    الوصف: Abstract Background The trafficking of cargoes from endosomes to the trans-Golgi network requires numerous sequential and coordinated steps. Cargoes are sorted into endosomal-derived carriers that are transported, tethered, and fused to the trans-Golgi network. The tethering step requires several complexes, including the Golgi-associated retrograde protein complex, whose localization at the trans-Golgi network is determined by the activity of small GTPases of the Arl and Rab family. However, how the Golgi-associated retrograde protein complex recognizes the endosome-derived carriers that will fuse with the trans-Golgi network is still unknown. Methods We studied the retrograde trafficking to the trans-Golgi network by using fluorescent cargoes in cells overexpressing Rab4b or after Rab4b knocked-down by small interfering RNA in combination with the downregulation of subunits of the Golgi-associated retrograde protein complex. We used immunofluorescence and image processing (Super Resolution Radial Fluctuation and 3D reconstruction) as well as biochemical approaches to characterize the consequences of these interventions on cargo carriers trafficking. Results We reported that the VPS52 subunit of the Golgi-associated retrograde protein complex is an effector of Rab4b. We found that overexpression of wild type or active Rab4b increased early endosomal to trans-Golgi network retrograde trafficking of the cation-independent mannose-6-phosphate receptor in a Golgi-associated retrograde protein complex-dependent manner. Conversely, overexpression of an inactive Rab4b or Rab4b knockdown attenuated this trafficking. In the absence of Rab4b, the internalized cation-independent mannose 6 phosphate receptor did not have access to VPS52-labeled structures that look like endosomal subdomains and/or endosome-derived carriers, and whose subcellular distribution is Rab4b-independent. Consequently, the cation-independent mannose-6-phosphate receptor was blocked in early endosomes and no longer had access to the trans-Golgi network. Conclusion Our results support that Rab4b, by controlling the sorting of the cation-independent mannose-6-phosphate receptor towards VPS52 microdomains, confers a directional specificity for cargo carriers en route to the trans-Golgi network. Given the importance of the endocytic recycling in cell homeostasis, disruption of the Rab4b/Golgi-associated retrograde protein complex-dependent step could have serious consequences in pathologies.

    الوصف: Autosomal recessive mutations in the galactosidase β1 (GLB1) gene cause lysosomal β-gal deficiency, resulting in accumulation of galactose-containing substrates and onset of the progressive and fatal neurodegenerative lysosomal storage disease, GM1 gangliosidosis. Here, an enzyme replacement therapy (ERT) approach in fibroblasts from GM1 gangliosidosis patients with recombinant human β-gal (rhβ-gal) produced in Chinese hamster ovary cells enabled direct and precise rhβ-gal delivery to acidified lysosomes. A single, low dose (3 nm) of rhβ-gal was sufficient for normalizing β-gal activity and mediating substrate clearance for several weeks. We found that rhβ-gal uptake by the fibroblasts is dose-dependent and saturable and can be competitively inhibited by mannose 6-phosphate, suggesting cation-independent, mannose 6-phosphate receptor-mediated endocytosis from the cell surface. A single intracerebroventricularly (ICV) administered dose of rhβ-gal (100 μg) resulted in broad bilateral biodistribution of rhβ-gal to critical regions of pathology in a mouse model of GM1 gangliosidosis. Weekly ICV dosing of rhβ-gal for 8 weeks substantially reduced brain levels of ganglioside and oligosaccharide substrates and reversed well-established secondary neuropathology. Of note, unlike with the ERT approach, chronic lentivirus-mediated GLB1 overexpression in the GM1 gangliosidosis patient fibroblasts caused accumulation of a prelysosomal pool of β-gal, resulting in activation of the unfolded protein response and endoplasmic reticulum stress. This outcome was unsurprising in light of our in vitro biophysical findings for rhβ-gal, which include pH-dependent and concentration-dependent stability and dynamic self-association. Collectively, our results highlight that ICV-ERT is an effective therapeutic intervention for managing GM1 gangliosidosis potentially more safely than with gene therapy approaches.

