  • Gallein, G protein βγ subunits inhibitor, suppresses the TGF-α-induced migration of hepatocellular carcinoma cells via inhibition of the c-Jun N-terminal kinase

    < GPCR News < GPCRs in Oncology and Immunology Gallein, G protein βγ subunits inhibitor, suppresses the TGF-α-induced migration of hepatocellular carcinoma cells via inhibition of the c-Jun N-terminal kinase Published date November 13, 2024 Abstract "G protein-coupled receptor (GPCR) signaling regulates a wide range of pathophysiological cell functions via G protein α and βγ subunits. Small molecules targeting the subunits of Gα and Gβγ have been developed as cancer therapeutics. We have previously reported that transforming growth factor-α (TGF-α) induces the migration of human hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) HuH7 cells through the activation of AKT, p38 mitogen-activated protein kinase (MAPK), Rho-kinase and c-Jun N-terminal kinase (JNK). This study aims to determine whether Gβγ subunits regulate the TGF-α-induced migration of HCC HuH7 cells using gallein, a Gβγ subunits inhibitor. The Janus family of tyrosine kinase (JAK)/signal transducer and activator of transcription 3 (STAT3) signaling pathway was also involved in the regulation of the migration. Gallein significantly reduced the TGF-α-induced cell migration. In contrast, fluorescein, a gallein-related compound that has no effect on Gβγ subunits, failed to affect the cell migration. Gallein suppressed the TGF-α-stimulated phosphorylation of JNK without affecting the phosphorylation of epidermal growth factor receptor, AKT, p38 MAPK, target protein of Rho-kinase and STAT3. Conversely, fluorescein did not attenuate the phosphorylation of JNK. These results strongly suggest that Gβγ subunits act as positive regulators in TGF-α-induced migration of HCC cells via the JNK signalling pathway."

She received her Ph.D. from Oklahoma State University and completed her postdoctoral training with Dr. Robert J. Lefkowitz (Nobel Laureate, 2012) at Duke University. Dr. Shenoy’s postdoctoral research discovered that ubiquitination of mammalian G protein-coupled receptors is a tag for lysosomal degradation, whereas ubiquitination of the adaptor protein, β-arrestin, is a tag for receptor internalization and formation of signaling endosomes. Her laboratory has continued to work on identifying the molecular mechanisms that ascribe ubiquitin code on GPCRs and β-arrestins. Current efforts aim to understand the regulation of GPCR and beta-arrestin signaling in the heart and vascular endothelium by the deubiquitinating enzymes USP20 and USP33.

    Dr. GPCR Podcast << Back to podcast list Dr. Katarina Nemec About Dr. Katarina Nemec " I am a pharmacist with an interest in systems pharmacology and precision medicine. Since my undergraduate studies, I have been engaged in researching molecular mechanisms that govern human (patho-)physiology and their interplay with drugs. I aim to discover new therapeutic approaches, and druggable molecules or refine canonical drug targets to create drugs with fewer adverse effects. I studied Pharmacy at the University in Ljubljana, Slovenia, and at the University of Bonn, Germany, working initially on the role of prostaglandin receptor EP4 in chronic lymphocytic leukemia. During my PhD studies in Martin Lohse lab at the Max Delbrueck Center in Berlin, I consolidated my knowledge of GPCRs pharmacology while performing various cell-based experiments to understand the binding, activation, and signaling of therapeutically relevant GPCRs. In addition, I generated various optical biosensors based on fluorescence or bioluminescence resonance energy transfer technologies (FRET, BRET) that were used for functional screens with state-of-the-art microscopy and high throughput screening to explain novel ways of GPCR modulation. I am continuing with the development of advanced screening approaches in the Madan Babu lab to progress in the understanding of spatiotemporal regulation of biased GPCR activation and signaling. I want to combine experimental approaches with data-driven discovery and adopt data science methodology to tackle relevant scientific questions on the systems pharmacology level.

    Dr. GPCR Podcast << Back to podcast list Exploring Career Paths in GPCR Research with Dr. Jacek Mokrosiński About Dr. Jacek Mokrosiński "Jacek is a Senior Scientist at Novo Nordisk specializing in molecular pharmacology and cell-based screening technologies. He works in a multidisciplinary Chemical Biology team based at the recently established US R&D hub in Lexington, MA. Originally from Łódź, Poland, Jacek completed his Master's degree in Biology, specializing in Biochemistry at the University of Łódź. He then moved to Denmark, where he trained at the University of Copenhagen under supervision of Professor Thue W. Schwartz, and worked closely with Dr Birgitte Holst studying structural and mechanistic properties of ghrelin receptor and GPCRs involved in regulation of metabolism. After completing his Ph.D., he pursued research in genetics of metabolic regulation at the Institute of Metabolic Science - Metabolic Research Laboratories at the University of Cambridge in the team led by Professor I. Sadaf Farooqi. His research aimed at understanding molecular mechanism through which rare genetic variation may lead to or protecting from excessive body weight gain. As part of Farooqi's team, he characterized a series of novel human genetic variants identified in several GPCRs associated with obesity and other metabolic diseases, including GPR10, Melanocortin 4, Serotonin 2C and TRH receptors. Since 2021, Jacek has been working at Novo Nordisk at its research sites in the UK (Oxford) and the US (Indianapolis, Indiana and most recently Lexington, Massachusetts). He is passionate about cell-based in vitro technologies to study mechanistic properties of GPCRs and understanding the dynamics of receptor signalling.

