A compound directed against S6K1 hampers fat mass expansion and mitigates diet-induced hepatosteatosis

ABSTRACT: Imbalanced mTORC1-S6K1 engages signalling cascades related to obesity and fatty liver. Here, we set up to assess the therapeutic blockage of the ribosomal protein S6 kinase 1 (S6K1) in diet-induced obese (DIO) mice challenged with LY2584702 (LY) tosylate, a specific oral S6K1 inhibitor initially developed for the treatment of solid tumours. To characterize the ability of LY in counteracting obesity and diet-induced disturbances, DIO male mice were challenged every 12 h by oral gavage with LY in treatments lasting 12 and 4 weeks. We show that diminished S6K1 activity in mice treated with LY hampers fat mass expansion and ameliorates dyslipidaemia and hepatic steatosis, while modifying transcriptome-wide gene expression programs relevant for adipose and liver performance. Accordingly, impaired mTORC1 signalling in fat (decreased) and liver (increased) co-segregated with defective epithelial-mesenchymal transition, being prominent a decreased expression of Cd36 (coding for a fatty acid translocase) and Lgals1 (Galectin 1) in both tissues. All these factors combined align with reduced adipocyte size and improved lipidomic signatures, while hypertriglyceridemia and hepatic steatosis were improved in treatments of 12 and 4 weeks. This study provides new insights into the therapeutic intervention of S6K1 signalling, and opens a promising avenue for prevalent metabolic diseases.

LARP1 mRNP scaffolds mTORC1 to stimulate translation initiation of an essential class of mRNAs

Project description:The RNA biding protein, LARP1, has been proposed to function downstream of mTORC1 to positively regulate the translation of 5M-bM-^@M-^YTOP mRNAs such as ribosome protein (RP) mRNAs. However, its regulatory roles in mTORC1-mediated translation remain unclear. PAR-CLIP of LARP1 revealed its direct and dynamic interactions with RP mRNAs through pyrimidine-enriched sequences in the 5M-bM-^@M-^YUTR of RP mRNAs when mTOR activity is inhibited. Importantly, this LARP1 is a direct substrate of mTORC1 and S6K1/Akt, and phosphorylated LARP1 scaffolds mTORC1 on translation-competent mRNAs to facilitate 4EBP1 and S6K1 phosphorylation. Ablation of LARP1 causes multiple defects in the processes of translation including abnormal eIF4G1 interaction with RP mRNAs and inefficient RP mRNA elongation thereby reducing ribosome biogenesis and cell proliferation. These observations illustrate that LARP1 functions both an effector and a regulator for local mTORC1 activity, and acts as a molecular switch for ribosome biogenesis by sensing growth factor/nutrient signaling. LARP1-bound RNA regions were sequenced from HEK293T cells under growing or mTOR-inactive conditions. In parallel, mRNA abundance was quantified, in biological duplicate, from HEK293T cells under the same conditions.

Hepatic transcriptomic changes following equivalent weight loss by calorie restriction or vertical sleeve gastrectomy in mice with hepatic steatosis

Project description:Sleeve gastrectomy (VSG) leads to improvement in hepatic steatosis, associated with weight loss. The aims of this study were to investigate whether VSG leads to weight-loss independent improvements in liver steatosis in mice with diet-induced obesity (DIO); and to transcriptomically profile hepatic changes in mice undergoing VSG. Methods: Mice with DIO were treated with VSG, sham surgery with subsequent food restriction to weight-match to the VSG group (Sham-WM), or sham surgery with return to unrestricted diet (Sham-Ad lib). Hepatic transcriptomics were investigated at the end of the study period and treatment groups were compared with mice undergoing sham surgery only (Sham-Ad lib). Results: VSG led to much greater improvement in liver steatosis than Sham-WM (liver triglyceride mg/mg 2.5 ± 0.1, 2.1 ± 0.2, 1.6 ± 0.1 for Sham-AL, Sham-WM and VSG respectively; p=0.003). Homeostatic model assessment of insulin resistance was improved following VSG only (51.2 ± 8.8, 36.3 ± 5.3, 22.3 ± 6.1 for Sham-AL, Sham-WM and VSG respectively; p=0.03). The glucagon-alanine index, a measure of glucagon resistance, fell with VSG but was significantly increased in Sham-WM (9.8 ± 1.7, 25.8 ± 4.6 and 5.2 ± 1.2 in Sham Ad-lib, Sham-WM and VSG respectively; p=0.0003). Genes downstream of glucagon receptor signalling which govern fatty acid synthesis (Acaca, Acacb, Me1, Acyl, Fasn and Elovl6) were downregulated following VSG but upregulated in Sham-WM. Conclusion: Changes in glucagon sensitivity may contribute to weight-loss independent improvements in hepatic steatosis following VSG.

