HB-EGF Shedding Transcriptional repressor PLZF EGF family metalloprotease gene regulation shedding repressor

项目摘要

Heparin-binding EGF-like growth factor(HB-EGF) is initially synthesized as a type I transmembrane protein (proHB-EGF). The proHB-EGF is shed by specific metalloproteases, releasing the N-terminal fragment into the extracellular space as a soluble growth factor (HB-EGF) and the C-terminal fragment (HB-EGF-C) into the intracellular space, where it prevents transcriptional repression by the promyelocytic leukemia zinc finger protein (PLZF). The goal of the present study was to characterize regulation of proHB-EGF shedding and study its temporal variations in HB-EGF-C localization throughout the cell cycle. Quantitative combination analyses of cell surface proHB-EGF and HB-EGF in conditioned medium showed that proHB-EGF shedding occurred during the G1 cell cycle phase. Laser scanning cytometry revealed that HB-EGF-C was internalized into the cytoplasm during the late G1 phase and accumulated in the nucleus beginning in the S phase. Subsequent nuclear export of PLZF occurred during the late S phase. Further, HB-EGF-C was localized around the centrosome following breakdown of the nuclear envelope and was localized to the interzonal space with chromosome segregation in the late M phase. Temporal variations in HB-EGF localization throughout the cell cycle were also characterized by time-lapse imaging of cells expressing YFP-tagged proHB-EGF, and these results were consistent with those obtained in cytometry studies. Furthermore, we identified BCL-6 and BAZF as transcriptional repressors targeted by HB-EGF-C. These results indicate that proHB-EGF shedding and subsequent HB-EGF-C signaling are related with progression of the cell cycle and may provide a clue to understand the unique biological significance of non-receptor-mediated signaling of proHB-EGF in cell growth.

肝素结合EGF样生长因子（HB-EGF）最初合成为I型跨膜蛋白（ProHB-EGF）。 ProHB-EGF由特定的金属蛋白酶脱离，将N末端片段释放到细胞外空间中，作为可溶性生长因子（HB-EGF）和C末端片段（HB-EGF-C），将其释放到细胞内空间中，防止临时细胞白血病锌指蛋白（PLZF）的转录抑制。本研究的目的是表征ProHB-EGF脱落的调节，并研究其在整个细胞周期中HB-EGF-C定位中其时间变化。条件培养基中细胞表面ProHB-EGF和HB-EGF的定量组合分析表明，ProHB-EGF脱落发生在G1细胞周期阶段。激光扫描细胞仪表明，HB-EGF-C在G1晚期中被内化为细胞质，并积聚在S相开始的细胞核中。随后的PLZF核出口发生在S后期。此外，HB-EGF-C在核包膜崩溃后位于中心体周围定位，并在M阶段后期置于区域间空间，并在M阶段分离。在整个细胞周期中，HB-EGF定位的时间变化也以表达YFP标记的ProHB-EGF的细胞的延时成像，这些结果与细胞仪研究中获得的结果一致。此外，我们将BCL-6和BAZF确定为HB-EGF-C靶向的转录阻遏物。这些结果表明，ProHB-EGF脱落和随后的HB-EGF-C信号与细胞周期的进展有关，并且可能提供了一个线索，以了解ProHB-EGF在细胞生长中的非受体介导的信号的独特生物学意义。
