Project description:Lung cancer is the most frequent cancer-related cause of death, and adenocarcinoma (LUAD) is the most frequent type. Despite the recent success of immunotherapies, survival of lung cancer patients has not significantly improved in the last decades. New therapies are necessary. We have previously identified sodium-glucose transporter 2 (SGLT2) as the major responsible for glucose uptake in LUAD, and we have showed that treatment with SGLT2 inhibitors significantly delays LUAD development and prolongs survival in murine models. However, our data shows that SGLT2 inhibitors also induce de-differentiation of LUAD cells, leading to a more aggressive phenotype and increased resistance to cisplatin. Glucose deprivation causes reduced αKG levels, leading to reduced activity of αKG-dependent histone demethylases and consequent histone hypermethylation. Supplementation of αKG or inhibition of the histone methyltransferase EZH2 reverse this phenotype, suggesting that this de-differentiated phenotype depends on insufficiency of αKG-dependent histone demethylases and unbalanced EZH2 activity. Consistently, double treatment with an SGLT2 inhibitor and an EZH2 inhibitor significantly reduces the tumor burden in a genetically engineered murine model of LUAD. We further characterized the effect of low glucose-induced tumor de-differentiation, identifying stabilization of hypoxia inducible factor 1α (HIF1α) as a major pathway responsible for the acquisition of a more aggressive phenotype following glucose deprivation. Finally, we identified an HIF1α-dependent transcriptional signature with prognostic significance in human LUAD. Our studies further our knowledge of the relationship between glucose metabolism and cell differentiation in cancer, characterizing the epigenetic adaptation of cancer cells to nutrient deprivation and identifying novel targets to prevent the development of resistance to metabolic therapies.

Project description:Elucidating the role of gut microbiota in physiological and pathological processes has recently emerged as a key research aim in life sciences. In this respect, metaproteomics (the study of the whole protein complement of a microbial community) can provide a unique contribution by revealing which functions are actually being expressed by specific microbial taxa. However, its wide application to gut microbiota research has been hindered by challenges in data analysis, especially related to the choice of the proper sequence databases for protein identification. Here we present a systematic investigation of variables concerning database construction and annotation, and evaluate their impact on human and mouse gut metaproteomic results. We found that both publicly available and experimental metagenomic databases lead to the identification of unique peptide assortments, suggesting parallel database searches as a mean to gain more complete information. Taxonomic and functional results were revealed to be strongly database-dependent, especially when dealing with mouse samples. As a striking example, in mouse the Firmicutes/Bacteroidetes ratio varied up to 10-fold depending on the database used. Finally, we provide recommendations regarding metagenomic sequence processing aimed at maximizing gut metaproteome characterization, and contribute to identify an optimized pipeline for metaproteomic data analysis.

Project description:Urea can serve as nitrogen source for coral holobionts and plays a cruscial role in coral calcification, although the degradation of urea by coral symbionts is not fully understood. In this study, we investigated the urea utilized pathway and the responses of the Symbiodiniaceae family to urea under high temperature conditions. Genome screening revealed that all Symbiodiniaceae species contain the urease (URE) and DUR2 subunit of urea amidolyase (UAD) system. However, only three speciesCladocopium goreaui, Cladopium c92, and Symbiodinium pilosum possess a complete UAD system, including both DUR1 and DUR2. Phylogentic analyses revealed that the UAD system in Symbiodiniaceae clusters more closely with symbiotic bacteria, indicating that horizontal gene transfer of UAD system has occured in coral symbionts. Physiology analysis showed that the symbiodiniacean species Cladocopium goreaui, which containing both URE and UAD, grew better under urea than ammonium conditions, as indicated by higher maximum specific growth rates. Furthermore, most genes of Symbiodiniaceae involved in urea utilization appeared to be stable under various conditions such as heat stress (HS), low light density, and nitrogen deficiency, wheras in ammonium and nitrate transporters were significantly regulated. These relatively stable molecular regulatory properties support sustained urea absorption by Symbiodiniaceae, as evidenced by an increase in δ15N2-urea absorption and the decreases in δ5N-NO3-, and δ15N-NH4+ from cultural environment to Symbiodiniaceae under HS conditions. Token together, this study reveals two distinct urea utilization systems in coral ecosystem and highlights the importance of the urea cycle in coral symbionts when facing fluctuating nitrogen environment in future warming ocean.

Project description:Glioblastoma (GBM) is the most frequent and aggressive form of primary brain tumor in the adult population, and the high recurrence rate and resistance to current therapeutics urgently demand a better therapy for this disease. Regulation of protein stability by the ubiquitin proteasome system (UPS) represents an important control mechanism of cell growth. Deregulation of UPS is mechanistically linked to the development and progression of a variety of human cancers, including GBM. Thus, UPS system represents a valuable target for GBM treatment. Here, we find that the E3 ligase praja2 selectively marks primary IDH1-wild type GBM. By using an integrated approach, including proteomics, transcriptomics and metabolic profiling, we identify praja2 as a main component of a signaling network that regulates cancer cell growth and metabolism. We show that praja2 binds and regulates the stability of the Kinase Suppressor of Ras 2 (KSR2) and as consequence, the activity of the downstream AMP-dependent protein kinase (AMPK) in GBM cells. By degrading KSR2, praja2 attenuates the oxidative metabolism and promotes the aerobic glycolysis (Warburg effect). Brain delivery of siRNAs targeting praja2 upregulates KSR2 and negatively impacted on GBM growth, reducing the tumor size and significantly improving the survival rate of treated mice. These data highlight the role of praja2 as an essential regulator of cancer cell metabolism, and as a preferential therapeutic target to suppress GBM growth

