA scan measurements was used to establish percent estimated body weight loss (%EBWL). Results were analyzed for small (3-5.9% EBWL), medium (6-13.5%), and large (>13.5%) amputation subgroups; and for a control group matched 1:1 to the 12 large amputation subjects. Paired Student's t test was used for comparisons. RESULTS Mean serum BTP levels were unchanged in controls, all amputees, and the small and medium amputation subgroups. BTP appeared to decrease following large %EBWL amputation (p = 0.05). Mean serum B2M levels were unchanged in controls, all amputees, and the small and medium amputation subgroups. B2M appeared to increase following large %EBWL amputation (p = 0.05). CONCLUSIONS BTP and B2M levels are less affected than SCr by amputation, and should be considered for future study of GFR estimation. BTP and B2M changes following large %EBWL amputation require validation and may offer insight into non-GFR BTP and B2M determinants as well as increased cardiovascular disease and mortality following amputation.

Abstract
β-Trace protein (BTP), also known as lipocalin prostaglandin D2 synthase (L-PGDS; encoded by the PTGDS gene), is a low-molecular-weight glycoprotein and an emerging novel marker of glomerular filtration rate. BTP is an important constituent of cerebral spinal fluid and is found in much lower concentrations in blood. Its serum origin and renal handling remain poorly understood. Unlike serum creatinine, BTP is not physiologically inert. It possesses both ligand-binding and enzymatic properties. BTP catalyzes the conversion of prostaglandin H2 (PGH2) to PGD2. PGD2 is an eicosanoid involved in a variety of important physiologic processes, including platelet aggregation, vasodilation, inflammation, adipogenesis, and bone remodeling. Several studies now have documented BTP's strong association with glomerular filtration rate, end-stage renal disease, cardiovascular disease, and death in a variety of different patient populations. This review provides an overview of the biochemistry, physiology and metabolism, biological functions, and measurement of BTP; summarizes the evidence for BTP as a marker of both kidney function and cardiovascular disease; and then considers the interplay between its biological properties, serum concentration, and patient outcomes.

Abstract
In a recent study we have shown that prostaglandin D2 (PGD2) induces human osteoclast (OC) apoptosis through the activation of the chemoattractant receptor homologous molecule expressed on T-helper type 2 cell (CRTH2) receptor and the intrinsic apoptotic pathway. However, the molecular mechanisms underlying this response remain elusive. The objective of this study is to investigate the intracellular signaling pathways mediating PGD2-induced OC apoptosis. OCs were generated by in vitro differentiation of human peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMCs), and then treated with or without the selective inhibitors of mitogen-activated protein kinase-extracellular signal-regulated kinase (ERK) kinase, (MEK)-1/2, phosphatidylinositol3-kinase (PI3K) and NF-κB/IκB kinase-2 (IKK2) prior to the treatments of PGD2 as well as its agonists and antagonists. Fluorogenic substrate assay and immunoblotting were performed to determine the caspase-3 activity and key proteins involved in Akt, ERK1/2 and NF-κB signaling pathways. Treatments with both PGD2 and a CRTH2 agonist decreased ERK1/2 (Thr202/Tyr204) and Akt (Ser473) phosphorylation, whereas both treatments increased β-arrestin-1 phosphorylation (Ser412) in the presence of naproxen, which was used to eliminate endogenous prostaglandin production. In the absence of naproxen, treatment with a CRTH2 antagonist increased both ERK1/2 and Akt phosphorylations, and reduced the phosphorylation of β-arrestin-1. Treatment of OCs with a selective MEK-1/2 inhibitor increased caspase-3 activity and OC apoptosis induced by both PGD2 and a CRTH2 agonist. Moreover, a CRTH2 antagonist diminished the selective MEK-1/2 inhibitor-induced increase in caspase-3 activity in the presence of endogenous prostaglandins. In addition, treatment of OCs with a selective PI3K inhibitor decreased ERK1/2 (Thr202/Tyr204) phosphorylation caused by PGD2, whereas increased ERK1/2 (Thr202/Tyr204) phosphorylation by a CRTH2 antagonist was attenuated with a PI3K inhibitor treatment. The DP receptor was not implicated in any of the parameters evaluated. Treatment of OCs with PGD2 as well as its receptor agonists and antagonists did not alter the phosphorylation of RelA/p65 (Ser536). Moreover, the caspase-3 activity was not altered in OCs treated with a selective IKK2/NF-κB inhibitor. In conclusion, endogenous or exogenous PGD2 induces CRTH2-dependent apoptosis in human differentiated OCs; β-arrestin-1, ERK1/2, and Akt, but not IKK2/NF-κB are probably implicated in the signaling pathways of this receptor in the model studied.

