Pharmacological inhibition of lipid import and transport proteins in ovarian cancer

ABSTRACT: Ovarian cancer (OC) is still the most fatal gynecological cancer due to late diagnosis when peritoneal metastasis has already occurred. OC progression requires lipid nutrients that are either synthesized endogenously in the cancer cells or imported from the surrounding host tissue. Accordingly, blockade of lipid synthesis has been shown to be a powerful strategy against OC. However, direct evidence of the role of lipid import and transport for OC growth is still largely missing. Therefore, we exposed OC cells to inhibitors of lipid uptake and transport proteins, which are typically overexpressed in OC. Our data reveal that pharmacological inhibition of these lipid handling proteins caused drug-specific, dose- and time-dependent decline of lipid-uptake, which was associated with cell growth reduction, cell cycle arrest and apoptosis indicating that OC cells are exquisitely sensitive to lipid deficiency. This dependency provides the rationale for the development of novel lipid-antimetabolic strategies against OC.

OCaMIR a non-invasive early diagnostic test for ovarian cancer: A multi-cohort retrospective and prospective analysis

Project description:Owing to the lack of effective screening tools and early detection biomarkers, ovarian cancer (OC) still remains as a deadly disease with highest mortality among other gynecological cancers. So far there have been no attempts to discover biomarkers using early stage OC patients. MicroRNAs (miRNAs) have been recognized as great tool to develop non-invasive biomarkers in various cancers including ovarian cancer.

Resistance of Ovarian Cancer Cells to Platinum Requires Exogenous Cholesterol, Scavenger Receptor Class B Type 1, and Glutathione Peroxidase 4

Project description:Essentially, all patients diagnosed with ovarian cancer (OC) are treated with platinum (Pt); however, Pt resistance (Pt-R) rapidly develops. We show OC cells resistant to Pt increase intracellular cholesterol by increasing expression of the high-density lipoprotein (HDL) receptor, scavenger receptor class B type 1 (SR-B1). Expression of SR-B1 was associated with chemoresistance in OC cells and tumors. SR-B1 blockade using synthetic cholesterol-poor HDL-like nanoparticles (HDL NPs) diminished cholesterol uptake leading to cell death of Pt-R OC cells in vitro and suppressed Pt-R OC tumor growth in vivo. Reduced cholesterol accumulation in Pt-R OC cells induced lipid oxidative stress through reduction of glutathione peroxidase 4 (GPx4) expression leading to ferroptosis. Reduction of GPx4 expression in OC cells re-sensitized Pt-R cells to Pt by reducing cholesterol uptake and enhancing the accumulation of lipid reactive oxygen species (L-ROS). Mechanistically, GPx4 knockdown in OC cells was associated with reduced expression of the histone acetyltransferase EP300, leading to reduced H3K27 acetylation around the SREBP2 promoter suppressing its expression. As SREBP2 regulates SR-B1 transcription, these data demonstrate chemoresistance and cancer cell survival under high ROS burden obligates high GPx4 and SR-B1 expression through SREBP2. Targeting SR-B1 to modulate cholesterol uptake inhibits this axis and causes ferroptosis in vitro and in vivo in Pt-R OC.

Profiling the metabolome of uterine fluid for early detection of ovarian cancer

Project description:<p>Ovarian cancer (OC) causes high mortality in women because of ineffective biomarkers for early diagnosis. Here, we perform metabolomics analysis on an initial training set of uterine fluid from 96 gynecological patients. A seven-metabolite-marker panel consisting of vanillylmandelic acid, norepinephrine, phenylalanine, beta-alanine, tyrosine, 12-S-hydroxy-5,8,10-heptadecatrienoic acid and crithmumdiol is established for detecting early-stage OC. The panel is further validated in an independent sample set from 123 patients, discriminating early OC from controls with an area under the curve (AUC) of 0.957 (95% confidence interval [CI], 0.894-1.000). Interestingly, we find elevated norepinephrine and decreased vanillylmandelic acid in most OC cells, resulting from excess 4-hydroxyestradiol that antagonizes the catabolism of norepinephrine by catechol-O-methyltransferase. Moreover, exposure to 4-hydroxyestradiol induces cellular DNA damage and genomic instability that could lead to tumorigenesis. Thus, this study not only reveals metabolic features in uterine fluid of gynecological patients but also establishes a noninvasive approach for the early diagnosis of OC. </p>

OC-MS/MS - HSP60-regulated Mitochondrial Proteostasis and Protein Translation Promote Tumor Growth of Ovarian Cancer

Project description:Ovarian cancer (OC) is the most lethal gynecological carcinoma because of the lack of early diagnostic markers and effective drug targets. Discovery of new therapeutic targets in OC to improve the treatment outcome is urgently needed. Patients with recurrent EOC after initial therapy have few treatment options that greatly compromises their quality of life and life expectancy. Discovery of new therapeutic targets in EOC to improve the treatment outcome is urgently needed. Proteomic analysis is one of the approaches to identify therapeutic targets in OC.

