The severe phenotype of Diamond-Blackfan anemia is modulated by heat shock protein 70.
2017
International audience; Diamond-Blackfan anemia (DBA) is a rare congenital bone marrow failure syndrome that exhibits an erythroid-specific phenotype. In at least 70% of cases, DBA is related to a haploinsufficient germ line mutation in a ribosomal protein (RP) gene. Additional cases have been associated with mutations in GATA1. We have previously established that the RPL11+/Mut phenotype is more severe than RPS19+/Mut phenotype because of delayed erythroid differentiation and increased apoptosis of RPL11+/Mut erythroid progenitors. The HSP70 protein is known to protect GATA1, the major erythroid transcription factor, from caspase-3 mediated cleavage during normal erythroid differentiation.…
HSP70 sequestration by free α-globin promotes ineffective erythropoiesis in β-thalassaemia
2014
International audience; β-Thalassaemia major (β-TM) is an inherited haemoglobinopathy caused by a quantitative defect in the synthesis of β-globin chains of haemoglobin, leading to the accumulation of free α-globin chains that form toxic aggregates. Despite extensive knowledge of the molecular defects causing β-TM, little is known of the mechanisms responsible for the ineffective erythropoiesis observed in the condition, which is characterized by accelerated erythroid differentiation, maturation arrest and apoptosis at the polychromatophilic stage. We have previously demonstrated that normal human erythroid maturation requires a transient activation of caspase-3 at the later stages of matur…

Abstract Background We and others have shown that normal human erythroid cell maturation requires a transient activation of caspase-3 at late stages of maturation (Zermati et al, J Exp Med 2001). We further documented that, in human erythroblasts, the chaperone HSP70 is constitutively expressed and, at late stages of maturation, translocates into the nucleus and protects GATA-1, the master transcriptional factor critical for erythropoiesis, from caspase-3 cleavage (Ribeil et al, Nature 2007). During the maturation of human β-TM erythroblasts, HSP70 is sequestrated by excess of α-globin chains in the cytoplasm and as a consequence, GATA-1 is no longer protected from caspase-3 cleavage result…
XPO1 regulates erythroid differentiation and is a new target for the treatment of β-thalassemia
2019
β-thalassemia major (β-TM) is an inherited hemoglobinopathy caused by a quantitative defect in the synthesis of β-globin chains of hemoglobin, leading to the accumulation of free a-globin chains that aggregate and cause ineffective erythropoiesis. We have previously demonstrated that terminal erythroid maturation requires a transient activation of caspase-3 and that the chaperone Heat Shock Protein 70 (HSP70) accumulates in the nucleus to protect GATA-1 transcription factor from caspase-3 cleavage. This nuclear accumulation of HSP70 is inhibited in human β-TM erythroblasts due to HSP70 sequestration in the cytoplasm by free a-globin chains, resulting in maturation arrest and apoptosis. Like…
