4 Methods: Human alveolar epithelial A549 cells were transfected with vectors expressing wild-type ABCA3 or one of the three ABCA3 mutant forms, R43L, R280C and L101P, C-terminally tagged with YFP or hemagglutinin-tag. Login to comment
8 Results: We demonstrate that two ABCA3 mutations, which affect ABCA3 protein trafficking/folding and lead to partial (R280C) or complete (L101P) retention of ABCA3 in the ER compartment, can elevate ER stress and susceptibility to it and induce apoptotic markers in the cultured lung epithelial A549 cells.

35 Fibrosis is one of the hallmarks documented in ABCA3-associated ILD [12,16,17] and knowing that ABCA3 mutations can cause ER retention of the mutated transporter [6,20], we investigated the influence of three ABCA3 mutations, R43L, R280C and L101P, found in children with surfactant deficiency and chronic ILD [10,14,19], on ER stress and apoptosis induction in lung epithelial A549 cells.

82 Results General characterization of R43L, R280C and L101P ABCA3 mutations A) Localization and trafficking Three clinically relevant ABCA3 mutations identified in patients with neonatal surfactant deficiency (R43L and L101P) and chronic ILD (R280C) were chosen for the study. Login to comment
83 While cell biology of R43L and R280C mutations has not been studied yet, L101P mutation was previously described as a trafficking/folding defect resulting in the ER accumulation of L101P protein [6,20] and was deliberately chosen for this study as a cause for the ABCA3 ER retention.

113 Liposomes containing NBD-labeled major surfactant phospholipid phosphatidyl-choline (C12-NBD-PC) and NBD-labeled minor surfactant phospholipid phosphatidylethanol-amine (C12-NBD-PE) were incubated with A549 cells expressing WT, R43L, R280C and L101P HA-tagged proteins. Login to comment
116 Interestingly, uptake of fluorescent liposomes into A549 cells was prominent in all cells, including those expressing L101P mutants (Figure 3) and therefore Figure 2 Processing of the WT and mutant R43L, R280C and L101P ABCA3. Login to comment
117 (A) Immunodetection with anti-GFP antibody showed two ABCA3 protein bands (180 kDa and 220 kDa) in whole cell lysates of A549 cells expressing WT and R43L and R280C mutations, and only one protein band in the cells expressing L101P mutation. Login to comment
118 (B) Deglycosylation assay with PNGaseF and EndoH on the membrane fractions from A549 cells transfected with pEYFP-N1/ ABCA3 plasmids and subsequent ABCA3-YFP immunodetection with anti-GFP antibody showed presence of high-mannose and complex oligosaccharides in WT, R43L and R280C proteins, as well as only high-mannose and no complex oligosaccharides in the L101P mutant resulting from the L101P ER retention.

123 Both C12-NBD-PC and C12-NBD-PE fluorescence (green) frequently colocalized with the ring-like ABCA3 WT signal as well as within the ABCA3-WT vesicles and almost never with the R43L and R280C vesicles. Login to comment
127 WT ABCA3 (green) induced biogenesis of LAMP3+ vesicles (red) increasing their number and size in A549 cells, while R43L, R280C and L101P proteins showed no such effect (the same was observed in A549 pEYFP-N1/ABCA3 transfected cells - not shown). Login to comment
133 Similar colocalization of NBD fluorescence with ABCA3-HA vesicles was extremely rarely observed in cells expressing R43L and R280C mutations (Figure 3A, B). Login to comment
134 This probably indicates the ability of WT-ABCA3-HA vesicles to take up and accumulate both fluorescent lipids, while R280C-ABCA3-HA and R43L-ABCA3-HA vesicles did not show such ability. Login to comment
137 Expression of R43L, R280C and L101P mutations had a negative effect on vesicle formation and induced a lower number of smaller compact LAMP3+ vesicles, with the most drastic effect in L101P mutant (Figure 3D). Login to comment
139 Decreased uptake of NBD fluorescence in lamellar bodies and impact on lamellar body biogenesis together suggest functional impairment of the R43L and R280C proteins. Login to comment
140 L101P and R280C mutation upregulate ER stress marker BiP BiP/Grp78 is an essential ER chaperone of the Hsp70 family, which assists the translocation of a nascent protein chain into the ER and its subsequent folding. Login to comment
142 Immunoblotting of whole cell lysates from A549 cells expressing ABCA3-WT and three mutants revealed significant upregulation of BiP chaperone in the case of L101P mutation and R280C mutation in comparison to WT, caused by complete (L101P) or partial ER retention (R280C) of these two mutated ABCA3 transporters (Figure 4A, B). Login to comment
145 L101P and R280C mutations increase susceptibility of A549 cells to ER stress Upon ER accumulation of misfolded proteins BiP dissociates from the luminal domain of IRE1, allows IRE1 dimerization and synthesis of active XBP1 protein, a UPR transcription factor which regulates expression of ER stress proteins including BiP.

