International audience; Induction of apoptosis by TNF has recently been shown to implicate proteases from lysosomal origin, the cathepsins. Here, we investigated the role in apoptosis of palmitoyl protein thioesterase 1 (PPT1), another lysosomal enzyme that depalmitoylates proteins. We show that transformed fibroblasts derived from patients with the infantile form of neuronal ceroid lipofuscinosis (INCL), a neurodegenerative disease due to deficient activity of PPT1, are partially resistant to TNF-induced cell death (57-75% cell viability vs. 15-30% for control fibroblasts). TNF-initiated proteolytic cleavage of caspase-8, Bid and caspase-3, as well as cytochrome c release was strongly attenuated in INCL fibroblasts as compared to control cells. Noteworthy, activation of p42/p44 mitogen-activated protein kinase and of transcription factor NF-kappaB by TNF, and induction of cell death by staurosporine or chemotherapeutic drugs in INCL cells were unaffected by PPT1 deficiency. Resistance to TNF-induced apoptosis was also observed in embryonic fibroblasts derived from Ppt1/Cln1-deficient mice but not from mice with a targeted deletion of Cln3 or Cln5. Finally, reconstitution of PPT1 activity in mutant cells was accompanied by resensitization to TNF-induced caspase activation and toxicity. These observations emphasize for the first time the role of PPT1 and, likely, protein depalmitoylation in the regulation of TNF-induced apoptosis.
