A role for p53 in the adaptation to glutamine starvation through the expression of Slc1a3

ABSTRACT: Numerous mechanisms to support cells under conditions of transient nutrient starvation have been described. The tumor suppressor protein p53 can contribute to the adaptation of cells to metabolic stress through various mechanisms that may help cancer cell survival in nutrient limiting conditions. We show here that p53 helps cancer cells to survive glutamine starvation by promoting the expression of SLC1A3, an aspartate/glutamate transporter that allows the utilization of aspartate to support cells in the absence of extracellular glutamine. Under glutamine deprivation, SLC1A3 expression maintains electron transport chain and tricarboxylic acid cycle activity, promoting de novo glutamate, glutamine and nucleotide synthesis to rescue cell viability. Tumor cells with high levels of SLC1A3 expression are resistant to glutamine starvation and SLC1A3 depletion retards the growth of these cells in vitro and in vivo, suggesting a therapeutic potential for SLC1A3 inhibition.

The unique catalytic properties of PSAT1 mediate metabolic adaptation to glutamine blockade

Project description:Cultured cancer cells frequently rely on the consumption of glutamine and its subsequent hydrolysis to glutamate by the mitochondrial enzyme glutaminase (GLS). However, this metabolic addiction can be lost in the tumor microenvironment (TME), rendering GLS inhibitors ineffective in the clinic. Here, we show that seemingly glutamine-addicted breast cancer cells ultimately adapt to chronic glutamine starvation, or targeted GLS inhibition, via the AMPK-mediated upregulation of the serine synthesis pathway (SSP). In this context, the key product of the SSP is not serine itself, but a-ketoglutarate (a-KG). Mechanistically, we find that the phylogenetically distinct transaminase phosphoserine aminotransferase 1 (PSAT1) has a unique capacity for sustained a-KG production when glutamate is severely depleted. Breast cancer cells with intrinsic or acquired resistance to glutamine starvation or GLS inhibition are highly dependent on SSP-supplied a-KG. Accordingly, pharmacological disruption of the SSP prevents adaptation to glutamine blockade, yielding a potent drug synergism that abolishes breast tumor growth in vivo. These findings highlight how metabolic redundancy can be context dependent, with the catalytic properties of different metabolic enzymes that act on the same substrate determining which pathways can support tumor growth in a particular nutrient environment. This in turn has practical consequences for therapies targeting cancer metabolism.

Phosphoethanolamine Accumulation Protects Cancer Cells under Glutamine Starvation through Downregulation of PCYT2

Project description:The conditions of the tumor microenvironment, such as nutrient starvation, play critical roles in cancer progression. However, the role of glutamine deprivation in cancer progression is not studied as extensively as that of hypoxia. Here, we show that glutamine starvation triggered down-regulation of PCYT2 by stimulating accumulation of PEtn. Interestingly, glutamine upregulated series of glutamine-responsive genes, not only PCYT2. Furthermore, glutamine-responsive genes were associated with overall survival of cancer patients. Thus, our findings show that glutamine responsive genes such as PCYT2 are key for progression of cancer cells, partly protecting cancer cells to glutamine starvation.

p53 promotes cancer cell adaptation to glutamine deprivation by upregulating Slc7a3 to increase arginine uptake

Project description:Cancer cells heavily depend on the amino acid, glutamine, to meet the demands associated with growth and proliferation. Due to its rapid consumption, cancer cells frequently undergo glutamine starvation in vivo. We and others have shown that p53 is a critical regulator in metabolic stress resistance. To better understand the molecular mechanisms by which p53 activation promotes cancer cell adaptation to glutamine deprivation, we identified p53-dependent genes that are induced upon glutamine deprivation using RNA-seq analysis. We show that Slc7a3, an arginine transporter, is significantly induced by p53. We show the concomitant rise in intracellular arginine levels following glutamine deprivation is dependent on p53. The influx of arginine has minimal effect on known metabolic pathways upon glutamine deprivation. Instead, we found arginine serves as an effector for mTORC1 activation to promote in vitro and in vivo cell growth in response to glutamine starvation. Therefore, we identify a novel p53-inducible gene that contributes to the metabolic stress response.

Genome-wide CRISPR-Cas9 screen identifies SLC1A3 as a key contributor to L-asparaginase Resistance in Solid tumors

Project description:L-asparaginase (ASNase) has been incorporated in the treatment of acute lymphoblastic leukemia for decades. However, intolerable toxicity due to increasing ASNase dosage has been observed in clinical trials with solid tumors. Here, we performed a genome-wide CRISPR-Cas9 functional screen in ASNase-resistant PC3 prostate cancer cells and identified SLC1A3, an aspartate transporter highly expressed in brain tissues but also in several tumor types. Interestingly, combined ASNase treatment and SLC1A3 inhibition caused cell cycle arrest and metabolic alterations in the urea cycle, nucleotide synthesis, energy production by both TCA cycle and glycolysis, and impaired lipid metabolism. Additionally, the introduction of SLC1A3 into SLC1A3-negative mouse and human breast cancer cells increased tumor and metastasis burden, and promoted ASNase tolerance in vitro and in vivo. These findings uncover an important role of SLC1A3 in ASNase resistance and indicated limited aspartate uptake for enhancement of ASNase efficacy with solid tumors.

