  • プロフィール

    奈良女子大学へ移ってからの研究の基本的なスタンスは、「自分たちで遺伝子改変マウスを作製して、改変遺伝子の成体での生理機能を正常細胞・組織、病態誘導状況下の細胞・組織で解析する」です。このために、対象とする遺伝子は(1)細胞内小胞輸送関連遺伝子、(2)病態との関連が推定されているような遺伝子、として、正常発生時、成体時や病態誘導時(白血病、皮膚がん、神経変性症)における変化を組織レベル・細胞レベルで解析しようと努力している。
    学生の入れ替わりサイクルが短くて慣れませんが、出来ないことはしょうがない、できることに「自分史上最大限の努力」をしています。

Luis Espinoza; Takahiro Kumode; Akira Tanimura; Yasuyoshi Morita; Yoichi Tatsumi; Takafumi Yokota; Kenji Oritani; Toshio Watanabe; Yuzuru Kanakura; Itaru Matsumura, Mutated receptor tyrosine kinases (MT-RTKs) such as internal tandem duplication of FMS-like tyrosine kinase 3 (FLT3 ITD) and a point mutation KIT D816V are driver mutations for acute myeloid leukemia (AML). Clathrin assembly lymphoid myeloid leukemia protein (CALM) regulates intracellular transport of RTKs, however, the precise role for MT-RTKs remains elusive. We here show that CALM knock down leads to severely impaired FLT3 ITD- or KIT D814V-dependent cell growth compared to marginal influence on wild-type FLT3- or KIT-mediated cell growth. An antipsychotic drug chlorpromazine (CPZ) suppresses the growth of primary AML samples, and human CD34+CD38- AML cells including AML initiating cells with MT-RTKs in vitro and in vivo. Mechanistically, CPZ reduces CALM protein at post transcriptional level and perturbs the intracellular localization of MT-RTKs, thereby blocking their signaling. Our study presents a therapeutic strategy for AML with MT-RTKs by altering the intracellular localization of MT-RTKs using CPZ., 2020年, 11, 1, 4147, 4147, 研究論文(学術雑誌), 国際誌, 10.1038/s41467-020-17666-8

  • 査読あり, 英語, PLOS ONE, Behavioral and neurological analyses of adult mice carrying null and distinct loss-of-receptor function mutations in protein tyrosine phosphatase receptor type Z (PTPRZ)., Naomi Tanga; Kazuya Kuboyama; Ayako Kishimoto; Miho Kihara; Hiroshi Kiyonari; Toshio Watanabe; Akihiro Fujikawa; Masaharu Noda, Protein tyrosine phosphatase receptor type Z (PTPRZ) is preferentially expressed in the central nervous system as two transmembrane receptor isoforms PTPRZ-A/B and one secretory isoform PTPRZ-S. Ptprz-knockout mice lacking the expression of all three isoforms show behavioral, learning, and neurological abnormalities, including increased exploratory activities to novelty, deficits in spatial and contextual learning, and reduced responses to methamphetamine, relative to wild-type mice. To investigate whether PTPRZ isoforms play distinct physiological roles, we herein performed behavioral studies on two knock-in mouse lines: One expresses the catalytically inactive Cys-1930 to Ser (CS) mutants of PTPRZ-A/B, while the other generated in the present study expresses catalytically active mutants of PTPRZ-A/B lacking the negative regulatory PTP-D2 domain and C-terminal PDZ-binding motif (ΔD2) instead of wild-type PTPRZ-A/-B. In contrast to Ptprz-knockout mice, neither increased responses to novelty in the open field nor memory impairments in the inhibitory-avoidance task were observed in Ptprz-CS or Ptprz-ΔD2 mice. However, the effects of methamphetamine on locomotor activity were significantly weaker in Ptprz-KO mice and CS mutant mice than in wild-type mice, but were normal in ΔD2 mutant mice. Furthermore, microdialysis experiments revealed that methamphetamine-evoked dopamine release in the nucleus accumbens was reduced in Ptprz-KO mice and CS mutant mice. These results suggest that the extracellular region of PTPRZ, including the secretory isoform, is crucial for behavioral responses to novelty and the formation of aversive memories, whereas the PTPase activities of PTPRZ receptor isoforms are involved in regulating the dopaminergic system., 2019年07月, 14, 6, e0217880, 研究論文(学術雑誌), 国際誌, 10.1371/journal.pone.0217880

However, PKM2 function in tumorigenesis remains controversial. Here, we show that, when expressed rather than PKM2, the PKM isoform PKM1 exhibits a tumor-promoting function in KRASG12D-induced or carcinogen-initiated mouse models or in some human cancers. Analysis of Pkm mutant mouse lines expressing specific PKM isoforms established that PKM1 boosts tumor growth cell intrinsically. PKM1 activated glucose catabolism and stimulated autophagy/mitophagy, favoring malignancy. Importantly, we observed that pulmonary neuroendocrine tumors (NETs), including small-cell lung cancer (SCLC), express PKM1, and that PKM1 expression is required for SCLC cell proliferation. Our findings provide a rationale for targeting PKM1 therapeutically in certain cancer subtypes, including pulmonary NETs., 2018年03月12日, 33, 3, 355, 367, 研究論文(学術雑誌), 国際誌, 10.1016/j.ccell.2018.02.004

  • 査読あり, 英語, Molecular Cancer Research, The BRCA1-interacting protein OLA1 requires the interaction with BARD1 to regulate centrosome number., 渡邊 利雄; uki Yoshino; Huicheng Qi; Hiroki Fujita; Matsuyuki Shirota; Shun Abe; Yuhei Komiyama; Kazuha Shindo; Masahiro Nakayama; Ayako Matsuzawa; Akihiro Kobayashi; Honami Ogoh; Toshio Watanabe; Chikashi Ishioka; Natsuko Chiba, BRCA1 functions as a tumor suppressor in DNA repair and centrosome regulation. Previously, Obg-like ATPase 1 (OLA1) was shown to interact with BARD1, a heterodimer partner of BRCA1. OLA1 binds to BRCA1, BARD1, and γ-tubulin and functions in centrosome regulation. This study determined that overexpression of wild-type OLA1 (OLA1-WT) caused centrosome amplification due to centriole overduplication in mammary tissue-derived cells. Centrosome amplification induced by overexpression of the cancer-derived OLA1 mutant, which is deficient at regulating centrosome number, occurred in significantly fewer cells than in that induced by overexpression of OLA1-WT. Thus, it was hypothesized that overexpression of OLA1 with normal function efficiently induces centrosome amplification, but not that of OLA1 mutants, which are deficient at regulating centrosome number. We analyzed whether overexpression of OLA1 missense mutants of nine candidate phosphorylation residues, three residues modified with acetylation, and two ATP-binding residues caused centrosome amplification and identified five missense mutants that are deficient in the regulation of centrosome number. Three of them did not bind to BARD1. Two phosphomimetic mutations restored the binding to BARD1 and the efficient centrosome amplification by their overexpression. Knockdown and overexpression of BARD1 also caused centrosome amplification. BARD1 mutant reported in cancer failed to bind to OLA1 and rescue the BARD1 knockdown-induced centrosome amplification and reduced its centrosomal localization. Combined, these data reveal that the OLA1-BARD1 interaction is important for the regulation of centrosome number.Implications: Regulation of centrosome number by BRCA1/BARD1 together with OLA1 is important for the genome integrity to prevent tumor development.

