HIV-1 and Amyloid Beta Remodel Proteome of Brain Endothelial Extracellular Vesicles International Journal of Molecular Sciences Article HIV-1 and Amyloid Beta Remodel Proteome of Brain Endothelial Extracellular Vesicles Ibolya E. András, Brice B. Sewell and Michal Toborek * Department of Biochemistry and Molecular Biology, University of Miami School of Medicine, Miami, FL 33136-1019, USA; [email protected] (I.E.A.); [email protected] (B.B.S.) * Correspondence: [email protected] Received: 11 March 2020; Accepted: 7 April 2020; Published: 15 April 2020 Abstract: Amyloid beta (Aβ) depositions are more abundant in HIV-infected brains. The blood–brain barrier, with its backbone created by endothelial cells, is assumed to be a core player in Aβ homeostasis and may contribute to Aβ accumulation in the brain. Exposure to HIV increases shedding of extracellular vesicles (EVs) from human brain endothelial cells and alters EV-Aβ levels. EVs carrying various cargo molecules, including a complex set of proteins, can profoundly affect the biology of surrounding neurovascular unit cells. In the current study, we sought to examine how exposure to HIV, alone or together with Aβ, affects the surface and total proteomic landscape of brain endothelial EVs. By using this unbiased approach, we gained an unprecedented, high-resolution insight into these changes. Our data suggest that HIV and Aβ profoundly remodel the proteome of brain endothelial EVs, altering the pathway networks and functional interactions among proteins. These events may contribute to the EV-mediated amyloid pathology in the HIV-infected brain and may be relevant to HIV-1-associated neurocognitive disorders. Keywords: HIV-1; amyloid beta; extracellular vesicles; blood–brain barrier 1. Introduction HIV-infected brains tend to have enhanced amyloid beta (Aβ) deposition [1–6], mostly in the perivascular space [3,7–9]. Indeed, the blood–brain barrier (BBB) is thought to be a key player in the brain’s Aβ homeostasis [10]. It is now widely accepted that extracellular vesicles (EVs) may also be important in Aβ pathology [11–17]. Our earlier work has shown that HIV can increase the release of brain endothelial EVs and alter EV-Aβ levels. Moreover, brain endothelial cell-derived EVs can transfer Aβ to other cells of the neurovascular unit [18]. EVs carry specific cargo molecules, including a complex set of proteins, which can be transferred to the neighboring cells and affect their biology. Some of these proteins are on the EV surface. The surface proteins may allow for selective EV uptake by the recipient cells, like in the case of receptor-mediated endocytosis. Total proteomics can give detailed information on the EV protein cargo overall. Surface proteomics could indicate the “address” of a targeted delivery, while total proteomics would represent the delivered “package.” In this work, we investigated how exposure to HIV, alone and together with Aβ, impacts the surface and total proteomic landscape of EVs from human brain microvascular endothelial cells (HBMEC-EVs). By using this unbiased strategy, we obtained a complex, high-resolution insight into these changes. Int. J. Mol. Sci. 2020, 21, 2741; doi:10.3390/ijms21082741 www.mdpi.com/journal/ijms Int. J. Mol.

UNIVERSITY OF KUOPIO, the Faculty of Natural and Environmental Sciences, Curriculum of Biochemistry USKI Juuso Oskari Thesis for Master of Science degree Supervisors Prof. Carsten Carlberg, Ph.D. Merja Heinäniemi, Ph.D. June 2008 Keywords: nuclear receptors; peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor; PPAR response element; apolipoprotein; lipid metabolism; high density lipoprotein; low density lipoprotein. Lipids are any fat-soluble, naturally-occurring molecules and one of their main biological functions is energy storage. Lipoproteins carry hydrophobic lipids in the water and salt-based blood environment for processing and energy supply in liver and other organs. In this study, the genomic area around the apolipoprotein genes was scanned in silico for PPAR response elements (PPREs) using the in vitro data-based computer program. Several new putative REs were found in surroundings of multiple lipoprotein genes. The responsiveness of those apolipoprotein genes to the PPAR ligands GW501516, rosiglitazone and GW7647 in the HepG2, HEK293 and THP-1 cell lines were tested with real-time PCR. The APOA1, APOA2, APOB, APOD, APOE, APOF, APOL1, APOL3, APOL5 and APOL6 genes were found to be regulated by PPARs in direct or secondary manners. Those results provide new insights in the understanding of lipid metabolism and so many lifestyle diseases like atherosclerosis, type 2 diabetes, heart disease and stroke.

