Xiphophorus fish exhibit a clear phenotypic polymorphism in puberty onset and reproductive strategies of males. In X. nigrensis and X. multilineatus, puberty onset is genetically determined and linked to a melanocortin 4 receptor (Mc4r) polymorphism of wild-type and mutant alleles on the sex chromosomes. We hypothesized that Mc4r mutant alleles act on wild-type alleles by a dominant negative effect through receptor dimerization, leading to differential intracellular signaling and effector gene activation. Depending on signaling strength, the onset of puberty either occurs early or is delayed. Here, we show by Förster Resonance Energy Transfer (FRET) that wild-type Xiphophorus Mc4r monomers can form homodimers, but also heterodimers with mutant receptors resulting in compromised signaling which explains the reduced Mc4r signaling in large males. Thus, hetero- vs. homo- dimerization seems to be the key molecular mechanism for the polymorphism in puberty onset and body size in male fish.
The pancreas is the key organ for the maintenance of euglycemia. This is regulated in particular by α-cell-derived glucagon and β-cell-derived insulin, which are released in response to nutrient deficiency and elevated glucose levels, respectively. Although glucose is the main regulator of insulin secretion, it is significantly enhanced by various potentiators.
Platelets are anucleate cell fragments in the bloodstream that are essential for hemostasis to prevent and stop bleeding events. Besides their classical role, platelets were implemented to be crucial for other physiological and pathophysiological processes, such as cancer progression, immune defense, and angiogenesis. Platelets from diabetic patients often present increased reactivity and basal activation. Interestingly, platelets store and release several substances that have been reported to potentiate insulin secretion by β-cells. For these reasons, the impact of platelets on β-cell functioning was investigated in this thesis.
Here it was shown that both glucose and a β-cell-derived substance/s promote platelet activation and binding to collagen. Additionally, platelet adhesion specifically to the microvasculature of pancreatic islets was revealed, supporting the hypothesis of their influence on glucose homeostasis. Genetic or pharmacological ablation of platelet functioning and platelet depletion consistently resulted in reduced insulin secretion and associated glucose intolerance. Further, the platelet-derived lipid fraction was found to enhance glucose-stimulated insulin secretion, with 20-hydroxyeicosatetraenoic acid (20-HETE) and possibly also lyso-precursor of platelet-activating factor (lysoPAF) being identified as crucial factors. However, the acute platelet-stimulated insulin secretion was found to decline with age, as did the levels of platelet-derived 20-HETE. In addition to their direct stimulatory effect on insulin secretion, specific defects in platelet activation have also been shown to affect glucose homeostasis by potentially influencing islet vascular development. Taking together, the results of this thesis suggest a direct and indirect mechanism of platelets in the regulation of insulin secretion that ensures glucose homeostasis, especially in young individuals.
Ferroptosis is a form of cell death characterized by phospholipid peroxidation, where numerous studies have suggested that the induction of ferroptosis is a therapeutic strategy to target therapy refractory cancer entities. Ferroptosis suppressor protein 1 (FSP1), an NAD(P)H-ubiquinone reductase, is a key determinant of ferroptosis vulnerability, and its pharmacological inhibition was shown to strongly sensitize cancer cells to ferroptosis. A first generation of FSP1 inhibitors, exemplified by the small molecule iFSP1, has been reported; however, the molecular mechanisms underlying inhibition have not been characterized in detail. In this study, we explore the species-specific inhibition of iFSP1 on the human isoform to gain insights into its mechanism of action. Using a combination of cellular, biochemical, and computational methods, we establish a critical contribution of a species-specific aromatic architecture that is essential for target engagement. The results described here provide valuable insights for the rational development of second-generation FSP1 inhibitors combined with a tracer for screening the druggable pocket. In addition, we pose a cautionary notice for using iFSP1 in animal models, specifically murine models.