  • 査読あり, 英語, Scientific reports, Mllt10 knockout mouse model reveals critical role of Af10-dependent H3K79 methylation in midfacial development., Honami Ogoh; Kazutsune Yamagata; Tomomi Nakao; Lisa L Sandell; Ayaka Yamamoto; Aiko Yamashita; Naomi Tanga; Mai Suzuki; Takaya Abe; Issay Kitabayashi; Toshio Watanabe; Daisuke Sakai, Epigenetic regulation is required to ensure the precise spatial and temporal pattern of gene expression that is necessary for embryonic development. Although the roles of some epigenetic modifications in embryonic development have been investigated in depth, the role of methylation at lysine 79 (H3K79me) is poorly understood. Dot1L, a unique methyltransferase for H3K79, forms complexes with distinct sets of co-factors. To further understand the role of H3K79me in embryogenesis, we generated a mouse knockout of Mllt10, the gene encoding Af10, one Dot1L complex co-factor. We find homozygous Mllt10 knockout mutants (Mllt10-KO) exhibit midline facial cleft. The midfacial defects of Mllt10-KO embryos correspond to hyperterolism and are associated with reduced proliferation of mesenchyme in developing nasal processes and adjacent tissue. We demonstrate that H3K79me level is significantly decreased in nasal processes of Mllt10-KO embryos. Importantly, we find that expression of AP2α, a gene critical for midfacial development, is directly regulated by Af10-dependent H3K79me, and expression AP2α is reduced specifically in nasal processes of Mllt10-KO embryos. Suppression of H3K79me completely mimicked the Mllt10-KO phenotype. Together these data are the first to demonstrate that Af10-dependent H3K79me is essential for development of nasal processes and adjacent tissues, and consequent midfacial formation., 2017年09月20日, 7, 1, 11922, 11922, 国際誌, 10.1038/s41598-017-11745-5

However, the physiological function of PPM1L in the brain is unclear. In this study, we generated and analyzed ppm1l-deficient mice in order to investigate PPM1L functions in the brain. Our results indicate that ppm1l is highly expressed in the central nervous system during mouse development and that ppm1l(Delta/Delta) mice display impaired motor performance and morphological abnormalities in the forebrain. Electron microscopic and immunohistochemical analyses suggest that these abnormalities are due to impaired axonal tract formation. Our novel findings suggest an important role for PPM1L in brain development., 2016年10月, 590, 20, 3606, 3615, 研究論文(学術雑誌), 10.1002/1873-3468.12429
  • 査読あり, 英語, HUMAN MOLECULAR GENETICS, Partial loss of CALM function reduces A beta 42 production and amyloid deposition in vivo, Kunihiko Kanatsu; Yukiko Hori; Sho Takatori; Toshio Watanabe; Takeshi Iwatsubo; Taisuke Tomita, Aberrant production, clearance and deposition of amyloid-beta protein (A beta) in the human brain have been implicated in the aetiology of Alzheimer disease (AD). gamma-Secretase is the enzyme responsible for generating various Ab species, such as A beta 40 and toxic A beta 42. Recently, genome-wide association studies in late-onset AD patients have identified the endocytosis-related phosphatidylinositol-binding clathrin assembly protein (PICALM) gene as a genetic risk factor for AD. We previously found that the loss of expression of CALM protein encoded by PICALM affects the ratio of production of A beta 42, through the regulation of the clathrin-mediated endocytosis of c-secretase. Here, we show that the binding capacity of the assembly protein 180 N-terminal homology (ANTH) domain of CALM to phosphatidylinositol-4,5-biphosphate, as well as to nicastrin, is critical to the modulation of the internalization of gamma-secretase and to the A beta 42 production ratio. Moreover, reduction of CALM decreases Ab deposition as well as brain levels of insoluble A beta 42 in vivo. These results suggest that CALM expression modifies AD risk by regulating Ab pathology., 2016年09月, 25, 18, 3988, 3997, 研究論文(学術雑誌), 10.1093/hmg/ddw239
  • 査読あり, 英語, MECHANISMS OF DEVELOPMENT, The protein phosphatase 6 catalytic subunit (Ppp6c) is indispensable for proper post-implantation embryogenesis, Honami Ogoh; Nobuhiro Tanuma; Yasuhisa Matsui; Natsuki Hayakawa; Ayaka Inagaki; Mami Sumiyoshi; Yuki Momoi; Ayako Kishimoto; Mai Suzuki; Nozomi Sasaki; Tsukasa Ohuchi; Miyuki Nomura; Yuriko Teruya; Keiko Yasuda; Toshio Watanabe; Hiroshi Shima, Ppp6c, which encodes the catalytic subunit of phosphoprotein phosphatase 6 (PP6), is conserved among eukaryotes from yeast to humans. In mammalian cells, PP6 targets I kappa B epsilon for degradation, activates DNA-dependent protein kinase to trigger DNA repair, and is reportedly required for normal mitosis. Recently, Ppp6c mutations were identified as candidate drivers of melanoma and skin cancer. Nonetheless, little is known about the physiological role of Ppp6c. To investigate this function in vivo, we established mice lacking the Ppp6c phosphatase domain by crossing heterozygous mutants. No viable homozygous pups were born, indicative of a lethal mutation. Ppp6c homozygous mutant embryos were identified among blastocysts, which exhibited a normal appearance, but embryos degenerated by E7.5 and showed clear developmental defects at E8.5, suggesting that mutant embryos die after implantation. Accordingly, homozygous blastocysts showed significant growth failure of the inner cellmass (ICM) in in vitro blastocyst culture, and primary Ppp6c exon4-deficient MEFs showed greatly reduced proliferation. These results establish for the first time that the Ppp6c phosphatase domain is indispensable for mouse embryogenesis after implantation. (C) 2016 Elsevier Ireland Ltd.

  • 査読あり, 英語, CANCER LETTERS, Loss of protein phosphatase 6 in mouse keratinocytes increases susceptibility to ultraviolet-B-induced carcinogenesis, Hiroyuki Kato; Koreyuki Kurosawa; Yui Inoue; Nobuhiro Tanuma; Yuki Momoi; Katsuhisa Hayashi; Honami Ogoh; Miyuki Nomura; Masato Sakayori; Yoichiro Kakugawa; Yoji Yamashita; Koh Miura; Makoto Maemondo; Ryuichi Katakura; Shigemi Ito; Masami Sato; Ikuro Sato; Natsuko Chiba; Toshio Watanabe; Hiroshi Shima, We previously reported that deficiency in the gene encoding the catalytic subunit of protein phosphatase 6 (Ppp6c) predisposes mouse skin tissue to papilloma formation initiated by DMBA. Here, we demonstrate that Ppp6c loss acts as a tumor promoter in UVB-induced squamous cell carcinogenesis. Following UVB irradiation, mice with Ppp6c-deficient keratinocytes showed a higher incidence of skin squamous cell carcinoma than did control mice. Time course experiments showed that following UVB irradiation, Ppp6c-deficient keratinocytes upregulated expression of p53, PUMA, BAX, and cleaved caspase-3 proteins. UVB-induced tumors in Ppp6c-deficient keratinocytes exhibited a high frequency of both p53- and gamma H2AX-positive cells, suggestive of DNA damage. Epidemiological and molecular data strongly suggest that UVB from sunlight induces p53 gene mutations in keratinocytes and is the primary causative agent of human skin cancers. Our analysis suggests that PP6 deficiency underlies molecular events that drive outgrowth of initiated keratinocytes harboring UVB-induced mutated p53. Understanding PP6 function in preventing UV-induced tumorigenesis could suggest strategies to prevent and treat this condition. (C) 2015 Elsevier Ireland Ltd.

These factors reportedly exert distinct functions in membrane trafficking, as manifested by different phenotypes seen in single knockout mice. The present study investigated whether SMAP proteins interact genetically. We report for the first time that simultaneous loss of SMAP1 and SMAP2 promotes apoptosis in the distal region of E7.5 mouse embryos, likely resulting in embryonic lethality. Thus, at least one SMAP gene, either SMAP1 or SMAP2, is required for proper embryogenesis. (C) 2015 Federation of European Biochemical Societies. Published by Elsevier B.V.

