Project description:This work investigated the molecular mechanisms unterlying the previously reported anticancer activity of the usnic acid isoxazole derivative, named 2b. Using RNA-seq technology transcriptoms of MCF-7 breast cancer cells treated with vehicle or 2b for two diffrent time periods were compared. Among differentially expressed genes, components of the protein processing in endoplasmic reticulum pathway were the most significantly upregulated by 2b.

Project description:The unfolded protein response (UPR), induced by endoplasmic reticulum (ER) stress, regulates the expression of factors that restore protein folding homeostasis. However, in the liver and kidney, ER stress also leads to lipid accumulation, accompanied at least in the liver by transcriptional suppression of metabolic genes. The mechanisms of this accumulation are unclear, including which pathways contribute to the phenotype in each organ. We combined gene expression profiling, biochemical assays, and untargeted lipidomics to understand the basis of stress-dependent lipid accumulation, taking advantage of enhanced hepatic and renal steatosis in mice lacking the ER stress sensor ATF6α. We found that impaired fatty acid oxidation contributed to the early development of steatosis in the liver, but not the kidney; while anorexia-induced lipolysis promoted late triglyceride and free fatty acid accumulation in both organs. These findings provide evidence for both direct and indirect regulation of peripheral metabolism by ER stress.

Project description:The shift in the energetic demands of proliferating cells during tumorigenesis requires extensive crosstalk between the cell cycle and metabolism. Beyond their role in cell proliferation, cell cycle regulators also modulate intracellular metabolism in normal tissues. However, in the context of cancer, where CDK4 is upregulated or stabilized, the metabolic role of CDK4 is barely understood. Here, using both genetic and pharmacological approaches, we sought to determine the metabolic role of CDK4 in triple-negative breast cancer (TNBC) cells. Unexpectedly, the deletion of CDK4 only modestly reduced TNBC cell proliferation and did not hinder tumor formation in vivo. Furthermore, proapoptotic stimuli failed to induce appropriate cell death in TNBC cells upon CDK4 depletion or long-term CDK4/6 inhibitor treatment. Mechanistically, CDK4 enhances mitochondria-endoplasmic reticulum contact (MERC) formation, thereby promoting mitochondrial fission and ER-mitochondrial calcium signaling. Phosphoproteomic analysis also revealed a role for CDK4 in regulating PKA activity at MERCs to sustain ER-mitochondrial calcium signaling. Such CDK4-mediated mitochondrial calcium signaling is required for the metabolic flexibility of TNBC cells. Taken together, these results demonstrate that CDK4 inhibition leads to cell death resistance by inhibiting mitochondrial apoptosis and functions through attenuated MERCs formation and ER-mitochondrial calcium signaling in TNBC. Overall, this study provides new insights into the mechanisms of TNBC resistance to CDK4/6i therapy and paves the way to explore potential synergistic therapeutic targeting of MERCs-associated metabolic shifts.

Project description:Our microbiota affects numerous processes involved in development, health, and the response to chemotherapeutic drugs. Tamoxifen is a selective estrogen receptor (ER) modulator that is used to treat ER positive breast cancer, but that at high doses kills both ER positive and ER-negative breast cancer cells. We recapitulate this off-target effect in Caenorhabditis elegans, which does not have an ER ortholog. We find that different bacteria dramatically modulate tamoxifen toxicity in C. elegans, with a three-order of magnitude difference between animals fed Escherichia coli, Comamonas aquatica, and Bacillus subtilis. Remarkably, host fatty acid (FA) biosynthesis mitigates tamoxifen toxicity, and different bacteria provide the animal with different FAs, resulting in distinct FA profiles. Surprisingly these bacteria modulate tamoxifen toxicity by different death mechanisms, some of which are modulated by FA supplementation and others by antioxidants. Together, this work reveals a complex interplay between bacteria, FA metabolism and tamoxifen toxicity that may provide a blueprint for similar studies in more complex mammals.