  • Atypical Structure and Function of Typical Chemokine Receptors

    Retreat 2023 About Program Registration Logo Contest Committee Sponsors GPCR Retreat Program < Back to schedule Atypical Structure and Function of Typical Chemokine Receptors Date & Time Saturday, November 4th / 11:00 AM Abstract Coming Soon About Amy Ramsey "One of the principal efforts of our laboratory is to understand the physiological consequences of NMDA receptor deficiency using genetic mouse models. The NMDA receptor is a subtype of glutamate neurotransmitter receptor that regulates the formation and maintenance of synaptic connections between neurons. It plays an important role in the way that neurons wire together and change the strength of synaptic connections with experience. Our laboratory is interested in the role of NMDA receptors not only on neurons, but also on other cells of the brain such as astrocytes, oligodendrocytes, and endothelial cells. NMDA receptors are implicated in a number of brain disorders including schizophrenia, autism, and epilepsy. Our laboratory has a long-standing interest in the way that NMDA receptors contribute to the symptoms of schizophrenia. Recently, we have focused our efforts on GRIN disorder. This is a rare neurodevelopmental disorder caused by de novo mutations in the GRIN genes that encode NMDA receptors. Although symptoms of GRIN disorder appear very early in childhood, it can take years to reach the right diagnosis through genetic tests. Children with GRIN disorder experience developmental delays, intellectual impairment, visual impairments, and difficulties with daily tasks like talking and walking, feeding and toileting. Many children experience seizures that can be life-threatening. Our laboratory is working to help patients by developing genetically-modified mice that have disease-causing variants in their Grin1 gene. These mice can then be used to test dietary regimens, drugs, and adenoviral gene therapies for their ability to improve specific symptoms. The Ramsey lab uses a combination of biochemical and behavioural approaches to understand the many roles of NMDA receptors and to find treatments for debilitating brain disorders."

  • Leukotriene B4 receptor 2 governs macrophage migration during tissue inflammation

    < GPCR News < GPCRs in Oncology and Immunology Leukotriene B4 receptor 2 governs macrophage migration during tissue inflammation Published date December 12, 2023 Abstract "Chronic inflammation is the underlying cause of many diseases, including type 1 diabetes, obesity, and non-alcoholic fatty liver disease. Macrophages are continuously recruited to tissues during chronic inflammation where they exacerbate or resolve the pro-inflammatory environment. Although leukotriene B4 receptor 2 (BLT2) has been characterized as a low affinity receptor to several key eicosanoids and chemoattractants, its precise roles in the setting of inflammation and macrophage function remain incompletely understood. Here we used zebrafish and mouse models to probe the role of BLT2 in macrophage function during inflammation. We detected BLT2 expression in bone marrow derived and peritoneal macrophages of mouse models. Transcriptomic analysis of Ltb4r2-/- and WT macrophages suggested a role for BLT2 in macrophage migration, and studies in vitro confirmed that whereas BLT2 does not mediate macrophage polarization, it is required for chemotactic function, possibly mediated by downstream genes Ccl5 and Lgals3. Using a zebrafish model of tailfin injury, we demonstrated that antisense morpholino-mediated knockdown of blt2a or chemical inhibition of BLT2 signaling impairs macrophage migration. We further replicated these findings in zebrafish models of islet injury and liver inflammation. Moreover, we established the applicability of our zebrafish findings to mammals by showing that macrophages of Ltb4r2-/- mice have defective migration during lipopolysaccharide stimulation in vivo. Collectively, our results demonstrate that BLT2 mediates macrophage migration during inflammation, which implicates it as a potential therapeutic target for inflammatory pathologies."

  • Context-dependent ciliary regulation of hedgehog pathway repression in tissue morphogenesis

    < GPCR News < GPCRs in Oncology and Immunology Context-dependent ciliary regulation of hedgehog pathway repression in tissue morphogenesis Published date November 9, 2023 Abstract "A fundamental problem in tissue morphogenesis is identifying how subcellular signaling regulates mesoscale organization of tissues. The primary cilium is a paradigmatic organelle for compartmentalized subcellular signaling. How signaling emanating from cilia orchestrates tissue organization-especially, the role of cilia-generated effectors in mediating diverse morpho-phenotypic outcomes-is not well understood. In the hedgehog pathway, bifunctional GLI transcription factors generate both GLI-activators (GLI-A) and GLI-repressors (GLI-R). The formation of GLI-A/GLI-R requires cilia. However, how these counterregulatory effectors coordinate cilia-regulated morphogenetic pathways is unclear. Here we determined GLI-A/GLI-R requirements in phenotypes arising from lack of hedgehog pathway repression (derepression) during mouse neural tube and skeletal development. We studied hedgehog pathway repression by the GPCR GPR161, and the ankyrin repeat protein ANKMY2 that direct cAMP/protein kinase-A signaling by cilia in GLI-R generation. We performed genetic epistasis between Gpr161 or Ankmy2 mutants, and Gli2/Gli3 knockouts, Gli3R knock-in and knockout of Smoothened, the hedgehog pathway transducer. We also tested the role of cilia-generated signaling using a Gpr161 ciliary localization knock-in mutant that is cAMP signaling competent. We found that the cilia-dependent derepression phenotypes arose in three modes: lack of GLI-R only, excess GLI-A formation only, or dual regulation of either lack of GLI-R or excess GLI-A formation. These modes were mostly independent of Smoothened. The cAMP signaling-competent non-ciliary Gpr161 knock-in recapitulated Gpr161 loss-of-function tissue phenotypes solely from lack of GLI-R only. Our results show complex tissue-specific GLI-effector requirements in morphogenesis and point to tissue-specific GLI-R thresholds generated by cilia in hedgehog pathway repression. Broadly, our study sets up a conceptual framework for rationalization of different modes of signaling generated by the primary cilium in mediating morphogenesis in diverse tissues."