Glycine receptor β–targeting autoantibodies contribute to the pathology of autoimmune diseases
(2024)
Background and Objectives
Stiff-person syndrome (SPS) and progressive encephalomyelitis with rigidity and myoclonus (PERM) are rare neurologic disorders of the CNS. Until now, exclusive GlyRα subunit–binding autoantibodies with subsequent changes in function and surface numbers were reported. GlyR autoantibodies have also been described in patients with focal epilepsy. Autoimmune reactivity against the GlyRβ subunits has not yet been shown. Autoantibodies against GlyRα1 target the large extracellular N-terminal domain. This domain shares a high degree of sequence homology with GlyRβ making it not unlikely that GlyRβ-specific autoantibody (aAb) exist and contribute to the disease pathology.
Methods
In this study, we investigated serum samples from 58 patients for aAb specifically detecting GlyRβ. Studies in microarray format, cell-based assays, and primary spinal cord neurons and spinal cord tissue immunohistochemistry were performed to determine specific GlyRβ binding and define aAb binding to distinct protein regions. Preadsorption approaches of aAbs using living cells and the purified extracellular receptor domain were further used. Finally, functional consequences for inhibitory neurotransmission upon GlyRβ aAb binding were resolved by whole-cell patch-clamp recordings.
Results
Among 58 samples investigated, cell-based assays, tissue analysis, and preadsorption approaches revealed 2 patients with high specificity for GlyRβ aAb. Quantitative protein cluster analysis demonstrated aAb binding to synaptic GlyRβ colocalized with the scaffold protein gephyrin independent of the presence of GlyRα1. At the functional level, binding of GlyRβ aAb from both patients to its target impair glycine efficacy.
Discussion
Our study establishes GlyRβ as novel target of aAb in patients with SPS/PERM. In contrast to exclusively GlyRα1-positive sera, which alter glycine potency, aAbs against GlyRβ impair receptor efficacy for the neurotransmitter glycine. Imaging and functional analyses showed that GlyRβ aAbs antagonize inhibitory neurotransmission by affecting receptor function rather than localization.
Sepsis ist ein häufiges und akut lebensbedrohliches Syndrom, das eine Organfunktionsstörung in Folge einer dysregulierten Immunantwort auf eine Infektion beschreibt. Eine frühzeitige Diagnosestellung und Therapieeinleitung sind von zentraler Bedeutung für das Überleben der Patient:innen. In einer Pilotstudie konnte unsere Forschungsgruppe mittels Durchflusszytometrie eine ausgeprägte Hyporeaktivität der Thrombozyten bei Sepsis nachweisen, die einen potenziell neuen Biomarker zur Sepsis-Früherkennung darstellt. Zur Evaluation des Ausmaßes und Entstehungszeitpunktes der detektierten Thrombozytenfunktionsstörung wurden im Rahmen der vorliegenden Arbeit zusätzlich zu Patient:innen mit Sepsis (SOFA-Score ≥ 2; n=13) auch hospitalisierte Patient:innen mit einer Infektion ohne Sepsis (SOFA-Score < 2; n=12) rekrutiert. Beide Kohorten wurden zu zwei Zeitpunkten (t1: <24h; t2: Tag 5-7) im Krankheitsverlauf mittels Durchflusszytometrie und PFA-200 untersucht und mit einer gesunden Kontrollgruppe (n=28) verglichen.
Phänotypische Auffälligkeiten der Thrombozyten bei Sepsis umfassten: (i) eine veränderte Expression verschiedener Untereinheiten des GPIb-IX-V-Rezeptorkomplexes, die auf ein verstärktes Rezeptor-Shedding hindeutet; (ii) ein ausgeprägtes Mepacrin-Beladungsdefizit, das auf eine zunehmend reduzierte Anzahl von δ-Granula entlang des Infektion-Sepsis Kontinuums hinweist; (iii) eine Reduktion endständig gebundener Sialinsäure im Sinne einer verstärkten Desialylierung. Die funktionelle Analyse der Thrombozyten bei Sepsis ergab bei durchflusszytometrischer Messung der Integrin αIIbβ3-Aktivierung (PAC-1-Bindung) eine ausgeprägte generalisierte Hyporeaktivität gegenüber multiplen Agonisten, die abgeschwächt bereits bei Infektion nachweisbar war und gemäß ROC-Analysen gut zwischen Infektion und Sepsis diskriminierte (AUC >0.80 für alle Agonisten). Im Gegensatz dazu zeigten Thrombozyten bei Sepsis und Analyse mittels PFA-200 unter Einfluss physiologischer Scherkräfte eine normale bis gar beschleunigte Aggregation.