Shima, Somatic mutations in the gene encoding the catalytic subunit of protein phosphatase 6 (Ppp6c) have been identified in malignant melanoma and are thought to function as a driver in B-raf-or N-ras-driven tumorigenesis. To assess the role of Ppp6c in carcinogenesis, we generated skin keratinocyte-specific Ppp6c conditional knockout mice and performed two-stage skin carcinogenesis analysis. Ppp6c deficiency induced papilloma formation with 7,12-dimethylbenz (a) anthracene (DMBA) only, and development of those papillomas was significantly accelerated compared with that seen following DMBA/TPA (12-O-tetradecanoylphorbol 13-acetate) treatment of wild-type mice. NF-kappa B activation either by tumor necrosis factor (TNF)-alpha or interleukin (IL)-1 beta was enhanced in Ppp6c-deficient keratinocytes. Overall, we conclude that Ppp6c deficiency predisposes mice to skin carcinogenesis initiated by DMBA. This is the first report showing that such deficiency promotes tumor formation in mice., 2015年08月, 34, 35, 4647, 4655, 研究論文(学術雑誌), 10.1038/onc.2014.398

  • 査読あり, 英語, BIOCHEMICAL AND BIOPHYSICAL RESEARCH COMMUNICATIONS, The ADP-ribosylation factor 1 gene is indispensable for mouse embryonic development after implantation, Natsuki Hayakawa; Honami Ogoh; Mami Sumiyoshi; Yasuhisa Matsui; Saori Nishikawa; Kananko Miyamoto; Yuko Maede; Hiroshi Kiyonari; Mai Suzuki; Toshio Watanabe, ADP-ribosylation factor (Arf) 1 is thought to affect the morphologies of organelles, such as the Golgi apparatus, and regulate protein trafficking pathways. Mice have six Arf isoforms. In knockdown experiments with HeLa cells, no single Arf isoform among Arf1-5 is required for organelle morphologies or any membrane trafficking step. This suggests that the cooperation of two or more Arfs is a general feature. Although many cell biological and biochemical analyses have proven the importance of Arf1, the physiological roles of Arfl in mice remain unknown. To investigate the activity of Arfl in vivo, we established Arf1-deficient mice. Arf(-/-) blastocysts were identified at the expected Mendelian ratio. The appearance of these blastocysts was indistinguishable from that of wild-type and Arf(+/-) blastocysts, and they grew normally in an in vitro culture system. However, Arf(-/-) embryos were degenerated at E5.5, and none survived to E12.5, suggesting that they died soon after implantation. These data establish for the first time that the Arf1 gene is indispensable for mouse embryonic development after implantation. (C) 2014 Elsevier Inc.

  • 査読あり, 英語, PLOS ONE, Clathrin Assembly Protein CALM Plays a Critical Role in KIT Signaling by Regulating Its Cellular Transport from Early to Late Endosomes in Hematopoietic Cells, Shinya Rai; Hirokazu Tanaka; Mai Suzuki; Honami Ogoh; Yasuhiro Taniguchi; Yasuyoshi Morita; Takahiro Shimada; Akira Tanimura; Keiko Matsui; Takafumi Yokota; Kenji Oritani; Kenji Tanabe; Toshio Watanabe; Yuzuru Kanakura; Itaru Matsumura, CALM is implicated in the formation of clathrin-coated vesicles, which mediate endocytosis and intracellular trafficking of growth factor receptors and nutrients. We previously found that CALM-deficient mice suffer from severe anemia due to the impaired clathrin-mediated endocytosis of transferrin receptor in immature erythroblast. However, CALM has been supposed to regulate the growth and survival of hematopoietic stem/progenitor cells. So, in this study, we focused on the function of CALM in these cells. We here show that the number of Linage(-)Sca-1(+)KIT(+) (LSK) cells decreased in the fetal liver of CALM(-/-) mice. Also, colony forming activity was impaired in CALM(-/-) LSK cells. In addition, SCF, FLT3, and TPO-dependent growth was severely impaired in CALM(-/-) LSK cells, while they can normally proliferate in response to IL-3 and IL-6. We also examined the intracellular trafficking of KIT using CALM(-/-) murine embryonic fibroblasts (MEFs) engineered to express KIT. At first, we confirmed that endocytosis of SCF-bound KIT was not impaired in CALM(-/-) MEFs by the internalization assay. However, SCF-induced KIT trafficking from early to late endosome was severely impaired in CALM(-/-) MEFs. As a result, although intracellular KIT disappeared 30 min after SCF stimulation in wild-type (WT) MEFs, it was retained in CALM(-/-) MEFs. Furthermore, SCF-induced phosphorylation of cytosolic KIT was enhanced and prolonged in CALM(-/-) MEFs compared with that in WT MEFs, leading to the excessive activation of Akt. Similar hyperactivation of Akt was observed in CALM(-/-) KIT+ cells. These results indicate that CALM is essential for the intracellular trafficking of KIT and its normal functions. Also, our data demonstrate that KIT located in the early endosome can activate downstream molecules as a signaling endosome. Because KIT activation is involved in the pathogenesis of some malignancies, the manipulation of CALM function would be an attractive therapeutic strategy., 2014年10月, 9, 10, DOI: 10.1371/journal.pone.0109441., 研究論文(学術雑誌), 10.1371/journal.pone.0109441

Certain HOXA cluster genes and MEIS1 genes are upregulated in patients and mouse models that express CALM-AF10. Wild-type clathrin assembly lymphoid myeloid leukemia protein (CALM) primarily localizes in a diffuse pattern within the cytoplasm, whereas AF10 localizes in the nucleus; however, it is not clear where CALM-AF10 acts to induce leukemia. To investigate the influence of localization on leukemogenesis involving CALM-AF10, we determined the nuclear export signal (NES) within CALM that is necessary and sufficient for cytoplasmic localization of CALM-AF10. Mutations in the NES eliminated the capacity of CALM-AF10 to immortalize murine bone-marrow cells invitro and to promote development of acute myeloid leukemia in mouse models. Furthermore, a fusion of AF10 with the minimal NES can immortalize bone-marrow cells and induce leukemia in mice. These results suggest that during leukemogenesis, CALM-AF10 plays its critical roles in the cytoplasm., 2014年03月, 105, 3, 315, 323, 研究論文(学術雑誌), 10.1111/cas.12347

Recently, a single-nucleotide polymorphism in phosphatidylinositol binding clathrin assembly protein (PICALM/CALM) gene, which encodes a protein implicated in the clathrin-mediated endocytosis, was identified as a genetic protective factor for AD, although its mechanistic details have little been explored. Here we show that loss of CALM leads to the selective decrease in the production ratio of the pathogenic A beta species, A beta 42. Active form of gamma-secretase is constitutively endocytosed via the clathrin-mediated pathway in a CALM dependent manner. Alteration in the rate of clathrin-mediated endocytosis of gamma-secretase causes a shift in its steady-state localization, which consequently impacts on the production ratio of A beta 42. Our study identifies CALM as an endogenous modulator of gamma-secretase activity by regulating its endocytosis and also as an excellent target for A beta 42-lowering AD therapeutics., 2014年02月, 5, DOI. 10.1038/ncomms4386., 研究論文(学術雑誌), 10.1038/ncomms4386

In the present study, SMAP2 is detected on the TGN in the pachytene spermatocyte to the round spermatid stages of spermatogenesis. Gene targeting reveals that SMAP2-deficient male mice are healthy and survive to adulthood but are infertile and exhibit globozoospermia. In SMAP2-deficient spermatids, the diameter of proacrosomal vesicles budding from TGN increases, TGN structures are distorted, acrosome formation is severely impaired, and reorganization of the nucleus does not proceed properly. CALM functions to regulate vesicle sizes, and this study shows that CALM is not recruited to the TGN in the absence of SMAP2. Furthermore, syntaxin2, a component of the soluble N-ethylmaleimide-sensitive factor attachment protein receptor (SNARE) complex, is not properly concentrated at the site of acrosome formation. Thus this study reveals a link between SMAP2 and CALM/syntaxin2 in clathrin-coated vesicle formation from the TGN and subsequent acrosome formation.