Abstract
Prostaglandin D₂ (PGD₂) acts through two G protein-coupled receptors (GPCRs), the prostanoid DP receptor and CRTH2 also known as DP1 and DP2, respectively. Several previously characterized GPCR antagonists are now classified as inverse agonists and a number of GPCR ligands are known to display pharmacochaperone activity towards a given receptor. Here, we demonstrate that a DP1 specific antagonist, MK-0524 (also known as laropiprant), decreased basal levels of intracellular cAMP produced by DP1, a Gα(s)-coupled receptor, in HEK293 cells. This reduction in cAMP levels was not altered by pertussis toxin treatment, indicating that MK-0524 did not induce coupling of DP1 to Gα(i/o) proteins and that this ligand is a DP1 inverse agonist. Basal ERK1/2 activation by DP1 was not modulated by MK-0524. Interestingly, treatment of HEK293 cells expressing Flag-tagged DP1 with MK-0524 promoted DP1 cell surface expression time-dependently to reach a maximum increase of 50% compared to control after 24 h. In contrast, PGD₂ induced the internalization of 75% of cell surface DP1 after the same time of stimulation. The increase in DP1 cell surface targeting by MK-0524 was inhibited by Brefeldin A, an inhibitor of transport from the endoplasmic reticulum-Golgi to the plasma membrane. Confocal microscopy confirmed that a large population of DP1 remained trapped intracellularly and co-localized with calnexin, an endoplasmic reticulum marker. Redistribution of DP1 from intracellular compartments to the plasma membrane was observed following treatment with MK-0524 for 24 h. Furthermore, MK-0524 promoted the interaction between DP1 and the ANKRD13C protein, which we showed previously to display chaperone-like effects towards the receptor. We thus report that MK-0524 is an inverse agonist and a pharmacochaperone of DP1. Our findings may have important implications during therapeutic treatments with MK-0524 and for the development of new molecules targeting DP1.

Abstract
Tissue repair and regeneration are essential processes in maintaining tissue homeostasis, especially in response to injury or stress. Eicosanoids are ubiquitous mediators of cell proliferation, differentiation, and angiogenesis, all of which are important for tissue growth. Eicosanoids regulate the induction and resolution of inflammation that accompany the tissue response to injury. In this review, we describe how this diverse group of molecules is a key regulator of tissue repair and regeneration in multiple organ systems and biologic contexts.

Abstract
Prostaglandin D(2) (PGD(2)) is a lipid mediator synthesized from arachidonic acid that directly activates two specific receptors, the D-type prostanoid (DP) receptor and chemoattractant receptor homologous molecule expressed on T-helper type 2 cells (CRTH2). PGD(2) can affect bone metabolism by influencing both osteoblast and osteoclast (OC) functions, both cells involved in bone remodeling and in in vivo fracture repair as well. The objective of the present study was to determine the effects of PGD(2), acting through its two specific receptors, on human OC apoptosis. Human OCs were differentiated in vitro from peripheral blood mononuclear cells in the presence of receptor activator for nuclear factor κB ligand (RANKL) and macrophage-colony stimulating factor (M-CSF), and treated with PGD(2), its specific agonists and antagonists. Treatment with PGD(2) for 24hours in the presence of naproxen (10μM) to inhibit endogenous prostaglandin production increased the percentage of apoptotic OCs in a dose-dependent manner, as did the specific CRTH2 agonist compound DK-PGD(2) but not the DP agonist compound BW 245C. In the absence of naproxen, the CRTH2 antagonist compound CAY 10471 reduced OC apoptosis rate but the DP antagonist BW A868C had no effect. The induction of PGD(2)-CRTH2 dependent apoptosis was associated with the activation of caspase-9, but not caspase-8, leading to caspase-3 cleavage. These data show that PGD(2) induces human OC apoptosis through activation of CRTH2 and the apoptosis intrinsic pathway.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE Prostaglandin D2 (PGD2) may exert proinflammatory or antiinflammatory effects in different biologic systems. Although this prostanoid and the enzymes responsible for its synthesis are up-regulated by interleukin-1β (IL-1β) in human chondrocytes in vitro, the role of PGD2 in arthritis remains unclear. This study was undertaken to investigate the role of PGD2 in the inflammatory response and in joint destruction during the development of collagen-induced arthritis (CIA) in mice. METHODS PGD2 and cytokine levels in mice with CIA were determined by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay. Expression of hematopoietic PGD synthase (h-PGDS), lipocalin-type PGD synthase (l-PGDS), and DP1 and DP2 receptors was analyzed by immunohistochemical methods. PGE2 levels were determined by radioimmunoassay. RESULTS The arthritic process up-regulated the expression of h-PGDS, l-PGDS, DP1, and DP2 in articular tissue. PGD2 was produced in the joint during the early phase of arthritis, and serum PGD2 levels increased progressively throughout the arthritic process, reaching a maximum during the late stages of CIA. Treatment of arthritic mice with the DP1 antagonist MK0524 soon after the onset of disease increased the incidence and severity of CIA as well as the local levels of IL-1β, CXCL-1, and PGE2, whereas IL-10 levels were reduced. The administration of the DP2 antagonist CAY10595 did not modify the severity of arthritis. The injection of PGD2 into the paw, as well as the administration of the DP1 agonist BW245C, significantly lowered the incidence of CIA, the inflammatory response, and joint damage. CONCLUSION Our findings indicate that PGD2 is produced in articular tissue during the development of CIA and plays an antiinflammatory role, acting through the DP1 receptor.

