D2.0R mouse breast cancer cells cultured on stiff or soft ECM hydrogels

ABSTRACT: Metastatic breast cancer cells disseminate to organs with a soft microenvironment. Whether and how tissue mechanical properties influence their response to treatment remains unclear. Here we found that a soft ECM empowers redox homeostasis. Cells cultured on a soft ECM display increased peri-mitochondrial F-actin promoted by Spire1C and Arp2/3 nucleation factors, and increased DRP1- and MIEF1/2-dependent mitochondrial fission. Changes in mitochondrial dynamics lead to increased mtROS production and activate the NRF2 antioxidant transcriptional response, including increased cystine uptake and glutathione metabolism. This retrograde response endows cells with resistance to oxidative stress and ROS-dependent chemotherapy drugs. This is relevant in a mouse model of metastatic breast cancer cells dormant in the lung soft tissue, where inhibition of DRP1 and NRF2 restored cisplatin sensitivity and prevented disseminated cancer cell awakening. We propose that targeting this mitochondrial dynamics- and redox-based mechanotransduction pathway could open new avenues to prevent metastatic relapse.

Project description:Mitochondrial fusion and fission, which are strongly related to normal mitochondrial function, are referred to as mitochondrial dynamics. Mitochondrial fusion defects in the liver cause a non-alcoholic steatohepatitis-like phenotype and liver cancer. However, whether mitochondrial fission defect directly impair liver function and stimulate liver disease progression, too, is unclear. Dynamin-related protein 1 (DRP1) is a key factor controlling mitochondrial fission. We hypothesized that DRP1 defects are a causal factor directly involved in liver disease development and stimulate liver disease progression. Drp1 defects directly promoted endoplasmic reticulum (ER) stress, hepatocyte death, and subsequently induced infiltration of inflammatory macrophages. Drp1 deletion increased the expression of numerous genes involved in the immune response and DNA damage in Drp1LiKO mouse primary hepatocytes. We administered lipopolysaccharide (LPS) to liver-specific Drp1-knockout (Drp1LiKO) mice and observed an increased inflammatory cytokine expression in the liver and serum caused by exaggerated ER stress and enhanced inflammasome activation. This study indicates that Drp1 defect-induced mitochondrial dynamics dysfunction directly regulates the fate and function of hepatocytes and enhances LPS-induced acute liver injury in vivo.

Drp1 Controls Complex II assembly and Fatty Acid Oxidation by Sdhaf2 Action on Mitochondria

Project description:The Dynamin-related GTPase, Drp1 (encoded by Dnm1l) plays a central role in mitochondrial fission and is requisite for numerous cellular processes however its role in oxidative metabolism remains unclear. Herein, we show that among human tissues, skeletal muscle exhibits the strongest correlations with the DNM1L gene. Knockdown of Drp1 (Drp1-KD) promoted mitochondrial hyperfusion in the muscle of male mice. Reduced fatty acid oxidation and accumulation of intramyocellular lipids along with increased muscle succinate was observed in Drp1-KD muscle. Muscle Drp1-KD reduced Complex II assembly and activity as a consequence of diminished mitochondrial translocation of succinate dehydrogenase assembly factor 2 (Sdhaf2). Restoration of Sdhaf2, normalized Complex II activity and lipid oxidation in Drp1-KD myocytes. Drp1 appears critical in maintaining mitochondrial Complex II assembly and fatty acid oxidation, suggesting a mechanistic link between mitochondrial morphology and skeletal muscle lipid metabolism which is of clinical significance in combatting metabolic diseases.

NRF2 Is Required for Neonatal Beta-Cell Growth by Maintaining Redox Balance and Promoting Mitochondrial Biogenesis and Function

Project description:Due to the limited expression of several antioxidant enzymes, β-cells are highly vulnerable to high ROS levels, which can lead to the reduction of functional β-cell mass. During early postnatal ages, both human and rodent β-cells go through a burst of proliferation that quickly declines with age. Here we discovered that the expression of the master antioxidant regulator, Nrf2, is increased during this postnatal burst of β-cell proliferation in humans. Additionally, data from β-cell specific Nrf2 deletion in mice demonstrated that Nrf2 is required for β-cell proliferation, β-cell survival, β-cell identity and β-cell mass expansion at early stages of life. Daily administration of antioxidant NAC to newborn mice showed that Nrf2 mechanism of action strongly relies on maintaining normal redox balance. Interestingly, RNAseq of islets isolated from β-cell specific Nrf2 deleted mice suggests that Nrf2 regulates neonatal β-cell proliferation by promoting mitochondrial ATP synthesis. Our study highlights Nrf2 as an essential transcription factor for maintaining redox balance as well as mitochondrial biogenesis and function to support neonatal β-cell growth and for maintaining functional β-cell mass in adulthood under metabolic stress.

Affymetrix GeneChip Mouse Gene 1.0 arrays of RNA extracted from gastrocnemius muscle of 4 global Ppp3cb KO mice and 4 corresponding WT littermates, and 4 skeletal muscle-specific Ppp3r1Mlc1fCre KO and 4 corresponding WT littermates.

Project description:Global deficiency of catalytic subunit Ppp3cb, and tissue-specific ablation of regulatory subunit Ppp3r1 from skeletal muscle but not adipose tissue or liver led to protection from high-fat diet induced obesity and comorbid sequelæ. Ser637 hyperphosphorylation of dynamin-related protein 1 (Drp1) in skeletal muscle of calcineurin-deficient mice was associated with mitochondrial elongation into power-cable shaped filaments, increased mitochondrial respiration, but attenuated exercise performance. Mice used for microarray analyses were all male, and chronically exposed to HFD for at least 8 weeks.