Project description:Clear cell renal cell carcinoma (ccRCC) is the most common variant of kidney cancer in the adult population. Late diagnosis, resistance to therapeutics and recurrence of metastatic lesions account for the highest mortality rate among kidney cancer patients. Identifying novel biomarkers for early cancer detection and the mechanisms underlying ccRCC growth and progression will provide clues to treat this aggressive malignant tumor. Here, we report that the RING ligase praja2 is a novel component of the endocytic system that supports clathrin-mediated receptor endocytosis. At molecular level, we identify the adaptor protein AP2 as a binding partner and substrate of praja2. Functionally, we demonstrate that praja2 is required for AP2-mediated receptor endocytosis and clearance. Downregulation of praja2 in RCC cells and tissues is associated with a marked upregulation of membrane receptors, as EGFR, VEGFR and TfR. A negative feedback loop links EGF signaling to proteolysis of praja2 and sustains downstream mitogenic and proliferative pathways. Restoring praja2 expression in RCC cells remarkably decreases EGFR levels, rewires cancer cell metabolism and inhibits RCC growth and metastatic diffusion. In praja2 knockout mice, upregulation of RTKs levels associates with profound histopathological renal alterations. Our findings identify praja2 as a component of the endocytic pathway that supports receptor endocytosis and clearance. Downregulation of praja2 in RCC cells, thus, sustains RTK signaling and promotes kidney cancer growth and diffusion.

Project description:Background: Osteosarcomas are the most common primary malignant tumors of bone and show multiple and complex genomic aberrations. miRNAs are non-coding RNAs capable of regulating gene expression at the post transcriptional level, and miRNAs and their target genes may represent novel therapeutic targets or biomarkers for osteosarcoma. In order to investigate the involvement of miRNAs in osteosarcoma development, global microarray analyses of a panel of 19 human osteosarcoma cell lines was performed. Principal findings: We identified 177 miRNAs that were differentially expressed in osteosarcoma cell lines relative to normal bone. Among these, miR-126/miR-126*, miR-142-3p, miR-150, miR-223, miR-486-5p and members of the miR-1/miR-133a, miR-144/miR-451, miR-195/miR-497, and miR-206/miR-133b clusters were found to be downregulated in osteosarcoma cell lines. All miRNAs in the paralogous clusters miR-17-92, miR-106b-25 and miR-106a-92 were overexpressed. Furthermore, the upregulated miRNAs included miR-9/miR-9*, miR-21*, miR-31/miR-31*, miR-196a/miR-196b, miR-374a and members of the miR-29, miR-130/301 families. The most interesting inversely correlated miRNA/mRNA pairs in osteosarcoma cell lines included miR-9/TGFBR2 and miR-29/the p85M-NM-1 regulatory subunit of PI3K. PTEN mRNA correlated inversely with miR-92a and members of the miR-17 and miR-130/301 families. Expression profiles of selected miRNAs were confirmed in clinical samples. A set of miRNAs, miR-1, miR-18a, miR-18b, miR-19b, miR-31, miR-126, miR-142-3p, miR-133b, miR-144, miR-195, miR-223, miR-451 and miR-497 was identified with an intermediate expression level in osteosarcoma clinical samples compared to osteoblasts and bone, which may reflect the differentiation level of osteosarcoma relative to the undifferentiated osteoblast and fully differentiated normal bone. Significance: This study provides an integrated analysis of miRNA and mRNA in osteosarcoma, and gives new insight into the complex genetic mechanisms of osteosarcoma development and progression. 19 osteosarcoma cell lines, 4 normal bones used as controls. No replicates. The group of osteosarcomas are compared to the group of normal bones.

Project description:Currently, it is well established that human endothelial cells (ECs) are characterised by a significant heterogeneity between distinct blood vessels, e.g., arteries, veins, capillaries, and lymphatic vessels. Further, even ECs belonging to the same lineage but grown under different flow patterns (e.g., laminar and oscillatory or turbulent flow) ostensibly have distinct molecular profiles defining their physiological behaviour. Human coronary artery endothelial cells (HCAEC) and human internal thoracic artery endothelial cells (HITAEC) represent two cell lines inhabiting atheroprone and atheroresistant blood vessels (coronary artery and internal thoracic artery, respectively). Resistance of the internal mammary artery to atherosclerosis has been largely attributed to the protective phenotype of HITAEC which reportedly produce higher amounts of vasodilators including nitric oxide (NO) through the respective signaling pathways. However, this hypothesis has not been adequately addressed hitherto as proteomic profiling of HCAEC and HITAEC in a head-to-head comparison setting has not been performed.
