Project description:Isocitrate dehydrogenase (IDH) mutations are common genetic abnormalities in lower grade gliomas. The neomorphic enzyme activity of IDH mutants leads to tumor formation through epigenetic alteration, dysfunction of dioxygenases, and metabolic reprogramming. However, it remains elusive as to how IDH mutants regulate the pathways associated with oncogenic transformation and aggressiveness. In the present study, by using unbiased transcriptomic profiling, we showed that IDH1 mutations result in substantial changes in the gene sets that govern cellular motility, chemotaxis, and invasion. Mechanistically, rapamycin-insensitive companion of mammalian target of rapamycin (Rictor)/Ras-related C3 botulinum toxin substrate 1 (Rac1) signaling plays an essential role in the motility and proliferation of IDH1-mutated cells by prompting cytoskeleton reorganization, lamellipodia formation, and enhanced endocytosis. Targeting the Rictor/Rac1 pathway suppresses IDH1-mutated cells by limiting endocytosis and cell proliferation. Overall, our findings indicate a novel metabolic reprogramming mechanism of IDH1-mutated cells by exploiting metabolites from the extracellular milieu. Targeting the Rictor/Rac1 pathway could be an alternative therapeutic strategy for IDH1-mutated malignancies.

Project description:The mTOR complex 2 (mTORC2) has been implicated as a key regulator of glioblastoma cell migration. However, the roles of mTORC2 in the migrational control process have not been entirely elucidated. Here we elaborate that mTORC2 is crucial for GBM cell motility. Inhibition of mTORC2 resulted in impaired cell movement, affecting microfilaments and microtubules' functions. Later, we quantitatively characterized the mTORC2 interactome using affinity-purification mass spectrometry (AP-MS) in glioblastoma. We demonstrated that changes in cell migration ability alter mTORC2-associated proteins. These interacting proteins help determine the capability of glioma cell movement.

Project description:Oncogenic KrasG12D, a driver mutation of pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC), induces neoplastic transformation of acinar cells through acinar-to-ductal metaplasia (ADM). Here, we show that both functional complexes of mTOR (mechanistic target of rapamycin kinase, mTORC1 and mTORC2) are specifically activated in ADM. Murine models uncover that mTORC1 and mTORC2 cooperate to promote KrasG12D-driven ADM development. Proteomic analyses identify Arp2/3 complex, an actin nucleator, as the common downstream effector: mTORC1 is responsible for the protein synthesis of Rac1 and Arp3 while mTORC2 promotes the Arp2/3 complex activity via Akt/Rac1 signalling. Genetic ablation of Arp2/3 complex completely arrests KrasG12D-driven ADM development. The Arp2/3 complex-mediated y-branching of actin network promotes the basolateral spread of filamentous actin, which is indispensable for acinar cells-initiated carcinogenesis. Induced by oncogenic KrasG12D, ADM is a metaplastic phenotype of acinar cells that requires extensive actin rearrangements. mTORC1 and mTORC2, downstream targets of KrasG12D, have well-established oncogenic functions in PDAC development. The actin-related protein 2/3 (Arp2/3) complex is the first identified actin nucleator. Regarded as textbook knowledge, it is activated by EGFR/Rac1 signalling to promote the polymerisation of branched actin filaments from pre-existing filaments in numerous biological contexts. Hereby, we identify that mTORC1 and mTORC2 attain a dual, yet non-redundant, regulatory role in promoting Arp2/3 complex function, which is responsible for generating basolateral filamentous actin in ADM. Thus, the role of Arp2/3 complex fills up the missing gap between putative oncogenic signals and actin dynamics underlying PDAC initiation.

Project description:Genome wide DNA methylation profiling of control and mTORC2-suppressed glioblastoma cells (U87-EGFRvIII cells). The Illumina Infinium HumanMethylation EPIC BeadChip Array was used to obtain DNA methylation profiles with 865,918 probes in glioblastoma cell line samples. Samples included 2 control U87-MG cells without mTORC2 suppresion, and mTORC2-knockdown U87-MG cells with lentivirus-mediated suppression of mTORC2.

Project description:The therapeutic potential of neurotrophic factors has been hampered by their inability to achieve adequate tissue penetration. Brain blood vessels, however, could be an alternative target for neuro-salvage therapies by virtue of their close proximity to neurons. Here we show that hemizygous deletion of Rac1 in mouse endothelial cells (ECs) attenuates brain injury and edema following focal cerebral ischemia. To explore the mechanisms whereby decrease of Rac1 in ECs provide neuroprotection, ECs were derived from Rac1+/+ and Rac1+/- mice. Microarray analysis was performed to determine the differential gene expression between Rac1+/+ and Rac1+/- ECs. Rac1+/+ and Rac1+/- ECs were cultured to subconfluence. Total RNA was extracted and reverse transcribed. Rac1+/+ (n = 2) and Rac1+/- (n = 2) EC cDNAs were labeled with Cy3 and Cy5, respectively, and equimolar mixtures of labeled Rac1+/+ and Rac1+/- probes were hybridized to 2 slides (sample #21648, #21649). Additionally, Rac1+/+ (n = 2) and Rac1+/- (n=2) EC cDNAs labeled with Cy5 and Cy3 (dye-swapping) were hybridized to 2 slides (sample #21650, #21651). Comparison of signal intensities between Rac1+/+ (channel 2) and Rac1+/- (channel 1) was conducted on each slide (sample), and the ratio of intensities from 4 slides were statistically assessed for each gene feature to investigate differential gene expression.

Project description:Gliomas harboring mutations in isocitrate dehydrogenase 1/2 (IDH1/2) have the CpG island methylator phenotype (CIMP) and significantly longer patient survival time than wild-type IDH1/2 tumors. Although there are many factors underlying the differences in survival between these two tumor types, immune-related differences in cell content are potentially important contributors. In order to investigate the role of IDH mutations in immune response, we created a syngeneic pair mouse model for mutated IDH1 (mutIDH1) and wild-type IDH1 (wtIDH1) gliomas and demonstrated that muIDH1 mice showed many molecular and clinical similarities to muIDH1 human gliomas, including a 100-fold higher concentration of 2-hydroxygluratate (2-HG), longer survival time, and higher CpG methylation compared to wtIDH1. Also, we showed that IDH1 mutations caused downregulation of leukocyte chemotaxis, resulting in repression of the tumor-associated immune system. Given that significant infiltration of immune cells such as macrophages, microglia, monocytes, and neutrophils is linked to poor prognosis in many cancer types, these reduced immune infiltrates in muIDH1 glioma tumors may contribute in part to the differences in aggressiveness of the two glioma types.
