Project description:Ischemic acute kidney injury (AKI), a complication that frequently occurs in hospital settings, is often associated with hemodynamic compromise, sepsis, cardiac surgery or exposure to nephrotoxicants. AKI is associated with immune cell infiltration into the kidney stroma, which causes acute tubular injury. Here, using a murine renal ischemic-reperfusion injury (IRI) model we show that intercalated cells (ICs) rapidly adopt a pro-inflammatory phenotype post IRI. During the early phase of AKI, we demonstrate that either blocking the pro-inflammatory P2Y14 receptor located on the apical membrane of ICs, or ablation of the gene encoding the P2Y14 receptor in ICs: 1) inhibits IRI-induced chemokine expression increase in ICs; 2) reduces neutrophil and monocyte renal infiltration; 3) reduces the extent of kidney dysfunction; and 4) attenuates proximal tubule (PT) damage. These observations indicate that the P2Y14 receptor participates in the very first inflammatory steps associated with ischemic AKI. In addition, we show that the concentration of the P2Y14 receptor ligand, uridine diphosphate-glucose (UDP-Glc), is higher in urine samples from intensive care unit patients who developed AKI when compared with urine from patients without AKI. In particular, we observed a strong correlation between UDP-Glc concentration and the development of AKI in cardiac surgery patients. Our study identifies the UDP-Glc/P2Y14 receptor axis as a potential target for the prevention and/or attenuation of ischemic-AKI.

Project description:Complex molecular mechanisms ensure cellular homeostasis between nutrient sensing and energy metabolism. Strong evidence from many laboratories supports a role for the hexosamine biosynthetic pathway (HBP) and its end product, UDP-GlcNAc, as important nutrient sensors. Isotopic photocleavable tagging for O-GlcNAc profiling (isoPTOP) was performed for quantitative and site specific identification of O-GlcNAcylation upon glucose mediated nutrient fluctuation. Mammalian target of Rapamycin complex 1（mTORC1）is a metabolic hub, which can sense the availability of various nutrients. We found that Raptor, the scaffold of the mTORC1 complex, is O-GlcNAcylated at T700. Our finding provides a novel mechanism that UDP-GlcNAc mediates glucose signal to mTORC1 by O-GlcNAcylating Raptor at T700 to regulate mTORC1 activity and cell growth.

Project description:In Trypanosoma brucei, there are fourteen enzymatic biotransformations that collectively convert glucose into five essential nucleotide sugars: UDP-Glc, UDP-Gal, UDP-GlcNAc, GDP-Man and GDP-Fuc. These biotransformations are catalyzed by thirteen discrete enzymes, five of which possess putative peroxisome targeting sequences. Published experimental analyses using immunofluorescence microscopy and/or digitonin latency and/or subcellular fractionation and/or organelle proteomics have localized eight and six of these enzymes to the glycosomes of bloodstream form and procyclic form T. brucei, respectively. Here we increase these glycosome localizations to eleven in both lifecycle stages while noting that one, phospho-N-acetylglucosamine mutase, also localizes to the cytoplasm. In the course of these studies, the heterogeneity of glycosome contents was also noted. These data suggest that, unlike other eukaryotes, all of nucleotide sugar biosynthesis in T. brucei is compartmentalized to the glycosomes in both lifecycle stages.

Project description:Our study provides evidence for the mechanism of Glc regulation of cotton fiber elongation, indicating that Glc not only serves as a nutrient, but also serves as a signal to regulate cotton fiber elongation. We also provided evidence that there is crosstalk between Glc and BR, and that the BR signal is located downstream of the Glc signal in the regulation of cotton fiber elongation

Project description:Trypanosoma brucei, the etiological agent of sleeping sickness, has particular peroxisome-like organelles called glycosomes where several metabolic pathways are compartmentalized, including glycolysis. Many enzymes from sugar nucleotide biosynthetic pathways are located in this organelle, contrasting with the cytosolic localisation reported in the eukaryota domain. The UDP-glucose pyrophosphorylase (UGP), the enzyme responsible for UDP-glucose (UDP-Glc) production, is essential for growth and survival of trypanosomes. In addition, UGP is localized in both glycosomes and cytosol, raising questions about why would these parasites maintain a pathway functional in two different subcellular compartments. UGP is imported into glycosomes by piggybacking on the glycosomal protein PEPCK, which is the first evidence of piggybacking involving two proteins not functionally related, and the first report in trypanosomatids. The dataset demonstrates that UGP is present in the total cellular extract and the glycocomal fraction of the wild-type trypanosomes, while only in the total cellular extract of the PEPCK null mutant.

