A PIKfyve Modulator Combined with an Integrated Stress Response Inhibitor to treat Lysosomal Storage Diseases

ABSTRACT: Lysosomal degradation pathways coordinate the clearance of superfluous and damaged cellular components. Compromised lysosomal degradation is a hallmark of many degenerative diseases, including lysosomal storage diseases, which are caused by loss-of-function mutations within both alleles of a lysosomal hydrolase, leading to lysosomal substrate accumulation. Gaucher’s disease, characterized by <15% of normal glucocerebrosidase function, is the most common lysosomal storage disease and is a prominent risk factor for developing Parkinson’s disease. Here, we show that either of two structurally distinct small molecules that modulate PIKfyve activity, discovered from a high-throughput cellular lipid droplet clearance screen, can improve glucocerebrosidase function in Gaucher patient–derived fibroblasts through an MiT/TFE transcription factor that promotes lysosomal gene translation. An ISR antagonist used in combination with a PIKfyve modulator further improves cellular glucocerebrosidase activity, likely because integrated stress response (ISR) signaling appears to also be slightly activated by treatment by either small molecule at the higher doses employed, This strategy of combining a PIKfyve modulator with an integrated stress response inhibitor improves mutant lysosomal hydrolase function in cellular models of additional lysosomal storage diseases.

Proteomics analysis of lysosomes and whole cell lysates from H4 cellsLysosome, H4, glucocerebrosidase

Project description:Studies have shown that the majority of Parkinson's disease patients have at least one putative damaging variant in a lysosomal storage disorder gene (60%) and in about 10% of sporadic PD subjects, the disease is associated with mutations in GBA1, a gene coding for glucocerebrosidase, a lysosomal hydrolase. However, the precise cellular and lysosome-specific alterations upon loss of glucocerebrosidase are not established. The aim of this study is to characterize the proteome-wide changes at the cellular and lysosomal level in H4 cells upon loss of the GBA gene. Moreover, we tested if reinstating glucocerebrosidase activity by treating cells with our in-house GCase-BS (glucocerebrosidase-brain shuttle) can revert these changes, both at the cellular and lysosomal level.

Effect of SPNS1 on lipid metabolism in mice

Project description:Accumulation of sphingolipids, especially sphingosines, in the lysosomes is attributed to the pathogenesis of several lysosomal storage diseases. In searching for a lysosomal protein that mediates the release of sphingosines, we identified SPNS1 which shares the highest homology to SPNS2, a sphingosine-1-phosphate (S1P) transporter. We generated knockout cells and mice for Spns1 and employed lipidomics and metabolomics to identify SPNS1 ligands. We found that knockouts of Spns1 resulted in the accumulation of sphingolipids including sphingosines in embryonic brains and cell lines. These results suggest that deficiency of SPNS1 affects the clearance of sphingolipids in lysosomes. Biochemical assays demonstrated that sphingosines released from lysosomes required SPNS1. Postnatal deletion of Spns1 in mice causes lipid accumulation in the lysosomes and pathological conditions that are reminiscent of sphingolipid lysosomal storage diseases. These results reveal a critical molecular role of SPNS1 as a transporter for lysosphingolipids and lysoglyerophospholipids from the lysosomes and link its physiological roles with lysosomal storage diseases.

Identification of PIKfyve kinase as a target in multiple myeloma

Project description:The cellular cytotoxicity of APY0201, a PIKfyve inhibitor, against multiple myeloma was initially identified in an unbiased in vitro chemical library screen. Activity was confirmed in all 25 cell lines tested and 40% of 100 ex vivo patient derived primary samples, and positively correlated with samples harboring trisomies and inversely related to t(11;14). The broad anti- multiple myeloma activity of PIKfyve inhibitors was further demonstrated in confirmatory screens and showed the superior potency of APY0201 when compared to the PIKfyve inhibitors YM201636 and apilimod, with a mid-point EC50 at nanomolar concentrations respectively in 65%, 40%, and 5% of the tested cell lines. An up-regulation of genes in the lysosomal pathway and increased cellular vacuolization was observed in vitro in cell lines following APY0201 treatment however this cellular response did not correlate well with responsiveness. We confirm that PIKfyve inhibition is associated with activation of the transcription factor EB, a master regulator of lysosomal biogenesis and autophagy. Furthermore, we established an assay measuring autophagy as a predictive marker of APY0201 sensitivity. Overall, these findings suggest promising activity of PIKfyve inhibitors secondary to disruption of autophagy in multiple myeloma and a strategy to enrich for likely responders.

Transcriptomic profile of skeletal muscle in wild-type, GAA knock-out, and AAV treated GAA knock-out mice to understand Pompe disease mechanisms and assess therapeutic efficacy

Project description:Pompe disease (glycogen storage disease type II, or acid maltase deficiency) is an autosomal-recessive disorder of metabolism caused by mutations in the lysosomal hydrolase, acid alpha-glucosidase gene (GAA), resulting in progressive muscle atrophy. Gene therapy is a promising approach to treat genetic diseases, and liver-restricted expression of secretable GAA can produce immune tolerance and improve muscle GAA activity. To further understand the molecular mechanisms underlying Pompe disease and impact of gene therapy, we applied RNA sequencing.

