Inducible NOS-induced chloride intracellular channel 4 (CLIC4) nuclear translocation regulates macrophage deactivation.
Nuclear translocation of cytosolic CLIC4 is an essential feature of its proapoptotic and prodifferentiation functions. Here we demonstrate that CLIC4 is induced concurrently with inducible nitric oxide synthase (iNOS) and S-nitrosylated in proinflammatory peritoneal macrophages. Chemical inhibition or genetic ablation of iNOS inhibits S-nitrosylation and nuclear translocation of CLIC4. In macro...
متن کاملAbsence of chloride intracellular channel 4 (CLIC4) predisposes to acute kidney injury but has minimal impact on recovery
BACKGROUND CLIC4, a member of the CLIC family of proteins, was recently demonstrated to translocate to the nucleus in differentiating keratinocytes where it potentiates TGFβ-driven gene regulation. Since TGFβ signaling is known to play important roles in the fibrotic response to acute kidney injury, and since CLIC4 is abundantly expressed in kidney, we hypothesized that CLIC4 may play a role in...
متن کاملExpression, purification, crystallization and preliminary crystallographic analysis of the human intracellular chloride channel protein CLIC4.
The human chloride intracellular channel protein CLIC4 has been crystallized by the hanging-drop vapour-diffusion technique using trisodium citrate as the precipitant. The best crystals were obtained by the microseeding method. The crystals diffracted to 2.2 A resolution and were found to belong to space group P121, with unit-cell parameters a = 73.19, b =86.05, c = 73.38 A, beta = 112.99 degre...
متن کاملChloride intracellular channel 4 is required for maturation of the cerebral collateral circulation.
The number and diameter of native collaterals in tissues of healthy mice vary widely, resulting in large differences in tissue injury in occlusive diseases. Recent studies suggest similar variation may exist in humans. Collateral variation in mice is determined by genetic background-dependent differences in embryonic collateral formation, by variation in maturation of the nascent collaterals, a...
متن کاملAberrant chloride intracellular channel 4 expression contributes to endothelial dysfunction in pulmonary arterial hypertension.
BACKGROUND Chloride intracellular channel 4 (CLIC4) is highly expressed in the endothelium of remodeled pulmonary vessels and plexiform lesions of patients with pulmonary arterial hypertension. CLIC4 regulates vasculogenesis through endothelial tube formation. Aberrant CLIC4 expression may contribute to the vascular pathology of pulmonary arterial hypertension. METHODS AND RESULTS CLIC4 prote...
