dc.description.abstract含NOD結構域、亮氨酸重複序列(LRR)與pyrin結構域(PYD)的蛋白質3(NLRP3)發炎體是先天免疫系統中的關鍵成分,負責調控與細胞焦亡(pyroptosis)相關的發炎性細胞激素釋放。NLRP3可感受來自病原相關分子模式(PAMPs)與損傷相關分子模式(DAMPs)等多種刺激後,組裝形成具mega-Dalton量級的大型複合體,進而招募並活化前體pro-caspase-1,促進介白素的成熟與分泌。儘管目前已廣泛研究NLRP3活化所造成的生理與免疫反應,但其初始活化所需的分子機制與關鍵調控因子,仍未被充分釐清。
為鑑別驅動NLRP3活化的關鍵因子,我們應用了高解析度native質譜(native mass spectrometry, nMS)技術,此技術能在溶液中直接監測多重蛋白質間與蛋白-配體間的交互作用。藉由比對活化前後NLRP3交互作用體(interactome)之變化,我們進一步探索其活化的潛在調控機制。首先,我們建立螢光標記NLRP3細胞影像平台,並證實異源表現的NLRP3在受到多種刺激後,仍具備形成puncta的能力,為其活化的表徵之一。其次,我們成功取得重組NLRP3的native質譜圖譜,並觀察到其在靜止狀態下會形成高階寡聚結構。第三,當NLRP3蛋白來自於經預先刺激的細胞時,僅觀察到單體與二聚體形式,顯示NLRP3活化伴隨高階寡聚體的解聚。綜合以上結果,我們推論NLRP3可能透過高階寡聚體的形成抑制其自體活化,而複合體的解離則為其活化的關鍵步驟。此外,我們也觀察到NLRP3的磷酸化狀態可能調控其聚集與活化能力。未來研究將著重於探討NLRP3的磷酸化與其寡聚體組成變化之間的關係,期望進一步揭示其活化的分子機制。

dc.description.abstractThe NOD-, leucine-rich repeat (LRR)-, and pyrin domain (PYD)-containing protein 3 (NLRP3) inflammasome is a critical component of the innate immune system, mediating pyroptosis-associated cytokine release. In response to a diverse array of stimuli, including pathogen-associated molecular patterns (PAMPs) and damage-associated molecular patterns (DAMPs), NLRP3 assembles into a mega-Dalton complex that recruits and activates pro-caspase-1, subsequently driving the maturation and secretion of interleukins. While the biological and physiological outcomes of NLRP3 activation have been extensively studied, the primary molecular mechanisms or key modulators directly triggering its activation remain elusively unclear.
To identify the key factors initiating NLRP3 activation, we employed high-resolution native mass spectrometry (nMS), a technique capable of directly monitoring multiplex protein-protein and protein-ligand interactions in solution. The idea is to probe the changes in NLRP3 interactome associated with its activation for further investigation. In summary, we first demonstrated that exogenously expressed NLRP3 retains its ability to form puncta—a hallmark of NLRP3 activation—in response to various stimuli. Secondly, we successfully acquired the native mass spectrum of recombinant NLRP3 and revealed its high order oligomerization at the rest state. Thirdly, only monomeric and dimeric NLRP3 was observed when proteins were purified from the cells pre-treated with the activation stimuli. Collectively, our results speculate that NLRP3 suppresses its auto-activation via formation of oligomeric complexes and disassembly of these complexes is essential for activation. Additionally, we observed that NLRP3 phosphorylation may regulate its assembly and activation. My future studies will focus on elucidating the relation between the stoichiometric modulation of NLRP3 and its phosphorylation, with the ultimate goal of advancing our understanding of the molecular mechanisms governing NLRP3 activation.
