Project description:Mycobacterial pathogens adapt to environmental stresses such as nutrient deprivation by entering a non-replicative antibiotic-tolerant state of persistence. Using a biochemically-validated data-driven approach, we identified an adaptive metabolic network underlying the mycobacterial response to starvation in M. tuberculosis, M. bovis BCG and M. smegmatis. All three species show a strong Mg+2-dependence for surviving complete nutrient deprivation, accompanied by a broad phenotypic antibiotic resistance. Multivariate analysis of RNA-seq, metabolic phenotyping and biochemical data revealed substantial metabolic remodelling involving a shift to triacylglycerol utilization with adaptation to the consequent ketoacidosis by upregulation of cytochrome P450s. Paradoxically, the ketosis-driven P450 upregulation generated substantial levels of reactive oxygen species (ROS) yet conferred hypersensitivity to killing by hydrogen peroxide-induced inactivation of the P450s that reduced ROS levels. This emergent property of starvation-induced mycobacterial persistence represents a potentially exploitable vulnerability.

Project description:Maternal ketosis during pregnancy can impact fetal development, yet its effects on kidney development are not well understood. This study investigates the impact of maternal ketosis on offspring nephrogenesis using two mouse models: a ketogenic diet and β-hydroxybutyrate supplementation. Pregnant mice were subjected to either intervention from conception until birth. Offspring kidneys were analyzed at birth and in adulthood for nephron number, glomerular density, and renal function. Nephron progenitor cells (NPCs) were isolated from embryonic kidneys and analyzed using RNA sequencing, immunostaining, and quantitative PCR. Both ketosis models resulted in significantly reduced glomerular density at birth and a 25% decrease in nephron number in adult offspring, accompanied by impaired renal function. RNA sequencing revealed over 1,000 differentially expressed genes in the ketogenic diet group and 164 in the β-hydroxybutyrate group, with 67 overlapping genes. Pathway analysis showed downregulation of cell cycle and Myc target pathways, and upregulation of inflammatory pathways in both models. Immunostaining confirmed a 40% reduction in NPC proliferation and decreased c-Myc expression under ketotic conditions. Additionally, ketosis increased TNFα expression and activated the NFκB pathway in NPCs. These findings provide the first evidence linking maternal ketosis to impaired nephrogenesis, demonstrating a negative impact on offspring kidney development by altering NPC proliferation, Myc signaling, and inflammatory responses. This study highlights potential risks associated with ketogenic diets or other ketosis-inducing conditions during pregnancy.

Project description:HDAC and PI3K Antagonists Cooperate to Inhibit Growth of MYC-driven Medulloblastoma
| EGAD00001001899 | EGA
Project description:Medulloblastoma (MB) is the most common malignant brain tumor in children. Patients whose tumors exhibit overexpression or amplification of the MYC oncogene (c-MYC) usually have an extremely poor prognosis, but there are no animal models of this subtype of the disease. Here we show that cerebellar stem cells expressing Myc and mutant Trp53 (p53) generate aggressive tumors following orthotopic transplantation. These tumors consist of large, pleiomorphic cells and resemble human MYC-driven MB at a molecular level. Notably, antagonists of PI3K/mTOR signaling, but not Hedgehog signaling, inhibit growth of tumor cells. These findings suggest that cerebellar stem cells can give rise to MYC-driven MB, and identify a novel model that can be used to test therapies for this devastating disease. To gain insight into the pathways that control growth of MYC-driven MB, we compared gene expression profiles of murine Myc/DNp53 (MP) tumor cells to those of freshly isolated cerebellar stem cells (Prom1+Lin- cells) and of tumors from Ptch1 mutant mice (a model for Sonic Hedgehog-associated MB). RNA was isolated from stem cells and tumor cells using the RNAqueous kit (Ambion). RNA was labeled and hybridized to Affymetrix Mouse Genome 430 2.0 arrays.