148 (A) A549 cells with ER retained L101P mutant or partially ER retained R280C protein showed upregulation of the immunodetected ER chaperone BiP in comparison to WT and A549 cells. Login to comment
156 Probably because of the robustness of the method, finer differences between WT and R43L and R280C were not observable, and the effect was measurable only in the case of the L101P mutant with the strongest protein defect (Figure 5A, D). Login to comment
161 (A) XBP1 splicing in untransfected A549 cells with and without tunicamycin (TM) treatment (10 μg/ml, 14 h) and in A549 cells with R43L, R280C and L101P mutations. Login to comment
168 Lower effect of L101P mutation on XBP1 splicing in A549 cells and no effect in A549 with WT and R43L and R280C mutations were observed. Login to comment
169 (B, E) TM treatment (10 μg/ml, 14 h) strongly induced XBP1 splicing (disappearance of unspliced bands u1 and u2) in all A549 cells expressing ABCA3 mutations, with the most significant increase in A549 expressing R280C and L101P mutations (increase in spliced band s). Login to comment
172 However, after exposure to tunicamycin XBP1 splicing was considerably more pronounced in R280C and L101P mutations if compared to A549 cells with WT and R43L mutations (Figure 5B, E). Login to comment
173 Obviously, although XBP1 splicing was measurable only for the strongest L101P defect under non-stimulated condition, cells with L101P and R280C mutations were significantly more prone to further elevation of ER stress upon exposure to an external stressor. Login to comment
174 L101P and to a lesser extent R280C mutation induce apoptosis of A549 cells Since prolonged ER stress can activate apoptosis, we analyzed if ABCA3 mutations can induce early and late apoptotic markers in A549 cells. Login to comment
178 Flow cytometry assay of Cy5-coupled Annexin V surface binding showed an increase in the number of annexin V+ /PI- cells in transfected YFP+ cells in the case of R280C and L101P mutations when compared to WT and R43L indicating an early apoptotic state of those cells (Figure 6A). Login to comment
181 Intracellular GSH level, measured by flow cytometry of monochlorobimane binding to GSH and generation of a fluorescent adduct, was decreased in the YFP+ cells with L101P protein compared to YFP+ WT, R43L and also compared to R280C (Figure 6B). Login to comment
188 Elevated early and late apoptotic markers were detectable in cells expressing L101P mutation, and one early marker (Annexin V) in cells expressing R280C mutation. Login to comment
190 In summary, while R43L mutation did not raise apoptotic signaling above the A549 or WT level, R280C mutation increased one early apoptotic marker and ER-localized L101P mutations significantly elevated early and late apoptotic markers, indicating injury of the cells with L101P protein.

191 Prolonged ER stress leads to apoptosis through caspase 4 activation in cells expressing R280C and L101P mutations To examine if initiation of apoptosis in cells with ABCA3 mutations is indeed a consequence of the ER stress signaling, we assessed activation of caspase 4, which is activated by apoptotic stimuli that cause ER stress, but not other apoptotic stimuli [28,37]. Login to comment
195 Immunoblotting of whole cell lysates from the cells expressing WT or R43L, R280C or L101P mutations showed insignificant changes in pro-caspase 4 level between WT and mutations, but the level of pro-caspase 4 was somewhat higher in transfected cells then in A549 (Figure 7B). Login to comment
196 In contrast, cleaved caspase 4 in R280C and L101P mutants increased significantly in comparison to WT. Login to comment
198 This shows that caspase 4 is involved in apoptotic signaling in cells with L101P and R280C mutations and that activation of the apoptotic pathway can be a consequence of the ER stress caused by complete or partial ER retention of the ABCA3 protein. Login to comment
201 In this study we investigated the influence of three ABCA3 mutations, R43L, R280C and L101P, on intracellular stress and induction of apoptosis in cultured lung epithelial A549 cells. Login to comment
202 All three mutations were found in children with ABCA3-associated lung disease being either fatal neonatal respiratory distress syndrome (L101P and R43L [10,14]) or chronic ILD (R280C; own unpublished data, [19]). Login to comment
203 While cell biology of R43L and R280C mutations was studied here for the first time, L101P mutation was used as a known example of the trafficking/folding defect leading to the ER retention of ABCA3 with no information on ER stress [6,20]. Login to comment

206 (A) Immunoblotting on whole cell lysates from A549 cells transfected with pEYFP-N1/ABCA3 and densitometric analyses of (B) pro-caspase 4 and (C) cleaved caspase 4 demonstrated increased caspase 4 cleavage in cells expressing L101P and R280C mutations, as well as after TNFa treatment of A549 (25 ng/ml, 16 h) in comparison to WT and untreated A549.

94 Only 2 of these mutations were found in our study: p.R280C, which disrupts ABCA3 folding and trafficking, and p.E292V, which disrupts ATP hydrolysis and decreases phospholipid transport across the lamellar body membrane.29,30 Our combined genomic, computational, and disease-based variant discovery strategy permits prioritization of mutations for further functionalinvestigation,whichiscritical for understanding disease pathogenesis.