Expression data from pulmonary arterial endothelial cells treated with siRNA control or siGLS in stiff or soft matrix

Project description:Dysregulation of vascular stiffness and cellular metabolism occur early in pulmonary hypertension (PH). Yet, the mechanisms by which biophysical properties of extracellular matrix relate to metabolic processes and downstream PH phenotypes remain undefined. In cultured endothelial and smooth muscle cells and confirmed in PH-diseased human samples, we found that ECM stiffening activates the mechanosensitive factors YAP/TAZ to increase glycolysis and induce glutaminase (GLS) expression and glutaminolysis. Glutaminolysis replenishes aspartate for anabolic biosynthesis, thus sustaining proliferation and migration within stiff ECM. In vitro GLS inhibition blocks aspartate production, consequently reprogramming entire cellular proliferative pathways, while aspartate restores proliferation. In a rat model in vivo, GLS inhibition prevents hemodynamic and histologic manifestations of PH. Thus, mechanical ECM stiffening sustains vascular cell growth and migration through YAP/TAZ-dependent glutaminolysis â a paradigm that advances our understanding of the connections of mechanical stimuli with dysregulated vascular metabolism and identifies new metabolic drug targets in PH. We used microarrays to decipher the global program of gene expression involved in response to matrix stiffening and determined the implication of glutaminolysis (GLS) in these process PAECs were transfected with an siRNA control (siNC) or a siRNA against GLS (siGLS) and cultivated on soft hydrogel (1kPa) or stiff hydrogel (50kPa). After 48h of transfection cells were lysate and RNA extract for hybridization on Affymetrix microarrays.

Nrf2 is a central regulator of the metabolic landscape in macrophages and finetunes their inflammatory response

Project description:To overcome oxidative, inflammatory, and metabolic stress, cells have evolved networks of cytoprotective proteins controlled by transcription factor nuclear factor erythroid 2 p45-related factor 2 (Nrf2) and its main negative regulator the Kelch-like ECH associated protein 1 (Keap1). Here, we used high-resolution mass-spectrometry to characterize the proteomes of macrophages with altered Nrf2 status. Our analysis revealed significant differences among the genotypes in cellular metabolism and redox homeostasis, which we validated with Seahorse flux and metabolomics, as well as in anti-viral immune pathways, translational regulation and mitosis. Nrf2 disruption significantly affected the proteome following lipopolysaccharide (LPS) stimulation, with alterations in redox, carbohydrate and lipid metabolism, and innate immunity predominantly. Of note, LPS stimulation was found to promote mitochondrial fusion in a process that was dependent on Nrf2. The Keap1 inhibitor, 4-octyl itaconate (4-OI), a derivative of the mitochondrial immunometabolite itaconate, remodeled the inflammatory macrophage proteome, increasing redox and suppressing anti-viral immune effectors in a Nrf2-dependent manner. These data suggest that Nrf2 activation facilitates metabolic reprogramming, mitochondrial adaptation, and finetunes the innate immune response in macrophages.

Project description:Mitochondria undergo continuous cycles of fission and fusion to promote inheritance, regulate quality control, and mitigate organelle stress. More recently, this process of mitochondrial dynamics has been demonstrated to be highly sensitive to nutrient supply, ultimately conferring bioenergetic plasticity to the organelle. However, whether regulators of mitochondrial dynamics play a causative role in nutrient regulation remains unclear. In this study, we generated a cellular loss-of-function model for dynamin-related protein 1 (DRP1), the primary regulator of outer membrane mitochondrial fission. Loss of DRP1 (shDRP1) resulted in extensive ultrastructural and functional remodeling of mitochondria, characterized by pleomorphic enlargement, increased electron density of the matrix, and defective NADH and succinate oxidation. Despite increased mitochondrial size and volume, shDRP1 cells exhibited reduced cellular glucose uptake and mitochondrial fatty acid oxidation. Untargeted transcriptomic profiling revealed severe downregulation of genes required for cellular and mitochondrial calcium homeostasis, inhibition of ATP-stimulated calcium flux, and impaired substrate oxidation stimulated by calcium levels. The insights obtained herein suggest that DRP1 regulates fatty acid oxidation by altering whole-cell and mitochondrial calcium dynamics. These findings are relevant to the targetability of mitochondrial fission and have clinical relevance in the identification of treatments for fission-related pathologies such as hereditary neuropathies, inborn errors in metabolism, cancer, and chronic diseases.

RNA sequencing analysis in ESCC cells with Drp1 overexpression or TFAM deficiency

Project description:Mitochondrial homeostasis is important for cell metabolism, growth, proliferation, and immune responses. The critical regulator for mitochondrial homeostasis, Drp1 and TFAM are frequently abnormal expression in many cancers and is closely implicated in tumorigenesis. Here, we found that Drp1 high expression or TFAM low expression is correlated with poor overall survival of ESCC patients. However, the underling mechanism by Drp1 or TFAM influence tumor progression is largely unknown, especially in esophageal squamous cell carcinoma (ESCC). To investigate the underling mechanisms of Drp1 overexpression or TFAM deficiency-mediated ESCC progression, transcriptome profiling was performed by RNA sequencing analysis in ESCC cells with Drp1 overexpression or TFAM knockdown.