Project description:Streptococcus pneumoniae is a strictly fermentative human pathogen that relies on carbohydrate metabolism to generate energy for growth. The nasopharynx colonised by the bacterium is poor in free sugars, but mucosa lining glycans can provide a source of sugar. In blood and inflamed tissues glucose is the prevailing sugar. As a result during progression from colonisation to disease S. pneumoniae has to cope with a pronounced shift in carbohydrate nature and availability. Thus, we set out to assess the pneumococcal response to sugars found in glycans and the influence of glucose (Glc) on this response at the transcriptional, physiological and metabolic levels. Galactose (Gal), N-acetylglucosamine (GlcNAc) and mannose (Man) affected the expression of 8 to 14% of the genes covering cellular functions including central carbon metabolism and virulence. The pattern of end-products as monitored by in vivo 13C-NMR is in good agreement with the fermentation profiles during growth, while the pools of phosphorylated metabolites are consistent with the type of fermentation observed (homolactic vs. mixed) and regulation at the metabolic level. Furthermore, the accumulation of -Gal6P and Man6P indicate metabolic bottlenecks in the metabolism of Gal and Man, respectively. Glc added to cells actively metabolizing other sugar(s)was readily consumed and elicited a metabolic shift towards a homolactic profile. The transcriptional response to Glc was large (over 5% of the genome). In central carbon metabolism (most represented category), Glc exerted mostly negative regulation. The smallest response was observed on a sugar mix, suggesting that exposure to varied sugars improves the fitness of S. pneumoniae. The expression of classical virulence factors was negatively controlled by Glc in a sugar-dependent manner. Overall, our results shed new light on the link between carbohydrate metabolism, adaptation to host niches and virulence. Two conditions with the same strain (D39), including a dye swap

Project description:Heparan sulfate (HS), a long linear polysaccharide, is implicated in various steps of tumorigenesis, including angiogenesis. We successfully interfered with HS biosynthesis using a peracetylated 4-deoxy analog of the HS constituent GlcNAc and studied the compoundM-bM-^@M-^Ys metabolic fate and its effect on angiogenesis. The 4-deoxy analog was activated intracellularly into UDP-4-deoxy-GlcNAc and HS expression was inhibited up to ~96% (IC50 = 16 M-BM-5M). HS chain size was reduced, without detectable incorporation of the 4-deoxy analog, likely due to reduced levels of UDP-GlcNAc and/or inhibition of glycosyltransferase activity. Comprehensive gene expression analysis revealed reduced expression of genes regulated by HS binding growth factors as FGF-2 and VEGF. Cellular binding and signaling of these angiogenic factors was inhibited. Micro-injection in zebrafish embryos strongly reduced HS biosynthesis, and angiogenesis was inhibited in both zebrafish and chicken model systems. All these data identify 4-deoxy-GlcNAc as a potent inhibitor of HS synthesis which hampers pro-angiogenic signaling and neo-vessel formation. 9 samples were analyzed: 3 biological replicates from untreated SKOV3 cells, 3 biological replicates from SKOV3 cells treated with peracetylated GlcNAc, 3 biological replicates from SKOV3 cells treated with peracetylated 4-deoxy-GlcNAc

Project description:The first step of glycosylphosphatidylinositol (GPI) anchor biosynthesis in all eukaryotes is the addition of N-acetylglucosamine (GlcNAc) to phosphatidylinositol (PI) which is catalysed by a UDP-GlcNAc : PI α1-6 GlcNAc-transferase. This enzyme has been shown to be a complex of at least seven subunits in mammalian cells and a similar complex of homologous subunits has been postulated in yeast. Homologs of most of these mammalian and yeast subunits were identified in the Trypanosoma brucei predicted protein database. The putative catalytic subunit of the T. brucei complex,TbGPI3, was epitope tagged with three consecutive c-Myc sequences at its C-terminus. Immunoprecipitation of TbGPI3-3Myc followed by native polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis and anti-Myc Western blot showed that it is present in a ~240 kDa complex. Label-free quantitative proteomics were performed to compare anti-Myc pull-downs from lysates of TbGPI-3Myc expressing and wild type cell lines. TbGPI3-3Myc was the most highly enriched protein in the TbGPI3-3Myc lysate pull-down and partner proteins TbGPI15, TbGPI9, TbGPI2, TbGPI1 and TbERI1 were also identified with significant enrichment. Our proteomics data also suggest that an Arv-1 like protein (TbArv1) is a subunit of the T. brucei complex. Yeast and mammalian Arv1 have been previously implicated in GPI biosynthesis, but here we present the first experimental evidence for physical association of Arv1 with GPI biosynthetic machinery. A putative E2-ligase has also been tentatively identified as part of the T. brucei UDP-GlcNAc : PI α1-6 GlcNAc-transferase complex.
