Synthesis pass · prose summary of the discoveries below

VAMP8 (endobrevin) is an R-SNARE (v-SNARE) that drives membrane fusion across two broad functional domains: the late endocytic/autophagic pathway and regulated exocytosis from specialized secretory cells (PMID:10982406, PMID:15363411). In the endolysosomal system, VAMP8 partners with the Q-SNARE complex syntaxin 7/Vti1b/syntaxin 8 to mediate homotypic late-endosome fusion, with VAMP7 substituting for heterotypic late-endosome–lysosome fusion, defining combinatorial SNARE specificity (PMID:10982406, PMID:15133481). In autophagy, VAMP8 assembles with STX17 and SNAP29 to execute autophagosome-lysosome fusion, a step required for canonical autophagy and xenophagy (PMID:20089838, PMID:34785650). In regulated secretion, VAMP8 forms complexes with syntaxin 4 and SNAP-23 (and syntaxin 3) to serve as the principal v-SNARE for stimulated exocytosis from a striking range of cell types: pancreatic acinar zymogen granules, where it specifically mediates granule-to-granule compound fusion (PMID:15363411, PMID:21733851); platelet dense and alpha granules (PMID:17065550, PMID:12130530); mast cell secretory granules (PMID:17618625, PMID:18203950); cytotoxic lymphocyte lytic granules (PMID:19830729, PMID:26124288); macrophage TNF-alpha granules (PMID:19564343); goblet cell mucin granules (PMID:22144578, PMID:31541089); endothelial Weibel-Palade bodies (PMID:30630984); and AQP2- and GLUT4-containing vesicles in epithelial and metabolic tissues (PMID:19841070, PMID:20876717). VAMP8 activity is post-translationally gated: mTORC1 phosphorylation blocks STX17-SNAP29-VAMP8 assembly and is countered by recruitment of the Sec1/Munc18 protein SCFD1 (PMID:34785650), while DRAM1 stabilizes lysosomal VAMP8 by competitively inhibiting CHIP-mediated ubiquitination at Lys68/72/75 (PMID:40595569). Beyond fusion, VAMP8 traffics the NOX2 oxidase to phagosomes and endosomes to support reactive oxygen production and MHC class I cross-presentation, a function pathogens such as Leishmania subvert by GP63-mediated VAMP8 cleavage (PMID:23870310, PMID:28688576). VAMP8-null mice exhibit accumulation of secretory granules and broad secretion defects across exocrine, immune, and metabolic tissues, with downstream consequences including intestinal mucus dysfunction and colitis susceptibility (PMID:15363411, PMID:31541089).

2021 mTORC1 directly phosphorylates VAMP8, inhibiting formation of the STX17-SNAP29-VAMP8 SNARE complex and thereby blocking autophagosome-lysosome fusion. A VAMP8 phosphorylation mimic mutant fails to promote autophagosome-lysosome fusion in vitro. Dephosphorylated VAMP8 promotes recruitment of SCFD1 (Sec1/Munc18-like protein) to autolysosomes; phosphorylated VAMP8 or SCFD1 depletion inhibits fusion.

2014 VAMP8-mediated ZG exocytosis depends on constitutive-like secretory pathway via early endosomal proteins Rab5/D52/EEA1; VAMP8-/- acini show >90% decrease in Rab5/D52/EEA1 and increased Rab11a/TI-VAMP7 on ZGs. GDP-trapped Rab11a-S25N specifically inhibits the VAMP8 but not VAMP2 secretion pathway; rescue of Rab5/D52/EEA1 expression restores VAMP8-dependent secretion. VAMP8-/- acini, Rab11a dominant-negative expression, adenoviral D52/Rab5 rescue, perifusion secretion kinetics assay, confocal colocalization The Journal of biological chemistry High 25138214
2018 O-GlcNAc modification of SNAP29 inhibits formation of the SNAP29-STX17-VAMP8 SNARE complex; co-immunoprecipitation in diabetic rat cardiomyocytes showed that increased O-GlcNAc-SNAP29 disrupts STX17-VAMP8 complex assembly, blocking autophagic flux and exacerbating myocardial injury. Co-immunoprecipitation of SNAP29-STX17-VAMP8 complex, O-GlcNAc modification assay, STZ diabetic rat model, thiamet G and DON pharmacological tools, autophagy flux assay International journal of molecular medicine Medium 30221662
2009 In dendritic cells, caspases regulate VAMP-8 expression; VAMP-8 protein is a substrate of caspases, and treatment with caspase inhibitor upregulates VAMP-8. Consistent with VAMP-8's role in inhibiting phagocytosis in DCs, immature DCs treated with caspase inhibitor show lower phagocytosis activity. Caspase inhibitor treatment, VAMP-8 expression analysis, phagocytosis assay, identification of caspase cleavage sites on VAMP-8 Biochemical and biophysical research communications Low 19607812
2020 VAMP8 overexpression in neuronal cells (N2a) significantly increases tau secretion via late endosome-plasma membrane fusion, reducing intracellular tau levels; TIRF microscopy shows fusion of VAMP8-positive vesicles with plasma membrane correlates with cytoplasmic tau depletion. VAMP8 overexpression also reduces intracellular α-synuclein by increasing secretion.

2022 Oxidative stress inhibits endocytosis, decreasing lysosomal localization of VAMP8 and blocking autophagosome-lysosome fusion in human neuroblastoma cells; treatment with an endocytosis inhibitor recapitulates the VAMP8 lysosomal depletion and autophagy block, establishing that endocytic trafficking is required for VAMP8 delivery to lysosomes for autophagy.

2023 CENPN inhibits VAMP8 transcription by reducing phospho-CREB binding to the VAMP8 promoter; CENPN knockdown increases p-CREB nuclear translocation and VAMP8 expression, enhancing autophagic flux and paclitaxel sensitivity in nasopharyngeal carcinoma. Sequential knockdown of CENPN and VAMP8 reverses the PTX-sensitizing effect of CENPN knockdown, confirming VAMP8 as the mediator.

2023 VAMP8 interacts with DDX5 in osteosarcoma cells; this interaction promotes DDX5 degradation via the ubiquitin-proteasome system, reducing β-catenin levels and suppressing EMT and metastasis. VAMP8 also promotes autophagy flux as a potential additional metastasis-suppressive mechanism.
