Project description:Histone deacetylase (HDAC) inhibition has been shown in previous studies to disrupt the synovial sarcoma oncoprotein complex, resulting in apoptosis. To understand the molecular effects of HDAC inhibition, RNA-Seq transcriptome analysis was undertaken in six human synovial sarcoma cell lines. HDAC inhibition induced pathways of cell cycle arrest, neuronal differentiation and response to oxygen-containing species, effects also observed in other cancers treated with this class of drugs. More specific to synovial sarcoma, polycomb-group targets were reactivated including tumor suppressor CDKN2A, and pro-apoptotic transcriptional patterns were induced. Functional analyses revealed that ROS-mediated FOXO activation and pro-apoptotic factors BIK, BIM and BMF were important to apoptosis induction following HDAC-inhibition in synovial sarcoma

Project description:The aim of the present study was to investigated the difference of Nrf2-regulated genes in livers between normal and heat-stressed chickens. The CUT&Tag and high-throughput sequencing technologies were used in this experiment. Results showed that 13171838- 15417444 clean reads were obtained in this study. These data suggested that there were many Nrf2- regulated genes in the liver of heat-stressed chicken.

Project description:Transcriptional profiling of BL/6 mice harboring a mutant Kras allele, with or without knockouts of Stk11 and/or Keap1, or with expression of an Nfe2l2 transgene, Nrf2Tg. In lung adenocarcinoma (LUAD), stabilization of the transcription factor NRF2 through genomic alterations in KEAP1 and NFE2L2 occurs in roughly a quarter of patients, often in the context of STK11 tumor suppressor loss. In this study, we demonstrate that NRF2 activation in the context of concurrent KRAS mutation and STK11 loss promotes aggressive LUAD tumor behavior in both human and mouse preclinical models. This phenotype is associated with metabolic rewiring and rescue by NRF2 of redox stress, high in STK11 null tumors. Applying a novel, pan-lung cancer, diagnostic NRF2 activation gene expression signature that is independent of frequently co-occurring mutations, we dissect the independent contributions of the three most frequent genetic events in human LUAD (NRF2 activation, STK11 loss and KRAS mutations) on patient prognosis and clinical responses in a dataset of second-line LUAD patients treated with immunotherapy or chemotherapy (OAK trial). Our findings underscore that both individual effects and epistatic relationships among oncogenic and tumor suppressor pathways influence tumor biology, immune contexture and patient clinical outcomes. Our work also highlights the value of lung cancer disease sub-classification based on genetic and expression profiling as part of patient clinical management.

Project description:Chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) stands as the prevailing chronic airway ailment, characterized by chronic bronchitis and emphysema. Current medications fall short in treatment of these diseases, underscoring the urgent need for effective therapy. Prior research indicated immunoproteasome inhibition can alleviate various inflammatory diseases by modulating immune cell functions. However, its therapeutic potential in COPD remains largely unexplored. Here, we observed elevated expression of immunoproteasome subunits LMP2 and LMP7 in bronchoalveolar lavage (BAL) macrophages collected from mouse with LPS/elastase-induced emphysema and M1 polarized macrophages in vitro. Subsequently, intranasal administration of the immunoproteasome-specific inhibitor ONX-0914 significantly mitigated emphysema-associated airway inflammation and improved lung function in mice, by suppressing M1 macrophage polarization. Mechanistically, ONX-0914 activated autophagy, and endoplasmic reticulum (ER) stress was not necessary for ONX- 0914-induced M1 suppression. Intriguingly, ONX-0914 upregulated the autophagy receptor p62/SQSTM1, which proved vital for the inhibitory effect of ONX-0914 on M1 polarization. Additionally, our research identified that the nuclear factor erythroid 2-related factor-2 (NRF2), but not NRF1, was responsible for the induction of p62. Finally, silencing both NRF1 and NRF2 partially counteracted ONX-0914-mediated M1 polarization inhibition. In summary, our findings suggest that targeting the immunoproteasome in macrophages holds promise as a therapeutic strategy for emphysema.

