SUMMARYDuring cell division, cells must actively pass on organelles. Previously, we discovered the endoplasmic reticulum (ER) stress surveillance (ERSU) pathway that ensures the inheritance of functional ER. Activation of the ERSU causes the septin ring to mislocalize, which blocks ER inheritance and cytokinesis. Here, we found that the septin ring mislocalizes to previously utilized cell division sites called cytokinetic remnants (CRMs). The transfer of the septin ring to CRMs requires Nba1, a negative polarity component that normally prevents septin ring formation at CRMs. Furthermore, septin ring movement to CRMs relies on the ERSU component Slt2, which is recruited by binding Bem1. During ER stress, Bem1 also binds the GTP exchange factor Cdc24, without activating Cdc42, a GTPase that normally establishes polarized growth. Failure to translocate septin rings to CRMs delays the cell’s ability to re-enter cell division when ER homeostasis is re-established. Thus, ER stress considers the history of previous cell cycle for future cell cycle re-entry upon ER stress recovery.

In metazoans, the architecture of the endoplasmic reticulum (ER) differs between cell types, and undergoes major changes through the cell cycle and according to physiological needs. Although much is known about how the different ER morphologies are generated and maintained, especially the ER tubules, how context dependent changes in ER shape and distribution are regulated and the factors involved are less characterized. Here, we show that RHBDL4, an ER-resident rhomboid protease, modulates the shape and distribution of the ER, especially under conditions that require rapid changes in the ER sheet distribution, including ER stress. RHBDL4 interacts with CLIMP-63, a protein involved in ER sheet stabilisation, and with the cytoskeleton. Mice lacking RHBDL4 are sensitive to ER stress and develop liver steatosis, a phenotype associated with unresolved ER stress. Our data introduce a new physiological role of RHBDL4 and also imply that this function does not require its enzymatic activity.

Stress induced by cytoplasmic protein aggregates can have deleterious consequences for the cell, contributing to neurodegeneration and other diseases. Protein aggregates are also formed within the endoplasmic reticulum (ER), although the fate of ER protein aggregates, specifically during cell division, is not well understood. By simultaneous visualization of both the ER itself and ER protein aggregates, we found that ER protein aggregates that induce ER stress are retained in the mother cell by activation of the ER Stress Surveillance (ERSU) pathway, which prevents inheritance of stressed ER. In contrast, under conditions of normal ER inheritance, ER protein aggregates can enter the daughter cell. Thus, whereas cytoplasmic protein aggregates are retained in the mother cell to protect the functional capacity of daughter cells, the fate of ER protein aggregates is determined by whether or not they activate the ERSU pathway to impede transmission of the cortical ER during the cell cycle.

This study aimed to evaluate the modes of action of harringtonine (HT) and homoharringtonine (HHT) alkaloids in cell with wild (HepG2/C3A) and mutant p53 (HuH-7.5). We performed assays for cytotoxicity, genotoxicity, induction of apoptosis, cell cycle phase, and membrane integrity. Obtained data were compared with the relative expression of mRNA of genes related to proliferation, apoptosis, cell cycle control, metabolism of xenobiotics, and reticulum endoplasmic stress. The relative expression of the genes showed an increase in apoptosis-inducing mRNAs, such as TNF and BBC3, as well as a reduction in BCL2 and BAK. The mRNAs of CYP2E1 and CYP2C19 xenobiotic metabolism genes increased in both lineages, while CYP3A4 increased only in the HuH-7.5 lineage. The mRNA expression of endoplasmic reticulum (ER) stress genes ( ERN1 and EIF2AK3) was shown to increase in HHT and HT treatments. A similar increase was recorded in the mRNA expression of the TRAF2 gene. The changes observed in this study support the hypothesis that ER stress was more strongly associated with TNF induction, causing cell death by apoptosis in p53 mutant cells. This result with wild and mutant p53 cells may have clinical implications in the use of these compounds.
