The Neurofibromatosis type 2 tumor suppressor gene (NF2) is mutated in inherited and sporadically occurring central nervous system tumors. The NF2 encoded protein, merlin, shares close sequence similarity in its amino-terminal domain to members of the band 4.1 family of membrane-cytoskeletal linkers. Similarities between merlin and this family suggest a role for merlin in regulating cytoskeletal function. Thus, NF2 may be a novel type of tumor suppressor gene that mediates its tumor suppressor function through interactions with the actin cytoskeleton. However, the molecular and cellular functions of this tumor suppressor gene were largely unknown when the work described here began. Mutational analysis of Nf2 in flies has lead to the identification of a dominant-negative allele, which harbors mutations in the amino-terminal domain of the protein. The work presented here demonstrates that expression of a murine analog of this amino-terminal mutant of Nf2 (termed, Nf2BBA) leads to complete transformation of NIH3T3 fibroblasts in culture. Cells that express Nf2BBA display disruptions of the actin cytoskeleton, lack of contact inhibition of growth, and anchorage-independent growth. In addition, Nf2-deficient mouse embryo fibroblasts (MEFs) exhibited similar contact inhibition and cell-matrix adhesion defects to Nf2BBA expressing cells. Nf2BBA cells continue to cycle under normal growth inhibitory conditions, such as serum withdrawal, and exhibit high levels of the cell cycle regulator, cyclin D1. Elevated levels of cyclin D1 are necessary for cellular transformation following Nf2BBA expression. Nevertheless, the exact mechanism by which Nf2BBA results in cellular transformation remains elusive. Recently published studies have revealed that merlin may regulate members of the RhoGTPase
(cont.) family, as absence of Nf2 expression in fibroblasts leads to many phenotypes reminiscent of overactive Rac, such as increased membrane ruffling and increased activity of the c-jun N- terminal kinase (JNK). Our work has extended to the analysis of the role of merlin in the regulation of the Rac pathway. Using rat schwannoma cells and N2-deficient MEFs, we have demonstrated that merlin exerts its inhibitory effects downstream of Rac, through a direct interaction with the p21 activated kinase, Pak. We demonstrate that in the absence of merlin, Pak is active and hyperphosphorylated, and, conversely, when merlin is overexpressed, Pak activity is diminished. The N-terminal half of merlin binds to the functionally conserved Rac/Cdc42 interaction binding (CRIB) domain of Pak. Several models for merlin regulation of Pak activity will be discussed. Finally, the identification of Pak as a kinase that is misregulated in the absence of NF2 may lead to possible avenues for therapeutic intervention.

Testo completoIn the central nervous system, myelin sheath formation by oligodendrocytes ensures efficient and adapted propagation of action potentials, as well as metabolic support to neurons. Myelination is an intrinsic program of mature oligodendrocytes that requires precise modulation of their actin cytoskeleton. Indeed, the extension of the oligodendrocyte process to reach an axon is supported by actin polymerisation; whereas the extension and wrapping of oligodendrocyte membrane to form the concentric multi-layered membrane, that is myelin sheath, is supported by a drastic deconstruction of the actin cytoskeleton. The molecular mechanisms triggering this shift to actin depolymerisation remain unclear. Determining the mechanisms involved in this crucial process provides a better understanding of myelination and could pave the way for new therapeutic targets to stimulate myelin formation. This is of great importance for demyelinating diseases such as multiple sclerosis, and for neurodevelopmental diseases characterised by a mismatch of the amount of myelin formed to the needs of circuits, such as in autism spectrum disorders.During the first part of my thesis, we tested the involvement of P-21 activated kinase 1 (PAK1) in the regulation of myelination, hypothesising its potential control of actin dynamics. Indeed, PAK1 is known to regulate the actin cytoskeleton via its kinase activity: active PAK1 maintains actin cytoskeleton polymerised, while inhibited PAK1 stimulates its deconstruction. We showed that during oligodendrocyte maturation, PAK1 is increasingly expressed, yet its kinase activity is stronly inhibited, which is consistent with the potential role of PAK1 in regulating myelination. Moreover, we showed that maintaining PAK1 in an abnormal constitutively active form restrains actin deconstruction and myelin membrane expansion, whereas enhancing PAK1 inhibition increases myelin expansion via enhanced actin depolymerisation. Together, these results suggest that PAK1 endogenous inhibition is necessary for actin depolymerisation and subsequent myelin formation. In vivo, depleting Pak1 in oligodendrocytes specifically increases myelin thickness. Taken together, our findings suggest that to form the correct amount of myelin, PAK1 kinase activity must be inactivated, whether the protein is absent or inhibited. Moreover, this implies the presence of an endogenous PAK1 inhibitor in oligodendrocytes. We identified and validated NF2/Merlin as an endogenous inhibitor of PAK1 in oligodendrocytes, enabling actin depolymerisation and myelin membrane expansion. Overall, this initial study has led to the emergence of a mechanistic model in which the antagonistic actions of NF2/Merlin and PAK1 stimulates actin depolymerisation in oligodendrocytes and hence the formation of myelin membranes.In the second part of my thesis, currently in progress, we have shown that NF2/Merlin controls developmental myelination in vivo via PAK1/actin axis-dependent and -independent mechanisms, in particular involving microtubule modulation.Overall, the findings of my thesis provide a more comprehensive understanding of the underlying mechanisms of myelination, which could also be studied in the context of remyelination

