Project description:Impaired branched-chain amino acid (BCAA) catabolism has recently been implicated in the development of mechanical pain, but the underlying molecular mechanisms are unclear. Here we report that defective BCAA catabolism in dorsal root ganglion (DRG) neurons sensitizes mice to mechanical pain by increasing lactate production and expression of the mechanotransduction channel Piezo2. In high-fat diet-fed obese mice, we observe downregulation of PP2Cm, a key regulator of the BCAA catabolic pathway, in DRG neurons. Mice with conditional knockout of PP2Cm in DRG neurons exhibit mechanical allodynia under normal or SNI-induced neuropathic injury conditions. Furthermore, the VAS scores in the plasma of patients with peripheral neuropathic pain are positively correlated with BCAA contents. Mechanistically, defective BCAA catabolism in DRG neurons promotes lactate production through glycolysis, which increases H3K18la modification and drives Piezo2 expression. Inhibition of lactate production or Piezo2 silencing attenuates the pain phenotype of knockout mice in response to mechanical stimuli. Therefore, our study demonstrates a causal role of defective BCAA catabolism in mechanical pain by enhancing metabolite-mediated epigenetic regulation.

Project description:Metabolic adaptations in response to changes in energy supply and demand are essential for survival. The mitochondrial calcium uniporter plays a key role in coordinating metabolic homeostasis by regulating TCA cycle activation, mitochondrial fatty acid oxidation and cellular calcium signaling. However, a comprehensive analysis of uniporter-regulated mitochondrial metabolic pathways has remained unexplored. Here, we investigate metabolic consequences of uniporter loss- and gain-of-function using uniporter knock out cells and the liver cancer fibrolamellar carcinoma (FLC), which we demonstrate to have elevated mitochondrial calcium levels. Our results reveal that branched chain amino acid (BCAA) catabolism and the urea cycle are uniporter-regulated metabolic pathways. Reduced uniproter function increases expression of BCAA catabolism genes, and the urea cycle enzyme ornithine transcarbamylase (OTC). In contrast, high uniporter activity in FLC suppresses their expression. This suppression happens via the transcription factor KLF15, a master regulator of liver metabolism, suggesting that calcium signaling plays a central role in FLC-associated metabolic changes, including hyperammonemia. Consistent with this, activation of BCAA catabolism in FLC cells impairs their growth. Collectively, our study identifies an important role for mitochondrial calcium signaling in metabolic adaptation through transcriptional regulation of metabolism and elucidates its importance for BCAA and ammonia metabolism in FLC.

Project description:Correct B cell identity at each stage of cellular differentiation during B lymphocyte development is critically dependent on a tightly controlled epigenomic landscape. We previously identified HDAC7 as an essential regulator of early B cell development and its absence leads to a drastic block at the pro-B to pre-B cell transition. More recently, we demonstrated that HDAC7 loss in pro-B-ALL in infants associates with a worse prognosis. Here we delineate the molecular mechanisms by which HDAC7 modulates early B cell development. We find that HDAC7 deficiency drives global chromatin de-condensation, histone marks deposition and deregulates other epigenetic regulators and mobile elements. Specifically, the absence of HDAC7 induces TET2 expression, which promotes DNA 5-hydroxymethylation and chromatin de-condensation. HDAC7 deficiency also results in the aberrant expression of microRNAs and LINE-1 transposable elements. These findings shed light on the mechanisms by which HDAC7 loss or misregulation may lead to B cell–based hematological malignancies.

Project description:Epigenetics and Alternative Splicing are both critical mechanisms guiding gene expression. Several studies have demonstrated that epigenetic marks can influence alternative splicing decisions, but less is known about how alternative splicing may impact epigenetics. Here, we demonstrate that several genes encoding histone modifying enzymes are alternatively spliced downstream of T cell activation signaling pathways, including HDAC7, a gene previously implicated in controlling gene expression programs and differentiation in T cells. Using CRISPR-Cas9 gene editing and cDNA expression, we show that differential inclusion of HDAC7 exon 9 controls the interaction of HDAC7 with protein chaperones with resulting impact on histone modifications and gene expression. Notably, the long isoform, which is favored upon JNK signaling, promotes expression of several critical T cell surface proteins including CD3, CD28, CD69. Thus, we demonstrate that alternative splicing of HDAC7 has a global impact on epigenetics and gene expression, and may contribute to T cell regulation.