S6K1 Phosphoproteome in Tsc1-null mouse kidney iMCD3 cells

Project description:Loss of Tsc1 in the kidneys gives rise to rapid polycystogenesis and kidney failure due to the hyperactivation of mTOR complex I (mTORC1). One of the major downstream targets of mTORC1 is S6K1, which is responsible for driving many of the effector functions of mTOR. Strikingly, the loss of S6k1 in the context of hyperactivated mTOR is sufficient to reverse the generation of polycystic kidneys. In an effort to uncover novel direct S6k1 substrates involved in the generation of cystic kidneys, we generated Tsc1-null and Tsc1/S6k1-double null murine inner medullary collecting duct (iMCD3) cell lines using CRISPR/Cas9. Using these two cell lines, we conducted a phosphoproteome screen to search for novel candidates. Using a combination of antibody-motif enrichment and metal affinity enrichment, we provide a comprehensive phosphoproteome profile between these two genotypes.

S6K2 IS A NOVEL TARGET IN MAPKi-RESISTANT NRAS-MUTANT MELANOMA

Project description:Melanoma is often driven by NRAS mutations. Although oncogenic NRAS activates MAPK signaling, inhibition of this pathway has limited efficacy in NRAS-mutant tumors. As there are limited options to treat these tumors, there is a pressing need to identify NRAS-mutant-specific vulnerabilities that can be therapeutically exploited. Metabolic reprogramming is one of the hallmarks of RAS-mutant tumors, creating a dependency on key metabolic pathways. This dependency could be leveraged to combat these tumors. We discovered that abrogation of S6K2, a mTORC1 effector, triggers accumulation of unsaturated fatty acids, lipid peroxidation and cell death selectively in NRAS-mutant melanoma cells that are resistant to MAPK inhibition. S6K2 depletion induced upregulation of S6K1 and PPAR, triggering apoptotic and ferroptosis-like cell death. Conversely, depletion of S6K1 diminished lipid synthesis and cell proliferation, without eliciting cell death. Collectively, our data indicate that a fine balance between S6K1 and S6K2 activity and metabolic homeostasis is required to prompt cell death of NRAS-mutant melanoma. S6K2 is hence a novel therapeutic target for MAPKi-resistant NRAS-mutant melanoma.

Transcriptomic analysis of circumvallate papillae (CVP) from lean and DIO mice

Project description:Diet-induced obesity (DIO) is associated with a decreased oral fat detection in rodents. This blunted gustatory detection has been explained by an impairment of the lipid-mediated signaling in taste bud cells (TBC). However, factors responsible for this defect remain elusive. To better understand the mechanisms involved, circumvallate papillae from Lean, DIO and former DIO mice were analyzed with a transcriptomic approach.

Formate-induced phospho-signalling

Project description:The mitochondrial serine catabolism to formate induces a metabolic switch to a hypermetabolic state with high rates of glycolysis, purine synthesis and pyrimidine synthesis. While formate is a purine precursor it is not obvious link between formate and pyrimidine synthesis. Methods Here we combine phospho-proteome and metabolic profiling to determine how formate induces pyrimidine synthesis. We discover that formate induces CAD phosphorylation. Mechanistically formate induces mTORC1 activity as quantified by S6K1 phosphorylation, which is known to phosphorylate CAD and increase its enzymatic activity. Treatment with the allosteric mTORC1 inhibitor rapamycin abrogates CAD phosphorylation and pyrimidine synthesis induced by formate. We conclude that formate activates mTORC1 and induces pyrimidine synthesis via increasing CAD activity.
