The sarcomere is the contractile unit of striated muscle and is composed of actin and myosin filaments. There is increasing evidence to support that actin assembly mediated by Fhod3, a member of the formin family of proteins, is critical for sarcomere formation and maintenance in cardiac muscle. Fhod3, which is abundantly expressed in the heart, localizes to the center of sarcomeres and contributes to the regulation of the cardiac function, as evidenced by the fact that mutations in Fhod3 cause cardiomyopathy. However, the role of Fhod3 in skeletal muscle, another type of striated muscle, is unclear. We herein show that Fhod3 is expressed in the tongue at both mRNA and protein levels, although in smaller amounts than in the heart. To determine the physiological role of Fhod3 expressed in the tongue, we generated embryos lacking Fhod3 in the tongue. The tongue tissue of the Fhod3-depleted embryos did not show any significant structural defects, suggesting that Fhod3 is dispensable for normal development of the mouse tongue. Unexpectedly, the immunostaining analysis revealed the absence of specific sarcomeric signals for Fhod3 in the wild-type tongue when compared to the Fhod3-depleted tongue as a negative control, despite the use of antibodies that had previously been validated by immunostaining of heart tissues. Taken together, although Fhod3 protein is expressed at a significant level in the tongue, Fhod3 in the tongue does not appear to exhibit the same sarcomeric pattern as observed in the heart, suggesting a different role for Fhod3 in the tongue muscles.

Although cMyBP-C has been considered to regulate the cardiac function via cross-bridge arrangement at the C-zone of the myosin-containing A-band, the mechanism by which cMyBP-C functions remains unclear. We identified formin Fhod3, an actin organizer essential for the formation and maintenance of cardiac sarcomeres, as a cMyBP-C–binding protein. The cardiac-specific N-terminal Ig-like domain of cMyBP-C directly interacts with the cardiac-specific N-terminal region of Fhod3. The interaction seems to direct the localization of Fhod3 to the C-zone, since a noncardiac Fhod3 variant lacking the cMyBP-C–binding region failed to localize to the C-zone. Conversely, the cardiac variant of Fhod3 failed to localize to the C-zone in the cMyBP-C–null mice, which display a phenotype of hypertrophic cardiomyopathy. The cardiomyopathic phenotype of cMyBP-C–null mice was further exacerbated by Fhod3 overexpression with a defect of sarcomere integrity, whereas that was partially ameliorated by a reduction in the Fhod3 protein levels, suggesting that Fhod3 has a deleterious effect on cardiac function under cMyBP-C–null conditions where Fhod3 is aberrantly mislocalized. Together, these findings suggest the possibility that Fhod3 contributes to the pathogenesis of cMyBP-C–related cardiomyopathy and that Fhod3 is critically involved in cMyBP-C–mediated regulation of cardiac function via direct interaction.

Role of Src homology 3 domains in assembly and activation of the phagocyte NADPH oxidase 査読あり

The phagocyte NADPH oxidase, dormant in resting cells, is activated during phagocytosis to produce superoxide, a precursor of microbicidal oxidants. The activated oxidase is a complex of membrane-integrated cytochrome b 558 , composed of 91-kDa (gp91(phox)) and 22-kDa (p22(phox)) subunits, and two cytosolic factors (p47(phox) and p67(phox)), each containing two Src homology 3 (SH3) domains. Here we show that the region of the tandem SH3 domains of p47(phox) (p47-SH3) expressed as a glutathione S-transferase fusion protein inhibits the superoxide production in a cell-free system, indicating involvement of the domains in the activation. Furthermore, we find that arachidonic acid and sodium dodecyl sulfate, activators of the oxidase in vitro, cause exposure of p47-SH3, which has probably been masked by the C- terminal region of this protein in a resting state. The unmasking of p47-SH3 appears to play a crucial role in the assembly of the oxidase components, because p47-SH3 binds to both p22(phox) and p67(phox) but fails to interact with a mutant p22(phox) carrying a Pro-156 → Gln substitution in a proline- rich region, which has been found in a patient with chronic granulomatous disease. Based on the observations, we propose a signal-transducing mechanism whereby normally inaccessible SH3 domains become exposed upon activation to interact with their target proteins.

