Project description:Oxygen fluctuation during tissue remodeling imposes a major metabolic challenge in human tumors. Stem-like tumor cells in glioblastomas are believed to possess extraordinary metabolic flexibility, enabling them to initiate growth even under non-permissive conditions. To identify adaptive response mechanism, we compared the effects of acute and chronic hypoxia versus oxygenation on stem-like glioblastoma (GS) cells. GS cell lines were established and propagated either under normoxia (21% O2) or hypoxia (1% O2) and subsequently exposed to acute normoxia or hypoxia, respectively. Gene expression profiling revealed that acute hypoxia predominantly induced metabolic pathways and cell cycle arrest, whereas chronic hypoxia activated neurodevelopmental processes. In particular, we found increased expression of glycolytic enzymes, especially of the preparatory phase of glycolysis, under acute hypoxia, whereas pentose phosphate pathway (PPP) enzymes were downregulated. The opposite was found for acute oxygenation of hypoxic GS cells. Findings were confirmed by qPCR and immunoblot analyses. Despite downregulation by hypoxia, expression of PPP enzymes is increased in GBMs compared to normal brain, whereas expression of hypoxia-inducible enzymes of the parallel preparatory phase of glycolysis is decreased. Immunohistochemistry revealed strong staining for PPP enzymes in the bulk of GBM tissue, especially in highly proliferative areas, but not in pseudopalisading (hypoxic) cells. Glycolytic enzymes displayed an inverse pattern. Mass spectrometric analysis using [1,2-13C2]-D-glucose showed reduced glucose flux through the PPP under hypoxia in favor of flux through glycolysis. Acute and chronic hypoxia increased cell migration but reduced proliferation, whereas normoxia had opposite effects. Our findings extend Warburg’s observations by showing that in most tumor cells the PPP, which supplies metabolites for biomass production, is favored over the parallel preparatory phase of glycolysis, but is suppressed under acute severe hypoxia, causing a switch to direct glycolysis to protect against hypoxic stress.

Project description:Upon antigen stimulation, the bioenergetic demands of T cells increase dramatically over the resting state. Although a role for the metabolic switch to glycolysis has been suggested to support increased anabolic activities and facilitate T cell growth and proliferation, whether cellular metabolism controls T cell lineage choices remains poorly understood. Here we report that the glycolytic pathway is actively regulated during the differentiation of inflammatory TH17 and Foxp3-expressing regulatory T cells (Treg), and controls cell fate determination. TH17 but not Treg-inducing conditions resulted in strong upregulation of the glycolytic activity and induction of glycolytic enzymes. Blocking glycolysis inhibited TH17 development while promoting Treg cell generation. Moreover, the transcription factor hypoxia-inducible factor 1a (HIF1a) was selectively expressed in TH17 cells and its induction required signaling through mTOR, a central regulator of cellular metabolism. HIF1a-dependent transcriptional program was important for mediating glycolytic activity, thereby contributing to the lineage choices between TH17 and Treg cells. Lack of HIF1a resulted in diminished TH17 development but enhanced Treg differentiation, and protected mice from autoimmune CNS inflammation. Our studies demonstrate that HIF1a-dependent glycolytic pathway orchestrates a metabolic checkpoint for the differentiation of TH17 and Treg cells. Naïve CD4 T cells from wild-type and HIF1a-deficient mice (in triplicates each group) were differentiated under TH17 conditions for 2.5 days, and RNA was analyzed by microarrays.

