來(lái)自廣州生物醫(yī)藥與健康研究院的研究人員揭示了由VHL突變所導(dǎo)致腎囊腫的分子機(jī)理,發(fā)現(xiàn)了VHL基因在腎囊腫中的又一新作用。這一研究成果公布在腎臟學(xué)界學(xué)術(shù)刊物《美國(guó)腎臟病學(xué)會(huì)雜志》JASN上。

這項(xiàng)研究由廣州生物醫(yī)藥與健康研究院Miguel A. Esteban研究組和裴端卿研究組合作完成,其中Miguel A. Esteban博士早年畢業(yè)于西班牙納瓦拉大學(xué),2007年加入廣州生物醫(yī)藥與健康研究院,從事腫瘤干細(xì)胞研究,這是其在VHL基因研究方面的又一成果。
腎囊腫是一類在腎臟內(nèi)出現(xiàn)囊性腫塊的疾病,2/3以上見于60歲以上的人,當(dāng)前還沒有治療腎囊腫的方法。關(guān)于腎囊腫的發(fā)病機(jī)理,目前較為認(rèn)同的觀點(diǎn)是初級(jí)纖毛假說,即由于某些基因(例如VHL基因)的突變導(dǎo)致初級(jí)纖毛功能受損,從而使細(xì)胞無(wú)法感知外界信號(hào),使細(xì)胞進(jìn)入增殖期,導(dǎo)致腎囊腫形成。VHL基因是一個(gè)抑癌基因,位于染色體3P25區(qū),VHL基因突變可造成VEGF 表達(dá)升高而發(fā)生富含血管的血管母細(xì)胞瘤。
在這篇文章中,研究人員發(fā)現(xiàn)由于VHL基因的突變,可導(dǎo)致低氧誘導(dǎo)因子HIF的高表達(dá),從而引起一系列酶的活性的改變,介導(dǎo)初級(jí)纖毛的解聚,引起初級(jí)纖毛萎縮。研究人員通過沉默該信號(hào)通路的各個(gè)基因的表達(dá),明顯改善初級(jí)纖毛的形成率。這一成果發(fā)現(xiàn)VHL基因在腎囊腫中的又一新作用,揭示了VHL病中腎囊腫的分子機(jī)理,為針對(duì)該信號(hào)通路的小分子化合用于VHL疾病的臨床治療提供了理論基礎(chǔ)。

原文摘要:
VHL Inactivation Induces HEF1 and Aurora Kinase A
The ciliary hypothesis for cystic renal diseases postulates that most of these conditions result from abnormalities in the primary cilium, a microtubule-based structure that acts as a sensor for extracellular cues. Inactivation of the von Hippel-Lindau (VHL) tumor suppressor gene predisposes to renal cysts and clear cell renal cell carcinoma. VHL plays a critical role in the formation of primary cilia in kidney epithelium, but the underlying mechanisms are poorly understood. Here, we demonstrate that VHL inactivation induces HEF1/Cas-L/NEDD9 and Aurora kinase A via the stabilization of hypoxia-inducible factors 1 and 2. Aurora kinase A is a mitotic kinase commonly upregulated in cancer that causes regression of the primary cilium by promoting histone deacetylase-dependent tubulin depolymerization of the ciliary axoneme. HEF1/Cas-L/NEDD9 is a component of focal adhesions that has a prominent role in inducing metastasis and that colocalizes with Aurora kinase A at the centrosome, thereby enhancing the harmful effect of Aurora kinase A on the cilium. Suppression of this pathway improved the formation of primary cilia and reduced cell motility in VHL-defective renal cancer cells. Our results highlight the gatekeeper role of VHL in the kidney epithelium.
