Progestin receptor promotes cell macropinocytosis through CDC42 in pancreatic cancer

Project description:Endocrine receptors play an essential role in tumor metabolic reprogramming and represent a potential therapeutic approach in pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC). PDAC is characterized by a nutrient-deprived microenvironment, and to support their energetic needs, they can internalize extracellular proteins via macropinocytosis. In this study, we found that progesterone receptor (PGR), a steroid-responsive nuclear receptor, has a higher expression in PDAC tissues from patients and transgenic LSL-KrasG12D/+; LSL-Trp53R172H/+; PDX1-cre (KPC) mice. Moreover, PGR knockdown restrained PDAC cell survival and tumor growth both in vitro and in vivo. Genetic and pharmacological PGR inhibition resulted in dramatically macropinocytosis impairment in PDAC cells and subcutaneous tumor models, which indicates involvement of this receptor in macropinocytosis regulation. Mechanistically, PGR deficiency caused a subsequently decreased expression of CDC42, a key regulator in macropinocytosis. These data deepen our understanding of how endocrine system influences tumor progression via non-classical pathway and provide a novel therapeutic option for patients with PDAC.

Yap/Taz promote the scavenging of extracellular nutrients through macropinocytosis [ATAC-Seq]

Project description:The uptake of macromolecules and cellular debris through macropinocytosis has emerged as an important nutrient acquisition strategy of cancer cells. Genetic alterations commonly found in human cancers (e.g. mutations in KRAS or loss of PTEN) have been shown to increase macropinocytosis. To identify additional effectors that enable cell growth dependent on the uptake of extracellular proteins, pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDA) cells were selected for growth in medium where extracellular albumin was the obligate source of the essential amino acid leucine. Analysis of global changes in chromatin availability and gene expression revealed that PDA cells selected under these conditions exhibited elevated activity of the transcriptional activators Yap/Taz. Knockout of Yap/Taz prevented growth of PDA cells in leucine-deficient medium, but not in complete medium. Furthermore, constitutively active forms of Yap or Taz were sufficient to stimulate macropinocytosis of extracellular protein. Together, these studies suggest that the Hippo pathway effectors Yap and Taz are important transcriptional regulators of endocytic nutrient uptake.

An oscillatory transcription factor complex regulates adaptive changes in macropinocytosis during the growth-to-development transition

Project description:Macropinocytosis is an evolutionarily conserved endocytic pathway that mediates non-selective bulk uptake of extracellular fluid. It is the major route by which axenic Dictyostelium cells obtain nutrients and has emerged as a nutrient-scavenging pathway for mammalian cells. How cells adjust macropinocytic activity in various physiological or developmental contexts is an important question that remains largely unanswered. We discovered that, in Dictyostelium cells, the transcription factors Hbx5 and MybG form a functional complex in the nucleus to maintain macropinocytic activity during the growth stage. In contrast, during starvation-induced multicellular development, the transcription factor complex undergoes nucleocytoplasmic shuttling in response to oscillatory cyclic adenosine 3',5'-monophosphate (cAMP) signals, which leads to increased cytoplasmic retention of the complex and progressive downregulation of macropinocytosis. Therefore, by coupling macropinocytosis-related gene expression to the cAMP oscillation system that facilitates long-range cell-cell communication, the dynamic translocation of the Hbx5-MybG complex orchestrates a population-level adjustment of macropinocytic activity to adapt to changing environmental conditions.

A molecularly distinct subset of glioblastoma requires serum-containing media to establish sustainable bona fide glioblastoma stem cell cultures

Project description:Glioblastoma (GBM) is the most frequent and deadly primary malignant brain tumor. Hallmarks are extensive intra- and inter-tumor heterogeneity and highly invasive growth, which provide great challenges for treatment. Efficient therapy is lacking for GBM and the majority of patients survive less than one year from diagnosis. GBM progression and recurrence is caused by treatment-resistant glioblastoma stem cells (GSCs). GSC cultures are considered important models to use in target identification and drug screening. The current state of the art method to isolate and maintain GSC cultures that faithfully mimic the primary tumor, is to use serum-free (SF) media conditions developed for neural stem cells (NSCs). Here we have investigated the outcome of explanting 230 consecutively collected GBM patient samples under both SF and standard, serum-containing media conditions. The establishment of maintainable SF cultures (SFCs) was most frequent, but for a subgroup of GBM specimens a viable culture could only be established in serum-containing media, called exclusive serum culture (ESC). ESCs expressed nestin and SOX2, and displayed all functional characteristics of GSCs, i.e. extended proliferation, sustained self-renewal and orthotopic tumor initiation. Once adapted to the in vitro milieu they were also sustainable in SF media. Molecular analyses showed that ESCs formed a discrete group that was most related to the mesenchymal GBM subtype. This distinct subgroup of GBM that had evaded modeling under SF conditions provide unique cell models of GBM intertumor heterogeneity.