Project description:Protein deamidation is emerging as a post-translational modification that regulates protein function. The general role of protein deamidation is emerging asn fundamental to biological processes, yet remains is poorly understood. Here, we report that the rate-limiting enzyme of pyrimidine synthesis, a trifunctional enzyme containing activity of carbamoyl phosphate synthetase, aspartyl transcarbamoylase and dihydroorotase (CAD), deamidates the RelA subunit to inactivate NF-κB and promote glycolysis. Functional screening and identified CAD as a negative regulator of NF-κB activation, and biochemical analysis demonstrated that CAD deamidatesd RelA in vitro and in cellsto negate NF-κB activation. D eamidated RelA, though failed to activate the expression of NF-κB-dependent genes, thoughbut it up-regulated that of key glycolytic enzymes to promote glycolysis and cell proliferation. In proliferating cells, CAD is activated and catalyzes de novo pyrimidine synthesis to meet the metabolic need during S phase. CAD-mediated RelA deamidation and NF-κB inactivation and glycolytic gene expression paralleled in a cell cycle-dependent mannerdriven by CAD-mediated RelA deamidation are necessary for cell proliferation. In addition, CAD promoted glycolysis via deamidated RelA that up-regulated the expression of key glycolytic enzymes. Stratification of cancer cell lines by CAD-mediated RelA deamidation predicted their sensitivity to inhibitors of glycolytic enzymes, while a subset of mutations predisposed RelA to deamidation and promoted glycolysis to enable cell proliferation. This work describes a process of metabolic reprogramming enabled by CAD-mediated RelA deamidation that underpins cell proliferation and tumorigenesis.

Project description:Epigenetic and metabolic reprogrammings are implicated in cancer progression with unclear mechanisms. We report here that the histone methyltransferase NSD2 drives cancer cell and tumor resistance to therapeutics such as tamoxifen, doxorubicin, and radiation by reprogramming of glucose metabolism. NSD2 coordinately up-regulates expression of TIGAR, HK2 and G6PD and stimulates pentose phosphate pathway (PPP) production of NADPH for ROS reduction. We discover that elevated expression of TIGAR, previously characterized as a fructose-2,6-bisphosphatase, is localized in the nuclei of resistant tumor cells where it stimulates NSD2 expression and global H3K36me2 mark. Mechanistically, TIGAR interacts with the antioxidant regulator Nrf2 and facilitates chromatin assembly of Nrf2-H3K4me3 methylase MLL1 and elongating Pol-II, independent of its metabolic enzymatic activity. In human tumors, high levels of NSD2 correlate strongly with early recurrence and poor survival and are associated with nuclear-localized TIGAR. This study defines a nuclear TIGAR-mediated, epigenetic autoregulatory loop functioning in redox rebalance for resistance to tumor therapeutics.

Project description:Many cancers rely on glycolytic metabolism to fuel rapid proliferation. This has spurred interest in designing drugs that target tumor glycolysis such as AZD3965, a small molecule inhibitor of Monocarboxylate Transporter 1 (MCT1) currently undergoing Phase I evaluation for cancer treatment. Since MCT1 mediates proton-linked transport of monocarboxylates such as lactate and pyruvate across the plasma membrane (Halestrap and Meredith, 2004), AZD3965 is thought to block tumor growth through disruption of lactate transport and glycolysis. Here we show that MCT1 inhibition impairs proliferation of glycolytic breast cancer cells that express MCT4 via disruption of pyruvate rather than lactate export. We found that MCT1 expression is elevated in glycolytic breast tumors and cell lines as well as in malignant breast and lung tissues. High MCT1 expression predicts poor prognosis in breast and lung cancer patients. Stable knockdown and AZD3965-mediated inhibition of MCT1 promote oxidative metabolism. Acute inhibition of MCT1 reduces pyruvate export rate but does not consistently alter lactate transport or glycolytic flux in breast cancer cells that also express MCT4. Despite the lack of glycolysis impairment, MCT1 loss-of-function decreases breast cancer cell proliferation and blocks growth of mammary fat pad xenograft tumors. Our data suggest that MCT1 expression is elevated in glycolytic cancers to promote pyruvate export, which when inhibited enhances oxidative metabolism and reduces proliferation. This study presents an alternative molecular consequence of MCT1 inhibitors that further supports their use as anti-cancer therapeutics. Since MCT1 levels are elevated in glycolytic and malignant breast tumors, we hypothesized that MCT1 may contribute to the Warburg effect metabolic phenotype. To test this hypothesis, we generated whole genome microarray data from breast cancer cell lines either a) expressing a short hairpin (sh)RNA-mediated stable knockdown of MCT1; or b) treated for 24 hours with an MCT1 inhibitor (AZD3965). Scramble shRNA or DMSO were used as controls, and all conditions were analzed in triplicate. The cell lines used â HS578T, SUM149PT, and SUM159PT â are among the most glycolytic in a panel of 31 breast cancer cell lines.

