We sought to investigate ubiquitin and ubiquitin-like (UBL) systems (SUMOylation, NEDD8ylation, and Ufmylation) as putative mechanisms underlying protein expression abnormalities seen in schizophrenia. For this, we performed western blot analysis of total ubiquitination, free ubiquitin, K48- and K63-linked ubiquitination, and E1 activases, E2 conjugases, and E3 ligases involved in ubiquitination and UBL post-translational modifications in postmortem brain tissue samples from persons with schizophrenia (n ¼ 13) and comparison subjects (n ¼ 13). We studied the superior temporal gyrus (STG) of subjects from the Mount Sinai Medical Center brain collection that were matched for age, tissue pH, and sex. We found an overall reduction of protein ubiquitination, free ubiquitin, K48-linked ubiquitination, and increased K63 polyubiquitination in schizophrenia. Ubiquitin E1 activase UBA (ubiquitin activating enzyme)-6 and E3 ligase Nedd (neural precursor cell-expressed developmentally downregulated)-4 were decreased in this illness, as were E3 ligases involved in Ufmylation (UFL1) and SUMOylation (protein inhibitor of activated STAT 3, PIAS3). NEDD8ylation was also dysregulated in schizophrenia, with decreased levels of the E1 activase UBA3 and the E3 ligase Rnf7. This study of ubiquitin and UBL systems in schizophrenia found abnormalities of ubiquitination, Ufmylation, SUMOylation, and NEDD8ylation in the STG in this disorder. These results suggest a novel approach to the understanding of schizophrenia pathophysiology, where a disruption in homeostatic adaptation of the cell underlies discreet changes seen at the protein level in this illness.

In addition to targeting proteins for degrada- expression of multiple proteins in schizophrenia, including tion, the UPS is involved in vesicle trafficking, trafficking of but not limited to dysbindin (Talbot et al, 2004; Weickert proteins from the endoplasmic reticulum to the plasma et al, 2008), cdc42 (Rubio et al, 2012), kalirin (Rubio et al, membrane, recycling of receptors at the cell membrane 2012), Akt1 (Zheng et al, 2012), Reelin and GAD67 (Guidotti (Haas and Broadie, 2008), and sorting of Golgi and plasma et al, 2000), Rap2 (Funk et al, 2012), JNK1 (Funk et al, membrane proteins into the vacuolar degradation pathway 2012), JNK2, (Funk et al, 2012), and PSD-95 (Funk (Scheuring et al, 2012).

In this study, we sought to determine similar 3D structures, with a ubiquitin fold and a C-terminal whether post-translational mechanisms regulating protein glycine that allows them to bind to lysine residues of degradation could be driving the abnormal protein substrates in a UBL fashion.

NEDD8ylation dysfunction has been ferred to a target substrate by an E2 conjugase, also forming described in several degenerative disorders including a high-energy intermediate, E2-S-ubiquitin. The substrate is Parkinson’s disease (Choo et al, 2012) and Alzheimer’s bound to specific E3 ligases that catalyze the final process disease (Kee et al, 2012). Similarly, abnormalities of by covalently binding ubiquitin to an internal lysine SUMOylation have been implicated in neurodegenerative residue.

We found decreased protein ubiquitination, accompanied by decreased ubiquitin, and UBL activases and ligases, suggesting the possibility that disruption of these systems may underlie protein expression abnormalities found in postmortem studies in schizophrenia.

We utilized an informatics-based approach to develop a transcriptional signature of β-cell GA stress using existing RNA sequencing and microarray datasets generated using human islets from donors with diabetes and islets where type 1(T1D) and type 2 diabetes (T2D) had been modeled ex vivo. To narrow our results to GA-specific genes, we applied a filter set of 1,030 genes accepted as GA associated.

Even though our knowledge of the cellular and molecular mechanisms of liver fibrosis has deeply improved in the last years, therapeutic approaches for liver fibrosis remain limited. Profiling and characterization of the post-translational modifications (PTMs) of proteins, and more specifically NEDDylation and SUMOylation ubiquitin-like (Ubls) modifications, can provide a better understanding of the liver fibrosis pathology as well as novel and more effective therapeutic approaches.

The genetic contribution to human T2D and related metabolic disorders is evident, and mostly follows polygenic inheritance. The TALLYHO/ JngJ (TH) mice are a polygenic model for T2D characterized by obesity, hyperinsulinemia, impaired glucose uptake and tolerance, hyperlipidemia, and hyperglycemia.