Recycling endosomes (REs) serve as a sorting station for the retrograde transport and we recently identified evection-2, an RE protein with a pleckstrin homology (PH) domain, as an essential factor of this pathway. How evection-2 regulates retrograde transport from REs to the Golgi is not well understood. Here, we report that evection-2 binds to SMAP2, an Arf GTPase-activating protein. Endogenous SMAP2 localized mostly in REs and to a lesser extent, the trans-Golgi network (TGN). SMAP2 binds evection-2, and the RE localization of SMAP2 was abolished in cells depleted of evection-2. Knockdown of SMAP2, like that of evection-2, impaired the retrograde transport of cholera toxin B subunit (CTxB) from REs. These findings suggest that evection-2 recruits SMAP2 to REs, thereby regulating the retrograde transport of CTxB from REs to the Golgi., 2013年07月, 8, 7, e69145. doi:10.1371/journal.pone.0069145, 研究論文(学術雑誌), 10.1371/journal.pone.0069145

We previously identified SMAP1 as an ARF6 GTPase-activating protein that functions in clathrin-dependent endocytosis. Because abnormalities in clathrin-dependent trafficking are often associated with oncogenesis, we targeted Smap1 in mice to examine its physiological and pathological significance. Smap1-deficent mice exhibited healthy growth, but their erythroblasts showed enhanced transferrin endocytosis. In mast cells cultured in SCF, Smap1 deficiency did not affect the internalization of c-KIT but impaired the sorting of internalized c-KIT from multivesicular bodies to lysosomes, resulting in intracellular accumulation of undegraded c-KIT that was accompanied by enhanced activation of ERK and increased cell growth. Interestingly, approximately 50% of aged Smap1-deficient mice developed anemia associated with morphologically dysplastic cells of erythroid-myeloid lineage, which are hematological abnormalities similar to myelodysplastic syndrome (MDS) in humans. Furthermore, some Smap1-deficient mice developed acute myeloid leukemia (AML) of various subtypes. Collectively, to our knowledge these results provide the first evidence in a mouse model that the deregulation of clathrin-dependent membrane trafficking may be involved in the development of MDS and subsequent AML., 2013年03月, 123, 3, 1123, 1137, 研究論文(学術雑誌), 10.1172/JCI63711

Although the transgene is not expressed, mice that are hemizygous for the transgene show skull and paw deformities when the progeny receive the transgene paternally. To elucidate the molecular mechanisms underlying the mutant phenotype and the modified transmission pattern of the Adp phenotype, a junctional fragment around the transgene integration site was cloned. The transgene was inserted into the intronic sequences between exon 3 and exon 4 of the Mdga2 gene and the degree of methylation of the transgene and the severity of the phenotype were reciprocally related in that the transgene was highly or under methylated in normal and deformed mice, respectively. Thus, methylation of the transgene appears to regulate phenotypic expression and imprinting of Adp. (C) 2012 Elsevier Inc.

CALM is sufficient to drive clathrin assembly in vitro on lipid monolayers and regulates clathrin-coated budding and the size and shape of the vesicles at the plasma membrane. However, the physiological role of CALM has yet to be elucidated. Here, the role of CALM in vivo was investigated using CALM-deficient mice. CALM-deficient mice exhibited retarded growth in utero and were dwarfed throughout their shortened life-spans. Moreover, CALM-deficient mice suffered from severe anemia, and the maturation and iron content in erythroid precursors were severely impaired. CALM-deficient erythroid cells and embryonic fibroblasts exhibited impaired clathrin-mediated endocytosis of transferrin.

We have found that VAPA and Scs2p have three prolines present in a conserved region however VAPB has only two prolines in this region. Consequently, this mutation in VAPB (VAPB(P56S)) leaves a single proline in this region whereas other VAPs can retain two proline residues even if the proline equivalent to the Pro-56 is substituted. When Scs2p and VAPA were mutated to be equivalent to VAPB(P56S) in terms of the distribution of proline residues in this region, Scs2p became inactive and aggregated, and VAPA localize to membranous aggregates indistinguishable from those induced by VAPB(P56S). This suggests that the appropriate distribution of three conserved prolines, not the existence of a particular proline, confers VAPA and Scs2p resistance to the Pro-56 mutation and, therefore, is critical for VAR activities.

The recruitment of some effectors, including vesicle coat proteins, is mediated by the ADP-ribosylation factor (Art) family. Arf proteins have distinct subcellular localizations. ArfGAPs (Arf GTPase-activating proteins) regulate Arf GTPase activity. Thus, each ArfGAP is distinctly localized to allow it to maintain a specific interaction with its target Arf(s). However, the domains that regulate the subcellular localization of ArfGAPs and the way in which these subcellular localizations affect the target specificities of ArfGAPs remain unclear. Recently, we identified two novel ArfGAPs, SMAP1 (Small ArfGAP protein 1) and SMAP2. In the current study, we identified sequences in the carboxy-terminal region of SMAP2 that are critical for its specific subcellular localization and its specificity for Arf proteins.

Ronn; Yuji Henmi; Yuka Kobayashi; Toshio Watanabe; Keiko Nakayama; Kenji Tanabe; Masanobu Satake, SMAP2 is an Arf GTPase-activating protein that is located and functions on early endosome membranes. In the present study, the trans-Golgi network (TGN) was verified as an additional site of SMAP2 localization based on its co-localization with various TGN-marker proteins. Mutation of specific stretches of basic amino acid residues abolished the TGN-localization of SMAP2. Over-expression of wild-type SMAP2, but not of the mutated SMAP2, inhibited the transport of vesicular stomatitis virus-G protein from the TGN to the plasma membrane. In contrast, this transport was enhanced in SMAP2 (-/-) cells characterized by increased levels of the activated form of Arf. SMAP2 therefore belongs to an ArfGAP subtype that resides on the TGN and functions as a negative regulator of vesicle budding from the organelle., 2011年, 36, 1, 83, 95, 研究論文(学術雑誌), 10.1247/csf.10022

Here, we investigated the expression profiles of LPA receptors and patterns of LPA-induced migration in gastric cancer cells. Northern blot analysis revealed that various gastric cancer cells expressed variable levels of LPA1, LPA2, and LPA3 without a consistent pattern. Using a Boyden chamber assay, LPA markedly increased cell migration of LPA1-expressing cells, the effects of which were almost totally abrogated by Kil6425, anLPA antagonist against LPA1 and LPA3. In contrast, LPA by itself did not significantly induce migration in MKN28 and MKN74 cells, which exclusively expressed LPA2. However, when hepatocyte growth factor (HGF) was placed with LPA in the lower chamber, LPA induced migration of these cells in a dose-dependent manner. Inummoprecipitation analysis revealed that LPA induced transient tyrosine phosphorylation of c-Met in LPA2-expressing cells, which suggests that the transactivation of c-Met by LPA causes a cooperative migratory response with HGF to these cells. Our results indicate that LPA regulates the migration of gastric cancer cells in a receptor-specific manner and suggest that the expression pattern of LPA receptors may affect the metastatic behavior of gastric cancer.

We investigated whether the introduction of CD4 T cells specific to a microflora would initiate colitis and assessed the cytokine requirements for colitogenic CD4 T cells. Methods: Severe combined immunodeficiency disease (SCID) mice were reconstituted with CD4 T cells, which were either deficient in interleukin (IL)-4/interferon (IFN)-gamma production or differentiated in vitro to T-helper (Th) 1/Th 2 and bearing a transgenic T-cell receptor (TCR) specific to ovalbumin (OVA), and then inoculated with an Escherichia coli-producing OVA (ECOVA). Clinical and histologic manifestations of colitis were assessed. Results: Mice with ECOVA colonization and OVA-specific CD4 T cells developed colitis with histologic features of focal infiltration by mononuclear cells, destruction of crypts, and loss of goblet cells. Further, infiltration was initiated in pre-existing lymph follicles. Th1- and IL-4 deficient T cells were diffusely localized in the lamina propria and submucosa, whereas Th2- and IFN-gamma-deficient T cells were localized preferentially in lymph follicles. Conclusions: A microbe-associated antigen, non-cross-reactive to colonic tissue, can drive antigen-specific CD4 T cells to cause colitis in SCID mice. Although the presence of IFN-gamma and IL-4 in the effector CD4 T cells was not an absolute requirement for the development of colitis, they seemed to regulate it in part by modulating migration of the effector T cells., 2002年12月, 123, 6, 1949, 1961, 研究論文(学術雑誌), 10.1053/gast.2002.37049

The SP cells then pass through a step of maturation in the medulla and are delivered to peripheral lymphoid tissues, We examined the role of AML1, the gene encoding a transcription factor, in the above processes by using the transgenic mice expressing a dominant interfering form of AML1 as well as mice targeted heterozygously for AML1. One phenotypic change seen in the AML1-diminished mice was the reduction in the numbers of both CD4 SP and CD8 SP thymocytes, reflecting the partial impairment of the transition from the double-positive to SP stage. In addition, distinct from the above abnormality, perturbed were several aspects of SP cells, including the maturation of SP thymocytes, the recent thymic emigration, and the proliferative responsiveness of peripheral T cells to TCR stimulation. Interestingly, the AML1 diminution caused inhibitory and enhancing effects on the CD4 SP and CD8 SP cells, respectively. These differential effects are most likely related to the reduction in the peripheral CD4 SP/CD8 SP ratio observed in the AML1-diminished mice. The AML1 transcription factor thus maintains the homeostasis of each SP subset by functioning at the later stages of T lymphocyte differentiation., 2000年12月, 165, 12, 6816, 6824, 研究論文(学術雑誌)

