Project description:Cancer cells vary in their nutritional dependencies, thus characterization of nutrient demand of each tumor type is needed to uncover specific vulnerabilities. We demonstrate that MYC-driven liver tumors rely on increased tryptophan (Trp) uptake to grow. By following 13C-Trp in vivo-labeling, we found that Trp catabolism is reduced while its incorporation into proteins is increased in tumors. Trp deprivation prevents MYC-driven tumors from arising, as well as the growth of xenografted cells while minimally affecting normal cells. Trp starvation causes a reduction in the expression of growth-related and ribosome biogenesis genes while enhancing regulators of lipid metabolism, including PPAR, and enzymes involved in -oxidation and ketosis. Under Trp starvation, surviving cancer cells are reprogramed to utilize lipids; thus, providing a high-fat diet rescued the growth of tumors starved of Trp. We shows that Trp deprivation may be a powerful tool to treat liver tumors if dietary fat intake is low.

Project description:MYC-ON liver tissue of mice fed with control diet (samples 982225, 982226, 982227) or Trp-free diet (samples 982228, 982229, 982230). Samples 991671-3(wt) 991674-6 (myc) looked at the incorporation of 13C tryptophan into the samples.

Project description:The Hippo pathway is an important regulator of organ size and tumorigenesis. It is unclear, however, how Hippo signaling provides the cellular building blocks required for rapid growth. Here, we report that transgenic zebrafish expressing an activated form of the Hippo pathway effector Yap1 develop enlarged livers and are prone to liver tumor formation. Transcriptomic profiling reveals that Yap1 reprograms genes involved in glutamine metabolism. Analysis of gene expression in WT and lf:Yap transgenic zebrafish livers.

Project description:β-Adrenergic signaling is a core regulator of brown adipocyte function stimulating both lipolysis and transcription of thermogenic genes, thereby expanding the capacity for oxidative metabolism. Here we have used pharmacological inhibitors and a novel direct activator of lipolysis to acutely modulate the activity of lipases, thereby enabling us to uncover lipolysis-dependent signaling pathways downstream of β-adrenergic signaling in brown adipocytes. We show that induction of lipolysis leads to acute induction of several gene programs and is required for transcriptional regulation by β-adrenergic signals. Using machine-learning algorithms to infer causal transcription factors, we show that PPARs are key mediators of lipolysis-induced activation of genes involved in lipid metabolism and thermogenesis. Importantly, lipolysis also activates the unfolded protein response and regulates the core circadian transcriptional machinery independently of PPARs. Our results demonstrate that lipolysis generates important metabolic signals that exert profound pleiotropic effects on brown adipocyte transcription and function.

Project description:Eosinophilia–myalgia syndrome (EMS) is characterized by subacute onset of myalgias and peripheral eosinophilia, followed by chronic neuropathy and skin induration. The EMS epidemic in 1989 was linked to L-tryptophan consumption originating from a single source. Following the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) ban on the sale of L-tryptophan, the incidence of EMS declined rapidly. Moreover, no new cases have been published since the FDA ban was lifted in 2005. We report the clinical, histopathological and immunogenetic features of a new case of L-tryptophan-associated EMS along with evidence of activated transforming growth factor-ß and interleukin-4 signaling in the lesional skin. 6 samples were analyzed to include EMS patient and two replicates along with three normal controls