    الوصف: Background Early initiation of enzyme replacement therapy (ERT) with recombinant human acid alpha-glucosidase is an effective treatment for patients with infantile-onset Pompe disease (IOPD) but cannot prevent a slow progression of myopathy. Albuterol has been shown to be helpful in adult patients with Pompe disease, and therefore, we administered an open-label adjunctive therapy with albuterol in IOPD patients undergoing ERT. Methods Fourteen patients, aged 2 to 12 years, were enrolled in this study; all of them had a disease onset before 12 months of life, and 13 of them were ambulatory because of early initiation of ERT. All patients received albuterol (also referred to as salbutamol) 12 mg daily for 26 weeks. The outcome measurements included a 6-minute walk test, four-stair climb test (SCT), the standing/walking/running/jumping domains of Gross Motor Function Measure-88, speech quality, serum creatine kinase, and urinary glucose tetrasaccharide. Outcome and safety measurements were evaluated at baseline, and at 1, 3, and 6 months (26 weeks) after entering the trial. Results After a period of 26 weeks, among the 12 patients who were able to complete the SCT, the median time needed decreased by 22% (p = 0.034). Other parameters inconsistently improved in a variety of individuals. Eleven adverse events, including nausea, urinary frequency, and tachycardia, were potentially related to the study drug, but all were mild and disappeared after a brief drug withdrawal. One patient was actively withdrawn from the trial because of poor compliance. Conclusions The results of our study suggest that albuterol showed a good safety profile as an adjunctive treatment in our IOPD cohort, although the benefits are limited.
    Highlights • Albuterol may benefit some children with infantile-onset Pompe disease. • Albuterol is safe as an adjunctive treatment to enzyme replacement therapy in children with Pompe disease. • Adverse events associated with albuterol are usually manageable.

It has various biological and pharmacological activities, including anti-tumor and immunoregulatory effects. In this study, we explored the potential medicinal applications of trichosanthin in cancer immunotherapy. We found that trichosanthin and cation-independent mannose-6-phosphate receptor competitively bind to the Golgi-localized, γ-ear containing and Arf-binding proteins. It in turn promotes the translocation of cation-independent mannose-6-phosphate receptor from the cytosol to the plasma membrane, which is a receptor of Granzyme B. The upregulation of this receptor on the tumor cell surface increased the cell permeability to Granzyme B, and the latter is one of the major factors of cytotoxic T lymphocyte-mediated tumor cell apoptosis. These results suggest a novel potential application of trichosanthin and shed light on its anti-tumor immunotherapy.

    الوصف: Retromer is a complex of proteins that functions in the endosome-to-Golgi retrieval cargo transport pathway. VPS35 works as the central subunit of retromer to recognize the cargos and binds with VPS29 and VPS26 via distinct domains. We show that deficiency of VPS35 or VPS29 accompanies degradation of other subunits, whereas VPS26 deficiency had no effect on VPS29 and VPS35 levels. Although VPS35 forms VPS26–VPS35 and VPS29–VPS35 sub-complexes with similar efficiency in vitro, VPS26–VPS35 was more easily degradable by the ubiquitin–proteasome-system than VPS29–VPS35. These results indicate that VPS29 and VPS35 form a biologically stable sub-complex in vivo.

    الوصف: Retinoic acids (RAs) have diverse biologic effects and regulate several cellular functions. Here, we investigated the role of RA on autophagy by studying its effects on autophagosome (AUT) maturation, as well as on upstream regulators of autophagosome biogenesis. Our studies, based on the use of pH-sensitive fluorescent reporter markers, suggest that RA promotes AUT acidification and maturation. By using competitive inhibitors and specific agonists, we demonstrated that this effect is not mediated by the classic Retinoic Acid Receptor (RAR) and Retinoid X Receptors (RXR). RA did not affect the protein expression levels of upstream regulators of autophagy, such as Beclin-1, phospho-mTOR, and phospho-Akt1, but induced redistribution of both endogenous cation-independent mannose-6-phosphate receptor CI-MPR and transiently transfected GFP and RFP full-length CI-MPR fusion proteins from the trans-Golgi region to acidified AUT structures. Those structures were found to be amphisomes (acidified AUTs) and not autophagolysosomes. The critical role of CI-MPR in AUT maturation was further demonstrated by siRNA-mediated silencing of endogenous CI-MPR. Transient CI-MPR knockdown resulted in remarkable accumulation of nonacidified AUTs, a process that could not be reversed with RA.These results suggest that RA induces AUT acidification and maturation by regulating CI-MPR subcellular location, a process critical in the cellular autophagic mechanism.