The polypeptide encoded by the chimeric gene, PEBP2 beta/CBF beta-SMMHC, retains the ability to interact with, and dominantly interfere with the function of proteins possessing the Runt homology domain. The Runt protein homologs constitute the DNA binding subunit of the PEBP2/CBF transcription factor. We examined the subcellular localization of PEBP2 beta/CBF beta-SMMHC, as well as that of Runt protein homologs in leukemic cells carrying inversion 16 by immunoblot analysis. A significant amount of the PEBP2 beta/CBF beta-SMMHC protein was recovered from the nuclear fraction along with the Runt protein homologs. Furthermore, some of both polypeptides was retained in the DNA pellet that represents the material remaining after extraction of nuclear fraction with high salt. These observations suggest that the so-called dominant interfering effect of PEBP2 beta/CBF beta-SMMHC on PEBP2/CBF occurs inside the nucleus. In addition, we could detect PEBP2 beta/CBF beta-SMMHC in the cytoplasmic membrane fraction as well. The function of this membrane-located PEBP2 beta/CBF beta-SMMHC, if any, appears to be unrelated to that of Runt protein homologs., 2000年07月, 14, 7, 1253, 1259, 研究論文(学術雑誌)

The activity of colony-forming units of colonies from the P-Sp/AGM region was reduced severalfold by heterozygous disruption of the AML1 gene, indicating that AML1 functioned in a dosage-dependent manner to generate hematopoietic progenitors. In addition, no hematopoietic progenitor activity was detected in the P-Sp/AGM region of embryos with an AML1 null mutation. Similar results were obtained when a dispersed culture was first prepared from the P-Sp/AGM region before assay of the activity of the colony-forming units. In a culture of cells with the AML1(+)(+) genotype, both hematopoietic and endothelial-like cell types emerged, but in a culture of cells with the AML1(-/-) genotype, only endothelial-like cells emerged. Interestingly, introduction of AML1 cDNA into the P-Sp/AGM culture with the AML1(-/-) genotype partially restored the production of hematopoietic cells. This restoration was observed for cultures prepared from 9.5-day postcoitum (dpc) embryos but not for cultures prepared from 11.5-dpc embryos. Therefore, the population of endothelial-like cells capable of growing in the AML1(-/-) culture would appear to contain inert but nonetheless competent hematogenic precursor cells up until at least the 9.5-dpc period. All these results support the notion that the AML1 transcription factor functions to develop and maintain hematogenic precursor cells in the embryonic P-Sp/AGM region.

Hematopoiesis in the embryo is considered to be tightly associated with vascular development, Here ive examined whether PEBP2/CBF plays any role in angiogenesis besides that in definitive hematopoiesis, We found that AML1/ PEBP2 alpha B/CBFa2, PEBP2 alpha A/CBFa1, and PEBP2 beta/ CBFb were expressed in a murine endothelial cell Line MISS31, The expression of these molecules as cell as the DNA binding activity of PEBP2/CBF were augmented by angiogenic growth factors such as bFGF and VEGF. Moreover, the expression of PEBP2 alpha/CBFa protein in endothelial tells was confirmed at the site of angiogenesis in vivo, To further clarify the role of PEBP2/CF in angiogenesis, we established permanent transfectants of PEBP2 beta-MYH11 gene, one that interacts with the runt domain of the alpha subunit and deregulates PEBP2/CBF in a dominant interfering manner. Proliferation, migration, and tube formation of the PEBP2 beta-MYH11 transfectants were significantly reduced in comparison with those activities of the mock transfectants.

Gene-targeted mice lacking the c-Myb transcription factor have severe hematopoietic defects in the fetal liver [4], The role of c-Myb, if any, in P-Sp/AGM hematopoiesis has not been examined, however, Recently, we reported that oncostatin M can effectively expand both hematopoietic and endothelial-like cells from in vitro cultures of the AGM region [5]. Using this cell culture system, we examined the involvement of c-Myb in definitive hematopoiesis in the P-Sp and AGM regions. When primary cultures from the P-Sp or AGM regions of wildtype mouse embryos were probed with an anti-c-Myb antibody, hematopoietic cells but not endothelial like cells showed positive staining. In contrast, in the P-Sp/AGM culture from c-myb(-/-) embryos, no hematopoietic cells were generated and endothelial like cells predominated, indicating that the impairment of hematopoiesis in the liver of c-myb(-/-) embryos is actually preceded by a defect in P-Sp/AGM hematopoiesis. Hematogenic precursor cells were, however, still present in an inert but competent form among the endothelial-like, adherent cell population of c-myb(-/-) P-Sp/AGM cultures. When infected with a retrovirus carrying c-myb cDNA, these cultures gave rise to a significant number of hematopoietic cells. The rescued cells, unlike wild-type hematopoietic cells, were negative for c-Kit (a marker of hematopoietic progenitors), but did express other hematopoietic cell surface markers such as Mac-1, Gr-1 (myeloid markers), CD19, B220, Thy-1.2 (lymphoid markers), and Ter119 (an erythroid marker). Thus, c-Myb plays a role in the generation of hematopoietic cells in the embryonic P-Sp and AGM regions., 1999年07月, 9, 15, 833, 836, 研究論文(学術雑誌), 10.1016/S0960-9822(99)80368-6

Targeting each gene results in an almost identical phenotype, namely the complete lack of definitive hematopoiesis in the fetal liver on embryonic day 11.5 (E11.5). We examined and compared the expression levels of various hematopoiesis-related genes in wild type embryos and in embryos mutated for AML1 or PEBP2 beta/CBF beta. The RNAs were prepared from the yolk sacs of E9.5 embryos, from the aorta-gonad- mesonephros regions of E11.5 embryos and from the livers of E11.5 embryos and RT-PCR was performed to detect various gene transcripts. Transcripts were detected for most of the hematopoiesis-related genes that encode transcription factors, cytokines and cytokine receptors, even in tissues from homozygously targeted embryos.

The results suggest that the expression of a particular set of hematopoiesis-related genes is closely correlated with the PEBP2/CBF function., 1998年11月, 17, 18, 2287, 2293, 研究論文(学術雑誌), 10.1038/sj.onc.1202151

In addition, the gene is expressed abundantly in T lymphocytes and has been implicated in T cell specific gene expression. In the present study we examined the function of AML1 in T cell receptor (TCR)-mediated, Fas/Fas-ligand dependent apoptosis of a T hybridoma Line, DO11.10, Several independent cell clones overexpressing the AML1 protein were isolated by transfecting AML1 cDNA into these cells. These clones possessed an increased level of PEBP2/CBF DNA binding activity and were found to be resistant to apoptosis induced by anti-CD3 antibody treatment. Northern blot analysis revealed that induction of the Fas-ligand transcript was markedly suppressed in the anti-CD3 treated clones. Instead, expression of IL-2 receptor alpha subunit (IL-2R alpha), which is a manifestation of proliferative TCR signaling, was induced. This was in contrast to the parental, anti-CD3 treated DO11.10 cells where induction of Fas-ligand but not of IL-2R alpha was observed. Resistance of the AML1 overexpressing cell clones to TCR-mediated apoptosis is most likely attributable to the lack of Fas-ligand induction, since simultaneous treatment with anti-CD3 and anti-Fas antibodies caused apoptosis of the clones. The overall results suggest that the AML1 protein may play a pivotal role in switching TCR signaling between apoptosis and cell proliferation in T lymphocytes., 1998年10月, 17, 14, 1813, 1820, 研究論文(学術雑誌), 10.1038/sj.onc.1202087