Project description:Histone deacetylase (HDAC) inhibitors are part of a new generation of epigenetic drugs for cancer treatment. It is known that histone acetylation plays a key role in controlling essential chromosome functions, including gene regulation, and this process has been linked with cancer development and progression. Better understanding of molecular mechanisms involving HDAC inhibitors is needed for the design of new targeted drugs, and also to evaluate the effectiveness of current treatments. In this study, an untargeted metabolomics approach was used to identify intracellular metabolite deregulation after treating cancer cell lines with the HDAC inhibitor HC-Toxin. Metabolomics analysis was performed using high resolution mass spectrometry, in combination with univariate and multivariate statistics and pathway analysis. HDAC inhibition showed highly specific metabolic changes in cancer cell lines compared to non-cancerous cells. In particular, N-acetyl-L-cysteine, N-acetylmethionine, and N-acetyl-L-carnitine showed a dose dependent change. Moreover, pathways controlling protein biosynthesis, as well as tryptophan, cysteine and methionine metabolism were significantly altered by HDAC inhibition. This study illustrates that HDAC inhibition has multiple effects on different metabolic pathways and our results can be extrapolated to inform on the molecular transitions in human cells.

Project description:Ixazomib has documented pre-clinical activity in T cell (TCL) and Hodgkin (HL) lymphoma models with transcriptomic analyses predicting synergistic activity in combination with histone deacetylase (HDAC) inhibition. In the present study, we determined the mechanistic basis for synergism with ixazomib in combination with the HDAC inhibitor, belinostat, in HL and TCL cells lines (ixazomib-sensitive and -resistant clones) and primary tumor cells. In ixazomib-treated TCL and HL cells, we observed induction of proteasomal gene expression and NRF2 as a prominent upstream regulator. Ixazomib treatment in TCL and HL cells resulted in transient inhibition followed by full recovery of proteasomal activity within 72 hours. Furthermore, transcriptomic analysis following belinostat treatment resulted in downregulation of both NRF2 and proteasomal gene expression (validated by qPCR) without direct impact on proteasomal activity in Jurkat and L428. In addition, CRISPR/Cas9 mediated knockdown of NRF2 in Jurkat cells resulted in a significant decrease in cell viability with ixazomib compared with untreated control cells. Using transcriptomic and proteosomal activity evaluation of ixazomib, belinostat or ixazomib+belinostat treated cells, we observed that NRF-2, proteasome gene expression and functional recovery were abrogated by the combination. We also confirmed that ixazomib/belinostat resulted in synergistic activity in ixazomib-sensitive and -resistant cell lines and primary cells. Altogether, these results suggest that the synergistic activity of ixazomib and belinostat is mediated via inhibition NRF2-dependent proteasomal recovery and extended proteasomal inhibition culminating in increased cell death. Further investigation is warranted to determine the full biological role for NRF2 as a response modifier in proteasomal targeted therapies.

Project description:The NRF2 transcription factor is a key regulator of the cellular antioxidant response, and pharmacological NRF2 activation is a promising strategy for the prevention of age-related diseases. Here we show, however, that genetic activation of Nrf2 in skin fibroblasts leads to the production of a matrisome, which is similar to aged skin and characterized by reduced synthesis and deposition of selected matrix proteins, including the major skin collagens. Mechanistically, the production of an aging matrisome results from Nrf2-mediated overexpression of microRNAs (miRs), which directly suppress collagen expression independently of myofibroblast differentiation. This is functionally important, as Nrf2 activation in fibroblasts caused structural abnormalities of the dermal ECM and increased the susceptibility to skin tearing, similar to aged skin. Activation of endogenous NRF2 was observed in human skin from elderly individuals in vitro and in vivo. These data implicate a key role for activated NRF2 in controlling age-related molecular and biomechanical skin alterations.
