Role of Ran-regulated nuclear-cytoplasmic trafficking of pVHL in the regulation of microtubular stability-mediated HIF-1α in hypoxic cardiomyocytes

چکیده
Our previous study suggested that microtubule network alteration affects the process of glycolysis in cardiomyocytes (CMs) via the regulation of hypoxia-inducible factor (HIF)-1α during the early stages of hypoxia. However, little is known regarding the underlying mechanisms of microtubule network alteration-induced changes of HIF-1α. The von Hippel-Lindau tumor suppressor protein (pVHL) has been shown to mediate the ubiquitination of HIF-1α in the nuclear compartment prior to HIF-1α exportation to the cytoplasm, and pVHL dynamic nuclear-cytoplasmic trafficking is indicated to be involved in the process of HIF-1α degradation. In this study, by administering different microtubule-stabilizing and -depolymerizing interventions, we demonstrated that microtubule stabilization promoted pVHL nuclear export and drove the translocation of pVHL to the cytoplasm, while microtubule disruption prevented pVHL nuclear export in hypoxic CMs. Moreover, the ratio between nuclear and cytoplasmic pVHL was associated with HIF-1α regulation. Importantly, microtubule network alteration also affected the subcellular localization of Ran, which was involved in the regulation of pVHL nuclear-cytoplasmic trafficking. The above results suggest that the subcellular translocation of pVHL plays an important role in microtubular structure alteration-induced HIF-1α regulation. Interestingly, Ran is involved in the process of pVHL nuclear-cytoplasmic trafficking following microtubule network alteration in hypoxic CMs.

Microtubular Stability Affects pVHL-Mediated Regulation of HIF-1alpha via the p38/MAPK Pathway in Hypoxic Cardiomyocytes
BACKGROUND Our previous research found that structural changes of the microtubule network influence glycolysis in cardiomyocytes by regulating the hypoxia-inducible factor (HIF)-1α during the early stages of hypoxia. However, little is known about the underlying regulatory mechanism of the changes of HIF-1α caused by microtubule network alternation. The von Hippel-Lindau tumor suppressor protei...

Hypoxia plays a major role in the induction of angiogenesis during tumor development. One mechanism by which tumor cells respond to a reduced oxygen level is via the activation of hypoxia-inducible factor-1 (HIF-1). HIF-1 is an oxygen-dependent transcriptional activator that plays crucial roles in the angiogenesis of tumors and mammalian development. HIF-1 consists of a constitutively expressed...
متن کاملHEXIM1 down-regulates hypoxia-inducible factor-1α protein stability.
We have previously reported on the inhibition of HIF-1α (hypoxia-inducible factor α)-regulated pathways by HEXIM1 [HMBA (hexamethylene-bis-acetamide)-inducible protein 1]. Disruption of HEXIM1 activity in a knock-in mouse model expressing a mutant HEXIM1 protein resulted in increased susceptibility to the development of mammary tumours, partly by up-regulation of VEGF (vascular endothelial grow...
متن کاملThe key role of microtubules in hypoxia preconditioning-induced nuclear translocation of HIF-1α in rat cardiomyocytes
BACKGROUND Hypoxia-inducible factor (HIF)-1 is involved in the regulation of hypoxic preconditioning in cardiomyocytes. Under hypoxic conditions, HIF-1α accumulates and is translocated to the nucleus, where it forms an active complex with HIF-1β and activates transcription of approximately 60 kinds of hypoxia-adaptive genes. Microtubules are hollow tubular structures in the cell that maintain c...
