Project description:Human cells require pH regulation to maintain physiological function, yet the molecular consequences of acidic environments remain incompletely understood. Here, we employ a gas-only bioreactor to control pH, oxygen, and temperature. Integrated Omics analyses reveal that acidic pH induces a glycolytic metabolic shift, suppresses proliferation, and promotes accumulation of lactate and oncometabolites alongside mitochondrial dysfunction. Acidic conditions increase reactive oxygen species (ROS) and activate inflammatory and immune pathways, leading to heteroplasmic enrichment of a pathogenic mitochondrial mutation. Acidic pH depletes intracellular NAD⁺, partly driven by PARP1 activation. Restoring NAD⁺ through nicotinamide mononucleotide (NMN) supplementation partially rescues proliferation and stress-associated transcription, while elevating NAD+ levels by NMN or PARP1 inhibition reverses heteroplasmic enrichment of mutant mitochondrial DNA. These findings underscore the role of pH homeostasis in coordinating metabolism, redox balance, and immune signaling, and identify NAD⁺ metabolism as a mechanistic link between acidic microenvironments, mitochondrial genome instability, and immune–metabolic remodeling.

Project description:Human cells require precise pH regulation to maintain optimal physiological functions, yet the molecular impacts of acidic environments remain underexplored due to the lack of technologies capable of precisely controlling the cell culture environment. Here, we employed a gas-only bioreactor to stably control pH, dissolved oxygen, and temperature during the culture of human B lymphoblastoid cells. Integrated transcriptomic, epigenomic, and metabolomic analysis revealed that acidic pH (6.8) induces a metabolic shift towards glycolysis, suppresses energy-intensive processes such as cell proliferation, and triggers intracellular accumulation of lactate and oncometabolites and mitochondrial dysfunction. This environment also elevates reactive oxygen species (ROS) and upregulates inflammatory and immune pathways, leading to heteroplasmic shifts in a pathogenic mitochondrial mutation. Mechanistically, acidic pH caused marked depletion of intracellular NAD⁺ driven in part by PARP1 activation, and restoration of NAD⁺ levels via nicotinamide mononucleotide supplementation or PARP1 inhibition partially rescued cellular proliferation, mitochondrial genomic integrity, and stress-associated transcriptional programs. These findings highlight the critical role of pH homeostasis in cellular metabolism and immune response, offering insights into the cellular adaptations to acidic stress, which may inform therapeutic strategies for conditions like cancer and metabolic disorders.

Project description:The conditions of the tumor microenvironment, such as hypoxia and nutrient starvation, play critical roles in cancer progression. However, the role of acidic extracellular pH in cancer progression is not studied as extensively as that of hypoxia. Here, we show that extracellular acidic pH (pH 6.8) triggered activation of sterol regulatory element-binding protein 2 (SREBP2) by stimulating nuclear translocation and promoter binding to its targets along with intracellular acidification. Interestingly, inhibition of SREBP2, but not SREBP1, suppressed the upregulation of low pH-induced cholesterol biosynthesis-related genes. Moreover, acyl-CoA synthetase short-chain family member 2 (ACSS2), a direct SREBP2 target, provided a growth advantage to cancer cells under acidic pH. Furthermore, acidic pH-responsive SREBP2 target genes were associated with reduced overall survival of cancer patients. Thus, our findings show that SREBP2 is a key transcriptional regulator of metabolic genes and progression of cancer cells, partly in response to extracellular acidification.

Project description:We aim to compare the genomic discrepancies across de novo Ph+ ALL, Ph+ MPAL and Ph+ AML, three diseases characterized by the occurrence of BCR-ABL1 transcripts but showing varied immunophenotypes. The data we are now submitting is the genomic copy number variants of these three groups. The following is the abstract with associated manuscript. The chromosome abnormality of Philadelphia (Ph) is typically seen in de novo acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL). It has also been identified in mixed phenotype acute leukemia (MPAL) and acute myeloid leukemia (AML) in the revisions to World Health Organization classification of myeloid neoplasms and actue leukemia. The discrepancies between these patients and potential mechanisms underlying differentiation fate of the leukemia cells remain poorly defined. We evaluated the clinical, genomic and transcriptomic features of Ph+ ALL, Ph+ MPAL and Ph+ AML by taking advantage of high-density genomic analysis, including next-generation sequencing array comparative genomic hybridization and gene expression profiling for transcriptomic analysis. Our results showed that the three cohorts demonstrated diversified clinical features. Ph+ ALL had the best response to induction therapy, with a complete remission (CR) rate of 93.5 and molecular response of 43.5%. Ph+ MPAL had a 90.0% CR rate but only 5.9% of molecular response. The CR rate of Ph+ AML was only 68.8%. Ph+ ALL was characterized by loss and mutations of B-cell development gene IKZF1 and PAX5, and frequent histone H3K36 trimethyltransferase SETD2 mutations. SETD2 mutations were detected in 11.3% of Ph+ ALL patients and predicted higher relapse rate. Ph+ MPAL and Ph+ AML featured high frequency of RUNX1 mutations. Further studies showed RUNX1-R177X mutation inhibited 32D cell differentiation induced by G-Csf, and cooperated with BCR-ABL1 to lead to myeloid differentiation arrest of human cord blood CD34+ cells. It is therefore presumed that these additional mutations work in synergy with BCR-ABL1 fusion gene to facilitate the development of Ph-positive acute leukemia in different immunophenotypic classifications.

Up-regulation of genes, mediated by OGR1, in response to extracellular acidification were enriched for inflammation, immune response, actin cytoskeleton and cell adhesion pathways. Microarray profiling was performed to compare global gene expression of Ogr1 KO and WT residential peritoneal macrophages in response to an acidic pH shift (pH 6.7, 24 h)

Project description:Mycobacterium tuberculosis (Mtb) survives host defenses by adapting to the environmental conditions during infection. A critical survival strategy involves pH homeostasis, mediated by complex signalling systems that regulate metabolic reprogramming and stress responses. While the lysine acetyltransferase Rv0998 is known to support Mtb hypoxia adaptation and metabolic flexibility, its role in acid stress remains unexplored. Here, we investigate how Rv0998 enables acid tolerance by analysing the transcriptomic profiles of the strains under physiological pH (pH 6.8) and acidic pH that mimics phagosomal environment (pH 5.7).

Project description:The opportunistic fungal pathogen Cryptococcus neoformans faces a wide range of environmental pH within the host, and adaptation to different pH conditions plays a critical role in their survival and pathogenesis. In the current study, how environmental pH influences antifungal susceptibility and iron uptake in C. neoformans was investigated. We found that acidic pH conditions significantly reduced antifungal susceptibility of C. neoformans to fluconazole. Moreover, our study revealed that iron acquisition in C. neoformans at acidic pH is independent of the high-affinity iron uptake system, and leads to increase of intracellular iron accumulation, increased ergosterol and heme levels, which may contribute to reduced fluconazole susceptibility of the fungus. Transcriptome analysis further elucidated the molecular mechanisms underlying the pH-dependent shift of iron uptake and antifungal susceptibility of C. neoformans. Our findings highlight the importance of environmental pH in physiology and pathogenesis of C. neoformans and provide insights into developing novel treatment for cryptococcosis.

Project description:Penicillium citrinum X9-4, which was isolated from infected grapes by our laboratory, produced the highest amount of OTA at pH 5 in culture media, and toxin-production was restrained under acidic environment (pH 3). It revealed the possible mechanism of OTA biosynthesis and metabolic regulation in P. citrinum by transcriptomics, and investigated the reason of OTA biosynthesis was restrained in P. citrinum when cultured under acidic environment.
