Hsp70 nucleotide exchange factor Fes1 is essential for ubiquitin-dependent degradation of misfolded cytosolic proteinsGowda, Naveen Kumar Chandappa, Kandasamy, Ganapathi, Froehlich, Marceli S., Dohmen, R. Jürgen, Andréasson, Claes January 2013 (has links)
Protein quality control systems protect cells against the accumulation of toxic misfolded proteins by promoting their selective degradation. Malfunctions of quality control systems are linked to aging and neurodegenerative disease. Folding of polypeptides is facilitated by the association of 70 kDa Heat shock protein (Hsp70) molecular chaperones. If folding cannot be achieved, Hsp70 interacts with ubiquitylation enzymes that promote the proteasomal degradation of the misfolded protein. However, the factors that direct Hsp70 substrates toward the degradation machinery have remained unknown. Here, we identify Fes1, an Hsp70 nucleotide exchange factor of hitherto unclear physiological function, as a cytosolic triaging factor that promotes proteasomal degradation of misfolded proteins. Fes1 selectively interacts with misfolded proteins bound by Hsp70 and triggers their release from the chaperone. In the absence of Fes1, misfolded proteins fail to undergo polyubiquitylation, aggregate, and induce a strong heat shock response. Our findings reveal that Hsp70 direct proteins toward either folding or degradation by using distinct nucleotide exchange factors.

Examination of the expression of the heat shock protein gene, hsp110, in Xenopus laevis cultured cells and embryosGauley, Julie 14 January 2008 (has links)
Prokaryotic and eukaryotic organisms respond to various stressors with the production of heat shock proteins (HSPs). HSP110 is a large molecular mass HSP that is constitutively expressed in most adult mammalian tissues. In the present study, we have examined for the first time the expression of the hsp110 gene in Xenopus laevis cultured cells and embryos. The Xenopus hsp110 cDNA encodes an 854 amino acid protein, which shares 74% identity with mice and humans. In Xenopus A6 kidney epithelial cells hsp110 mRNA was detected constitutively and was heat inducible. Enhanced hsp110 mRNA levels were detected within 1 h, and remained elevated for at least 6 h. A similar accumulation of hsp70 mRNA was observed, but only in response to stress. Treatment of A6 cells with sodium arsenite and cadmium chloride also induced hsp110 and hsp70 mRNA accumulation. However, while ethanol treatment resulted in the accumulation of hsp70 mRNA no effect was seen for hsp110. Similarly, HSP110 and HSP70 protein increased after a 2 h heat shock and 12 h sodium arsenite treatment. The elevation in HSP110 and HSP70 protein in response to heat was detectable for up to 6 h. Recent studies with mice suggest an important role for HSP110 during development. Analysis of Xenopus embryos revealed that hsp110 mRNA was present in unfertilized eggs, indicating that it is a maternal mRNA, unlike the hsp70 message which was only detectable in response to heat shock. Heat shock-induced hsp110 mRNA accumulation was developmentally regulated, similar to hsp70, since it was not detectable until after the midblastula stage of development. Enhanced hsp110 mRNA accumulation was evident with heat shock at the blastula stage, and levels continued to increase reaching a maximum at the late tailbud stage. Message for the small heat shock protein, hsp27, was not detectable until the early tailbud stage, indicating that this hsp was not present maternally and was developmentally regulated. In situ hybridization analysis revealed that hsp110 mRNA was present in control embryos in the lens placode, spinal cord and somites, but increased upon heat shock in the anterior and posterior region, the lens placode, as well as in the somites and spinal cord. A similar distribution was observed for the hsp27 message, although it was not detectable until the early tailbud stage in control or heat-shocked embryos. The intracellular localization of HSP110 protein in response to stress was also investigated. HSP110 was detected predominantly in the cytoplasm in either a diffuse pattern or in long spindle-shaped fibres. Additionally, HSP110 was present in the nucleus. In heat shocked Xenopus A6 cells, HSP110 localized in distinct patterns surrounding the nucleus and was enhanced in the nucleus after prolonged heat stress. Sodium arsenite-treated cells displayed a similar pattern in which HSP110 localized on opposite ends of the nucleus. In contrast, in response to stress HSP30 was homogeneously distributed in the cytoplasm, moving into the nucleus only upon intense stress. This study presents, for the first time, a characterization of HSP110 in Xenopus laevis, adding to the growing knowledge of HSPs in this important model organism.