The untreated MCF7 and TMR cell lines served as controls for the study.

Project description:Post-translational modifications of proteins are crucial to the regulation of their activity and function. As a newly discovered acylation modification, crotonylation of non-histone proteins remains largely unexplored, particularly in human embryonic stem cells (hESCs). Here we report the investigation of induced crotonylation in hESCs, which resulted in hESCs of different pluripotency states differentiating into the endodermal lineage. We showed that increased protein crotonylation in hESCs was accompanied by transcriptomic shifts and decreased glycolysis. Through large-scale profiling of non-histone protein crotonylation, we showed that metabolic enzymes were major targets of inducible crotonylation in hESCs. We further discovered GAPDH as a key glycolytic enzyme regulated by crotonylation during endodermal differentiation from hESCs, where crotonylation of GAPDH decreased its enzymatic activity thereby leading to reduced glycolysis. Our study demonstrates that crotonylation of glycolytic enzymes may be crucial to metabolic switching and cell fate determination in hESCs.

Project description:Hyperactivated glycolysis is a metabolic hallmark of most cancer cells. Although sporadic information has revealed that glycolytic metabolites possess non-metabolic functions as signaling molecules, it remains largely elusive how these metabolites interact with and functionally regulate their binding targets. Here we introduce a Target Responsive Accessibility Profiling (TRAP) approach that measures ligand binding-induced accessibility changes for target identification through globally labeling reactive proteinaceous lysines. With TRAP, we mapped 913 responsive target candidates and 2,487 interactions for 10 major glycolytic metabolites in a model cancer cell line. The wide targetome depicted by TRAP unveils diverse regulatory modalities of glycolytic metabolites involving direct perturbation of carbohydrate metabolism enzymes, intervention of an orphan transcriptional protein’s activity, and modulation of targetome-level acetylation. These results deepen our understanding of how glycolysis orchestrates signaling pathways in cancer cells in support of their survival and inspire future exploitation of the glycolytic targetome for cancer therapy development.

Project description:The metabolic adaptation of eukaryotic cells to hypoxia involves increasing dependence upon glycolytic ATP production, an event with consequences for both cell bioenergetics and cell fate. This response is regulated at the transcriptional level by HIF-1-dependent transcriptional upregulation of all ten glycolytic enzymes. However, this response alone does not account for the levels of ATP produced in hypoxia. Here, we investigated additional mechanisms of regulating glycolysis in hypoxia. We found that both intestinal epithelial cells treated with inhibitors of transcription and translation and human platelets (which lack nuclei) maintained the capacity for hypoxia-induced glycolysis, suggesting the involvement of a non-transcriptional component to the hypoxia-induced metabolic switch to a highly glycolytic phenotype. Mass spectrometric analysis of the interactome of immunoprecipitated rate-limiting glycolytic enzymes identified hypoxia-sensitive complexes comprising multiple glycolytic enzymes and glucose transporters in intestinal epithelial cells. Surprisingly, the formation of glycolytic complexes, though not dependent upon transcription, occurs via a HIF-1?-dependent mechanism, suggesting that HIF-1? may play a moonlighting role in the formation / maintenance of glycolytic complexes. Furthermore, we provide evidence for the presence of HIF-1? in cytosolic fractions of hypoxic cells which physically associated with the glucose transporter GLUT1 and the glycolytic enzyme PFKP in a hypoxia-sensitive manner. In conclusion, we hypothesize that HIF-1? plays a role in initiation and/or maintenance of glycolytic complexes in intestinal epithelial cells under hypoxic conditions in a manner which optimizes catalytic efficiency of the pathway by facilitating substrate channeling of glycolytic intermediates between sequential pathway enzymes. In hypoxia, cells undergo a metabolic switch to increased glycolysis. This has important implications for cell behavior, phenotype, and fate in both healthy and cancerous cells. Here we describe a mechanism by which HIF-1, in addition to increasing glycolytic enzyme expression, promotes glycolysis via the formation of a metabolic complex.