Die Reaktivitätsmessung von Thrombozyten mittels Durchflusszytometrie stellt weiterhin einen vielversprechenden Biomarker für die Sepsis-Früherkennung dar. Für weitere Schlussfolgerungen ist jedoch eine größere Kohorte erforderlich. In nachfolgenden Untersuchungen sollten zudem mechanistische Ursachen der beschriebenen phänotypischen und funktionellen Auffälligkeiten von Thrombozyten bei Infektion und Sepsis z.B. mittels Koinkubationsexperimenten untersucht werden.
Platelets play an important role in haemostasis by mediating blood clotting at sites of blood vessel damage. Platelets, also participate in pathological conditions including thrombosis and inflammation. Upon vessel damage, two glycoprotein receptors, the GPIb-IX-V complex and GPVI, play important roles in platelet capture and activation.
GPIb-IX-V binds to von Willebrand factor and GPVI to collagen. This initiates a signalling cascade resulting in platelet shape change and spreading, which is dependent on the actin cytoskeleton. This thesis aimed to develop and implement different super-resolution microscopy techniques to gain a deeper understanding of the conformation and location of these receptors in the platelet plasma membrane, and to provide insights into their signalling pathways. We suggest direct stochastic optical reconstruction microscopy (dSTORM) and structured illumination microscopy (SIM) as the best candidates for imaging single platelets, whereas expansion microscopy (ExM) is ideal for imaging platelets aggregates.
Furthermore, we highlighted the role of the actin cytoskeleton, through Rac in GPVI signalling pathway. Inhibition of Rac, with EHT1864 in human platelets induced GPVI and GPV, but not GPIbα shedding. Furthermore, EHT1864 treatment did not change GPVI dimerisation or clustering, however, it decreased phospholipase Cγ2 phosphorylation levels, in human, but not murine platelets, highlighting interspecies differences. In summary, this PhD thesis demonstrates that; 1) Rac alters GPVI signalling pathway in human but not mouse platelets; 2) our newly developed ExM protocol can be used to image platelet aggregates labelled with F(ab’) fragments
Kef couples the potassium efflux with proton influx in gram-negative bacteria. The resulting acidification of the cytosol efficiently prevents the killing of the bacteria by reactive electrophilic compounds. While other degradation pathways for electrophiles exist, Kef is a short-term response that is crucial for survival. It requires tight regulation since its activation comes with the burden of disturbed homeostasis. Electrophiles, entering the cell, react spontaneously or catalytically with glutathione, which is present at high concentrations in the cytosol. The resulting glutathione conjugates bind to the cytosolic regulatory domain of Kef and trigger activation while the binding of glutathione keeps the system closed. Furthermore, nucleotides can bind to this domain for stabilization or inhibition. The binding of an additional ancillary subunit, called KefF or KefG, to the cytosolic domain is required for full activation. The regulatory domain is termed K+ transport–nucleotide binding (KTN) or regulator of potassium conductance (RCK) domain, and it is also found in potassium uptake systems or channels in other oligomeric arrangements. Bacterial RosB-like transporters and K+ efflux antiporters (KEA) of plants are homologs of Kef but fulfill different functions. In summary, Kef provides an interesting and well-studied example of a highly regulated bacterial transport system.
