Characterization of Junin arenavirus cell entry.

Junín virus (JUNV) entry is conducted by receptor-mediated endocytosis. To explore the cellular entry mechanism of JUNV, inhibitory effects of drugs affecting the main endocytic pathways on JUNV entry into Vero cells were analysed. Compounds that impair clathrin-mediated endocytosis were shown to reduce virus internalization without affecting virion binding. In contrast, drugs that alter lipid-raft microdomains, impairing caveola-mediated endocytosis, were not able to block virus entry. To show direct evidence of JUNV entry, transmission electron microscopy was performed; it showed JUNV partic…

Cellular entry of lymphocytic choriomeningitis virus.

In contrast to most enveloped viruses that enter the host cell via clathrin-dependent endocytosis, the Old World arenavirus lymphocytic choriomeningitis virus (LCMV) enters cells via noncoated vesicles that deliver the virus to endosomes, where pH-dependent membrane fusion occurs. Here, we investigated the initial steps of LCMV infection. We found that the attachment of LCMV to its cellular receptor alpha-dystroglycan occurs rapidly and is not dependent on membrane cholesterol. However, subsequent virus internalization is sensitive to cholesterol depletion, indicating the involvement of a chol…

Human Adenovirus Entry and Early Events during Infection of Primary Murine Neurons: Immunofluorescence Studies In Vitro.

Human adenovirus (HAdV) is a common pathogen, which can lead to various clinical symptoms and-in some cases-central nervous system (CNS) dysfunctions, such as encephalitis and meningitis. Although the initial events of virus entry have already been identified in various cell types, the mechanism of neuronal uptake of adenoviruses is relatively little understood. The aim of this study was to investigate early events during adenoviral infection, in particular to determine the connection between cellular coxsackievirus and adenovirus receptor (CAR), clathrin, caveolin, and early endosomal protein…

Endocytosis of CF in marginal cells of stria vascularis regulated by ROCK and MLCK signaling cascade, but not G-proteins.

Objective The endocytosis of cationized feritin (CF) via a clathrin-mediated pathway is regulated by a signaling network. Marginal cells showed the active endocytosis of CF via a clathrin-mediated pathway. The internalization of receptors through this clathrin-mediated pathway is an important regulatory event in signal transduction. Numerous kinases are involved in endocytosis, and each endocytic route is subjected to high-order regulation by cellular signaling mechanisms. In this study, we investigated whether ROCK and MLCK signaling cascades and G-proteins regulate the endocytosis of CF in m…

Dynamics of Chikungunya Virus Cell Entry Unraveled by Single-Virus Tracking in Living Cells.

UNLABELLED: Chikungunya virus (CHIKV) is a rapidly emerging mosquito-borne human pathogen causing major outbreaks in Africa, Asia, and the Americas. The cell entry pathway hijacked by CHIKV to infect a cell has been studied previously using inhibitory compounds. There has been some debate on the mechanism by which CHIKV enters the cell: several studies suggest that CHIKV enters via clathrin-mediated endocytosis, while others show that it enters independently of clathrin. Here we applied live-cell microscopy and monitored the cell entry behavior of single CHIKV particles in living cells transfe…

Blockade of dengue virus infection and viral cytotoxicity in neuronal cells in vitro and in vivo by targeting endocytic pathways.

Dengue virus (DENV) infection in neuronal cells was speculated to trigger neuropathy. Herein, we determined the blockade of DENV infection by targeting endocytic pathways in vitro and in vivo. In DENV-infected mouse brains, we previously showed that viral proteins are expressed in neuronal cells around the hippocampus with accompanying neurotoxicity. DENV caused infection, including entry, double-stranded (ds)RNA replication, protein expression, and virus release, followed by cytotoxicity in the mouse neuronal Neuro-2a cell line. Pharmacologically blocking clathrin-mediated endocytosis of the …

Multi-omics analysis provides new insights into the molecular mechanisms underlying colostral immunoglobulin G absorption in the gut of neonatal goat kids.

Early colostrum feeding facilitates the passive transfer of immunoglobulin G (IgG), which contributes to the defensive establishment of neon … ) with IgG absorption. Genes in M12 were involved in the endocytosis pathway, especially related to clathrin-mediated endocytosis and macropinocytosis. The differentially expressed genes (DEGs) enriched in the above-mentioned pathways regulated the clathrin synthesis (CLTC), the formation of clathrin-coated vesicles (ARPC1A), and the sorting and recycling …

Listeria monocytogenes Exploits Host Caveolin for Cell-to-Cell Spreading.

Listeria monocytogenes moves from one cell to another using actin-rich membrane protrusions that propel the bacterium toward neighboring cells. Despite cholesterol being required for this transfer process, the precise host internalization mechanism remains elusive. Here, we show that caveolin endocytosis is key to this event as bacterial cell-to-cell transfer is severely impaired when cells are depleted of caveolin-1. Only a subset of additional caveolar components (cavin-2 and EHD2) are present at sites of bacterial transfer, and although clathrin and the clathrin-associated proteins Eps15 an…

SLC26A4-AP-2 mu2 interaction regulates SLC26A4 plasma membrane abundance in the endolymphatic sac.

Decreased presence or activity of human SLC26A4 at the plasma membrane is a common cause of hearing loss. SLC26A4 (Pendrin) is necessary for normal reabsorption of endolymph, the fluid bathing the inner ear. We identified the μ2 subunit of adaptor protein 2 (AP-2) complex required for clathrin-mediated endocytosis as a protein-partner of SLC26A4 involved in regulating its plasma membrane abundance. We showed that, in the endolymphatic sac, where fluid reabsorption occurs, SLC26A4 is localized along the apical microvilli of mitochondria-rich cells, in contact with the endolymph, and associated …

Mechanism of aldolase control of sorting nexin 9 function in endocytosis.