Project description:Title of Publication: Histone Deacetylase 7 Regulates Cell Survival and TCR Signaling in CD4/CD8 Double-Positive Thymocytes Abstract of publicaton: CD4/CD8 double-positive (DP) thymocytes express the transcriptional repressor Histone Deacetylase 7 (HDAC7), a class IIa HDAC that is exported from the cell nucleus after T cell receptor (TCR) engagement. Through signal-dependent nuclear export, class IIa HDACs such as HDAC7 mediate signal-dependent changes in gene expression that are important to developmental fate decisions in multiple tissues. We report that HDAC7 is exported from the cell nucleus during positive selection in thymocytes, and regulates genes mediating the coupling between TCR engagement and downstream events that determine cell survival. Thymocytes lacking HDAC7 are inefficiently positively selected due to a severely shortened lifespan and exhibit a truncated repertoire of TCR J segments. The expression of multiple important mediators and modulators of the response to TCR engagement is altered in HDAC7-deficient thymocytes, resulting in increased tonic MAP kinase activity that contributes to the observed loss of viability. Remarkably, the activity of Protein Kinase D, the kinase that mediates nuclear export of HDAC7 in response to TCR signaling, is also increased in HDAC7-deficient thymocytes, suggesting that HDAC7 nuclear export governs a self-sustaining auto-excitatory loop. These experiments add to the understanding of the life/death decision in thymic T cell development, define a novel function for class IIa HDACs, and point to a novel feed-forward mechanism whereby these molecules regulate their own state and mediate stable developmental transitions. Goal of Microarray experiment: We did these experiments to determine how alteration of the function of HDAC7, a site-specific and signal-dependent repressor of transcription, changes gene expression in CD4/CD8 DP thymocytes. Three biological replicate samples were prepared for each non-wild type mouse strain (Samples 7-18). Six biological replicates were prepared for the wild type strain (Samples 1-6). Total RNA was prepared from isolated CD4/CD8 Double-positive thymocytes and labeled with the Affymetrix Whole-Transcript labeling protocol. Labeled probes were hybridized to one Affymetrix Mouse Gene 1.0ST array each. Data from .cel files were normalized using RMA, in normalization groups representing each of the binary comparisons made. These binary comparisons between sample groups represent gene expression changes due to loss of HDAC7 (samples 1-3 vs. 7-9), transgenic expression of an HDAC7-VP16 fusion protein (samples 4-6 vs. 10-12), positive thymic selection (samples 1-6 vs. samples 11-15), and negative thymic selection (Samples 11-15 vs. samples 16-18).

Title of manuscript: Nuclear Export of Histone Deacetylase 7 During Thymic Selection Mediates Immune Self-tolerance. abstract of manuscript: Histone Deacetylase 7 (HDAC7) is a TCR signal-dependent regulator of differentiation that is highly expressed in CD4/CD8 double-positive (DP) thymocytes. Here we examine the effect of blocking TCR-dependent nuclear export of HDAC7 during thymic selection, through expression of a signal-resistant mutant of HDAC7 (HDAC7-?P) in thymocytes. We find that HDAC7-?P Transgenic thymocytes exhibit a profound block in negative thymic selection, but can still undergo positive selection, resulting in the escape of autoreactive T cells into the periphery. Gene expression profiling reveals a comprehensive suppression of the negative selection-associated gene expression program in DP thymocytes, associated with a defect in the activation of MAP kinase pathways by TCR signals. The consequence of this block in vivo is a lethal autoimmune syndrome involving the exocrine pancreas and other abdominal organs. These experiments establish a novel molecular model of autoimmunity and cast new light on the relationship between thymic selection and immune self-tolerance. Goal of Microarray experiment: We did these experiments to determine how alteration of the function of HDAC7, a site-specific and signal-dependent repressor of transcription, changes gene expression in CD4/CD8 DP thymocytes.

Project description:The establishment of proper epigenomic landscape is essential during B lymphocyte development in order to acquire a correct B cell identity at each cellular differentiation stage. We previously identified HDAC7 as a critical regulator of early B cell development. Its absence indeed led to the aberrant activation of inappropriate lineage genes, a reduction of proliferation and an increase in cell apoptosis. More recently, we have demonstrated that HDAC7 loss in infant pro-B-ALL associates with poor prognosis. Here we shed light into the HDAC7-mediated molecular mechanisms during early B cell development. HDAC7 deficiency drives not only the expression of inappropriate lineage genes, but also global chromatin de-condensation and deregulation of epigenetic regulators of DNA methylation and potential damaging elements. Specifically, HDAC7 absence induces the expression of TET2, which promotes DNA 5-hydroxymethylation and aberrant gene activation. HDAC7 deficiency also results in the uncontrolled expression of microRNAs and non-coding elements such as LINE-1 transposable elements. These findings are relevant for the mechanistic explanation of why HDAC7 is affected in multiple B-related hematological malignancies.