The PEBP2 beta/CBF beta portion of the chimeric polypeptide harbors most of the amino acid sequence of the PEBP2 beta/CBF beta protein, the non-DNA. binding subunit of the heterodimeric transcription factor, PEBP2/CBF, whereas the SMMHC portion of the chimera consists of the rod domain of the smooth muscle myosin heavy chain molecule. In this study we examined the subcellular localization of the chimeric protein land its effect both on stress fibers and transcriptional activation by transfecting cDNA into tissue culture cells. The localization of the chimera was investigated by immunocytochemical staining of cells and was found to be both cytoplasmic and nuclear, One aspect of the effect of expression of the chimera was a drastic alteration of cell morphology, The cells appeared elongated and possessed long cytoplasmic processes. Double fluorescent labeling revealed disorganization of the stress fibers and an altered F-actin staining pattern in the transfected cells. Studies using a deletion mutant showed that both the PEBP2 beta/CBF beta and SMMHC domains are necessary for the induction of the morphological alteration, A significant proportion of the chimeric protein was retained in the cytoskeleton after detergent extraction of the cells and could be recuperated as a membrane fraction, suggesting that this is one of the probable sites of action of the PEBP2 beta/CBF beta-SMMHC protein. Another effect of the chimeric protein was inhibition of transcriptional activation dependent on the PEBP2/CBF binding DNA sequence. However, deregulation of PEBP2/CBF site dependent transcription by itself was not sufficient to induce cell morphological changes. Taken together, these results indicate that the PEBP2 beta/CBF beta-SMMHC chimeric protein acts at two levels, at the level of stress fiber organization and at the level of transcriptional activation. We suggest that the action of PEBP2 beta/CBF beta-SMMHC depends to a great extent on whether it is located in the cytoplasm or in the nucleus., 1998年08月, 17, 6, 699, 708, 研究論文(学術雑誌), 10.1038/sj.onc.1201985

To examine the expression of the PEBP2 beta/CBF beta protein in vivo, we carried out immunohistochemistry using the tissues from adult mice as well as embryos, Although PEBP2 beta/CBF beta was detected in various tissues to various degrees, interesting features of expression were observed in the skeletal myogenic cells. Here PEBP2 beta/CBF beta was found mainly to occur as cytoplasmic staining and the intensity of this staining increased depending on the differentiation stage of the cells, In the undifferentiated myoblasts PEBP2 beta/CBF beta was undetectable, whereas moderate levels of PEBP2 beta/CBF beta were detected in the elongated and aligned myocytes. PEBP2 beta/CBF beta appeared to accumulate further when the cells fused to each other to become multinucleated myotubes, Once the muscle fibers were established, PEBP2 beta/CBF beta was relocated onto or around the Z-lines. PEBP2 beta/CBF beta was also detected in the cytoplasm of cardiac myocytes and in the smooth muscle cells of the digestive tract. In all the above, the skeletal myotubes were the only case that showed both nuclear and cytoplasmic staining of PEBP2 beta/CBF beta. Thus, we could show differentiation dependent pattern of PEBP2 beta/CBF beta expression in muscle development and establish PEBP2 beta/CBF beta to be a cytoplasmic as well as nuclear protein in vivo., 1997年05月, 14, 21, 2543, 2552, 研究論文(学術雑誌), 10.1038/sj.onc.1201109

Gek1 is preferentially expressed in meiotic testicular germ cells and primordial germ cells. Gek1 mRNA is also detected in several other tissues, including hematopoietic organs in adult mice and central nervous system in embryos. The Gek1 cDNA encodes a protein with the consensus sequence of the catalytic domain of protein kinases in its N-terminal region. The deduced amino acid sequence of Gek1 in the kinase domain is related to those encoded by the Saccharomyces cerevisiae STE20, CDC15, and Drosophila melanogaster ninaC. The patterns of expression and the structural features of Gek1 suggest that the gene product is involved in signal transduction or nuclear division of germ cells and other proliferating cells. We also show that Gek1 locates on chromosome 11, near the wr locus, showing neuronal and reproductive defects.

  • 査読あり, 英語, DEVELOPMENTAL BIOLOGY, A receptor tyrosine kinase, sky, and its ligand gas 6 are expressed in gonads and support primordial germ cell growth or survival in culture, N Matsubara; Y Takahashi; Y Nishina; Y Mukouyama; M Yanagisawa; T Watanabe; T Nakano; K Nomura; H Arita; Y Nishimune; M Obinata; Y Matsui, Although a number of growth factors and their receptors are involved in the proliferation and differentiation of primordial germ cells (PGCs), the only factor that has been shown to be active in vivo is Steel factor, a ligand for c-Kit. To identify new growth factor receptors that may be required for PGCs function in vivo, we used an reverse transcription-polymerase chain reaction-based strategy to screen for protein kinase genes expressed in PGC-derived embryonic germ cells. We report here that one such gene encoding the receptor tyrosine kinase, Sky, is expressed in both PGCs and their supporting cells in male genital ridges after 11.5 dpc. Interestingly, Sky expression was not detected in female genital ridges, although transcripts were detected in supporting cells in the developing ovary at later stages. Gas 6, a ligand for Sky, was also expressed in interstitial cells which surround Sky positive cells in genital ridges, and, in addition, it supported PGC growth or survival in culture. After birth, Sky expression in testis was restricted to Sertoli cells, and Gas 6 was detected around peritubular cells and Leydig cells. These results suggest that Gas 6-Sky signaling plays a role in PGC growth, sexual differentiation, and Sertoli cell functions in vivo. Sky expression in Sertoli cells diminished by 3 weeks of age, when haploid germ cells first appear. On the other hand, the expression in Sertoli cells was markedly upregulated in the testis of germ cell-deficient W/W-V and jsd/jsd mice. The results suggest that signals from differentiated germ cells suppress Sky gene expression in Sertoli cells. High-resolution chromosomal mapping of Sky is also reported.

In Drosophila, it was reported that PP6 suppresses tumorigenicity of mutant RAS. However, the information how PP6 regulates oncogenic RAS in mammals is limited. METHODS: We examined the effects of PP6 gene (Ppp6c) deficiency on tongue tumor development in K (K-rasG12D)- and KP (K-rasG12D + Trp53-deficient)-inducible mice. RESULTS: Mice of K and KP genotypes developed squamous cell carcinoma in situ in the tongue approximately 2 weeks after the induction of Ppp6c deficiency and was euthanized due to 20% loss of body weight. Transcriptome analysis revealed significantly different gene expressions between tissues of Ppp6c-deficient tongues and those of Ppp6c wild type, while Trp53 deficiency had a relatively smaller effect. We then analyzed genes commonly altered by Ppp6c deficiency, with or without Trp53 deficiency, and identified a group concentrated in KEGG database pathways defined as 'Pathways in Cancer' and 'Cytokine-cytokine receptor interaction'. We then evaluated signals downstream of oncogenic RAS and those regulated by PP6 substrates and found that in the presence of K-rasG12D, Ppp6c deletion enhanced the activation of the ERK-ELK1-FOS, AKT-4EBP1, and AKT-FOXO-CyclinD1 axes. Ppp6c deletion combined with K-rasG12D also enhanced DNA double-strand break (DSB) accumulation and activated NFκB signaling, upregulating IL-1β, COX2, and TNF., 2021年, 10, 13, 4451, 4464, 研究論文(学術雑誌), 国際誌, 10.1002/cam4.3962

At 30 days, a comparative analysis of genes commonly altered in homozygous versus WT Ppp6c cKP mice revealed enhanced activation of Erk and NFκB pathways in homozygotes. By 80 days, the number and size of tumors and number of precancerous lesions had significantly increased in the pancreas of Ppp6c homozygous relative to heterozygous or WT cKP mice. Ppp6c-/- tumors were pathologically diagnosed as pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC) undergoing the epithelial-mesenchymal transition (EMT), and cancer cells had invaded surrounding tissues in three out of six cases. Transcriptome and metabolome analyses indicated an enhanced cancer-specific glycolytic metabolism in Ppp6c-deficient cKP mice and the increased expression of inflammatory cytokines. Individual Ppp6c-/- cKP mice showed weight loss, decreased skeletal muscle and adipose tissue, and increased circulating tumor necrosis factor (TNF)-α and IL-6 levels, suggestive of systemic inflammation. Overall, Ppp6c deficiency in the presence of K-ras mutations and Trp53 gene deficiency promoted pancreatic tumorigenesis with generalized cachexia and early death. This study provided the first evidence that Ppp6c suppresses mouse pancreatic carcinogenesis and supports the use of Ppp6c-deficient cKP mice as a model for developing treatments for cachexia associated with pancreatic cancer., 2022年, 113, 1613, 1624, 研究論文(学術雑誌), 国際誌, 10.1111/cas.15315

