Dihydrolipoamide dehydrogenase (DLD) is a novel molecular target of bortezomib.

ABSTRACT: Proteasome inhibitors (PIs), such as bortezomib and calfizomib, were backbone agents in the treatment of multiple myeloma (MM). In this study, we investigated bortezomib interactors in MM cells and identified dihydrolipoamide dehydrogenase (DLD) as a molecular target of bortezomib. DLD catalyzes the oxidation of dihydrolipoamide to form lipoamide, a reaction that also generates NADH. Our data showed that bortezomib bound to DLD and inhibited DLD's enzymatic function in MM cells. DLD knocked down MM cells (DLD-KD) had decreased levels of NADH. Reduced NADH suppressed assembly of proteasome complex in cells. As a result, DLD-KD MM cells had decreased basal-level proteasome activity and were more sensitive to bortezomib. Since PIs were used in many anti-MM regimens in clinics, we found that high expression of DLD correlated with inferior prognosis of MM. Considering the regulatory role of DLD in proteasome assembly, we evaluated DLD targeting therapy in MM cells. DLD inhibitor CPI-613 showed a synergistic anti-MM effect with bortezomib in vitro and in vivo. Overall, our findings elucidated DLD as an alternative molecular target of bortezomib in MM. DLD-targeting might increase MM sensitivity to PIs.

Project description:Dihydrolipoamide dehydrogenase (DLD; E3) oxidizes lipoic acid. Restoring the oxidized state allows lipoic acid to act as a necessary electron sink for the four mitochondrial keto-acid dehydrogenases: pyruvate dehydrogenase, alpha-ketoglutarate dehydrogenase, branched-chain α-keto-acid dehydrogenase, and 2-oxoadipate dehydrogenase. DLD deficiency (DLDD) is caused by biallelic pathogenic variants in DLD. Three major forms have been described: encephalopathic, hepatic, and myopathic, although DLDD patients exhibit overlapping phenotypes. Hyperlactatemia, hyperexcretion of tricarboxylic acid cycle (TCA) metabolites and branched-chain keto acids, increased plasma branched-chain amino acids and allo-isoleucine are intermittent metabolic abnormalities reported in patients with DLDD. However, the diagnostic performance of these metabolites has never been studied. Therefore, we sought to systematically evaluate the diagnostic utility of these biomarkers for DLDD. We retrospectively analyzed the results of biochemical testing of six unrelated DLDD patients, including values obtained during both well visits and acute decompensation episodes. Elevation of branched-chain amino acid concentrations was not consistently observed. We found that five of six patients in our cohort had a maximum lifetime value of allo-isoleucine of 6 μmol/L, showing that alloisoleucine elevations even during illness may be subtle. Urine organic acid analysis (UOA) during acute decompensation episodes was abnormal in all cases; however, the pattern of abnormalities had high intersubject variability. No single biomarker was universally present, even in patients experiencing metabolic decompensation. We also observed novel biochemical associations: three patients had hyperexcretion of TCA cycle metabolites during crisis; in two patients, 2-ketoadipic and 2-hydroxyadipic acids, by products of lysine degradation, were detected. We propose that these result from 2-oxoadipate dehydrogenase deficiency, an underappreciated biochemical abnormality in DLD. Given the diversity of biochemical profiles among the patients with DLDD, we conclude that accurate biochemical diagnosis relies on a high index of suspicion and multipronged biochemical analysis, including both plasma amino acid and urine organic acid quantitation during decompensation. Biochemical diagnosis during the well state is challenging. We emphasize the critical importance of multiple simultaneous biochemical tests for diagnosis and monitoring of DLDD. We also highlight the under-recognized role of DLD in the lysine degradation pathway. Larger cohorts of patients are needed to establish a correlation between the biochemical pattern and clinical outcomes, as well as a genotype-phenotype correlation.

Project description:Under oxidative stress conditions, mitochondria are the major site for cellular production of reactive oxygen species (ROS) such as superoxide anion and H2O2 that can attack numerous mitochondrial proteins including dihydrolipoamide dehydrogenase (DLDH). While DLDH is known to be vulnerable to oxidative inactivation, the mechanisms have not been clearly elucidated. The present study was therefore designed to investigate the mechanisms of DLDH oxidative inactivation by mitochondrial reactive oxygen species (ROS). Mitochondria, isolated from rat brain, were incubated with mitochondrial respiratory substrates such as pyruvate/malate or succinate in the presence of electron transport chain inhibitors such as rotenone or antimycin A. This is followed by enzyme activity assay and gel-based proteomic analysis. The present study also examined whether ROS-induced DLDH oxidative inactivation could be reversed by reducing reagents such as DTT, cysteine, and glutathione. Results show that DLDH could only be inactivated by complex III- but not complex I-derived ROS; and the accompanying loss of activity due to the inactivation could be restored by cysteine and glutathione, indicating that DLDH oxidative inactivation by complex III-derived ROS was a reversible process. Further studies using catalase indicate that it was H2O2 instead of superoxide anion that was responsible for DLDH inactivation. Moreover, using sulfenic acid-specific labeling techniques in conjunction with two-dimensional Western blot analysis, we show that protein sulfenic acid formation (also known as sulfenation) was associated with the loss of DLDH enzymatic activity observed under our experimental conditions. Additionally, such oxidative modification was shown to be associated with preventing DLDH from further inactivation by the thiol-reactive reagent N-ethylmaleimide. Taken together, the present study provides insights into the mechanisms of DLDH oxidative inactivation by mitochondrial H2O2.
