Project description:The protein homeostasis (proteostasis) network maintains balanced protein synthesis, folding, transport and degradation within a cell. Because failure to maintain proteostasis is associated with aging and disease, a concerted effort has been placed on studying how the proteostasis network responds to various stresses. Typically, this is accomplished using ectopic overexpression of well-characterized, model misfolded protein substrates; however, how cells tolerate large-scale, diverse burden to the proteostasis network is not understood. Aneuploidy, the state of imbalanced chromosome content, adversely affects the proteostasis network by dysregulating the expression of hundreds of proteins simultaneously. Using aneuploid yeast cells as a model, we address what compensatory adjustments enable cells to tolerate large-scale, diverse challenges to the proteostasis network. Here we show adapted aneuploid Saccharomyces cerevisiae strains that exhibit robust growth and enhanced stress tolerance associated with enhancement of translation, folding, and quality control systems without genetic changes or activation of canonical stress response pathways.

Project description:BackgroundThe protein homeostasis (proteostasis) network maintains balanced protein synthesis, folding, transport, and degradation within a cell. Failure to maintain proteostasis is associated with aging and disease, leading to concerted efforts to study how the network responds to various proteotoxic stresses. This is often accomplished using ectopic overexpression of well-characterized, model misfolded protein substrates. However, how cells tolerate large-scale, diverse burden to the proteostasis network is not understood. Aneuploidy, the state of imbalanced chromosome content, adversely affects the proteostasis network by dysregulating the expression of hundreds of proteins simultaneously. Using aneuploid haploid yeast cells as a model, we address whether cells can tolerate large-scale, diverse challenges to the proteostasis network.ResultsHere we characterize several aneuploid Saccharomyces cerevisiae strains isolated from a collection of stable, randomly generated yeast aneuploid cells. These strains exhibit robust growth and resistance to multiple drugs which induce various forms of proteotoxic stress. Whole genome re-sequencing of the strains revealed this was not the result of genetic mutations, and transcriptome profiling combined with ribosome footprinting showed that genes are expressed and translated in accordance to chromosome copy number. In some strains, various facets of the proteostasis network are mildly upregulated without chronic activation of environmental stress response or heat shock response pathways. No severe defects were observed in the degradation of misfolded proteins, using model misfolded substrates of endoplasmic reticulum-associated degradation or cytosolic quality control pathways, and protein biosynthesis capacity was not impaired.ConclusionsWe show that yeast strains of some karyotypes in the genetic background studied here can tolerate the large aneuploidy-associated burden to the proteostasis machinery without genetic changes, dosage compensation, or activation of canonical stress response pathways. We suggest that proteotoxic stress, while common, is not always an obligate consequence of aneuploidy, but rather certain karyotypes and genetic backgrounds may be able to tolerate the excess protein burden placed on the protein homeostasis machinery. This may help clarify how cancer cells are paradoxically both highly aneuploid and highly proliferative at the same time.

Project description:Aneuploidy severely alters cell physiology and is widespread in cancers and other pathologies. In model cell lines, aneuploidy impairs proliferation, leads to proteotoxic as well as replication stress and triggers conserved transcriptome and proteome changes. In this study we analysed for the first time miRNAs and demonstrate that their expression is altered in response to chromosome gain.

Project description:Leiomyosarcoma (LMS) is an aggressive cancer with few therapeutic options. LMS cells are more sensitive to proteotoxic stress compared to normal smooth muscle cells. We used small compound 2c to induce proteotoxic stress and compare the transcriptomic adaptations of immortalized human uterine smooth muscle cells (HUtSMC) and LMS cells SK-UT-1. We found that the expression of the heat shock proteins (HSP) gene family is upregulated with higher efficiency in normal cells. In contrast, upregulation of BH3-only proteins is higher in LMS cells. HSF1, the master regulator of HSP transcription, is sequestered into transcriptionally incompetent nuclear foci only in LMS cells, which explains the lower HSP upregulation. We also found that several compounds can enhance the cell death response to proteotoxic stress. Specifically, when low doses were used, an inhibitor of salt-inducible kinases (SIKs) and the inhibitor of IRE1, a key element of the unfolded protein response (UPR), support proteotoxic-induced cell death with strength in LMS cells and without effects on the survival of normal cells. Overall, our data provide an explanation for the higher susceptibility of LMS cells to proteotoxic stress and suggest a potential option for co-treatment strategies.

Project description:Although nearly ubiquitous in cancer, aneuploidy exerts detrimental effects on human cells. We recently demonstrated that aneuploid human cells exhibit impaired heat shock factor protein 1 (HSF1) and HSP90 function, suggesting a functional link between two recurring features of cancer cells: aneuploidy and proteotoxic stress. Further, our findings implicate HSF1 as a key factor in mitigating the effects of aneuploidy.
