Glycine decarboxylase is a metabolic oncogene critical for tumor initiating cells and tumorigenesis in lung cancer

ABSTRACT: New approaches to cancer therapies could benefit from a better understanding of the molecular determinants critical to tumor initiating cells (TICs). Here we show that the metabolic enzyme glycine decarboxylase (GLDC) is critical for TICs in non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC). From a broad range of primary NSCLC tumors, we isolated CD166+ lung TICs that consistently initiated tumorigenesis in NOD/SCID Il2rγ-/- mice. Lung TICs express high levels of the oncogenic stem cell factor LIN28B and the metabolic enzyme GLDC. Over-expression of GLDC and other glycine/serine metabolism enzymes, but not catalytically inactive GLDC, promotes cellular transformation and tumorigenesis. Metabolomic analysis found that GLDC induces dramatic changes in glycolysis and glycine/serine metabolism, leading to changes in pyrimidine metabolism to regulate cancer cell proliferation. Clinically, GLDC over-expression, observed in multiple cancer types, predicts poorer survival in lung cancer patients. Our findings establish a novel link between glycine metabolism and tumorigenesis, and provide novel targets for advancing anti-cancer therapy.

Tumor-initiating cell-specific miR-1246 and miR-1290 converge to promote non-small cell lung cancer progression [Illumina]

Project description:The tumor-initiating cell (TIC) model accounts for the phenotypic and functional heterogeneity among cancer cells found within human cancers. MicroRNAs (miRNAs) are key regulatory molecules frequently aberrantly expressed in tumors, and may play important roles in contributing towards tumor heterogeneity and TIC behavior. More recent efforts have focused on miRNAs for diagnosis and as targets for novel therapies. In this study, we identified the miRNAs, miR-1246 and miR-1290, which are crucial for the function of TICs, thereby driving cancer progression in human non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC). These miRNAs are restricted to patient-derived tumorspheres and CD166+ primary tumor cells, both enriched for TICs. Loss of either miRNA impacted the tumorigenic potential of TICs and their ability to metastasize. Interestingly, longitudinal analyses of serum miR-1246 and miR-1290 levels correlated circulating levels of either miRNA to the clinical response seen in lung cancer patients to epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) tyrosine kinase inhibition, chemotherapy and radiotherapy. Functionally, direct inhibition of miR-1246 or miR-1290 with locked nucleic acid (LNA) administered systemically, could arrest the growth of established patient-derived tumors xenografted in immunocompromised mice, thus indicating these miRNAs are clinically useful as biomarkers for tracking disease progression and as therapeutic targets.

Transcription profiling of NCI-H460 growth as spheres or in adherent conditions

Project description:In this study, we provide evidence that spheroids cells isolated from established human NSCLC cell lines are highly enriched in NSCLC-TICs that aberrant Akt-IL6-Stat3 signalling axis is necessary for self-renewal of lung TICs in vitro and for tumor formation in vivo.

Transcriptomic Analysis of Non-small Cell Lung Cancer Stem Cells

Project description:This study was designed to understand the transcriptomic composition and the biological functions of cancer stem cells isolated from non-small cell lung cancer line (NSCLC) Putative lung cancer stem cells were isolated from cancer cell lines based on expression of known stem cell surface markers: CD166, CD44 and EpCAM using the Fluorescence Activated Cell Sorter (FACS). Affymetrix microarray were performed on cancer stem cells isolated from normal lung epithelial cells and lung cancer cell lines (A549 and NCI-H2170) using GeneChip Human Gene 1.0 ST array. The normal putative stem cells isolated from normal primary human bronchial/trachial epithelial cell line (PHBEC) was serve as control. Putative cancer stem cells isolated from A549 and NCI-H2170 cell lines are the treatment group. Each sample was performed in triplicate and total number of samples are five (n=5)

REQUIREMENT FOR PKC EPSILON IN KRAS-DRIVEN LUNG TUMORIGENESIS

Project description:Non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC), the most frequent subtype of lung cancer, remains a highly lethal malignancy and one of the leading causes of cancer deaths worldwide. Mutant KRAS is the prevailing oncogenic driver of lung adenocarcinoma, the most common histological form of NSCLC. In this study, we examined the role of PKCe, an oncogenic kinase highly expressed in NSCLC and other cancers, in KRAS-driven tumorigenesis. Notably, database analysis revealed an association between PKCe expression and poor outcome in lung adenocarcinoma patients specifically having KRAS mutation. By generating a PKCe-deficient, conditionally activatable allele of oncogenic Kras (LSL-Kras G12D ;PKCe -/- mice) we were able to demonstrate the requirement of PKCe for Kras-driven lung tumorigenesis in vivo, which is consistent with the impaired transformed growth observed in PKCe-deficient KRAS-dependent NSCLC cells. Moreover, PKCe-knockout mice were found to be less susceptible to lung tumorigenesis induced by benzo[a]pyrene, a carcinogen that induces mutations in Kras. Mechanistic analysis using RNA-Seq revealed little overlapping for PKCe and KRAS in the control of genes/biological pathways relevant in NSCLC, suggesting that a permissive role of PKCe in KRAS-driven lung tumorigenesis may involve non-redundant mechanisms. Our results thus highlight the relevance and potential of targeting PKCe for lung cancer therapeutics.

Circular RNA expression profile in mitochondria fractions of liver tumour-initiating cells

Project description:Tumour-initiating cells (TICs), also termed as cancer stem cells, contribute to tumour initiation, metastasis, progression and drug resistance. Metabolic reprogramming is a cancer hallmark and plays vital roles in liver tumorigenesis. However, the role of metabolic reprogramming in TICs remains poorly explored.Here we isolated mitochondria from liver TICs and non-TICs, and detected the expression levels of mitochondrial encoded circRNAs in TICs and non-TICs.

Expression data of peritoneal macrophages from Wild-type mouse cultured in control or serine/glycine-depleted medium.

Project description:Activation of signaling pathways downstream of Toll-like receptor 4 upregulate expression of genes related to serine metabolism. We cultured peritoneal macrophages in control or serine/glycine-depleted medium for 24 hr, stimulated them with LPS (10 ng/ml) for 6 or 12 hr, and collected them to compare the gene expression. Microarray analysis revealed that serine/glycine-depletion in peritoneal macrophages upregulates gene expression of enzymes for serine biosynthesis.
