BAP1 links epigenetic regulation of ferroptosis to tumor suppression

ABSTRACT: Compared to the well-established roles of apoptosis in tumor suppression, the roles and regulatory mechanisms of ferroptosis, a non-apoptotic form of cell death, in tumor biology remain much less understood. BRCA1-associated protein 1 (BAP1) encodes a nuclear de-ubiquitinating (DUB) enzyme to reduce histone 2A ubiquitination (H2Aub) on chromatin, and is a tumor suppressor in several human cancers. Here, integrated transcriptomic, epigenomic, and cancer genomic analyses link BAP1 to metabolism-related biological processes, including oxidative stress response, and identify cystine transporter SLC7A11 as a BAP1-repressed target gene with high relevance to BAP1-mediated tumor suppression in human cancers. Functional studies reveal that BAP1, in a DUB-dependent manner, decreases H2Aub occupancy on the SLC7A11 promoter and represses SLC7A11 expression, and that BAP1 inhibits cystine uptake and promotes ferroptosis through repressing SLC7A11 expression. Finally, we show that BAP1 inhibits tumor development partly through SLC7A11, and that cancer-associated BAP1 mutants lose their abilities to repress SLC7A11 and to promote ferroptosis. Together, the results of our study show that BAP1 executes its tumor suppression function at least partly through its regulation of SLC7A11 and ferroptosis, and uncover a previously unappreciated mechanism coupling ferroptosis to tumor suppression.

Bap1 promotes osteoclast function by metabolic reprogramming

Project description:The deubiquitinase activity of Bap1 modifies osteoclast function by metabolic reprogramming. Bap1 deficient osteoclast lineage cells upregulate the cystine transporter, Slc7a11, by enhanced H2Aub occupancy of its promoter. SLC7A11 controls cellular ROS levels and redirects the mitochondrial metabolites away from the TCA cycle, both of which are necessary for osteoclast function.

Super-enhancer-driven MLX mediates redox balance maintanance via SLC7A11 in osteosarcoma

Project description:A systematic analysis of super-enhancers identified MLX as a potential oncogene in osteosarcoma. Knockdown of MLX impaired tumor aggressiveness in vitro and in vivo, suggesting oncogenic properties of MLX. Mechanistically, silencing of MLX downregulates SLC7A11, a key gene encoding glutamate/cystine antiporter, to attenuate the uptake of cystine and interrupt the redox balance, leading to ferroptotic cell death. Pharmacological inhibition of SLC7A11 triggered massive ferroptosis and caused impaired tumor growth, providing a promising approach for osteosarcoma treatment.

Radiotherapy and IFNγ treatment effect on transcriptome in HT1080 cells

Project description:Immune checkpoint blockade is a powerful oncologic treatment modality for a wide variety of human malignancies. Randomized clinical trials are assessing how best to interdigitate this treatment modality with traditional therapies including radiotherapy. A challenge in oncology is to rationally and effectively integrate immunotherapy with traditional modalities including radiotherapy. Here, we demonstrate that radiotherapy induces tumor cell ferroptosis. Ferroptosis agonists augment and ferroptosis antagonists limit radiotherapy efficacy in tumor models. Immunotherapy sensitizes tumors to radiotherapy by promoting tumor cell ferroptosis. Mechanistically, IFN derived from immunotherapy-activated CD8+ T cells and radiotherapy-activated ATM independently, yet synergistically repress SLC7A11, a unit of the glutamate-cystine antiporter xc-, resulting in reduced cystine uptake, enhanced tumor lipid oxidation and ferroptosis, and improved tumor control. Thus, ferroptosis is an unappreciated mechanism and focus for the development of effective combinatorial cancer therapy.

CD8+ T cells regulate tumor ferroptosis during cancer immunotherapy

Project description:CD8+ T cells activated by cancer immunotherapy execute tumor clearance mainly by inducing cell death through perforin-granzyme- and Fas/Fas ligand-pathways. Ferroptosis is a form of cell death that differs from apoptosis and results from iron-dependent lipid peroxide accumulation. Although it was mechanistically illuminated in vitro, emerging evidence has shown that ferroptosis may be implicated in a variety of pathological scenarios. However, the involvement of ferroptosis in T cell immunity and cancer immunotherapy is unknown. Here, we find that immunotherapy-activated CD8+ T cells enhance ferroptosis-specific lipid peroxidation in tumor cells, and in turn, increased ferroptosis contributes to the anti-tumor efficacy of immunotherapy. Mechanistically, IFNg released from CD8+ T cells downregulates expression of SLC3A2 and SLC7A11, two subunits of glutamate-cystine antiporter system xc-, restrains tumor cell cystine uptake, and as a consequence, promotes tumor cell lipid peroxidation and ferroptosis. In preclinical models, depletion of cyst(e)ine by cyst(e)inase in combination with checkpoint blockade synergistically enhances T cell-mediated anti-tumor immunity and induces tumor cell ferroptosis. Thus, T cell-promoted tumor ferroptosis is a novel anti-tumor mechanism. Targeting tumor ferroptosis pathway constitutes a therapeutic approach in combination with checkpoint blockade.

