Mutant IDH1 confers resistance to energy stress in normal biliary cells through PFKP-induced aerobic glycolysis and AMPK activation.

ABSTRACT: Metabolism is a critical regulator of cell fate determination. Recently, the significance of metabolic reprogramming in environmental adaptation during tumorigenesis has attracted much attention in cancer research. Recurrent mutations in the isocitrate dehydrogenase (IDH) 1 or 2 genes have been identified in several cancers, including intrahepatic cholangiocarcinoma (ICC). Mutant IDHs convert ?-ketoglutarate (?-KG) to 2-hydroxyglutarate (2-HG), which affects the activity of multiple ?-KG-dependent dioxygenases including histone lysine demethylases. Although mutant IDH can be detected even in the early stages of neoplasia, how IDH mutations function as oncogenic drivers remains unclear. In this study, we aimed to address the biological effects of IDH1 mutation using intrahepatic biliary organoids (IBOs). We demonstrated that mutant IDH1 increased the formation of IBOs as well as accelerated glucose metabolism. Gene expression analysis and ChIP results revealed the upregulation of platelet isoform of phosphofructokinase-1 (PFKP), which is a rate-limiting glycolytic enzyme, through the alteration of histone modification. Knockdown of the Pfkp gene alleviated the mutant IDH1-induced increase in IBO formation. Notably, the high expression of PFKP was observed more frequently in patients with IDH-mutant ICC compared to in those with wild-type IDH (p?

Project description:BackgroundTriple-negative breast cancer (TNBC) remains the most challenging subtype of breast cancer and lacks definite treatment targets. Aerobic glycolysis is a hallmark of metabolic reprogramming that contributes to cancer progression. PFKP is a rate-limiting enzyme involved in aerobic glycolysis, which is overexpressed in various types of cancers. However, the underlying mechanisms and roles of the posttranslational modification of PFKP in TNBC remain unknown.MethodsTo explore whether PFKP protein has a potential role in the progression of TNBC, protein levels of PFKP in TNBC and normal breast tissues were examined by CPTAC database analysis, immunohistochemistry staining (IHC), and western blotting assay. Further CCK-8 assay, colony formation assay, EDU incorporation assay, and tumor xenograft experiments were used to detect the effect of PFKP on TNBC progression. To clarify the role of the USP5-PFKP pathway in TNBC progression, ubiquitin assay, co-immunoprecipitation (Co-IP), mass spectrometry-based protein identification, western blotting assay, immunofluorescence microscopy, in vitro binding assay, and glycolysis assay were conducted.ResultsHerein, we showed that PFKP protein was highly expressed in TNBC, which was associated with TNBC progression and poor prognosis of patients. In addition, we demonstrated that PFKP depletion significantly inhibited the TNBC progression in vitro and in vivo. Importantly, we identified that PFKP was a bona fide target of deubiquitinase USP5, and the USP5-mediated deubiquitination and stabilization of PFKP were essential for cancer cell aerobic glycolysis and TNBC progression. Moreover, we found a strong positive correlation between the expression of USP5 and PFKP in TNBC samples. Notably, the high expression of USP5 and PFKP was significantly correlated with poor clinical outcomes.ConclusionsOur study established the USP5-PFKP axis as an important regulatory mechanism of TNBC progression and provided a rationale for future therapeutic interventions in the treatment of TNBC.

Project description:Aerobic glycolysis has been shown to contribute to the abnormal activation of lung fibroblasts with excessive collagen deposition in lipopolysaccharide (LPS)-induced pulmonary fibrosis. Targeting aerobic glycolysis in lung fibroblasts might therefore be considered as a promising therapeutic approach for LPS-induced pulmonary fibrosis. In the present study, the aim was to investigate whether metformin, a widely used agent for treating type 2 diabetes, could alleviate LPS-induced lung fibroblast collagen synthesis and its potential underlying mechanisms. Different concentrations of metformin were used to treat the human lung fibroblast MRC-5 cells after LPS challenge. Indicators of aerobic glycolysis in MRC-5 cells were detected by measuring glucose consumption and lactate levels in culture medium in addition to lactate dehydrogenase activity in cellular lysates. The glucose consumption, lactate levels and the lactate dehydrogenase activity were measured respectively using colorimetric/fluorometric and ELISA kits. The effects of metformin in AMP-activated protein kinase (AMPK) activation was assessed by mitochondrial complex I activity kits. Collagen I, α-smooth muscle actin (α-SMA) and collagen III were used as markers of collagen synthesis, which was measured using western blotting, whereas phosphorylated (p-) AMPK, AMPK, 6-phosphofructo-2-kinase/fructose-2,6-biphosphatase 3 (PFKFB3) and mTOR were detected by western blotting. Metformin significantly decreased mitochondrial complex I activity and upregulated the expression of p-AMPK/AMPK protein in a concentration-dependent manner. Furthermore, the aerobic glycolysis mediated by PFKFB3 and collagen synthesis in LPS-treated MRC-5 cells was gradually inhibited with increasing concentrations of metformin. However, this inhibitory role of metformin on PFKFB3-meditaed aerobic glycolysis and collagen synthesis was prevented by treatments with 3BDO and compound C, which are specific mTOR activator and AMPK inhibitor, respectively. Taken together, the findings from this study suggested that metformin may prevent PFKFB3-associated aerobic glycolysis from enhancing collagen synthesis in lung fibroblasts via regulating the AMPK/mTOR pathway.
