Effect of DGAT loss on hypoxic tumor cells growing under serum-deprived conditions

ABSTRACT: The metabolic enzyme diglyceride acyltransferase (DGAT) is responsible for the synthesis of triglycerides. Loss of its expression may sensitize cells to conditions of nutrient and oxygen that are commonly present in tumors. This study is designed to identify stress response pathways that may be induced following the shRNA-mediated knockdown of the two genes coding for the DGAT enzymes. In vitro growth conditions lacking serum and oxygen were used to mimic growth conditions commonly found in poorly perfused tumor domains We used a microarray study to identify global transcriptional changes in kidney cancer cells (A498) grown under serum deprived conditions. DGAT was knocked down using doxycycline, which induced DGAT1/2 shRNA expression. The effects of both DGAT loss and oxygen deprivation on the transcriptome were tested.

Effect of DGAT knockdown on gene expression in A498 xenograft tumors

Project description:The metabolic enzyme diglyceride acyltransferase (DGAT) is responsible for the synthesis of triglycerides. Loss of its expression may sensitize cells to conditions of nutrient and oxygen that are commonly present in tumors. This study is designed to identify stress response pathways that may be induced following the shRNA-mediated knockdown of the two genes coding for the DGAT enzymes. We used microarrays to detail the global programme of gene expression following DGAT knockdown in vivo and identified differentially regulated gene sets.

DGAT1 phosphoproteome and long-term proteome

Project description:Enhanced fatty acid (FA) synthesis and uptake underpin the sustained membrane biogenesis and ATP production required for melanoma cell growth and division1-4. However, to thrive, melanoma cells must avoid a potential reduction in cell growth signalling, rampant reactive oxygen species (ROS) generation, and the build-up of toxic lipid species that can accompany excess free FA5. Here, we uncover and address the significance of frequent amplification and up-regulation of the Diacylglycerol O-acyltransferase 1 (DGAT1) gene in melanoma, whose encoded product catalyses the final step of Triacyglyceride (TAG) synthesis. Consistent with the classification of DGAT1 as an oncogene, we found that forced DGAT1 expression in p53 mutant zebrafish melanocytes was sufficient to induce melanoma, and accelerated melanoma progression initiated by co-expression of oncogenic BRAF or NRAS. Regarding DGAT1 function in human melanoma cells, its depletion, or alternatively pharmacological inhibition, suppressed mTOR-S6K signalling and increased levels of acyl carnitine species— FA derivatives that are the limiting substrate for FA oxidation (FAO). In turn, increased FAO induced mitochondrial malfunction, ROS generation, and lipid peroxidation. However, the resultant oxidative stress induced NRF2 and SESTRIN2 (SESN2) expression, which limited the extent of cell death. Conversely, DGAT1 over-expression enhanced mTOR-S6K signalling and cell growth, and protected against ROS, particularly in hypoxic conditions. Together, our data establish DGAT1 as a bona fide oncogene essential in melanoma cells for enabling FA accumulation.

Comparison of hepatic gene expression between short-term calorie restricted wild-type and Dgat1 deficient middle-aged female mice

Project description:Leanness is associated with increased lifespan and is linked to favorable metabolic conditions promoting life extension. We show here that deficiency of the lipid synthesis enzyme acyl CoA:diacylglycerol acyltransferase 1 (DGAT1), which reduces body fat in mice, promotes longevity. Female DGAT1-deficient mice were protected from age-related increases in body fat, non-adipose tissue triglycerides, and markers of inflammation in white adipose tissue. These metabolic changes were accompanied by an increased mean and maximal lifespan of ~25% and ~10%, respectively. The gene expression profile of DGAT1-deficient mice was not highly correlated with calorie restriction of sex and age matched wild-type littermates. Our findings indicate that loss of DGAT1-mediated lipid synthesis results in leanness, protects against age-related metabolic consequences, and thus extends longevity. Liver gene expression profiles between short-term calorie restricted wild-type (WTCR) and Dgat1 deficient (KO) middle-aged (15-16 mo) female mice were compared to determine if calorie restriction and Dgat1 deficiency rely on common regulatory pathways for the promotion of longevity. Both CR and KO were compared to middle-aged wild-type female littermates fed a standard chow diet ad libitum (WTAL).

DGAT1 regulates retinol-dependent regulatory T cell generation and mediates autoimmune encephalomyelitis

Project description:This file contains gene microarray data from FACS purified mouse memory phenotype CD4+ T cells (CD44hiCD45RBloCD25-), which were isolated from lymph node and spinal cord tissues of mice with experimental autoimmune encephalomyelitis (EAE), a widely studied model of human multiple sclerosis (MS). Memory phenotype CD4+ T cells infiltrating the CNS during EAE expressed high levels of mRNA for Dgat1 encoding diacylglycerol-O-acyltransferase-1 (DGAT1). We studied the biology of DGAT1 in EAE models and in assays of T cell differentiation and function.

