TANGO1 inhibitors reduce collagen secretion and limit tissue scarring

I. Raote, A. Rosendahl, et al.

Researchers including Ishier Raote and Ann-Helen Rosendahl have developed innovative membrane-permeant peptide inhibitors that target the TANGO1-cTAGE5 interaction, crucial for collagen export. This study uncovers promising strategies to modulate ECM hypersecretion, significantly reducing excessive scarring and fibrosis in zebrafish and human dermal cells.

Abstract
Uncontrolled secretion of ECM proteins, such as collagen, can lead to excessive scarring and fibrosis and compromise tissue function. The study designed membrane-permeant peptide inhibitors targeting the TANGO1-cTAGE5 interaction, crucial for collagen export from the endoplasmic reticulum. These inhibitors reduced TANGO1 and cTAGE5 protein levels, inhibiting ECM component secretion. In zebrafish, this led to altered tissue architecture and reduced scar formation. The inhibitors also reduced ECM protein secretion in human dermal fibroblasts and scleroderma patient cells. Targeted interference of TANGO1-cTAGE5 binding could therapeutically modulate ECM hypersecretion.