Mast cell activation via the high affinity IgE receptor (FcεRI) causes degranulation and release of de novo synthesized proinflammatory cytokines in a process that involves vesicle trafficking. Considering that the GTPase ADP-ribosylation factor 1 (Arf1) orchestrates and maintains membrane traffic and organelle structure, it seems likely that Arf1 contributes to mast cell activation. Actually, it has been reported that pharmaceutical blockade of the Arf1 pathway suppresses cytokine secretion and mast cell degranulation. However, physiological roles of Arf1 in mast cells remain elusive. Here, by using a genetic approach, we demonstrate that Arf1 is required for optimal mTORC1 activation upon IL-3 and facilitates mast cell proliferation. On the other hand, contrary to our expectation, Arf1-deficiency had little impact on FcεRI-induced degranulation nor cytokine secretion. Our findings reveal an unexpected role of Arf1 in mast cell expansion and its potential as a therapeutic target in the mast cell proliferative disorders., 2022年12月, 12, 1, 22297, 研究論文(学術雑誌), 10.1038/s41598-022-26925-1

In the present study, we examined whether the down-regulation of Runx1 is necessary for thymocyte differentiation from the DN to DP stage. When Runx1 was artificially over-expressed in thymocytes by Lck-driven Cre, the DN3 population was unaffected, as exemplified by proper pre-T-cell receptor expression, whereas the DN4 population was perturbed as shown by the decrease in the CD27hi sub-fraction. In parallel, the growth rate of DN4 cells was reduced by half, as measured by bromodeoxyuridine incorporation. These events impaired the transition of DN4 cells to the DP stage, resulting in the drastic reduction of the number of DP thymocytes. The Runx1 gene has two promoters, a proximal and a distal promoter; and, in thymocytes, endogenous Runx1 was mainly transcribed from the distal promoter. Interestingly, only distal, but not proximal, Runx1 over-expression exhibited an inhibitory effect on thymocyte differentiation, suggesting that the distal Runx1 protein may fulfil a unique function.

JNK activation is regulated by phosphorylation of specific tyrosine and threonine residues sequentially catalysed by MKK4 and MKK7, which are both dual-specificity MAPKKs (MAPK kinases). Previously, we reported that tyrosine-phosphorylation of JNK by MKK4 precedes threonine-phosphorylation by MKK7, and that both are required for synergistic JNK activation. In the present study, we identify the actin-binding protein-280 (Filamin A) as a presumed 'binder' protein that can bind to MKK7, as well as to MKK4, connecting them in close proximity. We show that Filamin family members A, B and C interact with MKK4 and MKK7, but not with JNK. Filamin A binds to an N-terminal region (residues 31-60) present in the MKK7 gamma and MKK7 beta splice isoforms, but cannot bind to MKK7 alpha which lacks these amino acids. This same N-terminal region is crucial for the intracellular co-localization of MKK7 gamma with actin stress fibres and Filamin A. Experiments using Filamin-A-deletion mutants revealed that the MKK7-binding region of Filamin A differs from its MKK4-binding region, and that MKK7 gamma (but not MKK7 alpha) can form a complex with Filamin A and MKK4. Finally, we used Filamin-A-deficient cells to show that Filamin A enhances MKK7 activation and is important for synergistic stress-induced JNK activation in vivo. Thus Filamin A is a novel member of the group of scaffold proteins whose function is to link two MAPKKs together and promote JNK activation., 2010年04月, 427, 2, 237, 245, 10.1042/BJ20091011

Previously, we reported that tyrosine-phosphorylation of JNK by MKK4 precedes threonine-phosphorylation by MKK7, and that both are required for synergistic JNK activation. In the present study, we identify the actin-binding protein-280 (Filamin A) as a presumed 'binder' protein that can bind to MKK7, as well as to MKK4, connecting them in close proximity. We show that Filamin family members A, B and C interact with MKK4 and MKK7, but not with JNK. Filamin A binds to an N-terminal region (residues 31-60) present in the MKK7 gamma and MKK7 beta splice isoforms, but cannot bind to MKK7 alpha which lacks these amino acids. This same N-terminal region is crucial for the intracellular co-localization of MKK7 gamma with actin stress fibres and Filamin A. Experiments using Filamin-A-deletion mutants revealed that the MKK7-binding region of Filamin A differs from its MKK4-binding region, and that MKK7 gamma (but not MKK7 alpha) can form a complex with Filamin A and MKK4. Finally, we used Filamin-A-deficient cells to show that Filamin A enhances MKK7 activation and is important for synergistic stress-induced JNK activation in vivo. Thus Filamin A is a novel member of the group of scaffold proteins whose function is to link two MAPKKs together and promote JNK activation., 2010年04月, 427, 2, 237, 245, 10.1042/BJ20091011

However, the cell signaling pathways regulated by PTPRT largely remain to be elucidated. Here, we show that paxillin is a direct substrate of PTPRT and that PTPRT specifically regulates paxillin phosphorylation at tyrosine residue 88 (Y88) in colorectal cancer (CRC) cells. We engineered CRC cells homozygous for a paxillin Y88F knock-in mutant and found that these cells exhibit significantly reduced cell migration and impaired anchorage-independent growth, fail to form xenograft tumors in nude mice, and have decreased phosphorylation of p130CAS, SHP2, and AKT. PTPRT knockout mice that we generated exhibit increased levels of colonic paxillin phosphorylation at residue Y88 and are highly susceptible to carcinogen azoxymethane-induced colon tumor, providing critical in vivo evidence that PTPRT normally functions as a tumor suppressor. Moreover, similarly increased paxillin pY88 is also found as a common feature of human colon cancers.

Liv8 is a cell surface molecule expressed by hematopoietic cells in both fetal liver and adult mouse bone marrow. Here, we report that Liv8 is also transiently expressed by hepatoblasts at E11.5.

  • 査読無し, 英語, Experimental Cell Research, Academic Press Inc., Clathrin dependent endocytosis of E-cadherin is regulated by the Arf6GAP isoform SMAP1, Shunsuke Kon; Kenji Tanabe; Toshio Watanabe; Hisataka Sabe; Masanobu Satake, E-cadherin is a central component of the adherens junction in epithelial cells and continuously undergoes endocytosis via clathrin-coated vesicles and/or caveolae depending on the cell type. In this study, we examined the role of SMAP1, a clathrin-interacting GTPase-activating protein (GAP) for the ADP-ribosylation factor 6 (Arf6) GTPase, in E-cadherin endocytosis. Mardin-Darby canine kidney (MDCK) epithelial cells were used as a model, and SMAP1 localized in the cytoplasm and along the adherens junction where E-cadherin was present. Next, activity of SMAP1 was compared with that of other Arf6GAPs (and/or an effector of Arf6-GTP), namely GIT1 and AMAP2/DDEF2. Overexpression of SMAP1 but not GIT1 nor AMAP2/DDEF2 strongly inhibited basal, as well as phorbolester-induced, internalization of E-cadherin. Notably, AMAP2/DDEF2 rather enhanced the caveolae-mediated incorporation of a membrane protein other than E-cadherin. Thus, in MDCK cells, E-cadherin appeared to be endocytosed solely through SMAP1-regulated clathrin-coated vesicles. Furthermore, MDCK cells overexpressing SMAP1 showed a reduced degree of cell migration compared to untransfected cells, as assessed by wound healing and Transwell assays, and this reduction in migration appeared to be due to the accumulation of E-cadherin at the adherens junction in cells overexpressing SMAP1. Collectively, SMAP1 likely represents a key Arf6GAP in clathrin dependent endocytosis of E-cadherin in MDCK cells. This activity of SMAP1 in E-cadherin turnover may be involved in epithelial organization and/or epithelial-mesenchymal transition. © 2007 Elsevier Inc.

Furthermore, we show that SMAP2 interacts with the clathrin assembly protein CALM.

SMAP2 colocalized with the adaptor proteins for clathrin AP-1 and EpsinR on the early endosomes/trans-Golgi-network (TGN). Moreover, overexpression of SMAP2 delayed the accumulation of TGN38/46 molecule on the TGN. This suggests that SMAP2 functions in the retrograde, early endosome-to-TGN pathway in a clathrin- and AP-1-dependent manner.