Etude de la mutation de la chaperonne HSP110 dans les cancers gastro-intestinaux MSI : conséquences fonctionnelles et cliniques / Functional and clinical consequences of HSP110 mutation in gastrointestinal cancersBokhari, A'Dem 26 September 2017 (has links)
L'instabilité microsatellitaire (MSI) résulte d'une déficience du système de réparation des mésappariements de l'ADN. Cette instabilité est observée dans 10-15% des tumeurs chez l'Homme, incluant les cancers colorectaux (CCR) et de l'estomac (CG). En 2011, notre laboratoire a rapporté la mutation de la chaperonne HSP110 dans les CCR MSI. Cette mutation affecte un microsatellite intronique de 17 thymidines (T17), localisé au niveau de l'intron 8. Les grandes délétions somatiques du T17 (? 5 paires de bases), représentant 25% des CCR MSI, conduisent à l'inactivation complète de la chaperonne HSP110 dans les CCR MSI. De manière remarquable, ces grandes délétions sont prédictives chez les patients d'une excellente réponse à la chimiothérapie adjuvante. Au cours de ma thèse, mes travaux ont visé à étudier l'impact de la mutation d'HSP110 dans les tumeurs gastro-intestinales MSI. Mes résultats démontrent que la mutation du microsatellite T17 d'HSP110 a pour conséquence une diminution de la prolifération cellulaire en partie lié à la diminution de la phosphorylation du facteur de transcription STAT3. En outre, mes résultats suggèrent que cette mutation serait un facteur prédictif de survie chez les patients atteint de CG, indiquant le potentiel théranostique d'HSP110. Enfin, je propose une approche thérapeutique innovante pour les patients atteints de CCR MSI, basée sur la potentialisation de l'expression de transcrits mutants, codant pour des protéines délétères pour la cellule tumorale, à l'instar du dominant négatif HSP110DE9 résultant de la mutation d'HSP110 dont l'ARN semble être régulé par le système NMD (Nonsense-Mediated mRNA Decay). / Microsatellite instability (MSI) results from impaired DNA mismatch repair, being observed in 10-15% of frequent tumors in human, e.g. Colorectal (CRC), Gastric Cancers (GC) and others. In 2011, frequent somatic mutations of the HSP110 chaperone have been reported in MSI CRC by my lab, affecting a T17 intronic DNA repeat located in intron 8. Large (≥ 5 base pairs) bi-allelic somatic deletions of this DNA repeat in tumor DNAs, as observed in about 25% of MSI CRC, lead to complete inactivation of HSP110 by exon 9 skipping and sensitization of tumor cells to chemotherapy. These large deletions are predictive of improved response to adjuvant chemotherapy in CRC patients. During my PhD thesis, I further investigated the role of HSP110 in MSI tumors. My results demonstrate that HSP110 mutation leads to cell proliferation decrease through the reduction of STAT3 transcription factor phosphorylation in CRC tumors (Berthenet*, Bokhari*, et al., Oncogene 2016). Furthermore, I showed that HSP110 mutation is also frequently observed in MSI gastric cancer, leading to very similar pathophysiological consequences during tumor progression and improved patient’s survival independently from tumor stage (Cervera*, Lagrange*, Bokhari* et al., submitted). Finally, I worked on an innovative therapeutic approach that consisted in inhibiting the NMD (Nonsense-Mediated mRNA Decay) system, an ubiquitous process recognizing and degrading mRNAs containing premature termination codons (PTC). The inhibition of NMD leads to the expression of deleterious MSI-driven mutant transcripts such as the HSP110DE9, coding for a dominant negative mutant, derived from HSP110 mutation in MSI cancer cells.

