Project description:Interleukin (IL)-2 and IL-21 dichotomously shape CD8+ T cell differentiation. IL-2 drives terminal differentiation, generating cells that are poorly effective against tumors, whereas IL-21 promotes stem cell memory T cells (TSCM) and antitumor responses. Here we investigated the role of metabolic programming in the developmental differences induced by these cytokines. IL-2 promoted effector-like metabolism and aerobic glycolysis, robustly inducing lactate dehydrogenase (LDH) and lactate production, whereas IL-21 maintained a metabolically quiescent state dependent on oxidative phosphorylation. LDH inhibition rewired IL-2–induced effects, promoting pyruvate entry into the tricarboxylic acid cycle and inhibiting terminal effector and exhaustion programs, including mRNA expression of members of the NR4A family of nuclear receptors, as well as Prdm1 and Xbp1. While deletion of Ldha prevented development of cells with antitumor effector function, transient LDH inhibition enhanced the generation of memory cells capable of triggering robust antitumor responses after adoptive transfer. LDH inhibition did not significantly affect IL-21–induced metabolism but caused major transcriptomic changes, including the suppression of IL-21–induced exhaustion markers LAG3, PD1, 2B4, and TIM3. LDH inhibition combined with IL-21 increased the formation of TSCM cells, resulting in more profound antitumor responses and prolonged host survival. These findings indicate a pivotal role for LDH in modulating cytokine-mediated T cell differentiation and underscore the therapeutic potential of transiently inhibiting LDH during adoptive T cell-based immunotherapy, with an unanticipated cooperative antitumor effect of LDH inhibition and IL-21.

Project description:In first-line metastatic colorectal cancer (mCRC), baseline prognostic factors allowing death risk and strategy stratification are lacking. In this setting, a simple biological scoring system have recently been proposed, including LDH and CD138 binary status seric values, identifying one third of patients with worst prognostic.
Intensified-chemotherapy strategies, combining 5-fluorouracile, Oxaliplatin, Irinotecan and Bevacizumab, are beneficial for patients having a bad prognostic, defined by the BRAFV600E mutation, concerning 5-8% of first line mCRC.
For the 30% of patients with LDH-CD138 elevated score, the purpose of CLavSyn phase II study is to compare the PFS of one intensified arm (FOLFOXIRI Bevacizumab) to one standard chemotherapy arm, in order to better discriminate treatment strategies, at metastatic diagnosis.

Project description:Overexpression of heat shock proteins (HSPs), especially the major stress-inducible 72 kDa heat shock protein 70 (Hsp70), in malignant tumor cells is associated with therapeutic resistance. The heightened metabolic demand in tumor cells (Warburg effect) increases lactate dehydrogenase (LDH) activity and the corresponding increase in lactate concentrations promotes malignancy. Herein, we assessed the co-regulation of LDH and the heat shock response and its link to radiation resistance in B16F10 murine melanoma cells and LS174T human colorectal adenocarcinoma cells. Inhibition of LDHA/B by oxamate or GNE-140, significantly diminishes the expression of Hsp90, Hsp70 and Hsp27 in the cytosol. Diminished expression was also observed in LDHA/B double knockout (LDH-/-) cells. An increased production of reactive oxygen species (ROS) induced by a faster growth rate in wild type (WT) vs LDH-/- cells contributes to increased cytosolic HSP levels in WT cells. LDH-/- cells exhibit a lower density of membrane Hsp70 expression than WT cells and a decreased presence of the tumor-specific, Hsp70 anchoring glycosphingolipid Gb3 on the cell surface which could be attributed to an altered lipid metabolism mediated by the LDH knockout. Functionally, a double knockout of LDHA/B results in a generalized reduction in expression of HSPs in tumor cells and significantly increases radiosensitivity which is associated with a G2/M arrest. In summary, we demonstrate that pharmacological targeting of the lactate/pyruvate metabolism breaks radioresistance by impairing the stress response.

Project description:Better biomarkers to predict death early in acute liver failure (ALF) are needed. To that end, we obtained early (study day 1) and later (day 3) serum samples from transplant-free survivors (n=28) and non-survivors (n=30) of acetaminophen (APAP)-induced ALF from the NIH-sponsored Acute Liver Failure Study Group, and from control volunteers (n=10). To identify proteins that increase early in serum during ALF, we selected individuals from this cohort for whom ALT was lower on day 1 than day 3, indicating a time point before the peak of injury (n=10/group). We then performed untargeted proteomics on their day 1 samples. Out of 1,682 quantifiable proteins, 79 were elevated ≥4-fold in ALF patients vs. controls and 23 of those were further elevated ≥4-fold in non-survivors vs. survivors, indicating potential to predict death. Interestingly, the biomarker with best performance was LDH. To confirm the prognostic potential of LDH, we measured activity in all day 1 and 3 samples from all 58 ALF patients. LDH was elevated in the non-survivors vs. survivors on both days. In addition, receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve analyses revealed that LDH alone performed similarly to the model for end-stage liver disease (MELD), while a combination of MELD and LDH outperformed either alone. Finally, Upstream Analysis of our proteomics data indicated activation of LKB1-AMPK signaling in liver regeneration after APAP overdose and we confirmed that in mice. Overall, we conclude LDH can predict death in APAP-induced ALF and that LKB1-AMPK signaling may be a promising therapeutic target to improve survival.