Runx3 protein is detected mainly in the CD4(-)8(+) subset of T lymphocytes. In the thymus of Runx3-deficient mice, CD4 expression is de-repressed and CD4(-)8(+) thymocytes do not develop. This clearly implicates Runx3 in CD4 silencing, but does not necessarily prove its role in the differentiation of CD4(-)8(+) thymocytes per se. In the present study, we created transgenic mice that overexpress Runx3 and analyzed the development of thymocytes in these animals. In the Runx3-transgenic thymus, the number of CD4(-)8(+) cells was greatly increased, whereas the numbers of CD4(+)8(+) and CD4(+)8(-) cells were reduced. The CD4(-)8(+) transgenic thymocytes contained mature cells with a TCR(high)HSA(low) phenotype. These cells were released from the thymus and contributed to the elevated level of CD4(-)8(+) cells relative to CD4(+)8(-) cells in the spleen. Runx3 overexpression also increased the number of mature CD4(-)8(+) thymocytes in mice with class II-restricted, transgenic TCR and in mice with a class I-deficient background, both of which are favorable for CD4(+)8(-) lineage selection. Thus, Runx3 can drive thymocytes to select the CD4(-)8(+) lineage. This activity is likely to be due to more than a simple silencing of CD4 gene expression., 2005年03月, 174, 5, 2627, 2636

In the Runx3-transgenic thymus, the number of CD4(-)8(+) cells was greatly increased, whereas the numbers of CD4(+)8(+) and CD4(+)8(-) cells were reduced. The CD4(-)8(+) transgenic thymocytes contained mature cells with a TCR(high)HSA(low) phenotype. These cells were released from the thymus and contributed to the elevated level of CD4(-)8(+) cells relative to CD4(+)8(-) cells in the spleen. Runx3 overexpression also increased the number of mature CD4(-)8(+) thymocytes in mice with class II-restricted, transgenic TCR and in mice with a class I-deficient background, both of which are favorable for CD4(+)8(-) lineage selection. Thus, Runx3 can drive thymocytes to select the CD4(-)8(+) lineage. This activity is likely to be due to more than a simple silencing of CD4 gene expression., 2005年03月, 174, 5, 2627, 2636

To ask whether Runx1 plays a direct role in angiogenesis, we established a novel endothelial progenitor cell line, designated AEL-DeltaR1, from the aorta-gonad-mesonephros ( AGM) region of Runx1-null mouse. We introduced Runx1 cDNA into AEL-DeltaR1 cells under the doxycycline-inducible promoter. The ability of AEL-DeltaR1 cells to form vascular networks on matrigel was highly enhanced by the restored expression of Runx1. By molecular comparison of mRNAs in AEL-DeltaR1 cells before and after the induction of Runx1, we found that mRNA expression of insulin-like growth factor-binding protein 3 (IGFBP-3) is downregulated by Runx1. Gel retardation and reporter assays revealed that Runx1 binds to the promoter region of mouse IGFBP-3 gene and represses its transcription. When IGFBP-3 was exogenously added in the matrigel assay, the angiogenesis-enhancing activity of Runx1 was suppressed in a dose-dependent manner. These results demonstrate that Runx1 is directly involved in angiogenesis by repression of IGFBP-3 mRNA expression., 2005年02月, 24, 7, 1129, 1137, 10.1038/sj.onc.1208287

However, little is known about the involvement of cytoskeletal proteins in this process. The heterodimeric transcription factor PEBP2/CBF is composed of a DNA-binding subunit, Runx1, and a non-DNA-binding subunit, PEBP2 beta/CBF beta. The Runx1 protein possesses nuclear localization signals and is found exclusively in the nucleus, whereas PEBP2 beta is located in the cytoplasm in most cells and tissues examined thus far. We investigated the mechanism by which PEBP2 beta localizes to the cytoplasm and found that it associates with filamin A, an actin-binding cytoskeletal protein. Filamin A retains PEBP2 beta in the cytoplasm, thereby hindering its engagement as a Runx1 partner. When filamin A is absent, PEBP2 beta moves into the nucleus and enhances Runx1-dependent transcription. These observations highlight the significance of the subcellular localization of PEBP2 beta in regulating its activity as a component of the PEBP2/CBF transcription factor. In humans, PEBP2 beta is frequently targeted in the leukemia-associated chromosomal abnormality, inversion 16 (inv 16). Thus, identifying the factors that mediate the subcellular localization of the PEBP2 beta-derived chimeric transcription factor produced by inv 16 is an important issue that will need to be resolved in order to understand the mechanism(s) involved in inv 16-induced leukemogenesis., 2005年, 15, 3, 197, 205

The promoter analysis using 5' upstream region of exon 1 revealed that - 1868 to - 1812 was critical for its transcription in mouse ECs. We identified a motif of the transcription factor PEBP2 in this region, and the deletion or mutation of this motif decreased promoter activity.

The molecular mechanisms governing the complex selection and differentiation steps during thymic T cell development are not well understood. Here we developed a novel approach to investigate gene function during thymocyte development. We transfected ex vivo isolated immature thymocytes with gene-specific morpholino antisense oligonucleotides and induced differentiation in cell or organ cultures. A morpholino oligonucleotide specific for CD8alpha strongly reduces CD8 expression. To our knowledge, this is the first demonstrated gene knockdown by morpholino oligonucleotides in primary lymphocytes. Using this approach, we show here that the transcription factor Runx3 is involved in silencing of CD4 expression during CD8 T cell differentiation. Runx3 protein expression appears late in thymocyte differentiation and is confined to mature CD8 single-positive thymocytes, whereas Runx3 mRNA is transcribed in mature CD4 and CD8 thymocytes. Therefore, Runx3 protein expression is regulated at a post-transcriptional level. The knockdown of Runx3 protein expression through morpholino oligonucleotides inhibited the development of CD4(-)/CD8(+) T cells. Instead, mature cells with a CD4(+)/CD8(+) phenotype accumulated. Potential Runx binding sites were identified in the CD4 gene silencer element, which are bound by Runx protein in EMSAs. Mutagenesis of potential Runx binding sites in the CD4 gene silencer abolished silencing activity in a reporter gene assay, indicating that Runx3 is involved in CD4 gene silencing.

Naive T cells from transgenic mice expressing a dominant interfering form of Runx1 exhibited enhanced interleukin 4 production and efficient Th2 differentiation. In contrast, transduction of Runx1 into wild-type T cells caused a complete attenuation of Th2 differentiation and was accompanied by the cessation of GATA3 expression. Furthermore, endogenous expression of Runx1 in naive T cells declined after T cell receptor stimulation, at the same time that expression of GATA3 increased.

The defective liver formation in sek1(-/-) embryos was not protected by additional tnfr1 mutation, which rescues the embryonic lethality of mice lacking NF-kappaB signaling components. There was a progressive increase in the hepatoblast cell numbers of wild-type embryos from E10.5 to E12.5. Instead, impaired hepatoblast proliferation was observed in sek1(-/-) livers from E10.5, though fetal liver-specific gene expression was normal. The impaired phenotype in sek1(-/-) livers was more severe than in c-jun(-/-) embryos, and sek1(-/-) c-jun(-/-) embryos died more rapidly before E8.5. The hepatoblast proliferation required no hematopoiesis, since liver development was not impaired in AML1(-/-) mice that lack hematopoietic functions. Stimulation of stress-activated protein kinase/c-jun N-terminal kinase by hepatocyte growth factor was attenuated in sek1(-/-) livers.

  • 査読無し, 英語, JOURNAL OF IMMUNOLOGY, AMER ASSOC IMMUNOLOGISTS, Overexpression of AML1 transcription factor drives thymocytes into the CD8 single-positive lineage, K Hayashi; N Abe; T Watanabe; M Obinata; M Ito; T Sato; S Habu; M Satake, To understand the gene regulation involved in the development of single-positive (SP) thymocytes, we generated transgenic mice in which the AML1 transcription factor is overexpressed. In these mice the number of CD8 SP thymocytes was greatly increased, and this continued to be true even when MHC class I was absent. This promotion to the CDS SP lineage was not, however, observed when both class I and class II were absent. Furthermore, even thymocytes carrying MHC class II-restricted TCR differentiated into the CD8 SP lineage when AML1 was overexpressed. The selected CD8 SP cells were, however, unable to mature, as judged by the expression level of heat-stable Ag. Thus, overexpression of AML1 is able to skew class II-restricted thymocytes into the CD8 SP lineage, but not to drive the maturation of resulting selected CDS SP cells., 2001年11月, 167, 9, 4957, 4965