La protéine HSP110 : rôle dans le développement tumoral et sur l'immunogénicité du cancer colorectal / HSP110 : role in colorectal cancer development and immunogenicityBerthenet, Kevin 03 December 2015 (has links)
Notre équipe étudie les HSP, et notamment HSP110. Les HSP sont des chaperons impliqués dans le repliement des protéines nouvellement synthétisées et dénaturées. Les HSP sont surexprimées lors des stress et participent à la survie des cellules par leurs propriétés anti-apoptotiques et anti-agrégations. HSP110 est surexprimée dans le cancer colorectal et est associée à un mauvais pronostic. L’expression d’un mutant d’HSP110, nommé HSP110DE9, a été mise en évidence dans les cancers colorectaux de type MSI. Celui-ci y agit comme un dominant négatif, en se liant à HSP110 et en inhibant ses fonctions. Son expression sensibilise les cellules cancéreuses à la chimiothérapie et est associée à un bon pronostic chez les patients.Je me suis tout d’abord intéressé au rôle d’HSP110 dans la régulation de la voie oncogénique STAT3. Son activation est en effet associée à un mauvais pronostic, par l’induction de gènes impliqués dans la prolifération et la survie. La protéine HSP110 favorise la prolifération des cellules colorectales cancéreuses à travers cette voie. HSP110DE9 en revanche l’inhibe. Je me suis ensuite intéressé au rôle d’HSP110 sur la polarisation des macrophages dans le cancer colorectal. Celle-ci peut être sécrétée par les cellules cancéreuses et induit une polarisation pro-tumorale des macrophages. HSP110DE9, en bloquant la sécrétion d’HSP110, conduit en revanche à une polarisation pro-inflammatoire. L’effet d’HSP110 sur la polarisation implique le récepteur TLR4.L’ensemble de ces résultats montrent le rôle d’HSP110 dans la progression tumorale. HSP110 apparaît comme une cible thérapeutique dans le traitement du cancer colorectal. / Our team studies HSPs, including HSP110. HSPs are chaperones involved in the folding of newly synthesized and denatured proteins. HSPs are overexpressed under stress conditions and are involved in cell survival thanks to their anti-apoptotic and anti-aggregation functions. HSP110 is overexpressed in colorectal cancer and is associated with a poor prognosis. The expression of a mutant HSP110, named HSP110DE9, has been shown in MSI colorectal cancer. This one was shown to act there as a dominant negative, by binding HSP110 and inhibiting its functions. Its expression sensitizes cancer cells to chemotherapy and is associated with a better prognosis for patients.I was first interested in HSP110 role in regulating the oncogenic STAT3 pathway. Its activation is associated with a poor prognosis, as it induces the transcription of genes involved in proliferation and survival. HSP110 favors colorectal cancer cell proliferation through this pathway. Conversely, HSP110DE9 inhibited it.I then focused on the role of HSP110 on macrophage polarization in colorectal cancer. HSP110 can be secreted by cancer cells and induces a pro-tumoral macrophage polarization. In contrast, HSP110DE9, by inhibiting HSP110 release, leads to a pro-inflammatory polarization. HSP110 effect on macrophage polarization involve the TLR4 receptor.All these results show HSP110 role in tumor progression. HSP110 appear as a therapeutic target in the treatment of colorectal cancer.