Myosin generates force on cytoskeletal actin filaments to control cell shape, most dramatically during cytokinesis, and has a conserved role in defining cell polarity. Myosin contracts the actin cytoskeleton, ensuring prompt turnover of cellular adhesion sites, retracting the cell body during migration and development, and contracting muscle among diverse other functions. How myosins work, and why force generation is essential for their function, is in many cases an open question.

The authors contributed equally to the manuscript. y Received: 11 June 2020; Accepted: 7 July 2020; Published: 9 July 2020 Abstract: MicroRNAs (miRNAs) are key modulators of post-transcriptional gene regulation in a plethora of processes, including actin–myosin cytoskeleton dynamics. Recent evidence points to the widespread effects of miRNAs on actin–myosin cytoskeleton dynamics, either directly on the expression of actin and myosin genes or indirectly on the diverse signaling cascades modulating cytoskeletal arrangement. Furthermore, studies from various human models indicate that miRNAs contribute to the development of various human disorders. The potentially huge impact of miRNA-based mechanisms on cytoskeletal elements is just starting to be recognized. In this review, we summarize recent knowledge about the importance of microRNA modulation of the actin–myosin cytoskeleton affecting physiological processes, including cardiovascular function, hematopoiesis, podocyte physiology, and osteogenesis. Keywords: miRNA; actin; myosin; actin–myosin complex; Rho kinase; cancer; smooth muscle; hematopoiesis; stress fiber; gene expression; cardiovascular system; striated muscle; muscle cell differentiation; therapy 1. Introduction Actin–myosin interactions are the primary source of force generation in mammalian cells. Actin forms a cytoskeletal network and the myosin motor proteins pull actin filaments to produce contractile force. All eukaryotic cells contain an actin–myosin network inferring contractile properties to these cells.

Myotubes are multi-nucleated fibers containing a functional unit composed of cytoskeletal proteins called the sarcomere. The specific arrangement of these proteins in the sarcomere works to contract and relax muscles. During embryonic and post-embryonic development, fluctuations in expression of growth factors throughout the program account for the dramatic structural changes from cell to mature muscle fiber. In vivo, these growth factors are strictly spatiotemporally regulated according to a ‘myogenic program.’ In order to assess the dynamics of protein expression throughout this program, we conducted a time course study using the mouse myoblast cell line C2C12, in which cells were allowed to differentiate and insoluble protein fractions were collected at seven time points.

Fredrickson, July 11, 1986 ABSTRACT The genes coding for three proteins of the APOC3 deficiency and premature coronary artery disease plasma lipid transport system-apolipoproteins Al (APOAI), (13-15), hypertriglyceridemia (16), and hypoalphalipopro- C3 (APOC3), and A4 (APOA4)-are closely linked and teinemia (17). tandemly organized on the long arm ofhuman chromosome 11. In this report the nucleotide sequence of the human In this study the human APOA4 gene has been isolated and APOA4 gene has been determined. The results suggest that characterized. In contrast to APOAl and APOC3 genes, which the APOAI, APOC3, and APOA4 genes were derived from a contain three introns, the APOA4 gene contains only two. An common evolutionary ancestor and indicate that during intron interrupting the 5' noncoding region of the APOA1 and evolution the APOA4 gene lost one of its ancestral introns. APOC3 mRNAs is absent from the corresponding position of Screening of the APOA4 gene region for polymorphisms the APOA4 mRNA. However, similar to APOAI and APOC3 showed that two different Xba I restriction endonuclease genes, the introns of the APOA4 gene separate nucleotide sites are polymorphic in Mediterranean and Northern Euro- sequences coding for the signal peptide and the amphipathic pean populations.