Project description:Although numerous therapeutic strategies have attempted to target aerobic glycolysis to inhibit tumor progression, these approaches have not resulted in effective clinical outcomes. Murine squamous cell carcinoma (SCC) can be initiated by hair follicle stem cells (HFSCs). HFSCs utilize aerobic glycolysis, and the activity of lactate dehydrogenase (Ldh) is essential for HFSC activation. We sought to determine whether Ldh activity in SCC is critical for tumorigenesis or simply a marker of the cell type of origin. Genetic abrogation or induction of Ldh activity in HFSC-mediated tumorigenesis shows no effect on tumorigenesis as measured by number, time to formation, proliferation, volume, epithelial to mesenchymal transition, gene expression, or immune response. Ldha-null tumors show dramatically reduced levels of glycolytic metabolites by metabolomics, and significantly reduced glucose uptake by FDG-PET live animal imaging. These results suggest that squamous cancer cells of origin do not require increased glycolytic activity to generate cancers.

Project description:The “Warburg effect” describes the use of aerobic glycolysis by cancer cells to fuel their growth. Lactate dehydrogenase-A (LDHA) is key to this process and catalyzes the interconversion of pyruvate and lactate. Here we used a proteomic approach to identify LDHA as a binding partner of the tumor suppressor FLCN. Canonically, LDHA is thought to be a substrate-regulated enzyme, however our data show that FLCN uncompetitively inhibits LDHA activity by restricting movement of its active site loop. This inhibition appears to be critical in normal cells, as we show FLCN binds to and tightly regulates LDHA activity in order to preserve metabolic homeostasis. Pathogenic mutations of FLCN are associated with LDHA hyperactivity and kidney tumor formation, suggesting a mechanism for FLCN tumor suppressive function. We have identified a cell-permeant ten amino acid peptide based on the FLCN sequence that enters these tumors and inhibits LDHA ex vivo. In a broader context, renal cell carcinomas experience the Warburg effect and show FLCN dissociation from LDHA. Cells that experience this metabolic shift depend on the hyperactivity of LDHA, as previous work has shown attenuation or inhibition of LDHA leads to programmed cell death. Treating these cells with the FLCN-derived peptide causes apoptosis, strongly suggesting that the glycolytic shift of cancer cells is the result of FLCN inactivation or disassociation from LDHA. Taken together, FLCN-mediated inhibition of LDHA provides a new paradigm for the regulation of glycolysis.

Project description:In many organs, adult stem cells are uniquely poised to serve as cancer cells of origin. In the epidermis, hair follicle stem cells (HFSCs) cycle through stages of quiescence (telogen) and proliferation (anagen) to drive hair growth. Within the hair follicle, HFSCs are capable of initiating squamous cell carcinoma, yet it is unclear how the hair cycle contributes to tumorigenesis. The data presented here show that HFSCs are unable to initiate tumors during the quiescent phase of the hair cycle, indicating that the mechanisms that keep HFSCs dormant are dominant to gain of oncogenes (Ras) or loss of tumor suppressors (p53). Instead, prolonged oncogenic stimuli only exert their effects when HFSC quiescence mechanisms are removed by normal HFSC activation. Furthermore, Pten activity is necessary for quiescence based tumor suppression, since Pten deletion alleviates this stem cell specific ability without affecting proliferation per se. Small RNAs were cloned from Trizol-lysed cells sorted from mouse skin and sequenced with the Illumina HiSeq2000.

Project description:IL-17A driven hyperproliferation is a hallmark of psoriatic keratinocytes. The pathway analysis of shotgun proteomics data from human primary keratinocytes (HPKs) treated with IL-17A highlighted the role of increased levels of lactate dehydrogenase (LDH-A) and pyruvate kinase (PKM). We sought to validate these findings using multiple reaction monitoring (MRM) for LDH-A (6 peptides) and PKM (8 peptides). Moreover, speculating the role of the transcription factor HIF1a in regulation of LDH-A and PKM levels, we also probed these proteins upon inhibiting HIF1a activity with echinomycin in presence of IL-17A.