Expression et rôle d’HSP110 dans le lymphome B diffus à grandes cellules de type activé ou ABC-DLBCL / Expression and role of HSP110 in Activated B Cell Diffuse Large B Cell Lymphoma (ABC-DLBCL)Boudesco, Christophe 27 March 2018 (has links)
Les protéines de chocs thermiques (HSP) sont des protéines très conservées au cours de l’évolution des espèces. Ce sont des chaperons moléculaires impliqués dans le repliement des protéines nouvellement synthétisée ou dénaturées. Les HSP sont fortement exprimées dans les cellules cancéreuses, où elles contribuent à la résistance à l’apoptose et aux chimiothérapies. Parmi les HSP, HSP110 est jusqu’à présent peu étudiée. Cependant, HSP110 a été récemment associée au lymphome diffus à grandes cellules B (DLBCL). Le DLBCL est le syndrome lympho-prolifératif agressif le plus fréquent chez l’adulte (30% des lymphomes non-Hodgkinien). Il existe trois principaux sous-type de DLBCL : le type B activé (ABC-DLBCL), le type centre germinatif (GC-DLBCL) et le type lymphome primaire du médiastin (PMBL). La forme activée est celle associée au plus mauvais pronostic clinique. Bien que les thérapies classiques de chimiothérapies associées aux anti-CD20 aient permis d’augmenter le pronostic de survie des patients souffrant de l’ABC-DLBCL, nombreux sont ceux qui développent des résistances ou qui ne répondent pas aux traitements. L’identification de nouvelles cibles thérapeutiques est donc nécessaire.Mes travaux présentent un rôle de HSP110 dans l’activité d’une voie oncogénique du lymphome ABC-DLBCL. En effet, ces travaux démontrent une forte expression d’HSP110 dans les échantillons patients ABC-DLBCL. De plus, ces travaux in vitro sur des lignées ABC-DLBCL montrent une interconnexion entre HSP110 et Myd88 L265P, protéine mutée responsable de l’activation de la voie NF-kB. HSP110 stabilise l’oncogène Myd88 L265P, et participe à l’amplification de la voie NFkB dans le lymphome ABC, voie responsable de la survie et de la prolifération des cellules ABC-DLBCL.Par le biais d’une collaboration, nous avons pu obtenir récemment des inhibiteurs de HSP110. Ainsi, mon travail à également consisté aux criblages in vitro de ces inhibiteurs pour évaluer leur capacité d’inhibition de HSP110. Deux composés ont alors été identifiés comme candidats inhibiteurs d’HSP110. Je me suis ensuite intéressé à l’utilisation de ces inhibiteurs in vitro dans l’ABC-DLBCL. Mes résultats tendent à montrer que ces inhibiteurs ont une action similaire à ceux observés lors de l’inhibition de HSP110 par siRNA ou shRNA.Mes travaux de thèse présente donc HSP110 comme une cible moléculaire potentielle de l’ABC DLBCL. / Heat shock proteins (HSPs) are highly conserved protein across species, and are expressed in all cell type. HSPs are molecular chaperones involved in the folding of newly synthesized or denaturated proteins. HSPs are overexpressed in cancer cells, where they contribute to cancer resistance to chemotherapies. Among HSPs, roles and functions of HSP110 are less described. Interestingly, HSP110 was recently associated with lymphoma aggressiveness in Diffuse Large B Cell Lymphoma (DLBCL). DLBCL is the most lymphoproliferative disease diagnosed in adult (30% of Non-Hodgkin Lymphoma). Three main subtypes of DLBCL are described: Activated-B-Cell lymphoma (ABC-DLBCL), Germinal Center lymphoma (GC-DLBCL), and Primary Mediastinal B Lymphoma (PMBL). ABC-DLBCL is the most aggressive form associated with a poor prognosis. Even if R-CHOP therapies had improve patient’s survival over the last decades, most of patients experiences relapses or treatment resistances. New molecular target are now necessary to treat efficiently these subtypes.My PhD work has highlighted the role of HSP110 in the NFkB signaling pathway, which is an oncogenic pathway in ABC-DLBCL. First, we show that HSP110 is overexpressed in ABC-DLBCL patient sample. We also show an interaction between HSP110 and Myd88 L265P, that is an oncogenic protein responsible for NFkB pathway activation. Consequently, HSP110 stabilizes Myd88 L265P, leading to a sustain NFkB pathway activation in lymphoma cells, and promoting ABC-DLBCL cell survival and proliferation.Finally, our team recently characterized the first known HSP110 inhibitors. I took the opportunity to test these putative inhibitors in my study. My results suggest that these compounds have similar effects than siRNA or shRNA inhibition of HSP110 on ABC-DLBCL survival. This result provide a ground for future in vivo testing of chemical inhibitors of HSP110.In conclusion, my work highlight HSP110 as a potential therapeutic target in ABC-DLBCL.