Genetic and Acquired Lysosomal Disorders Drive Susceptibility to Tuberculosis by Compromising Macrophage Migration

Project description:A zebrafish forward genetic screen for determinants of susceptibility to Mycobacterium marinum identified a hypersusceptible mutant deficient in the lysosomal hydrolase Cathepsin L that manifests the hallmarks of human lysosomal storage diseases. In uninfected mutants, macrophages progressively accumulate undigested material in their lysosomes, leading to impaired migration and the accumulation of unengulfed cell debris. During mycobacterial infection, these vacuolated macrophages cannot migrate to phagocytose infected macrophages undergoing apoptosis in the tuberculous granuloma. Consequently, unengulfed apoptotic macrophages undergo secondary necrosis causing granuloma breakdown and increased mycobacterial growth. Macrophage lysosomal accumulations similarly impair migration to newly infecting mycobacteria. We find that important aspects of this phenotype are recapitulated in human smokers, who are at increased risk for tuberculosis. A majority of alveolar macrophages from smokers exhibit lysosomal accumulations and do not migrate to Mycobacterium tuberculosis. This incapacitation of highly microbicidal first-responding macrophages may contribute to smokers' susceptibility to tuberculosis.

Changes in the level of expression of genes involved in the pathogenic mechanisms in rare, inherited metabolic diseases.

Project description:Inherited metabolic diseases belong to the group of rare diseases (so called ‘orphan diseases’) whose incidence is less than 1: 5 000 live births. Among these diseases the lysosomal storage diseases (LSD) are also distinguished, which are caused by disorders in the lysosomal system resulting from the mutations in the genes coding for lysosomal hydrolases, cofactors, enzymes involved in the posttranslational processing, and proteins present in the lysosomal membrane. Although about 70 LSD are recognized so far, their pathomechanism is almost unknown. Hitherto existing results of scientific investigations indicate that different cellular pathways and events are involved in the pathogenic processes: autophagy, apoptosis, toxic action of lyso- derivatives of lipid compounds, disordered Ca2+ ions intracellular homeostasis, secondary storage of macromolecular compounds, signal transduction, inflammatory processes, deficient by-products and many more. We are especially interested in the explanation of pathomechanisms of Gaucher disease and Niemann-Pick type C disease (for the latter disease there is no therapy officially accepted). In this project we aim to experimentally explain: - which cellular pathways and mechanisms are activated and inactivated in cells originating from patients with different LSD and healthy individuals - are there differences in genes expression in different diseases - are gene expression changes related to known and observed biochemical and clinical changes.

Targeting lipid metabolism in pancreatic cancer [CRISPR]

Project description:Pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC) thrives in a nutrient-deprived microenvironment, making it particularly susceptible to treatments that interfere with cancer metabolism. For example, PDAC utilizes and is dependent on high levels of autophagy and other lysosomal processes. Although targeting these pathways has shown potential in pre-clinical studies, progress has been hampered by the challenge of identifying and characterizing favorable targets for drug development. Here, we characterize PIKfyve, a lipid kinase integral to lysosomal functioning as a novel and targetable vulnerability in PDAC. Through comprehensive metabolic analyses we find that PIKfyve inhibition obligates PDAC to upregulate de novo lipid synthesis, a relationship previously undescribed. PIKfyve inhibition triggers a distinct lipogenic gene expression and metabolic program, creating a dependency on de novo lipid metabolism pathways, including genes such as FASN and ACACA. These results suggest that targeting PIKfyve disrupts lysosome-dependent lipid metabolism in PDAC and may be a favorable metabolic target for therapeutic development. Further, this data suggests that one could take advantage of this synthetic dependency by co-targeting PIKfyve and FASN or ACACA as a therapeutic strategy.

GBA1 regulates the CLEAR network through Calcineurin and TFEB in cellular models of Parkinson´s disease

Project description:The GBA1 gene encodes the lysosomal enzyme acid-β-glucocerebrosidase (GCase). GBA1 mutations cause the lysosomal storage disorder Gaucher disease (GD) and are a genetic risk factor for Parkinson´s disease (PD). Many GBA1 mutations cause aberrant GCase folding and processing but how these impinge on PD pathogenesis remains unclear. We addressed GCase functions in human dopaminergic (DA) neurons derived from engineered GBA1-deficient (GBA1-/-) embryonic stem cells (hESCs) and GBA1N370S PD patient-derived induced pluripotent cells (hiPSCs). GBA1-mutant DA neurons displayed aberrant morphologies and gene expression that were rescued by recombinant GCase treatment. GBA1-/- neurons have hyperactive Calcineurin (CaN) and nuclear localization of the Transcription Factor EB (TFEB). Expression of TFEB targets and lysosomal CLEAR network components were increased in GBA1-/- DA neurons and rescued by GCase replacement and CaN inhibition. Our findings reveal a link between increased CaN activity and loss of GCase, providing a mechanism for the disturbed lysosomal/autophagy pathways in GBA1-associated PD.

iPSC-derived neurons from GBA1-associated Parkinson's disease patients show autophagic/lysosomal dysfunction and impaired calcium homeostasis

Project description:Mutations in the acid β-glucocerebrosidase (GBA1) gene, responsible for the lysosomal storage disorder Gaucher’s disease (GD), are the strongest genetic risk factor for Parkinson’s disease (PD) known to date. To elucidate the mechanisms underlying neurodegeneration in these patients, we generated induced pluripotent stem cells from subjects with GD and PD harboring GBA1 mutations and differentiated them to midbrain dopaminergic neurons. Highly enriched neurons showed a reduction of glucocerebrosidase activity and protein levels, increased glucosylceramide and α-synuclein levels and autophagic/lysosomal defects. Quantitative proteomics profiling revealed an increase of the neuronal calcium-binding protein 2 (NECAB2) in diseased neurons. We found dysregulation of calcium homeostasis and increased vulnerability to stress responses involving elevation of cytosolic calcium in mutant neurons. Importantly, correction of the mutations rescued such pathological phenotypes. Our findings provide evidence for a link between GBA1 mutations and complex changes in autophagic/lysosomal system and intracellular calcium homeostasis, which underlie vulnerability to neurodegeneration.