Monoglyceride lipase (MGL) hydrolyzes monoacylglycerols (MG) to glycerol and one fatty acid. Among the various MG species, MGL also degrades 2-arachidonoylglycerol, the most abundant endocannabinoid and potent activator of the cannabinoid receptors 1 and 2. We investigated the consequences of MGL deficiency on platelet function using systemic (Mgl\(^{−/−}\)) and platelet-specific Mgl-deficient (platMgl\(^{−/−}\)) mice. Despite comparable platelet morphology, loss of MGL was associated with decreased platelet aggregation and reduced response to collagen activation. This was reflected by reduced thrombus formation in vitro, accompanied by a longer bleeding time and a higher blood volume loss. Occlusion time after FeCl\(_3\)-induced injury was markedly reduced in Mgl\(^{−/−}\) mice, which is consistent with contraction of large aggregates and fewer small aggregates in vitro. The absence of any functional changes in platelets from platMgl\(^{−/−}\) mice is in accordance with lipid degradation products or other molecules in the circulation, rather than platelet-specific effects, being responsible for the observed alterations in Mgl\(^{−/−}\) mice. We conclude that genetic deletion of MGL is associated with altered thrombogenesis.
Platelets have a key physiological role in haemostasis however, inappropriate thrombus formation can lead to cardiovascular diseases such as myocardial infarction or stroke. Although, such diseases are common worldwide there are comparatively few anti-platelet drugs, and these are associated with an increased risk of bleeding. Platelets also have roles in thrombo-inflammation, immuno-thrombosis and cancer, in part via C-type lectin-like receptor 2 (CLEC-2) and its ligand podoplanin. Although CLEC-2 contributes to these diseases in mice, as well as to thrombus stability, it is unclear whether CLEC-2 has similar roles in humans, particularly as human CLEC-2 (hCLEC-2) cannot be investigated experimentally in vivo.
To investigate hCLEC-2 in vivo, we generated a humanised CLEC-2 mouse (hCLEC-2KI) model, as well as a novel monoclonal antibody, HEL1, that binds to a different site than an existing antibody, AYP1. Using these antibodies, we have provided proof of principle for the use of hCLEC-2KI mice to test potential therapeutics targeting hCLEC-2, and shown for the first time that hCLEC-2 can be immunodepleted, with little effect on haemostasis. However, our results have also suggested that there are species differences in the role of CLEC-2 in arterial thrombosis. We further confirmed this using human blood where blocking CLEC-2 ligand binding had no effect on thrombosis, whereas we confirmed a minor role for mouse CLEC-2 in thrombus stability. We also investigated the effect of blocking CLEC-2 signalling using the Bruton’s tyrosine kinase inhibitor PRN473 on CLEC-2 mediated immuno-thrombosis in a Salmonella typhimurium infection model. However, no effect on thrombosis was observed suggesting that CLEC-2 signalling is not involved.
Overall, our results suggest that there may be differences in the role of human and mouse CLEC-2, at least in arterial thrombosis, which could limit the potential of CLEC-2 as an anti-thrombotic target. However, it appears that the interaction between CLEC-2 and podoplanin is conserved and therefore CLEC-2 could still be a therapeutic target in immuno-thrombosis, thrombo-inflammation and cancer. Furthermore, any potential human specific therapeutics could be investigated in vivo using hCLEC-2KI mice.
Clostridioides bacteria are responsible for life threatening infections. Here, we show that in addition to actin, the binary toxins CDT, C2I, and Iota from Clostridioides difficile, botulinum, and perfrigens, respectively, ADP-ribosylate the actin-related protein Arp2 of Arp2/3 complex and its additional components ArpC1, ArpC2, and ArpC4/5. The Arp2/3 complex is composed of seven subunits and stimulates the formation of branched actin filament networks. This activity is inhibited after ADP-ribosylation of Arp2. Translocation of the ADP-ribosyltransferase component of CDT toxin into human colon carcinoma Caco2 cells led to ADP-ribosylation of cellular Arp2 and actin followed by a collapse of the lamellipodial extensions and F-actin network. Exposure of isolated mouse colon pieces to CDT toxin induced the dissolution of the enterocytes leading to luminal aggregation of cellular debris and the collapse of the mucosal organization. Thus, we identify the Arp2/3 complex as hitherto unknown target of clostridial ADP-ribosyltransferases.
