Selenoprotein K contributes to CD36 subcellular trafficking in hepatocytes by accelerating nascent COPII vesicle formation and aggravates hepatic steatosis.
Redox Biology 2022 October 8
SelenoproteinK (SelK), an endoplasmic reticulum (ER) - resident protein, possesses the property of mediate oxidation resistance and ER - associated protein degradation (ERAD) in several tissues. Here, we found that increased SelK markedly promotes fatty acid translocase (CD36) subcellular trafficking and aggravates lipid accumulation in hepatocytes. We demonstrated that SelK is required for the assembly of COPII vesicles and accelerates transport of palmitoylated-CD36 from the ER to Golgi, thus facilitating CD36 plasma membrane distribution both in vivo and in vitro. The mechanism is that SelK increases the stability of Sar1B and triggers CD36-containing nascent COPII vesicle formation, consequently, promotes CD36 subcellular trafficking. Furthermore, we verified that the intervention of SelK SH3 binding domain can inhibit the vesicle formation and CD36 subcellular trafficking, significantly ameliorates NAFLD in mice. Collectively, our findings disclose an unexpected role of SelK in regulating NAFLD development, suggesting that targeting the SelK of hepatocytes may be a new therapeutic strategy for the treatment of NAFLD.