L-Glutamine metabolism and its regulation in C. glutamicum

Project description:Corynebacterium glutamicum, a gram-positive soil bacterium used for the industrial production of amino acids such as L-glutamate and L-lysine, is able to use a number of different nitrogen sources, such as ammonium, urea, or creatinine. In this communication, we show that L-glutamine serves as an excellent nitrogen source for C. glutamicum and allows similar growth rates in glucose minimal medium as ammonium. A transcriptome comparison revealed a strong induction of the nitrogen starvation response when glutamine was used as nitrogen source. Subsequent growth experiments with a variety of mutants defective in nitrogen metabolism showed that glutamate synthase is crucial for glutamine utilization, while a putative glutaminase is dispensable under the experimental conditions used. The fact that the glutamate synthase encoding gltBD operon is under strict nitrogen control explains the necessity for induction of the nitrogen starvation response. The paradox situation that the nitrogen starvation response is induced although intracellular L-glutamine levels are high has implications on nitrogen sensing. In contrast to other gram-positive and gram-negative bacteria such as Bacillus subtilis, Salmonella typhimurium, and Klebsiella pneumoniae, a drop in glutamine concentration obviously does not serve as a nitrogen starvation signal in C. glutamicum. Three biological replicates were performed. To analyse how L-glutamine influences global gene expression when used as sole nitrogen source instead of ammonium, DNA microarray analyses were performed. For this purpose RNA was isolated from exponentially growing cells cultivated in CgXII medium containing glucose as carbon source and either L-glutamine or ammonium sulphate as nitrogen source.

Gain-of-function genetic screens in human cells identify SLC transporters overcoming environmental nutrient restrictions

Project description:<p>Solute carrier (SLC) transporters control fluxes of nutrients and metabolites across membranes and thereby represent a critical interface between the microenvironment and cellular and subcellular metabolism. Because of substantial functional overlap, the interplay and relative contributions of SLCs in response to environmental stresses remain poorly elucidated. To infer functional relationships between SLCs and metabolites, we developed a strategy to identify SLCs able to sustain cell viability and proliferation under growth-limiting concentrations of essential nutrients. One-by-one depletion of 13 amino acids required for cell proliferation enabled gain-of-function genetic screens using a SLC-focused CRISPR/Cas9–based transcriptional activation approach to uncover transporters relieving cells from growth-limiting metabolic bottlenecks. Among the transporters identified, we characterized the cationic amino acid transporter SLC7A3 as a gene that, when up-regulated, overcame low availability of arginine and lysine by increasing their uptake, whereas SLC7A5 was able to sustain cellular fitness upon deprivation of several neutral amino acids. Moreover, we identified metabolic compensation mediated by the glutamate/aspartate transporters SLC1A2 and SLC1A3 under glutamine-limiting conditions. Overall, this gain-of-function approach using human cells uncovered functional transporter-nutrient relationships and revealed that transport activity up-regulation may be sufficient to overcome environmental metabolic restrictions.</p>

Complementary omics strategies to dissect p53 signaling networks under nutrient stress

Project description:Signaling trough cytoplasmic or nuclear action of p53 is a major response mechanism to cellular stresses. While p53 protein levels have been shown to increase upon nutrient stresses such as starvation, the exact signaling cascade in this context remains elusive. Here, we show in a human hepatoma cell line that nutrient withdrawal leads to robust nuclear p53 stabilization and utilize various complementary omics approaches to dissect upstream and downstream networks in the response to starvation. Using the affinity purification mass spectrometry (MS) method BioID, we determine the cytoplasmic p53 interaction network within the immediate-early starvation response and show that p53 is dissociated from several metabolic enzymes and the kinase PAK2. Direct binding of p53 DNA-binding domain and N-terminal PAK2 was confirmed with nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) interaction studies. Furthermore, rapid immunoprecipitation MS of endogenous proteins (RIME) uncovered the nuclear interactome under prolonged starvation, where we confirmed the novel p53 interactors SORBS1, involved in insulin signaling, and UGP2, a key enzyme of glycogen synthesis. Finally, transcriptomics after p53 re-expression on a CRISPR/Cas9 knock out background revealed a distinct starvation-specific transcriptome response and suggested novel nutrient-dependent p53 target genes. Together, our complementary approaches delineate several nodes of the p53 signaling cascade in response to starvation, shedding new light on the mechanisms of p53 as a nutrient stress sensor and regulator of specific transcriptional output. Given the central role of p53 in cancer biology and the beneficial effects of fasting in cancer treatment, the identified interaction partners and networks could pinpoint novel pharmacologic targets to fine-tune p53 activity.

Directed differentiation to nephron progenitor cells in the presence and absence of glutamine [RNA Seq 2]

Project description:Metabolic pathways driving differentiation into nephron progenitor cells (NPCs) and renal organoids from the pluripotency stage remain poorly understood. In this study, we systematically performed comprehensive metabolite and transcriptome profiling of human pluripotent stem cells (hPSCs) during differentiation into NPCs and further into multicellular organoids. We found activation of distinct metabolic pathways during early-stage progression from hPSCs to NPCs; however, later-stage differentiation from NPCs to organoids, and the intervening developmental stages between them, largely shared similar metabolic profiles. Among the pathways changing in early differentiation, the alanine-aspartate-glutamate and glutamine pathways were found to be significantly altered by both an enrichment and by pathway impact analysis. Moreover, hPSCs survived glutamine deprivation during in vitro differentiation, and NPCs were successfully generated both in the absence and presence of glutamine and glutamate. Surprisingly, glutamine deprivation resulted in enhanced maturation, by accelerating PAX8 expression, and enriching for podocytes as detected through single cell RNA-Seq analysis. Taken together, these findings highlight a critical regulatory role of glutamine metabolism in the derivation of nephron progenitor cells and renal organoids and identify a controlling metabolic pathway of early renal differentiation.
