Abstract

Inflammation and an influx of macrophages are common elements in many diseases. Among pro-inflammatory cytokines, tumor necrosis factor α (TNFα) plays a central role by amplifying the cytokine network. Progranulin (PGRN) is a growth factor that binds to TNF receptors and interferes with TNFα-mediated signaling. Extracellular PGRN is processed into granulins by proteases released from immune cells. PGRN exerts anti-inflammatory effects, whereas granulins are pro-inflammatory. The factors coordinating these ambivalent functions remain unclear. In our study, we identify Y-box binding protein-1 (YB-1) as a candidate for this immune-modulating activity. Using a yeast-2-hybrid assay with YB-1 protein as bait, clones encoding for progranulin were selected using stringent criteria for strong interaction. We demonstrate that at physiological concentrations, YB-1 interferes with the binding of TNFα to its receptors in a dose-dependent manner using a flow cytometry-based binding assay. We show that YB-1 in combination with progranulin interferes with TNFα-mediated signaling, supporting the functionality with an NF-κB luciferase reporter assay. Together, we show that YB-1 displays immunomodulating functions by affecting the binding of TNFα to its receptors and influencing TNFα-mediated signaling via its interaction with progranulin.

Indeed, we and o he s ha e ecen ly shown ha YB-1 plays an essen ial ole in each o hese s ages o disease [9,46,49–53]. The cu en challenge lies in de ining bo h he cell in insic ac i i ies o YB-1 as well as i s ex insic ac i i ies. YB-1 sec e ion is known o be induced by a numbe o p o-in lamma o y s imuli, such as PDGF, TGF- β , as well as LPS, and ex acellula YB-1 possesses chemoa ac an ac i i y [ 6 – 8 , 54 ]. Indeed, i s abili y o bind o cell su ace ecep o s, such as ecep o No ch-3, ha e led us o p opose he exis ence o an au o- egula o y loop [55]. He ein, we ha e iden i ied a new ac i i y o ex acellula YB-1, namely modula ing TNFR ac i i y. TNF is conside ed a mas e egula o o in lamma ion, due o i s abili ies o induce he p oduc ion o a numbe o in lamma o y media o s as well as p o eases, which con ibu e o issue damage as well as cance ogenesis [56,57]. Simila o YB-1, TNF also possesses he abili y o au o- egula e i s own ac i i y. TNFR s imula ion ac i a es NF- κ B, amongs o he ac o s, which induces he exp ession o TNF mRNA. Recen ly, we iden i ied YB-1 as an essen ial componen o he TNFR signaling cascade leading o NF- κ B ac i a ion, as TNF s imula ion o YB-1-de icien cells ailed o ac i a e NF- κ B, as was p e iously shown o bo h IGF-1 and IL-1 β signaling [ 58 – 60 ]. A ailu e o ac i a e YB-1 and hus NF- κ B, nega i ely impac s on cell su i al in monocy es, mac ophages, and T cells [60–62]. Howe e , his is no he only le el whe e YB-1 may a ec TNF unc ionali y. The TNF mRNA possesses he same egula o y sequences (class II AU- ich elemen s) ha a e ound in he mRNA o GM-CSF, which is a known a ge o YB-1 [ 63 – 66 ]. Addi ionally, RNA binding p o eins, such as TIA-1 , TIAR, and HuR, which a e componen s o he s ess g anules, egula e TNF mRNA. Since YB-1 egula es s ess g anule o ma ion and is ound oge he wi h TIA-1, TIAR, and HuR wi hin hese s uc u es, he e is a s ong possibili y ha YB-1 con ibu es o he egula ion o TNF mRNA [67–69]. In addi ion o enhancing he exp ession o TNF mRNA, NF- κ B also induces TRAF2 exp ession [ 32 ]. TRAF2 is a common signaling componen o bo h TNFR1 and TNFR2 ha plays an impo an ole in egula ing canonical e sus non-canonical NF- κ B ac i a ion, as well as he balance be ween su i al and dea h signaling [ 70 ]. Thus, an induc ion o TRAF2 would ampli y he canonical NF- κ B pa hway (p50/p65). Since TRAF2 is essen ial o ac i a ing p65, YB-1 mus lay in be ween. The phospho yla ion o TRAF2 by p o ein kinase C egula es i s abili y o ec ui and ac i a e IKK α , which in u n phospho yla es I κ B α , a ge ing i o deg ada ion and he eby ac i a ing NF- κ B (p50/p65) [ 70 , 71 ]. In addi ion, i has ecen ly been epo ed ha TRAF2 media es he ec ui men o ubiqui in ligases o he TNFR1 complex I he eby p omo ing NF- κ B ac i a ion [ 72 ]. Mo eo e , YB-1 has been shown o di ec ly in e ac wi h p65 (RelA) and ac as a ansc ip ional co-ac i a o [ 73 ]. A numbe o kinases (RSK, AKT, ERK, PKC, CKII) ha e been iden i ied ha phospho yla e YB-1 wi hin i s cold shock domain, he eby inducing nuclea ansloca ion [ 74 , 75 ]. Thus, i is o eseeable ha he TNF ecep o oligome iza ion induced by ligand binding esul s in he ec ui men and oligome iza ion o adap o s, such as TRAF2, which in u n ec ui kinases and ubiqui in ligases ha ac i a e bo h NF- κ B and i s ans-ac i a o YB-1. In his s udy, we ocused on s imula ion o he TNFRs wi h soluble TNF, which ac i a es TNFR1 [ 76 ]. Recen ly, i was shown ha TNFR1 oligome iza ion is essen ial o induce signaling and ha his equi es bo h dime iza ion o ecep o chains ia he p eligand assembly domain and ligand binding [ 77 ]. The e o e, i is concei able ha YB-1/PGRN in e e es wi h oligome o ma ion and he eby p e en s signal ansduc ion. De e mining he s uc u e o hese in e ac ions is essen ial, as his may e eal new a ge s o de elopmen as an i-TNF he apy, as cu en he apies al hough success ul ha e hei limi a ions [78]. How YB-1/PGRN in luence memb ane-bound ligand ac i i y equi es u he s udy. Recen ly, PGRN was epo ed o ac i a e No ch signaling pa hways in neu ons [ 79 ]. YB-1 shows abundan exp ession in neu ons and is a ligand o ecep o No ch-3 [ 7 , 80 ]. Since TNF and TNFR in e ac ions a e p oposed o play a ole in neu onal g ow h, he dis up ions o hese in e ac ions may con ibu e o cogni i e impai men , as seen in pa ien s wi h p og anulin mu a ions [ 81 , 82 ]. Finally, p og anulin was ecen ly iden i ied as a ligand o eph in ecep o A2; howe e , no in e ac ion wi h In . J. Mol.