Sorting nexin 9 (SNX9) functions in a complex with the GTPase dynamin-2 at clathrin-coated pits, where it provokes fission of vesicles to complete endocytosis. Here the SNX9.dynamin-2 complex binds to clathrin and adapter protein complex 2 (AP-2) that line these pits, and this occurs through interactions of the low complexity domain (LC4) of SNX9 with AP-2. Intriguingly, localization of the SNX9.dynamin-2 complex to clathrin-coated pits is blocked by interactions with the abundant glycolytic enzyme aldolase, which also binds to the LC4 domain of SNX9. The crystal structure of the LC4 motif of …

Proteomes of plasmodium knowlesi early and late ring-stage parasites and infected host erythrocytes.

The emerging malaria parasite Plasmodium knowlesi threatens the goal of worldwide malaria elimination due to its zoonotic spread in Southeast Asia. After brief ex-vivo culture we used 2D LC/MS/MS to examine the early and late ring stages of infected Macaca mulatta red blood cells harboring P. knowlesi. The M. mulatta clathrin heavy chain and T-cell and macrophage inhibitor ERMAP were overexpressed in the early ring stage; glutaredoxin 3 was overexpressed in the late ring stage; GO term differential enrichments included response to oxidative stress and the cortical cytoskeleton in the early rin…

Autoantibodies in primary Sjögren's syndrome patients induce internalization of muscarinic type 3 receptors.

OBJECTIVES: Primary Sjögren's syndrome (pSS) is a systemic autoimmune disease characterized by lymphocyte infiltration into the salivary and lachrymal glands, leading to dry mouth and eyes. The presence of functional autoantibodies against muscarinic type 3 receptor (M3R) has been reported in pSS patients. However, the pathological role of anti-M3R autoantibodies in pSS salivary dysfunction remains controversial. METHODS: Purified IgGs were obtained from normal (control) and primary SS patients' sera (pSS IgG). Internalization of M3R and clathrin was analyzed by biochemical assay and immunofl…

Mild functional differences of dynamin 2 mutations associated to centronuclear myopathy and Charcot-Marie Tooth peripheral neuropathy.

The large GTPase dynamin 2 is a key player in membrane and cytoskeletal dynamics mutated in centronuclear myopathy (CNM) and Charcot-Marie T … on and did not disrupt interphase microtubules dynamics. Most dynamin 2 mutants partially decreased clathrin-mediated endocytosis when ectopically expressed in cultured cells; however, experiments in patient fibroblasts suggested that endocytosis is overall not defective. Furthermore, CNM mutants were seen in association with enlarged clathrin stained stru …

Huntingtin-associated protein-1 (HAP1) regulates endocytosis and interacts with multiple trafficking-related proteins.

Huntingtin-associated protein 1 (HAP1) was initially identified as a binding partner of huntingtin, mutations in which underlie Huntington's … oteins that were identified by mass spectrometry have trafficking-related functions and include the clathrin light chain B and Sec23A, an ER to Golgi trafficking vesicle coat component. Using co-immunoprecipitation and GST-binding assays the association between HAP1 and clathrin light chain B has been validated in vitro. This study also finds that HAP1 co- …

SNX9 couples actin assembly to phosphoinositide signals and is required for membrane remodeling during endocytosis.

Multiple modes of endocytosis require actin-dependent remodeling of the plasma membrane; however, neither the factors linking these processes nor their mechanisms of action are understood. The sorting nexin, SNX9, localizes to clathrin-coated pits where it interacts with dynamin and functions in clathrin-mediated endocytosis. Here, we demonstrate that SNX9 also localizes to actin-rich structures implicated in fluid-phase uptake, including tubular membranes containing GPI-anchored proteins and dorsal membrane ruffles. Moreover, we show that SNX9 is critical for dorsal ruffle formation and for c…

The mechanistic of DCBLD2 in inhibiting TGF-β induced endothelial-mesenchymal transition in calcific aortic valve disease.

OBJECTIVE: Despite significant elevations in the morbidity and mortality of calcific aortic valve disease (CAVD), no effective pharmacologic … hway were measured using Western blot analysis. The impact of DCBLD2 on TGF-β receptor (TGF-βR) and clathrin interactions was elucidated by conducting immunoprecipitation. To block clathrin activity, we selected Pitstop 2 as an inhibitor. RESULTS: The expression levels of DCBLD2 were reduced in aortic valve tissue CAVD patients, and DCBLD2 knockout mice e …

Enterovirus (EV) 71 infection is known to cause hand-foot-and-mouth disease (HFMD) and in severe cases, induces neurological disorders culmi … the expression of viral capsid proteins in RD and 3T3-SCARB2 but not Vero cells. SiRNAs specific to clathrin or dynamin or chemical inhibitor of clathrin-mediated endocytosis were all capable of interfering with the entry of EV71 into 3T3-SCARB2 cells. On the other hand, caveolin specific siRNA or inhibitors of caveolae-mediated endocytosis had no effect, …

Golgi vesiculation induced by cholesterol occurs by a dynamin- and cPLA2-dependent mechanism.

It was recently demonstrated that an increase in the cellular cholesterol level leads to vesiculation of the Golgi apparatus. This vesiculat … ected with this construct had the same effect. However, the vesiculation seems to be independent of clathrin, as cholesterol-induced vesiculation still occurred following knock down of clathrin heavy chain in HeLa cells using RNA interference as well as in BHK cells where expression of antisense to clathrin heavy chain had been induced. Importantly, the cP …
