Intracellular IL-32 regulates mitochondrial metabolism, proliferation, and differentiation of malignant plasma cells.

ABSTRACT: Interleukin-32 (IL-32) is a nonclassical cytokine expressed in cancers, inflammatory diseases, and infections. Its expression is regulated by two different oxygen sensing systems; HIF1α and cysteamine dioxygenase (ADO), indicating that IL-32 may be involved in the response to hypoxia. We here demonstrate that endogenously expressed, intracellular IL-32 interacts with components of the mitochondrial respiratory chain and promotes oxidative phosphorylation. Knocking out IL-32 in three myeloma cell lines reduced cell survival and proliferation in vitro and in vivo. High-throughput transcriptomic and MS-metabolomic profiling of IL-32 KO cells revealed that cells depleted of IL-32 had perturbations in metabolic pathways, with accumulation of lipids, pyruvate precursors, and citrate. IL-32 was expressed in a subgroup of myeloma patients with inferior survival, and primary myeloma cells expressing IL-32 had a gene signature associated with immaturity, proliferation, and oxidative phosphorylation. In conclusion, we demonstrate a previously unrecognized role of IL-32 in the regulation of plasma cell metabolism.

Project description:Optimal mitochondrial function determined by mitochondrial dynamics, morphology and activity is coupled to stem cell differentiation and organism development. However, the mechanisms of interaction of signaling pathways with mitochondrial morphology and activity are not completely understood. We assessed the role of mitochondrial fusion and fission in the differentiation of neural stem cells called neuroblasts (NB) in the Drosophila brain. Depleting mitochondrial inner membrane fusion protein Opa1 and mitochondrial outer membrane fusion protein Marf in the Drosophila type II NB lineage led to mitochondrial fragmentation and loss of activity. Opa1 and Marf depletion did not affect the numbers of type II NBs but led to a decrease in differentiated progeny. Opa1 depletion decreased the mature intermediate precursor cells (INPs), ganglion mother cells (GMCs) and neurons by the decreased proliferation of the type II NBs and mature INPs. Marf depletion led to a decrease in neurons by a depletion of proliferation of GMCs. On the contrary, loss of mitochondrial fission protein Drp1 led to mitochondrial clustering but did not show defects in differentiation. Depletion of Drp1 along with Opa1 or Marf also led to mitochondrial clustering and suppressed the loss of mitochondrial activity and defects in proliferation and differentiation in the type II NB lineage. Opa1 depletion led to decreased Notch signaling in the type II NB lineage. Further, Notch signaling depletion via the canonical pathway showed mitochondrial fragmentation and loss of differentiation similar to Opa1 depletion. An increase in Notch signaling showed mitochondrial clustering similar to Drp1 mutants. Further, Drp1 mutant overexpression combined with Notch depletion showed mitochondrial fusion and drove differentiation in the lineage, suggesting that fused mitochondria can influence differentiation in the type II NB lineage. Our results implicate crosstalk between proliferation, Notch signaling, mitochondrial activity and fusion as an essential step in differentiation in the type II NB lineage.
