High-fat diet activated fatty acid oxidation mediates intestinal stemness and tumorigenicity

ABSTRACT: Obesity is an established risk factor for cancer in many tissues such as the gastrointestinal tract. In the mammalian intestine, a pro-obesity high fat diet (HFD) promotes tumorigenesis in part by enhancing intestinal stem cell (ISC) numbers, proliferation and function. Although Ppar (Peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor) nuclear receptor activity has been proposed to mediate some of these effects in HFD ISCs, the exact role that different Ppar family members play in this process is unclear. Here, we find that in loss-of-function in vivo models, both Ppar family members alpha and delta contribute to the HFD response in ISCs. Mechanistically, both PPARs do so by robustly inducing a downstream fatty acid oxidation (FAO) metabolic program. Notably, pharmacologic and genetic disruption of CPT1a (the rate limiting enzyme of FAO) blunts the HFD phenotype in ISCs. Furthermore, just as HFD ISCs depend on CPT1a-mediated FAO, inhibition of CPT1a dampens the pro-tumorigenic consequences of a HFD on early tumor incidence and progression in the intestine. These findings demonstrate that inhibition of a HFD activated FAO program creates a therapeutic opportunity to counter the effects of a HFD on ISCs and intestinal tumorigenesis.

HFD activated FAO mediates intestinal stemness and tumorgenicity II

High-fat diet enhances stemness and tumorigenicity of intestinal progenitors

Project description:Little is known about how pro-obesity diets regulate tissue stem and progenitor cell function. Here we find that high fat diet (HFD)-induced obesity augments the numbers and function of Lgr5+ intestinal stem cells (ISCs) of the mammalian intestine. Like HFD, ex vivo treatment of intestinal organoid cultures with palmitic acid (PA), a constituent of the HFD, enhances the self-renewal potential of these organoid bodies. Mechanistically, HFD induces a robust peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor delta (PPAR-delta signature in intestinal stem and progenitor cells and pharmacologic activation of PPAR-delta recapitulates the effects that HFD has on these cells. Interestingly, HFD- and agonist-activated PPAR-delta signaling endows organoid-initiating capacity to non-stem cells and enforced PPAR-delta signaling permits these non-stem cells to form in vivo tumors upon loss of the tumor suppressor Apc. These findings highlight how diet-modulated PPAR-delta activation alters not only the function of intestinal stem and progenitor cells but also their capacity to initiate tumors. mRNA profiles of intestinal stem cells (GFP-Hi) and progenitors (GFP-Low) from WT or HFD fed mice were generated by deep sequencing using HiSeq 2000.

Dietary suppression of MHC-II expression in intestinal epithelial cells enhances intestinal tumorigenesis

Project description:Little is known about how interactions between diet, intestinal stem cells (ISCs) and immune cells impact the early steps of intestinal tumorigenesis. Here, we show that a high fat diet (HFD) reduces the expression of the major histocompatibility complex II (MHC-II) genes in intestinal epithelial cells including ISCs. This decline in epithelial MHC-II expression in a HFD correlates with reduced diversity of the intestinal microbiome and is recapitulated in antibiotic treated and germ-free mice on a control diet. Mechanistically, pattern recognition receptor (PRR) and IFN g signaling regulate epithelial MHC-II expression where genetic ablation of these signaling pathways dampen MHC-II epithelial expression. Interestingly, upon loss of the tumor suppressor gene Apc in a HFD, MHC-II- ISCs harbor greater in vivo tumor-initiating capacity than their MHC-II+ counterparts when transplanted into immune-component hosts but not immune-deficient hosts, thus implicating a role for epithelial MHC-II-mediated immune surveillance in suppressing tumorigenesis. Finally, ISC-specific genetic ablation of MHC-II in engineered Apc-mediated intestinal tumor models increases tumor burden in a cell autonomous manner. These findings highlight how a HFD perturbs a microbiome – stem cell – immune cell crosstalk in the intestine and contributes to tumor initiation through the dampening of MHC-II expression in pre-malignant ISCs.

H3K27Ac ChIP-Seq in Prdm16 KO duodenal crypts

Project description:The adult intestinal epithelium is maintained by a continuous replacement of differentiated cells from stem cells. Previous studies suggest that cellular metabolic pathways regulate intestinal stem cell activity and differentiation. However, little is known about the cell-intrinsic factors that control these metabolic programs. Here, we identify the transcription factor PRDM16 as a critical regulator of intestinal metabolic programing and stem cell differentiation. Acute deletion of Prdm16 in adult mice causes severe intestinal wasting, apoptosis, and an accumulation of poorly differentiated cells in the crypt. Prdm16-deficient crypts display decreased expression levels of fatty acid oxidation (FAO) genes and reduced rates of FAO. PRDM16 binds, along with its protein partners PPAR? and PPAR?, to the promoter and enhancer regions of many FAO genes. The loss of Prdm16 or inhibition of FAO impaired the transition of intestinal stem cells into transit amplifying cells. Notably, PRDM16 expression is highest in the duodenum and declines distally along the intestine. This gradient of PRDM16 expression controls the region-specific expression of the FAO program and underlies the differential reliance of region-specific stem cells on FAO. Altogether, this study establishes PRDM16 as a regional-specific regulator of metabolism and stem cell differentiation in the intestine.