Abstract
L-type prostaglandin synthase (L-PGDS) produces PGD(2), a lipid mediator involved in neuromodulation and inflammation. Here, we show that L-PGDS and arrestin-3 (Arr3) interact directly and can be co-immunoprecipitated endogenously from MG-63 osteoblasts. Perinuclear L-PGDS/Arr3 co-localization is observed in PGD(2)-producing MG-63 cells and is induced by the addition of the L-PGDS substrate or co-expression of COX-2 in HEK293 cells. Inhibition of L-PGDS activity in MG-63 cells triggers redistribution of Arr3 and L-PGDS to the cytoplasm. Perinuclear localization of L-PGDS is detected in wild-type mouse embryonic fibroblasts (MEFs) but is more diffused in MEFs-arr-2(-/-)-arr-3(-/-). Arrestin-3 promotes PGD(2) production by L-PGDS in vitro. IL-1β-induced PGD(2) production is significantly lower in MEFs-arr-2(-/-)-arr-3(-/-) than in wild-type MEFs but can be rescued by expressing Arr2 or Arr3. A peptide corresponding to amino acids 86-100 of arrestin-3 derived from its L-PGDS binding domain stimulates L-PGDS-mediated PGD(2) production in vitro and in MG-63 cells. We report the first characterization of an interactor/modulator of a PGD(2) synthase and the identification of a new function for arrestin, which may open new opportunities for improving therapies for the treatment of inflammatory diseases.

Abstract
Although the mechanisms that regulate folding and maturation of newly synthesized G protein-coupled receptors are crucial for their function, they remain poorly characterized. By yeast two-hybrid screening, we have isolated ANKRD13C, a protein of unknown function, as an interacting partner for the DP receptor for prostaglandin D(2). In the present study we report the characterization of this novel protein as a regulator of DP biogenesis and trafficking in the biosynthetic pathway. Co-localization by confocal microscopy with an endoplasmic reticulum (ER) marker, subcellular fractionation experiments, and demonstration of the interaction between ANKRD13C and the cytoplasmic C terminus of DP suggest that ANKRD13C is a protein associated with the cytosolic side of ER membranes. Co-expression of ANKRD13C with DP initially increased receptor protein levels, whereas siRNA-mediated knockdown of endogenous ANKRD13C decreased them. Pulse-chase experiments indicated that ANKRD13C can promote the biogenesis of DP by inhibiting the degradation of newly synthesized receptors. However, a prolonged interaction between ANKRD13C and DP resulted in ER retention of misfolded/unassembled forms of the receptor and to their proteasome-mediated degradation. ANKRD13C also regulated the expression of other GPCRs tested (CRTH2, thromboxane A(2) (TPα), and β2-adrenergic receptor), whereas it did not affect the expression of green fluorescent protein, GRK2 (G protein-coupled receptor kinase 2), and VSVG (vesicular stomatitis virus glycoprotein), showing specificity toward G protein-coupled receptors. Altogether, these results suggest that ANKRD13C acts as a molecular chaperone for G protein-coupled receptors, regulating their biogenesis and exit from the ER.
