Inhibition of Immunoproteasome Attenuates NLRP3 Inflammasome Response by Regulating E3 Ubiquitin Ligase TRIM31.
Cells 2024 April 14
Excessive secretion of pro-inflammatory cytokines leads to the disruption of intestinal barrier in inflammatory bowel disease (IBD). The inflammatory cytokine tumor necrosis factor alpha (TNFα) induces the assembly of the NLRP3 inflammasome, resulting in the augmented secretion of inflammatory cytokines implicated in the pathogenesis of inflammatory bowel disease (IBD). TNFα has also been known to induce the formation of immunoproteasome (IP), which incorporates immunosubunits LMP2, LMP7, and MECL-1. Inhibition of IP activity using the IP subunit LMP2-specific inhibitor YU102, a peptide epoxyketone, decreased the protein levels of NLRP3 and increased the K48-linked polyubiquitination levels of NLRP3 in TNFα-stimulated intestinal epithelial cells. We observed that inhibition of IP activity caused an increase in the protein level of the ubiquitin E3 ligase, tripartite motif-containing protein 31 (TRIM31). TRIM31 facilitated K48-linked polyubiquitination and proteasomal degradation of NLRP3 with an enhanced interaction between NLRP3 and TRIM31 in intestinal epithelial cells. In addition, IP inhibition using YU102 ameliorated the symptoms of colitis in the model mice inflicted with dextran sodium sulfate (DSS). Administration of YU102 in the DSS-treated colitis model mice caused suppression of the NLRP3 protein levels and accompanied inflammatory cytokine release in the intestinal epithelium. Taken together, we demonstrated that inhibiting IP under inflammatory conditions induces E3 ligase TRIM31-mediated NLRP3 degradation, leading to attenuation of the NLRP3 inflammatory response that triggers disruption of intestinal barrier.
