Glutathione enhances antitumor activity of NK cells via modulation of mitochondrial metabolism in acute leukemia patients

ABSTRACT: Natural killer (NK) cell function is markedly impaired in acute leukemia patients, weakening their antitumor immune response; however, the specific mechanisms underlying these functional deficits remain incompletely understood. Here, we reveal the critical role of glutathione (GSH) metabolism in maintaining NK cell homeostasis and function. Compared with healthy individuals, NK cells from acute leukemia patients exhibit markedly reduced GSH levels. GSH depletion impairs NK cell cytotoxic activity, cytokine production, and proliferative capacity. Notably, supplementation with glutathione reduced ethyl ester (GSHEE) enhances the antileukemic activity of NK cells. Mechanistically, GSH supports optimal NK cell function by improving mitochondrial function and promoting oxidative phosphorylation (OXPHOS). In summary, this study identifies disrupted GSH metabolism as a driver of NK cell dysfunction in acute leukemia and suggests that GSH supplementation may enhance NK cell-mediated antileukemic effects, offering a potential new strategy for NK cell-based immunotherapy.

Effect of foliar GSH treatment on gene expression profile in the root of Brassica napus

Project description:Glutathione is a tripeptide involved in diverse aspects of plant metabolism. We investigated how the reduced form of glutathione, GSH, applied site-specifically to plants, affects zinc (Zn) distribution and behavior in oilseed rape plants (Brassica napus) cultured hydroponically. Foliar-applied GSH significantly increased the Zn content in shoots and the root-to-shoot Zn translocation ratio; furthermore, this treatment raised the Zn concentration in the cytosol of root cells and substantially enhanced Zn xylem loading. Notably, microarray analysis revealed that the gene encoding pectin methylesterase was upregulated in roots following foliar GSH treatment. We conclude that certain physiological signals triggered in response to foliar-applied GSH were transported via sieve tubes and functioned in root cells, which, in turn, increased Zn availability in roots by releasing Zn from their cell wall. Consequently, root-to-shoot translocation of Zn was activated and Zn accumulation in the shoot was markedly increased.

CITE-seq of CAR-NK cells

Project description:Primary chimeric antigen receptor (CAR) natural killer (NK) cells show strong cytotoxic efficacy against acute myeloid leukemia (AML) in vivo. However, NK cell-mediated tumor killing is often impaired by tumor-mediated immune cell inactivation. Here, we report a novel strategy to overcome NK cell inhibition caused by the immune checkpoint NKG2A, which interacts with HLA-E expressed on AML blasts. We generated AML-specific CD33-directed CAR (CAR33)-KLRC1ko-NK cells with CRISPR/Cas9-based gene editing of the NKG2A-encoding KLRC1 gene. Single-cell multi-omic analyses revealed a higher proportion of activated cells in CAR33-NK- and CAR33-KLRC1ko-NK pools, which were preserved following AML-cell contact. This activated state of the CAR33-KLRC1ko-NK cells has been translated into improved antileukemic activity in vitro and in vivo against AML cell lines and primary blasts. This dual modification of primary NK cells has the potential to bypass the suppressive effect not only of AML but also in a broad range of other cancer identities.

Transcription profiling of human ALL exhibiting cross-resistance to prednisolone, vincristine, asparaginase and daunorubicinchemotherapy cross-resistance and treatment response in childhood acute lymphoblastic leukemia

Project description:Acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL) can be cured with combination chemotherapy in over 75% of children, but the cause of treatment failure in the remaining patients is unknown. We determined the sensitivity of ALL cells to individual antileukemic agents in 441 patients, and used a genome-wide approach to identify 45 genes differentially expressed in ALL exhibiting cross-resistance to prednisolone, vincristine, asparaginase and daunorubicin. We also identified a distinct phenotype of discordant resistance to asparaginase and vincristine and 139 genes whose expression was associated with this novel phenotype. The expression of these genes discriminated treatment outcome in two independent patient populations, identifying a subset of patients with a markedly inferior outcome (37%Â±13% 5-year DFS).