DGAT1 Inhibitor-Induced Gene Expression in Mouse Skin

Project description:Inhibition of Diacylglycerol O-acyltransferase 1 (DGAT1) has been a mechanism of interest for metabolic disorders. DGAT1 inhibition has been shown to be a key regulator in an array of metabolic pathways; however, based on the DGAT1 KO mouse phenotype the anticipation is that pharmacological inhibition of DGAT1 could potentially lead to skin related adverse effects. One of the aims in developing small molecule DGAT1 inhibitors that target key metabolic tissues is to avoid activity on skin-localized DGAT1 enzyme. In this report we describe a modeling-based approach to identify molecules with physical properties leading to differential exposure distribution. In addition, we demonstrate histological and RNA based biomarker approaches that can detect sebaceous gland atrophy pre-clinically that could be used as potential biomarkers in a clinical setting. Mice were treated with DGAT1 inhibitors for 14 days and dorsal skin biopsies (3-5 mm^2) were taken. RNA was profiled on custom Affymetrix microarrays. The primary goal was to identify robust and consistent biomarkers of DGAT1 inibition in skin.

Investigating NAFLD from RNA-seq data (human cell line Huh7) for samples under three treatments: low fat low sugar, low fat high sugar and high fat high sugar. Wild type samples are compared against DGAT2 knocked out.

Project description:Non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) is a major public health burden and it covers a spectrum of diseases. NAFLD starts with the accumulation of lipid droplets (LDs) within hepatocytes (steatosis). Part of the challenge of studying the mechanistic processes involved in LD accumulation and their implications on the pathogenesis of human NAFLD is due to the available models. Investigating hepatic LDs in humans is challenging and relies on liver biopsies, meaning only cross-sectional data be obtained. On the other hand, LD patterns in in vitro models are poorly defined and rarely reported. Diacylgylcerol acyltransferase (DGAT)2 is one of two enzymes that carry out the final committed step in triacylglycerol (TAG) synthesis. It is unclear whether the enzymes are able to compensate for each other or whether they have distinct roles. It has been hypothesised that DGAT1 primarily utilises exogenous fatty acids and DGAT2 uses de novo-derived fatty acids. Given the important role of this enzyme in TAG synthesis and accumulation, the aims of this study are first to create a cellular model of intrahepatocellular TAG accumulation by manipulating nutritional substrates and to investigate intracellular metabolism in wildtype and DGAT2 knockout cells under these conditions. The experimental workflow for this study is as follows: Huh7 cells (either wild type or knockout) were grown in media containing 11 mM glucose and 2% human serum (HS) for seven days before additional sugars and fatty acids (FAs) were added for a further seven days. All treatments contained 11 mM glucose and 2% HS, either with 200 µM FAs (low fat low sugar; LFLS), 5.5 mM fructose + 200 µM FAs (low fat high sugar; LFHS) or 5.5 mM fructose + 800 µM FAs (high fat high sugar; HFHS). FA metabolism, lipid droplet characteristics and transcriptomic signatures were investigated.

Zebrafish are resilient to the loss of major diacylglycerol acyltransferase enzymes

Project description:In zebrafish, maternally deposited yolk is the source of nutrients for embryogenesis prior to digestive system maturation. Yolk nutrients are processed and secreted to the growing organism by an extra-embryonic tissue, the yolk syncytial layer (YSL). Export of lipid from the YSL occurs through the production of triacylglycerol-rich lipoproteins. Here we report that mutations in the triacylglycerol synthesis enzyme, diacylglycerol acyltransferase-2 (Dgat2), cause yolk sac opacity due to aberrant accumulation of cytoplasmic lipid droplets in the YSL. Though triacylglycerol synthesis continues, it is not properly coupled to lipoprotein production as dgat2 mutants produce fewer, smaller, ApoB-containing lipoproteins. Unlike DGAT2-null mice, which are lipopenic and die soon after birth, zebrafish dgat2 mutants are viable, fertile and exhibit normal mass and adiposity. Residual Dgat activity cannot be explained by the activity of other known Dgat isoenzymes, as dgat1a;dgat1b;dgat2 triple mutants continue to produce YSL lipid droplets and remain viable as adults. Further, the newly identified diacylglycerol acyltransferase, Tmem68, is also not responsible for the residual triacylglycerol synthesis activity. Unlike overexpression of Dgat1a and Dgat1b, monoacylglycerol acyltransferase-3 (Mogat3b) overexpression does not rescue yolk opacity, suggesting it does not possess Dgat activity in the YSL. However, mogat3b;dgat2 double mutants exhibit increased yolk opacity and often have structural alterations of the yolk extension. Quadruple mogat3b;dgat1a;dgat1b;dgat2 mutants either have severely reduced viability and stunted growth, or do not survive past 3 days post fertilization, depending on the dgat2 mutant allele present. Our study highlights the remarkable ability of vertebrates to synthesize triacylglycerol through multiple biosynthetic pathways.