There are four groups of samples, three with five biological replicates and the last with four (one outlier was removed). To gain insight into the mechanisms of transformation into tumors, we compared the gene expression profiles of MP tumor cells derived from stem cells (Myc/DNp53-infected Prom1+Lin- cells, designated MP-pl) or progenitors (Myc/DNp53-infected Prom1+ cells, designated MP-p) to gene expression profiles of uninfected stem cells (designated NSC) and profiles from a distinct model of medulloblastoma, the patched mutant mouse (designated ptch1).

Project description:<p>Cancer cells exhibit metabolic plasticity to meet oncogene-driven dependencies while coping with nutrient availability. A better understanding of how systemic metabolism impacts the accumulation of metabolites that reprogram the tumor microenvironment and drive cancer could facilitate development of precision nutrition approaches. Using the Hi-MYC prostate cancer mouse model, we demonstrated that an obesogenic high-fat diet rich in saturated fats accelerates the development of c-MYC-driven invasive prostate cancer through metabolic rewiring. Although c-MYC modulated key metabolic pathways, interaction with an obesogenic high-fat diet was necessary to induce glycolysis and lactate accumulation in tumors. These metabolic changes were associated with augmented infiltration of CD206+ and PD-L1+ tumor-associated macrophages and FOXP3+ regulatory T cells, as well as with the activation of transcriptional programs linked to disease progression and therapy resistance. Lactate itself also stimulated neoangiogenesis and prostate cancer cell migration, which were significantly reduced following treatment with the lactate dehydrogenase inhibitor FX11. In prostate cancer patients, high saturated fat intake and increased body mass index were associated with tumor glycolytic features that promote the infiltration of M2-like tumor-associated macrophages. Finally, upregulation of lactate dehydrogenase, indicative of a lactagenic phenotype, was associated with a shorter time to biochemical recurrence in independent clinical cohorts. This work identifies cooperation between genetic drivers and systemic metabolism to hijack the tumor microenvironment and promote prostate cancer progression through oncometabolite accumulation. This sets the stage for the assessment of lactate as a prognostic biomarker and supports strategies of dietary intervention and direct lactagenesis blockade in treating advanced prostate cancer.</p><p><br></p><p><strong>Murine serum assays</strong> are reported in the current study <strong>MTBLS3316</strong>.</p><p><strong>Murine prostate assays</strong> are reported in <a href='https://www.ebi.ac.uk/metabolights/MTBLS3317' rel='noopener noreferrer' target='_blank'><strong>MTBLS3317</strong></a>.</p>

Project description:To identify proteomic signatures associated with hepatocellular carcinoma driven by MYC overexpression, proteomics was performed on the LAP-tTA/tetO-MYC mouse conditional liver cancer model. Upon MYC activation, mice form liver cancer. Differential proteomics was performed in "MYC on" (MYC-HCC) mouse liver tumors versus mouse control normal liver tissue (where MYC was not overexpressed to drive tumorigenesis -- "MYC off").

Project description:Dietary protein dilution (DPD) promotes metabolic remodelling and health but the precise nutritional components driving this response remain elusive. Here we demonstrate that dietary amino acids (AA) are sufficient and necessary to drive the response to DPD. In particular, the restriction of dietary essential AA (EAA) supply, but not non-EAA, drives the systemic metabolic response to total AA deprivation. Furthermore, systemic deprivation of Thr and Trp, independent of total AA supply, are both adequate and necessary to confer the systemic metabolic response to both diet, and genetic AA-transport loss, driven AA restriction. Thr is also potentially limiting in low-protein diet fed humans, and dietary Thr restriction (DTR) retarded the development of obesity-associated metabolic dysfunction in mice. Liver-derived fibroblast growth factor 21 was required for the metabolic remodelling with DTR. Strikingly, hepatocyte-selective establishment of Thr biosynthetic capacity reversed the systemic response to DTR. Taken together, our studies demonstrate that the restriction of EAA are sufficient and necessary to confer the systemic metabolic effects of DPD.