Project description:Sel1L is an adaptor protein for the E3 ligase Hrd1 involved in endoplasmic reticulum-associated degradation (ERAD). Its physiological importance in mammalian ERAD, however, remains to be established. Here, using the inducible Sel1L knockout mouse and cell models, we provide the first in vivo evidence that Sel1L is indispensable for Hrd1 stability, ER homeostasis and survival. Acute loss of Sel1L leads to premature death in adult mice within 3 weeks with profound pancreatic atrophy. Contrary to current belief, our data show that mammalian Sel1L is required for Hrd1 stability and ERAD function both in vitro and in vivo. Sel1L deficiency disturbs ER homeostasis, activates ER stress, attenuates translation and promotes cell death. Serendipitously, using biochemical approach coupled with mass spectrometry, we found that Sel1L deficiency causes the aggregation of both small and large ribosomal subunits. Thus, Sel1L is an indispensable component of mammalian ERAD and ER homeostasis, which is essential for protein translation, pancreatic function, cellular and organismal survival. Pancreas tissue of wild type and inducible Sel1L knockout mice were subjected to gene expression analysis.

Project description:Sigma-2-ligands (S2L) are characterized by high-affinity interaction with their cognate sigma-2 receptor, overexpressed in rapidly proliferating tumor cells. As such, S2L were developed as imaging probes (ISO1) or as cancer therapeutics, alone (SV119 [C6], SW43 [C10]) and as delivery vehicles for cytotoxic drug cargoes following chemical conjugation (C6-Erastin, C10-SMAC). However, the exact mechanism of S2L-induced cytotoxicity remains to be fully elucidated. A series of high-affinity S2L were evaluated regarding their cytotoxicity profiles across pancreatic, ovarian, and synovial cancer cell lines. While C6 and C10 displayed distinct cytotoxicities (extended aliphatic side chains), C0 (no aliphatic side chain) and ISO1 (structurally unrelated) were essentially non-toxic, enabling us to investigate the unique mechanism of S2L cytotoxicity. Confocal microscopy and lipidomics analysis in cellular and mouse models revealed that C10 induced an increase in intralysosomal free cholesterol, a corresponding increase in cholesterol esters, suggestive of unaltered intracellular cholesterol trafficking and processing, and cytotoxicity due to cholesterol excess, a phenomenon that contrasts the effects of inhibiting NPC1 function. RNA-sequencing revealed that gene clusters involved in cholesterol homeostasis and ER stress response were activated exclusively by cytotoxic S2L. ER stress markers were confirmed on qPCR, and ER stress modulators inhibited or enhanced cytotoxicity of C10 confirming the involvement of ER stress response in the cytotoxicity of S2L. Moreover, C10 increased sterol regulatory element-binding protein 2 (SREBP2) and low-density lipoprotein receptor (LDLR) which were also confirmed with qPCR and at the protein level and were found to be a pro-survival mechanism activated by ER stress response. Moreover, inhibiting the processes downstream this adaptive response with simvastatin resulted in synergistic treatment outcomes when combined with C10 in vitro and in vivo. Of note, the conjugates retained the S2L-mediated cholesterol phenotype of their parental ligands, which suggests that disrupting cholesterol homeostasis might contribute to the overall cytotoxicity of the drug conjugates. Furthermore, these phenomena were seen exclusively with cytotoxic S2L. Based on these findings, we conclude that S2L-mediated cell death is due to free cholesterol accumulation that leads to ER stress. Consequently, the cytotoxic profiles of S2L drug conjugates are proposed to be enhanced via concurrent ER stress inducers or simvastatin, strategies that could be instrumental on the path toward tumor eradication.

Project description:We tracked the gene expression events following treatment of maize seedlings with the endoplasmic reticulum (ER) stress agent tunicamycin. ER stress elicits the unfolded protein response (UPR) and when plants are faced with persistent stress, the UPR transitions from an adaptive or cell survival phase to programmed cell death.