In small and large spinal dorsal root ganglion neurons, subtypes of voltage-gated sodium channels, such as NaV1.7, NaV1.8, and NaV1.9 are expressed with characteristically localized and may play different roles in pain transmission and intractable pain development. Selective stimulation of each specific subtype in vivo may elucidate its role of each subtype in pain. So far, this has been difficult with current technology. However, Optogenetics, a recently developed technique, has enabled selective activation or inhibition of specific neural circulation in vivo. Moreover, optogenetics had even been used to selectively excite NaV1.8-expressing dorsal root ganglion neurons to induce nocifensive behavior. In recent years, genetic modification technologies such as CRISPR/Cas9 have advanced, and various knock-in mice can be easily generated using such technology. We aimed to investigate the effects of selective optogenetic activation of NaV1.7-expressing afferents on mouse behavior. We used CRISPR/Cas9-mediated homologous recombination to generate bicistronic NaV1.7–iCre knock-in mice, which express iCre recombinase under the endogenous NaV1.7 gene promoter without disrupting NaV1.7. The Cre-driver mice were crossed with channelrhodopsin-2 (ChR2) Cre-reporter Ai32 mice to obtain NaV1.7iCre/+;Ai32/+, NaV1.7iCre/iCre;Ai32/+, NaV1.7iCre/+;Ai32/Ai32, and NaV1.7iCre/iCre;Ai32/Ai32 mice. Compared with wild–type mice behavior, no differences were observed in the behaviors associated with mechanical and thermal stimuli exhibited by mice of the aforementioned genotypes, indicating that the endogenous NaV1.7 gene was not affected by the targeted insertion of iCre. Blue light irradiation to the hind paw induced paw withdrawal by mice of all genotypes in a light power-dependent manner. The threshold and incidence of paw withdrawal and aversive behavior in a blue-lit room were dependent on ChR2 expression level; the strongest response was observed in NaV1.7iCre/iCre;Ai32/Ai32 mice. Thus, we developed a non-invasive pain model in which peripheral nociceptors were optically activated in free-moving transgenic NaV1.7–ChR2 mice.

Neuropathic pain has a significant social impact, with high morbidity and reduced productivity, the underlying mechanisms of neuropathic pain remain poorly understood, and effective therapeutic strategies remain elusive. The development of animal models of neuropathic pain that stimulate only the nociceptors and not the other sensory receptors or motor nerves is desirable for elucidating the complex pathogenesis of neuropathic pain. We have previously reported the generation of Na<inf>V</inf>1.7−channelrhodopsin-2 (ChR2), Na<inf>V</inf>1.8−ChR2, and Na<inf>V</inf>1.9−ChR2 mice. Optogenetics was employed in these light-responsive pain mice for generating nociceptive pain by specifically exciting the spinal dorsal root ganglion neurons, in which the respective Na<sup>+</sup> channels are expressed through exposure to blue light. This study aimed to compare the neuropathic pain produced by the prolonged exposure of light-responsive pain mice to blue light. A reversible neuropathic pain state was established persisting for a minimum of 24 hours when each light-responsive pain mouse was irradiated with light of an intensity that consistently elicited pain. Furthermore, the mice also showed pain sensitivity to light irradiation and mechanical stimulation. The expression of c-Fos, a marker for neuronal activity following noxious stimulation, was increased in the dorsal horn of the spinal cord on the light irradiated side. DS-1971a, a selective Na<inf>V</inf>1.7 inhibitor, was effective in attenuating neuropathic pain in all light-responsive pain mice. In conclusion, optogenetics helps elucidate the specific functions of sodium channel subtypes in pain signaling, thereby advancing our understanding and paving the way for the development of further effective treatments for pain disorders in the future.
