Introduction

Component of the COP9 signalosome complex (CSN), a complex involved in various cellular and developmental processes. The CSN complex is an essential regulator of the ubiquitin (Ubl) conjugation pathway by mediating the deneddylation of the cullin subunits of SCF-type E3 ligase complexes, leading to decrease the Ubl ligase activity of SCF-type complexes such as SCF, CSA or DDB2. The complex is also involved in phosphorylation of p53/TP53, c-jun/JUN, IkappaBalpha/NFKBIA, ITPK1 and IRF8, possibly via its association with CK2 and PKD kinases. CSN-dependent phosphorylation of TP53 and JUN promotes and protects degradation by the Ubl system, respectively. Has some glucocorticoid receptor-responsive activity. Stabilizes COP1 through reducing COP1 auto-ubiquitination and decelerating COP1 turnover rate, hence regulates the ubiquitination of COP1 targets.

The constitutive photomorphogenesis 9 (COP9) signalosome (CSN) typically composing of eight subunits (CSN1-8) mediates the process of deneddylation and deubiquitination. The fifth subunit of COP9 signalosome, CSN5, has special characteristics compared with the other seven subunits, and plays vital roles in the deneddylation activity and diverse cellular processes. However, the role of CSN5 in antiviral immunity is not clear. In this study, we identified 8 subunits (CSN1-8) of COP9 signalosome in shrimp Marsupenaeus japonicus. CSN1-6 were existed in all tested tissues, but CSN7-CSN8 were not detected in hepatopancreas. After WSSV challenged, the expression level of Csn1 to Csn4, and Csn6 to Csn8 were highly decreased, but the expression level of Csn5 was conspicuously increased in shrimp challenged by white spot syndrome virus (WSSV). The CSN5 was recombinantly expressed in Escherichia coli and its polyclonal antibody was prepared. The expression level of CSN5 was conspicuously increased at RNA and protein levels in the shrimp challenged by WSSV. After knockdown of Csn5 by RNA interference, the WSSV replication was obviously increased in shrimp. When injected the recombinant protein of CSN5 with the membrane penetrating peptide into shrimp, WSSV replication was inhibited and the survival rate of shrimp was significantly improved compared with control. We further analyzed the expression of antimicrobial peptides (AMPs) in Csn5-RNAi shrimp, and the results showed that the expression of several AMPs was declined significantly. These results indicate that CSN5 inhibits replication of WSSV via regulating expression of AMPs in shrimp, and the recombinant CSN5 might be used in shrimp aquaculture for the white spot syndrome disease control.

Identification of a novel matrix metalloproteinases-related prognostic signature in hepatocellular carcinoma

Article

Author: Yang, Liuxin ; Zhang, Yali ; Gao, Jiawei ; Yuan, Xingxing ; Mao, Xu ; Yuan, Wei

BACKGROUNDHepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) is the most common primary liver cancer worldwide. Cancer cells' local infiltration, proliferation, and spread are mainly influenced by the protein hydrolyzing function of different matrix metalloproteinases (MMPs). However, no study has determined the relationship between MMPs and prognostic prediction in HCC.METHODSExpression profiles of mRNA and MMPs-related genes were obtained from publicly available databases. Cox regression and LASSO Cox regression analysis were used to identify and predict MMPs-related prognostic signature and construct predictive models for overall survival (OS). A nomogram was used to validate the accuracy of the prediction model. Drug prediction was performed using the Genomics of Drug Sensitivity in Cancer (GDSC) dataset, and single-cell clustering analysis was performed to further understand the significance of the MMPs-related signature.RESULTSA MMPs-related prognostic signature (including RNPEPL1, ADAM15, ADAM18, ADAMTS5, CAD, YME1L1, AMZ2, PSMD14, and COPS6) was identified. Using the median value, HCC patients in the high-risk group showed worse OS than those in the low-risk group. Immune microenvironment analysis showed that patients in the high-risk group had higher levels of M0 and M2 macrophages. Drug sensitivity analysis revealed that the IC₅₀ values of sorafenib, cisplatin, and cytarabine were higher in the high-risk group. Finally, the single-cell cluster analysis results showed that YME1L1 and COPS6 were the major genes expressed in the monocyte cluster.CONCLUSIONSA novel MMPs-related signature can be used to predict the prognosis of HCC. The findings of this research could potentially impact the predictability of the prognosis and treatment of HCC.

AbstractCholesterol metabolism has important roles in maintaining membrane integrity and countering the development of diseases such as obesity and cancers. Cancer cells sustain cholesterol biogenesis for their proliferation and microenvironment reprograming even when sterols are abundant. However, efficacy of targeting cholesterol metabolism for cancer treatment is always compromised. Here it is shown that CSN6 is elevated in HCC and is a positive regulator of hydroxymethylglutaryl‐CoA synthase 1 (HMGCS1) of mevalonate (MVA) pathway to promote tumorigenesis. Mechanistically, CSN6 antagonizes speckle‐type POZ protein (SPOP) ubiquitin ligase to stabilize HMGCS1, which in turn activates YAP1 to promote tumor growth. In orthotopic liver cancer models, targeting CSN6 and HMGCS1 hinders tumor growth in both normal and high fat diet. Significantly, HMGCS1 depletion improves YAP inhibitor efficacy in patient derived xenograft models. The results identify a CSN6‐HMGCS1‐YAP1 axis mediating tumor outgrowth in HCC and propose a therapeutic strategy of targeting non‐alcoholic fatty liver diseases‐ associated HCC.