Testo completoAlterations in phosphorylation-dependent signalling pathways, accumulation of aggregated proteins in the brain and neuronal apoptosis are common to neurodegeneration and implicate overlapping molecular mechanism. To gain insight into involved pathways, a modified yeast-two hybrid (Y2H) system was applied to screen 71 proteins associated with neurological disorders in a proteome-wide manner. For 21 of these proteins interactions were identified including 5 phosphorylation-dependent ones. In total, the network connected 79 proteins through 90 protein-protein interactions (PPIs). A fraction of these Y2H PPIs was tested in secondary interaction assays with a validation rate of 66 %. The described network-based approach successfully identified proteins associated with more than one disorder and cellular functions connected to specific disorders. In particular, the network revealed Ser/Thr kinase-dependent PPIs between the Parkinson protein 7 (PARK7, DJ1) and the E3 ligase components ASB3 and RNF31 (HOIP). The function of these proteins further substantiates the established connection between Parkinson’s disease (PD) and ubiquitination-mediated proteasome (dis)functions. Neurofibromin 2 (NF2, merlin) isoforms and PARK7 were identified as PI3K regulatory subunit p55-gamma (PIK3R3) interactors. These PPIs required Tyr kinase coexpression in the modified Y2H system and functional PIK3R3 pTyr-recognition modules (SH2 domains) in co-IP and Venus PCA experiments. This finding implicates the PI3K/AKT survival pathway in PD-associated neuronal apoptosis and Neurofibromatosis type 2-associated tumour formation. Investigation of PIK3R3, AOF2 (KDM1A, LSD1) and EMILIN1 PPIs on NF2 isoform level revealed preferential isoform 7 binding and cytoplasmic or membrane localisation of these PPIs for isoform 7 or 1, respectively. The generated modification-dependent and isoform-specific PPI network triggered many hypotheses on the molecular mechanisms implicated in neurological disorders.

Testo completoSchwannomas are benign tumors arising from Schwann cell hyper-proliferation under NF2 bi-allelic inactivation. They appear in the context of a rare hereditary disease called Neurofibromatosis type 2 (NF2) or in sporadic cases. To this day, surgery and radiotherapy remain the only options to treat these patients, mainly due to the lack of therapeutical targets identified. The NF2 loss associated cellular phenotype is the loss of cell contact inhibition. Two main functions of Merlin, the NF2 product, have emerged in the last decade. The first was shown by our group and consists in the accumulation of tyrosine kinase receptors (RTK) at the plasma membrane in schwannomas. The second involves Merlin in the regulation of the Hippo signaling pathway. This pathway is activated by cell contact and inactivates a couple of transcription co-factors, Yap and Taz, then participating in cell contact inhibition of proliferation. However, the mechanisms by which Merlin inactivates Yap and Taz remain unknown. In our studies, we aimed to determine both the molecular signature of human schwannomas taking advantage of a large proteomic study, and the relative importance of Yap in the tumor suppressor function of Merlin. We could show both a specific activation of five RTKs : PDGFRβ, Her 3, Her2, Axl and Tie2 and a specific nuclear accumulation of Yap in human schwannoma. Among all the protein studied, Yap, PDGFRβ and P-Her3 are the only ones to correlate with the proliferation of human schwannoma cells. Furthermore, the activated RTK (excepted Tie2) are transcriptional targets of Yap. Hence, we found Yap as a pivotal regulator of schwannoma growth and proposed its inhibition as a new and promising therapeutical target to reduce human schwannoma growth. In addition, we show that Merlin specifically inhibits Yap nuclear translocation into the nucleus of Schwann cells by a direct interaction which is independent from the regulation by cell density and by the Hippo pathway. Moreover, Merlin expression seems not to be essential for Hippo activation in Schwann cells which brings a new and unexpected role of Merlin in Yap and Hippo regulation. In the end, we studied the role of AmotL1, a strong Hippo partner of Merlin in the migration and progression of breast cancer. We could show an antagonist function of Merlin and AmotL1 in the promotion of these mechanisms highlighting a new progression suppressor function of Merlin in cancer which are not linked to NF2 mutations