TRIB3 inhibition by palbociclib sensitizes prostate cancer to ferroptosis via SOX2-mediated SLC7A11 downregulation

Project description:Palbociclib is a CDK4/6 inhibitor approved for the treatment of breast cancer by suppressing cell proliferation. However, monotherapy with palbociclib was discouraging in prostate cancer, calling for a mechanism-based effective therapy. In this study, we reported in prostate cancer that palbociclib is a potent sensitizer of ferroptosis, which is worked out by downregulating the expression of TRIB3, a gene highly expressed in prostate cancer. Specifically, TRIB3 knockdown augmented the response of prostate cancer cells to ferroptosis inducers, whereas, TRIB3 overexpression rescued prostate cancer cells from palbociclib-induced ferroptosis. Mechanistically, TRIB3 inhibition by palbociclib resulted in downregulation of SOX2, which subsequently led to compromised expression of SLC7A11, a cystine/glutamate antiporter that counteracts ferroptosis. Functionally, a combined treatment of palbociclib with ferroptosis inducer significantly suppressed prostate cancer growth in a xenograft tumor model. Together, these results uncover an essential role of TRIB3/SOX2/SLC7A11 axis in palbociclib-induced ferroptosis, suggesting palbociclib a promising targeted therapy in combine with ferroptosis induction for the treatment of prostate cancer.

Pervasive Roles of Ubiquitination in Orchestrating the Deubiquitinase Activity and Function of the BAP1/ASXL2 Tumor Suppressor Complex

Project description:The tumor suppressor and deubiquitinase (DUB) BAP1 regulates chromatin-associated processes and is frequently mutated in various malignancies. BAP1 and its drosophila orthologue Calypso assemble DUB complexes with ASXL-1, -2, -3 paralogues and ASX respectively, and these cofactors are required for stimulating their DUB activity. However how the DUB activity of BAP1 is regulated remains largely unknown. Here we show that BAP1 promotes monoubiquitination of ASXLs on the ASXM/DEUBAD domain. ASXL2 monoubiquitination promotes its stability or proteasomal degradation, stimulates BAP1 DUB activity and is required for mammalian cell proliferation. Monoubiquitination of ASXL2 is directly catalyzed by UBE2E family of ubiquitin conjugating enzymes and is regulated by deubiquitination. Monoubiquitination of ASX is regulated by Calypso and is required for drosophila development. We further revealed a switch mechanism that tightly regulate BAP1 function, as a monoubiquitination of BAP1 UCH domain is mutually exclusive with ASXL2 monoubiquitination, thus ensuring highly coordinated DUB-mediated signaling.

mTORC1 couples cyst(e)ine availability with GPX4 protein synthesis and ferroptosis regulation

Project description:Glutathione peroxidase 4 (GPX4) utilizes glutathione (GSH) to detoxify lipid peroxidation and plays an essential role in inhibiting ferroptosis. As a selenoprotein, GPX4 protein synthesis is highly inefficient and energetically costly. How cells coordinate GPX4 synthesis with nutrient availability remains unclear. In this study, integrated proteomic and functional analyses reveal that SLC7A11-mediated cystine uptake promotes not only GSH synthesis but also GPX4 protein synthesis. Mechanistically, cyst(e)ine activates mechanistic/mammalian target of rapamycin complex 1 (mTORC1) and promotes GPX4 protein synthesis at least partly through the mTORC1-4E-BP signaling axis. Pharmacologic inhibition of mTORC1 decreases GPX4 protein levels, sensitizes cancer cells to ferroptosis, and synergizes with ferroptosis inducers (FINs) to suppress patient-derived xenograft tumor growth in vivo. Together, our results reveal a hitherto unrecognized regulatory mechanism to coordinate GPX4 protein synthesis with cyst(e)ine availability and suggest to use the combination of mTORC1 inhibitors and FINs in cancer treatment.

Lysosomal cystine governs ferroptosis sensitivity in cancer via nuclear cysteine response

Project description:The amino acid cysteine and its oxidized dimeric form cystine are commonly believed to be synonymous in metabolic functions. Cyst(e)ine depletion not only induces amino acid response, but also triggers ferroptosis, a non-apoptotic cell death. Here we report that, unlike general amino acid starvation, cyst(e)ine deprivation triggers ATF4 induction at the transcriptional level. Unexpectedly, it is the shortage of lysosomal cystine, but not the cytosolic cysteine, that elicits the adaptative ATF4 response. The lysosome-nucleus signaling pathway involves the aryl hydrocarbon receptor (AhR) that senses lysosomal cystine via the kynurenine pathway. A blockade of lysosomal cystine efflux attenuates ATF4 induction and sensitizes ferroptosis. To potentiate ferroptosis in cancer, we develop a synthetic mRNA reagent CysRx that converts cytosolic cysteine to lysosomal cystine. CysRx maximizes cancer cell ferroptosis and effectively suppresses tumor growth in vivo. Thus, intracellular nutrient reprogramming has the potential to induce selective ferroptosis in cancer without systematic perturbation.

Itaconate transporter SLC13A3 impairs tumor immunity via endowing ferroptosis resistance [RNA-Seq]

Project description:Immune checkpoint blockade (ICB) triggers tumor ferroptosis. However, most patients are unresponsive to ICB. Tumors might evade ferroptosis in the tumor microenvironment (TME). Here, we discovered SLC13A3 is an itaconate transporter in tumor cells and endows tumor ferroptosis resistance, diminishing tumor immunity and ICB efficacy. Mechanistically, tumor cells uptake itaconate via SLC13A3 from tumor-associated macrophages (TAMs), thereby activating the NRF2-SLC7A11 pathway and escaping from immune-mediated ferroptosis. Structural modeling and molecular docking analysis identified a functional inhibitor for SLC13A3 (SLC13A3i). Deletion of ACOD1 (an essential enzyme for itaconate synthesis) in macrophages, genetic ablation of SLC13A3 in tumors, or treatment with SLC13A3i sensitized tumors to ferroptosis, curbed tumor progression, and bolstered ICB effectiveness. Thus, we identify the interplay between tumors and TAMs via the SLC13A3-itaconate-NRF2-SLC7A11 axis as a previously unknown immune ferroptosis resistant mechanism in the TME and SLC13A3 as a promising immunometabolic target and disease indication for treating SLC13A3+cancer.
