Resumen

Las vesículas extracelulares (EV) se degradan a través de la autofagia, un proceso aprovechado para crear una plataforma de degradación de proteínas dirigida basada en EV (EVTPD). Esta novedosa plataforma degrada eficazmente las proteínas extracelulares y reduce la inflamación.

Área de la Ciencia:

Biotecnología
Biología Celular
Descubrimiento de Fármacos

Sus antecedentes:

La degradación de proteínas dirigida (TPD) ofrece una estrategia terapéutica para dianas no susceptibles a fármacos.
Las vesículas extracelulares (EV) muestran promesa como plataformas de TPD, pero su mecanismo de degradación no está claro.

Objetivo del estudio:

Elucidar la vía de degradación de las EV.
Desarrollar una plataforma modular de degradación de proteínas dirigida basada en EV (EVTPD).

Principales métodos:

Se investigó la degradación de EV utilizando vías lisosomales mediadas por autofagia.
Se identificó el reconocimiento de MAP1LC3B de los motivos LIR de SQSTM1 en la degradación de EV.
Se diseñaron EV con motivos LIR y dominios de unión a dianas para la construcción de EVTPD.

Principales resultados:

La degradación lisosomal mediada por autofagia es la principal vía para las EV.
La EVTPD desarrollada degradó selectivamente proteínas extracelulares sin receptores celulares.
La EVTPD de doble direccionamiento demostró potentes efectos antiinflamatorios en modelos preclínicos.

Conclusiones:

Se estableció una estrategia modular de TPD basada en EV que utiliza la autofagia.
Se demostró el potencial de EVTPD para la multi-dirección de proteínas extracelulares y el tratamiento de enfermedades inflamatorias.

The Proteasome

The Proteasome

Eukaryotic cells can degrade proteins through several pathways. One of the most important amongst these is the ubiquitin-proteasome pathway. It helps the cell eliminate the misfolded, damaged, or unwarranted cytoplasmic proteins in a highly specific manner.
In this pathway, the target proteins are first tagged with small proteins called ubiquitin. A series of enzymes carry out the ubiquitination of the target proteins - E1 (ubiquitin-activating enzyme), E2 (ubiquitin-conjugating enzyme), and E3...

Regulated Protein Degradation

Regulated Protein Degradation

It is vital to regulate the activity of enzymatic as well as non-enzymatic proteins inside the cell. This can be achieved either through creating a balance between their rate of synthesis and degradation or regulating the intrinsic activity of the protein. Both these regulation mechanisms play an essential role in the normal functioning of cells.
Protein degradation plays two important roles in the cells. It helps to protect cells from misfolded or damaged proteins before they lead to a...

Export of Misfolded Proteins out of the ER

Export of Misfolded Proteins out of the ER

After folding, the ER assesses the quality of secretory and membrane proteins. The correctly folded proteins are cleared by the calnexin cycle for transport to their final destination, while misfolded proteins are held back in the ER lumen. The ER chaperones attempt to unfold and refold the misfolded proteins but sometimes fail to achieve the correct native conformation. Such terminally misfolded proteins are then exported to the cytosol by ER-associated degradation or ERAD pathway for...