Profiling of serum N-glycome in ovarian cancer by MALDI-MS

Project description:Ovarian cancer (OC) is the one of the most common gynecological tumors with high morbidity and mortality. Alterations in serum N-glycosylation have been observed in many diseases, and specific N-glycans of serum could be used for disease diagnosis or prognosis. However, the association between serum N-glycome profiles and OC progression remains unclear. Herein, high-throughput mass spectrometry was applied to characterize serum N-glycome profile in individuals with healthy controls, benign neoplasm and different stages of OC patients. It was observed that high-mannosylation, neutral bisection and agalactosylation of serum glycoproteins were uniformly increased in the initiation and development of OC, but sialylation was substantially changed on an opposite trend. Additionally, agalactosylation, high-mannosylation and sialylation gained at least moderately accurate merit for diagnosis of both OC and benign neoplasm. Notably, serum N-glycome profile could accurately discriminate OC patients from benign cohorts, with a comparable or even higher diagnostic score compared with CA125 and HE4. Furthermore, bioinformatics verified the differential expression of glycogens in OC progression. Significantly, strong correlations were found between CA 125 and high-mannosylation, galactosylation and sialylation. These findings demonstrated the great potential of serum N-glycome for OC diagnosis and precancerous lesion prediction, paving a new way for OC screening and monitoring.

VEGF-B Signaling Impairs Endothelial Glucose Transcytosis via an LDLR-dependent Decrease in Membrane Cholesterol Loading [HBMEC]

Project description:Regulation of endothelial nutrient transport is poorly understood. Vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF)-B signaling in endothelial cells promotes uptake and transcytosis of fatty acids (FA) from the bloodstream to the underlying tissue, advancing pathological lipid accumulation and lipotoxicity in diabetic complications. Here we demonstrate a VEGF-B dependent obstruction of endothelial glucose transport attributed to plasma membrane lipid alterations affecting glucose transporter 1 function, which was independent of FA uptake. Specifically, VEGF-B signaling impaired recycling of low-density lipoprotein receptor to the plasma membrane, leading to reduced cholesterol uptake and membrane cholesterol loading, decreasing endothelial glucose uptake capacity. Inhibiting VEGF-B in vivo was accordingly linked to reconstitution of membrane cholesterol and induction of glucose uptake, of particular relevance for conditions inferring insulin resistance and diabetic complications. In summary, our study reveals a novel mechanism of action for VEGF-B in endothelial nutrient uptake and highlights the impact of membrane cholesterol for the regulation of endothelial glucose transport.

Essential role of PLD2 in hypoxia-induced stemness and therapy resistance in ovarian tumors

Project description:Ovarian cancer (OC) is the most lethal gynecological cancer due to its late diagnosis and, importantly, its high rate of chemoresistance. Hypoxia in solid tumors is an important source of chemoresistance that can determine poor patient prognosis. Such chemoresistance relies on the presence of cancer stem cells (CSCs), and hypoxia promotes their generation through transcriptional activation by HIF transcription factors. We use OC cell lines, xenograft models, OC patient samples, transcriptional databases, iPSCs and ATAC-seq. We show here that hypoxia induces the formation of ovarian CSCs through transcriptional activation of the PLD2 gene encoding phospholipase D2. HIF-1 activates PLD2 transcription through hypoxia response elements located within PLD2 promoter and an intronic enhancer. PLD2 overexpression leads to similar effects than hypoxia, increasing CSC-like features, stemness gene expression and enhancing cell reprogramming in OC cells, as well as chromatin accessibility around stemness genes detected by ATAC-seq. Conversely, PLD2 depletion in hypoxia partially suppresses these effects, indicating that PLD2 is a major determinant of hypoxia-induced CSC generation in OC. Indeed, PLD2 expression is high in OC patients leading to poor survival and a transcriptional switch in the genes related to the response to hypoxia and stemness. Finally, we demonstrate that PLD2 overexpression provokes resistance to platinum-based chemotherapy and that combination of cisplatin with pharmacological inhibition of PLD2 suppresses such resistance. Altogether, our work highlights the importance of the HIF-1-PLD2 axis for CSC generation and chemoresistance in OC and proposes an alternative treatment for patients with high PLD2 expression.

Single-cell Analysis of a High-grade Serous Ovarian Cancer Cell Line Reveals Transcriptomic Changes and Cell Subpopulations Sensitive to Epigenetic Combination Treatment

Project description:Ovarian cancer (OC) is a lethal gynecological malignancy with a five-year survival rate of only 46%. Development of resistance to platinum-based chemotherapy is a common cause of high mortality rates among OC patients. Tumor and transcriptomic heterogeneity are drivers of platinum resistance in OC. Platinum-based chemotherapy enriches for ovarian cancer stem cells (OCSCs) that are chemoresistant and contribute to disease recurrence and relapse. Studies examining the effect of different treatments on subpopulations of HGSOC cell lines are limited. Having previously demonstrated that combined treatment with an enhancer of zeste homolog 2 inhibitor (EZH2i) and a RAC1 GTPase inhibitor (RAC1i) inhibited survival of OCSCs, we investigated EZH2i and RAC1i combination effects on HGSOC heterogeneity using single cell RNA sequencing. We demonstrated that RAC1i reduced expression of stemness and early secretory marker genes, increased expression of an intermediate secretory marker gene and induced inflammatory gene expression. Importantly, RAC1i alone and in combination with EZH2i significantly reduced oxidative phosphorylation and upregulated Sirtuin signaling pathways. Altogether, we demonstrated that combining a RAC1i with an EZH2i promoted differentiation of subpopulations of HGSOC cells, supporting the future development of epigenetic drug combinations as therapeutic approaches in OC.