High-fat diet-mediated dysbiosis promotes intestinal carcinogenesis independent of obesity

Project description:Several aspects common to a Western lifestyle, including obesity and decreased physical activity, are known risks for gastrointestinal cancers. There is an increasing amount of evidence suggesting that diet profoundly affects the composition of the intestinal microbiota. Moreover, there is now unequivocal evidence linking a dysbiotic gut to cancer development. Yet, the mechanisms through which high-fat diet (HFD)-mediated changes in the microbial community impact the severity of tumorigenesis in the gut, remain to be determined. Here we demonstrate that HFD promotes tumor progression in the small intestine of genetically susceptible K-rasG12Dint mice independent of obesity. HFD consumption in conjunction with K-Ras mutation mediates a shift in the composition of gut microbiota, which is associated with a decrease in Paneth cell antimicrobial host defense that compromises dendritic cell (DC) recruitment and MHC-II presentation in the gut-associated lymphoid tissues (GALTs). DC recruitment in GALTs can be normalized, and tumor progression attenuated completely, when K-rasG12Dint mice are supplemented with the short-chain fatty acid butyrate, a bacterial fermentation endproduct. Importantly, Myd88-deficiency completely blocks tumor progression in K-rasG12Dint mice. Transfer of fecal samples from diseased donors into healthy adult K-rasG12Dint mice is sufficient to transmit disease in the absence of HFD. Furthermore, treatment with antibiotics completely blocks HFD-induced tumor progression, suggesting a pivotal role for distinct microbial shifts in aggravating disease in the small intestine. Collectively, these data underscore the importance of the reciprocal interaction between host and environmental factors in selecting intestinal microbiota that favor carcinogenesis, and suggest tumorigenesis may be transmissible among genetically predisposed individuals. 3 mice each for each treatment.

Ribosome impairment regulates intestinal stem cell identity via ZAKa activation.

Project description:The small intestine is a rapidly proliferating organ that is maintained by a small population of Lgr5-expressing intestinal stem cells (ISCs). However, several Lgr5-negative ISC populations have been identified, and this remarkable plasticity allows the intestine to rapidly respond to both the local environment and to damage. The mediators of such plasticity are still largely unknown. Using intestinal organoids and mouse models, we show that upon ribosome impairment (driven by Rptor deletion, amino acid starvation, or low dose cyclohexamide treatment) ISCs gain an Lgr5-negative, fetal-like identity. This is accompanied by a rewiring of metabolism. Our findings suggest that the ribosome can act as a sensor of nutrient availability, allowing ISCs to respond to the local nutrient environment. Mechanistically, we show that this phenotype requires the activation of ZAKɑ, which in turn activates YAP, via SRC. Together, our data reveals a central role for ribosome dynamics in intestinal stem cells, and identify the activation of ZAKɑ as a critical mediator of stem cell identity.

FDXR Drives Primary and Endocrine Resistant Tumor Cell Growth in ER+ Breast Cancer via CPT1A-Mediated Fatty Acid Oxidation

Project description:The majority of breast cancers (BCs) harboring estrogen receptor (ER) have shown endocrine resistance. Our previous study has demonstrated that ferredoxin reductase (FDXR) promotes mitochondrial function and ER+ breast tumorigenesis. Here, integrative analyses of targeted metabolomics assay and gene expression profiling show that FDXR potentiates fatty acid oxidation (FAO) through positive regulation of carnitine palmitoyltransferase 1A (CPT1A) expression. Treatment with ER antagonist (tamoxifen) or degrader (fulvestrant) leads to increased expression of FDXR and CPT1A. In line with this finding, we find that FDXR-CPT1A-FAO axis is required for primary and endocrine resistant breast cancer cell growth. Therapeutically,combining endocrine therapy with FAO inhibitor synergistically reduces primary and endocrine resistant breast cancer cell growth, thus providing a potential combinatory treatment for ER+ breast cancer. We used microarrays to be able to elucidate to some extent the gene regulatory mechanisms of FDXR regulating breast cancer metabolism.

Quiescent endothelial cells upregulate fatty acid β-oxidation for vasculoprotection via redox homeostasis

Project description:Little is known about metabolic changes accompanying endothelial cell (EC) quiescence. Nonetheless, when dysfunctional, quiescent ECs (QECs) contribute to multiple cardiovascular diseases. ECs need fatty acid β-oxidation (FAO) for proliferation. Surprisingly, we now report that QECs are not hypo-metabolic, but upregulate FAO >3-fold higher than proliferating ECs (PECs), not to support biomass or energy production, but to sustain the TCA cycle for redox homeostasis through NADPH production. Hence, inhibition of FAO-controlling CPT1A promotes EC dysfunction (anti-fibrinolysis, leukocyte infiltration, barrier disruption) by increasing oxidative stress in CPT1AΔEC mice with endothelial CPT1A loss. Mechanistically, Notch1 orchestrates the use of FAO for redox balance in QECs. Supplementation of acetate (metabolized to acetyl-CoA) induces vasculoprotection against oxidative stress and EC dysfunction in CPT1AΔEC mice, possibly creating therapeutic opportunities. Thus, ECs use FAO for vasculoprotection against their high oxygen (oxidative stress-prone) milieu, and for different metabolic purposes dependent on their proliferation versus quiescence status.