Pyridoxine induces glutathione synthesis via PKM2-mediated Nrf2 transactivation and confers neuroprotection

Project description:Oxidative stress is a major pathogenic mechanism in Parkinson’s disease (PD). As an important cellular antioxidant, glutathione (GSH) balances the production and incorporation of free radicals to protect neurons from oxidative damage. Unfortunately, the GSH level is greatly decreased in the brains of PD patients. Hence, clarifying the molecular mechanism of GSH deficiency may help deepen our knowledge of PD pathogenesis. Here we report that the astrocytic dopamine D2 receptor (DRD2) regulates GSH synthesis via PKM2-mediated Nrf2 transactivation. Besides, we find that pyridoxine can dimerize PKM2 to promote GSH biosynthesis. Further experiments show that pyridoxine supplementation increases the resistance of nigral dopaminergic neurons to 1-methyl-4-phenyl-1,2,3,6-tetrahydropyridine (MPTP)-induced neurotoxicity in wild-type mice as well as in astrocytic Drd2 conditional knockout mice. Given that dopamine agonist treatment in PD is limited by their intolerable side effects and diminished effectiveness over time, we anticipate dimerizing PKM2 to be a new strategy for PD treatment.

Analysis of the glutathione-deficient lens transcriptome

Project description:Purpose: To better understand the effects of glutathione (GSH)-deficiency on lens homeostasis and cataractogenesis. Methods: The transcriptome of lens epithelia and fiber cells was obtained from C57BL/6 LEGSKO (lens GSH synthesis knockout) and buthionine sulfoximine (BSO)-treated LEGSKO mice and compared to C57BL/6 wild-type mice using RNA-Seq. Results: RNA-Seq results were in excellent agreement with qPCR (correlation coefficients between 0.87-0.94 and p<5E-6 for a subset of 36 mRNAs). Of the 24,415 transcripts mapped to the mouse genome, 441 genes showed significantly modulated expression. Pathway analysis indicated major changes in EMT signaling, visual cycle, small molecule biochemistry, and lipid metabolism. GSH-deficient lenses showed upregulation of genes relating to detoxification, including Aldh1a1, Aldh3a1 (aldehyde dehydrogenases), Mt1, Mt2 (metallothioneins), Ces1g (carboxylesterase), and Slc14a1 (urea transporter UT-B). These proteins share substrate specificity with GSH or glutathione-S-transferase and may protect GSH-deficient lenses. Genes associated with canonical EMT pathways, including Wnt10a, Egf, and Syk, showed upregulation in lens epithelia samples. Severely GSH-deficient lens epithelia showed a broad downregulation of vision-related genes (including Cryge, Crygf, and Rho). The BSO-treated LEGSKO lens epithelia transcriptome has significant correlation (r=0.63,P<0.005) to that of lens epithelia undergoing EMT. Conclusions: These results show that GSH depletion of the lens leads to expression of detoxifying genes and activation of EMT signaling, in addition to changes in transport systems and lipid homeostasis. These data give new insight into the adaptation and consequences of GSH-deficiency in the lens and suggest that supplementation of GSH or a precursor after cataract surgery could potentially reduce the incidence of EMT-mediated posterior subcapsular opacification.

Serine metabolism supports macrophage IL-1β production.

Project description:Serine is a substrate for nucleotides, NADPH and glutathione (GSH) synthesis. Previous studies in cancer cells and lymphocytes have shown that serine-dependent one-carbon units are necessary for nucleotide production to support proliferation. Presently, it is unknown whether serine metabolism impacts the function of non-proliferative cells, such as inflammatory macrophages. We find that in macrophages, serine is required for optimal lipopolysaccharide (LPS) induction of IL-1β mRNA expression, but not inflammasome activation. The mechanism involves a requirement for glycine, which is made from serine, to support macrophage glutathione (GSH) synthesis. Cell-permeable GSH, but not the one-carbon donor formate, rescues IL-1β mRNA expression. Pharmacological inhibition of de novo serine synthesis in vivo decreased LPS induction of IL-1β levels and improved survival in an LPS-driven model of sepsis in mice. Our study reveals that serine metabolism is necessary for GSH synthesis to support IL-1β cytokine production.
