Multi-Stage Native UVPD-MS to Characterize Single Amino Acid Variants of Human Mitochondrial BCAT2

ABSTRACT: We report a multi-stage approach combining collisional activation and 193 nm ultraviolet photodissociation (UVPD) to characterize single amino acid variants of the human mitochondrial enzyme branched-chain amino acid transferase 2 (BCAT2), a protein implicated in chemotherapeutic resistance in glioblastoma tumors.

BCAT1 regulates glioblastoma cell plasticity and contributes to immunosuppression

Project description:Glioblastoma is the most common malignant brain tumor in adults. Cellular plasticity and the poorly differentiated features result in a fast relapse of the tumors following treatment. Moreover, the immunosuppressive microenvironment proved to be a major obstacle to immunotherapeutic approaches. Branched-chain amino acid transaminase 1 (BCAT1) is a metabolic enzyme that converts branched-chain amino acids into branched-chain keto acids, depleting cellular α-ketoglutarate and producing glutamate. BCAT1 was shown to drive the growth of glioblastoma and other cancers; however, its oncogenic mechanism remains poorly understood. Here, we show that BCAT1 is crucial for maintaining the poorly differentiated state of glioblastoma cells and that its low expression correlates with a more differentiated glioblastoma phenotype. Furthermore, orthotopic tumor injection into immunocompetent mice demonstrated that the brain microenvironment is sufficient to induce differentiation of Bcat1-KO tumors in vivo. We link the transition to a differentiated cell state to the increased activity of TET demethylases and the hypomethylation and activation of neuronal differentiation genes. In addition, the knockout of Bcat1 attenuated immunosuppression, allowing for an extensive infiltration of CD8 + cytotoxic T-cells and complete abrogation of tumor growth. Further analysis in immunodeficient mice revealed that both tumor cell differentiation and immunomodulation following BCAT1-KO contribute to the long-term suppression of tumor growth. In summary, our study unveils BCAT1's pivotal role in promoting glioblastoma growth by inhibiting tumor cell differentiation and sustaining an immunosuppressive milieu. These findings offer a novel therapeutic avenue for targeting glioblastoma through the inhibition of BCAT1.

Impact of Preoperative Oral Branched-chain Amino Acids on Reducing Postoperative Insulin Resistance.

Project description:Postoperative insulin resistance refers to the phenomenon that the body’s glucose uptake stimulated by insulin is reduced due to stress effects such as trauma or the inhibitory effect of insulin on liver glucose output is weakened after surgery. There is a clear link between postoperative insulin resistance and poor perioperative prognosis. Therefore, exploring interventions to reduce postoperative stress insulin resistance, stabilize postoperative blood glucose, and reduce postoperative complications are clinical problems that need to be solved urgently. In recent years, research on branched-chain amino acids and metabolic diseases has become a hot spot. Studies have found that in the rat model, preoperatively given a high branched-chain amino acid diet can inhibit postoperative insulin resistance and stabilize blood glucose levels. This research plan is to try to add branched-chain amino acids before surgery to observe the occurrence of postoperative insulin resistance in patients.

Reprograming of Proteasomal Degradation by Branched Chain Amino Acid Metabolism

Project description:Branched chain amino acids (BCAAs) play an important role in energy and protein regulation. Defects in BCAA metabolism are linked to numerous pathologies, including diabetes, neurodegeneration, and premature aging. Isovaleric acidemia is a metabolic disease caused by defective leucine breakdown and an abnormal accumulation of isovaleric acid in the body fluids; however, the cytotoxic effects caused by excess isovaleric acid remained unclear. Here, we provide a regulatory connection between BCAA metabolism and the ubiquitin/proteasome-system (UPS) in Caenorhabditis elegans. Multi-omic analysis identified that worms lacking the isovaleryl-CoA dehydrogenase IVD-1 exhibit reduced expression of regulatory proteasome subunits and defects in ubiquitin-dependent proteolysis. Conversely, proteasomal protein degradation was supported by the branched chain amino transferase BCAT-1. Adding extra isovaleric acid to the growth medium triggered UPS defects, implying a causative role of perturbed proteostasis in isovaleric academia.

AHR activation in glioblastoma cells [I3CA_U87]

Project description:The objective of this study was to analyze AHR activation through aromatic amino acid metabolism. To this end, glioblastoma cells were exposed to aromatic amino acid derived metabolites and their ability to activate AHR was analysed. In addition, AHR activation was evaluated in glioblastoma cells expressing IL4I1, an aromatic amino acid degrading enzyme, with or without shRNA mediated knockdown of AHR.
