摘要
Podosomes and invadopodia, collectively termed invadosomes, are important adhesive and degradative units formed in macrophages, osteoclasts, dendritic cells, cancer cells, and many other cell types. Invadosomes are well known for recruiting proteases that degrade matrix proteins and facilitate cell invasion. In contrast to the extensively studied proteases, another important class of degradative enzymes, DNase, remains uninvestigated and in fact, unknown in invadosomes. Using surface nuclease sensor (SNS), which reports deoxyribonuclease (DNase) activity on the cell membrane by fluorescence signal, we revealed that invadosomes, regardless of cell types or species, universally recruit DNase and readily degrade extracellular double-stranded DNA (dsDNA). We identified the recruited DNase as GPI-anchored membrane protein DNase X which functions locally at the cell-substrate interface and is co-localized with the actin cores of the invadosomes. DNase recruitment is highly consistent and rapid in invadosomes. Co-imaging of F-actin and DNase activity shows that 46-86% invadosomes (dependent on cell types) have associated DNase activities. Time series imaging shows that DNase becomes active within a minute after the actin nucleation, functioning concomitantly with protease activity in podosomes but preceding it in invadopodia. Overall, this discovery suggests a richer arsenal of degradative enzymes in invadosomes at the cell-substrate interface. This work would likely prompt more studies to investigate DNase in invadosomes, in particular, to understand the physiological role of invadosome-associated membrane DNase in cell functions such as immune response, cell migration, matrix remodeling, etc.
