Quantitative Proteomic Approach Reveals Altered Metabolic Pathways in Response to the Inhibition of Lysine Deacetylases in A549 Cells under Normoxia and Hypoxia.

ABSTRACT: Growing evidence is showing that acetylation plays an essential role in cancer, but studies on the impact of KDAC inhibition (KDACi) on the metabolic profile are still in their infancy. Here, we analyzed, by using an iTRAQ-based quantitative proteomics approach, the changes in the proteome of KRAS-mutated non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) A549 cells in response to trichostatin-A (TSA) and nicotinamide (NAM) under normoxia and hypoxia. Part of this response was further validated by molecular and biochemical analyses and correlated with the proliferation rates, apoptotic cell death, and activation of ROS scavenging mechanisms in opposition to the ROS production. Despite the differences among the KDAC inhibitors, up-regulation of glycolysis, TCA cycle, oxidative phosphorylation and fatty acid synthesis emerged as a common metabolic response underlying KDACi. We also observed that some of the KDACi effects at metabolic levels are enhanced under hypoxia. Furthermore, we used a drug repositioning machine learning approach to list candidate metabolic therapeutic agents for KRAS mutated NSCLC. Together, these results allow us to better understand the metabolic regulations underlying KDACi in NSCLC, taking into account the microenvironment of tumors related to hypoxia, and bring new insights for the future rational design of new therapies.

Project description:ObjectiveProinflammatory cytokine interleukin 17 (IL-17) is involved in ventricular remodeling, mainly of the left ventricle. This study was designed to explore the role of IL-17 played in the pathogenesis of right ventricular hypertrophy (RVH), aiming to provide a novel treatment target or diagnostic biomarker options for improving the care of RVH patients.MethodsC57BL/6 mice were maintained in 10% O2 chamber or room air for four weeks. Right ventricular hypertrophy index (RVHI), RV/body weight ratio, pulmonary arteriolar remodeling determined by percent media thickness (%MT), and the cardiomyocyte diameter of RV were evaluated. Mice were treated with exogenous recombinant mouse IL-17 (rmIL-17, 1 μg per dose twice a week) for four weeks. H9c2 cardiomyocytes were cultured and treated with IL-17 (10 ng/mL) and STAT3 inhibitor (10 ng/mL) either under normoxia (21% O2, 5% CO2, 74% N2) or under hypoxia (3% O2, 5% CO2, 92% N2). Cardiomyocyte viability was assessed by Cell counting kit 8 (CCK-8) assay. The mRNA level was detected by RT-PCR, where as the protein expression was measured by Western blot, immunohistochemistry, and immunofluorescent analyses.ResultsIn vivo experiments showed that IL-17 did not affect the pulmonary artery under normoxia, after treatment with rmIL-17, %MT was not changed, while RVHI and the RV/body weight ratio were increased, indicating that IL-17 directly induced right ventricular hypertrophy. In a time-course study, the mice were exposed to hypoxia for 0, 1, 2, 3, 4 weeks, respectively. We found that the expression of IL-17 was gradually upregulated in RV tissue in a time-dependent manner after one week of hypoxia exposure, especially at the third and fourth week. Cardiomyocyte hypertrophy and apoptosis were observed after the exposure of the mice to hypoxia for four weeks, rmIL-17 further aggravated the hypoxia-induced cardiomyocyte hypertrophy and apoptosis. The expression of p-STAT3 in the IL-17-deficient mice was lower than in the wild-type mice. In vitro, IL-17 inhibited cardiomyocyte viability and induced cardiomyocyte apoptosis via STAT3 under both normoxic and hypoxic conditions.ConclusionsThese findings support a role for IL-17 as a mediator in the pathogenesis RVH, which might be considered as a potential novel anti-inflammation therapeutic strategy or diagnostic biomarker for RVH.

Project description:Due to an increasing problem of drug resistance among almost all parasites species ranging from protists to worms, there is an urgent need to explore new drug targets and their inhibitors to provide new and effective parasitic therapeutics. In this regard, there is growing interest in exploring known drug leads of human epigenetic enzymes as potential starting points to develop novel treatments for parasitic diseases. This approach of repurposing (starting with validated targets and inhibitors) is quite attractive since it has the potential to reduce the expense of drug development and accelerate the process of developing novel drug candidates for parasite control. Lysine deacetylases (KDACs) are among the most studied epigenetic drug targets of humans, and a broad range of small-molecule inhibitors for these enzymes have been reported. In this work, we identify the KDAC protein families in representative species across important classes of parasites, screen a compound library of 23 hydroxamate- or benzamide-based small molecules KDAC inhibitors, and report their activities against a range of parasitic species, including the pathogen of malaria (Plasmodium falciparum), kinetoplastids (Trypanosoma brucei and Leishmania donovani), and nematodes (Brugia malayi, Dirofilaria immitis and Haemonchus contortus). Compound activity against parasites is compared to that observed against the mammalian cell line (L929 mouse fibroblast) in order to determine potential parasite-versus-host selectivity). The compounds showed nanomolar to sub-nanomolar potency against various parasites, and some selectivity was observed within the small panel of compounds tested. The possible binding modes of the active compounds at the different protein target sites within different species were explored by docking to homology models to help guide the discovery of more selective, parasite-specific inhibitors. This current work supports previous studies that explored the use of KDAC inhibitors in targeting Plasmodium to develop new anti-malarial treatments, and also pioneers experiments with these KDAC inhibitors as potential new anthelminthics. The selectivity observed begins to address the challenges of targeting specific parasitic diseases while limiting host toxicity.

Project description:ATP synthase inhibitory factor subunit 1 (IF1) is an inhibitory subunit of mitochondrial ATP synthase, playing a crucial role in regulating mitochondrial respiration and energetics. It is well-established that IF1 interacts with the F1 sector of ATP synthase to inhibit the reversal rotation and, thus, ATP hydrolysis. Recent evidence supports that IF1 also inhibits forward rotation or the ATP synthesis activity. Adding to the complexity, IF1 may also facilitate mitophagy and cristae formation. The implications of these complex actions of IF1 for cellular function remain obscure. In the present study, we found that IF1 expression was markedly upregulated in hypoxic MEFs relative to normoxic MEFs. We investigate how IF1 affects cellular growth and function in cultured mouse embryonic fibroblasts derived from mouse lines with systemic IF1 overexpression and knockout under normoxia and hypoxia. Cell survival and proliferation analyses revealed that IF1 overexpression exerted limited effects on cellular viability but substantially increased proliferation under normoxia, whereas it facilitated both cellular viability and proliferation under hypoxia. The absence of IF1 may have a pro-survival effect but not a proliferative one in both normoxia and hypoxia. Cellular bioenergetic analyses revealed that IF1 suppressed cellular respiration when subjected to normoxia and was even more pronounced when subjected to hypoxia with increased mitochondrial ATP production. In contrast, IF1 knockout MEFs showed markedly increased cellular respiration under both normoxia and hypoxia with little change in mitochondrial ATP. Glycolytic stress assay revealed that IF1 overexpression modestly increased glycolysis in normoxia and hypoxia. Interestingly, the absence of IF1 in MEFs led to substantial increases in glycolysis. Therefore, we conclude that IF1 mainly inhibits cellular respiration and enhances cellular glycolysis to preserve mitochondrial ATP. On the other hand, IF1 deletion can significantly facilitate cellular respiration and glycolysis without leading to mitochondrial ATP deficit.