Mutation de la chaperonne HSP110 et cancers MSI : étude de ses conséquences moléculaires, fonctionelles, physiopathologiques et cliniques / Molecular, functional, pathophysiological and clinical consequences due to the mutation of HSP110 chaperone in colorectal cancerLagrange, Anais 15 December 2014 (has links)
Les cancers MSI (Microsatellite Instable) sont caractérisés par un niveau élevé d'instabilité des séquences répétées de l'ADN, les microsatellites, suite à l'inactivation du système MMR (Mismatch Repair). L'étude de la carcinogenèse MSI a révélé des mutations somatiques (délétion/insertion) de nombreux gènes sur des microsatellites codants, qui décalent le cadre de lecture et engendrent la production de protéines tronquées dont la fonction est le plus souvent perdue. Ces altérations affectent des gènes suppresseurs de tumeurs ou apparentés agissant au niveau de voies de signalisation en rapport avec l'oncogenèse, et sont sélectionnées lorsqu'elles promeuvent le développement tumoral. Ces travaux font état de la découverte de la première mutation d'une chaperonne dans une pathologie tumorale, affectant l'oncogène codant pour HSP110 (Heat Shock Protein) sur un microsatellite non-codant intronique situé dans un site accepteur d'épissage. Cette mutation, conduisant à un saut d'exon, est inéluctable et bi-allélique dans l'ADN tumoral, et entraîne la perte des activités oncogéniques d'HSP110 dans les cellules cancéreuses (effet pro-apoptotique, chimio-sensibilisant, antiprolifératif et de ralentissement de la croissance tumorale). Ces résultats remettent en question les mécanismes de l'oncogenèse MSI et le caractère oncogénique de l'instabilité microsatellitaire. Au niveau physiopathologique et clinique, ils pointent HSP110 comme cible pronostique (facteur prédictif de réponse à la chimiothérapie) et thérapeutique. Je propose une approche de traitement pour les patients avec une tumeur MSI, visant à exacerber le caractère délétère de cette mutation dans les cellules tumorales. / MSI cancers (MicroSatellite Instability) are characterized by widespread instability of DNA repeated sequences, known as microsatellites, due to MMR system (Mismatch Repair) deficiency. Since the detection of this tumor phenotype, most of the oncogenic events reported in these tumors are somatic mutations (1-2 bp insertions or deletions) that affect coding DNA repeats, resulting in frameshifts and inactivation of the corresponding proteins. They accumulate in tumor cells due to positive selection during the MSI-driven tumorigenic process when they promote tumor development by inactivating genes with tumor suppressor-related functions. This work reports the first somatic mutation of a chaperone protein in a cancer so far, i.e. HSP110 (Heat Shock Protein) in MSI colorectal cancer. This mutational event consists in the somatic deletion of the intronic microsatellite, located in the splice acceptor site of HSP110. We demonstrate that it is almost systematic and bi-allelic in these cancers, leading to inactivation of the oncogenic functions of the HSP110 chaperone (pro-apoptotic and anti-proliferative impact leading to chemosensitization of tumor cells and tumor growth decrease). Our findings support an unexpected and paradoxical anticancer impact of the microsatellite instability-driven pathway in mismatch repair-deficient colon cancer. From a pathophysiological and clinical point of view, they highlight HSP110 as a putative relevant prognostic marker (improvement of patients’ response to chemotherapy) and therapeutic target. According to these findings, I propose a therapeutic strategy targeting HSP110 and its mutant for personalized medicine of MSI colon cancer patients.
