Project description:Background. Glioblastoma multiforme (GBM) exhibits a cellular hierarchy with a subpopulation of stem-like cells known as glioblastoma stem cells (GSCs), that drive tumor growth and contribute to treatment resistance. NAD(H) emerged as a crucial factor influencing GSCs. Methods. A multistep process of machine learning algorithms was implemented to construct the glioma stemness-related score (GScore). Further in silico and patient tissue analyses validated the predictive ability of the GScore and identified a potential target, CYP3A5. Loss-of-function or gain-of-function genetic experiments were performed to assess the impact of CYP3A5 on the self-renewal and chemoresistance of GSCs both in vitro and in vivo. Mechanistic studies were conducted using nontargeted metabolomics, RNA-seq, seahorse, transmission electron microscopy, immunofluorescence, flow cytometry, ChIP‒qPCR, RT‒qPCR, western blotting, etc. The efficacy of pharmacological inhibitors of CYP3A5 was assessed in vivo. Results. Based on the proposed GScore, we identify a GSC target CYP3A5, which is highly expressed in GSCs and temozolomide (TMZ)-resistant GBM patients. This elevated expression of CYP3A5 is attributed to transcription factor STAT3 activated by EGFR signaling or TMZ treatment. Depletion of CYP3A5 impairs self-renewal and TMZ resistance in GSCs. Mechanistically, CYP3A5 maintains mitochondrial fitness to promote GSC metabolic adaption through the NAD⁺/NADH-SIRT1-PGC1α axis. Additionally, CYP3A5 enhances the activity of NAD-dependent enzyme PARP to augment DNA damage repair. Treatment with CYP3A5 inhibitor alone or together with TMZ effectively suppresses tumor growth in vivo. Conclusion. Together, this study suggests that GSCs activate STAT3 to upregulate CYP3A5 to fine-tune NAD⁺/NADH for the enhancement of mitochondrial functions and DNA damage repair, thereby fueling tumor proliferation and conferring TMZ resistance, respectively. Thus, CYP3A5 represents a promising target for GBM treatment.

Project description:Knowledge about effects of cofactor perturbation on cellular metabolism is scarce with respect to Saccharopolyspora erythraea. The water-forming NADH oxidase (NOX) from Streptococcus pneumonia was expressed in S.erythraea E3, an important industrial strain for erythromycin production, at three different levels to investigate effects of intracellular redox status on secondary metabolism. NOX expression reduced the intracellular [NADH]/[NAD+] ratios significantly, although with a strong constitutive promoter NOX function was limited due to the shortage of oxygen. We demonstrated the negative correlation between [NADH]/[NAD+] ratios and biosynthesis of erythromycin in S.erythraea, but a positive correlation between the redox ratios and pigment production as well. We furthermore completed next-generation RNA sequencing of E3 and two NOX-expression strains. The transcription results showed that transfer processes of carbohydrates, DNA and chemical groups were altered resulting in metabolic shifts to supply more NADH for NOX fully functioning. Additionally, redox status affected transcription of several genes by allosteric effects on their transcription initiation. Specifically, transcriptional analysis along with enzymatic assay suggested that redox status influenced biosynthesis of erythromycin indirectly by allosteric effects on biosynthesis of the secondary messenger, c-di-GMP. The present work provides a basis for future cofactor manipulation in S.erythraea for further improvement of erythromycin production.

Project description:SRC-1 affects the expression of complex I of the mitochondrial electron transport chain, a set of enzymes responsible for the conversion of NADH to NAD(+). NAD(+) and NADH were subsequently identified as metabolites that underlie SRC-1's response to glucose deprivation. Knockdown of SRC-1 in glycolytic cancer cells abrogated their ability to grow in the absence of glucose consistent with SRC-1's role in promoting cellular adaptation to reduced glucose availability RNA profiling was used to examine the effects of SRC-1 perturbation on gene expression in the absence or presence of glucose.

Project description:Cytosolic free NAD/NADH ratio is fundamentally important in maintaining cellular redox homeostasis but current techniques cannot distinguish between protein-bound and free NAD/NADH. Williamson et al reported a method to estimate this ratio by cytosolic lactate/pyruvate (L/P) based on the principle of chemical equilibrium. Numerous studies used L/P ratio to estimate the cytosolic free NAD/NADH ratio by assuming that the conversion in cells was at near-equilibrium but not verifying how near it was. In addition, it seems accepted that cytosolic free NAD/NADH ratio was a dependent variable responding to the change of L/P ratio. In this study, we show (1) that the change of lactate/glucose (percentage of glucose that converts to lactate by cells) and L/P ratio could measure the status of conversion between pyruvate + NADH and lactate + NAD that tends to or gets away from equilibrium; (2) that cytosolic free NAD/NADH could be accurately estimated by L/P only when the conversion is at or very close to equilibrium otherwise a calculation error by one order of magnitude could be introduced; (3) that cytosolic free NAD/NADH is stable and L/P is highly labile, that the highly labile L/P is crucial to maintain the homeostasis of NAD/NADH; (4) that cytosolic free NAD/NADH is dependent on oxygen levels. Our study resolved the key issues regarding accurate estimation of cytosolic free NAD/NADH ratio and the relationship between NAD/NADH and L/P.

Project description:A decline in electron transport chain (ETC) activity is associated with many human diseases. Although diminished mitochondrial adenosine triphosphate production is recognized as a source of pathology, the contribution of the associated reduction in the ratio of the amount of oxidized nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide (NAD(+)) to that of its reduced form (NADH) is less clear. We used a water-forming NADH oxidase from Lactobacillus brevis (LbNOX) as a genetic tool for inducing a compartment-specific increase of the NAD(+)/NADH ratio in human cells. We used LbNOX to demonstrate the dependence of key metabolic fluxes, gluconeogenesis, and signaling on the cytosolic or mitochondrial NAD(+)/NADH ratios. Expression of LbNOX in the cytosol or mitochondria ameliorated proliferative and metabolic defects caused by an impaired ETC. The results underscore the role of reductive stress in mitochondrial pathogenesis and demonstrate the utility of targeted LbNOX for direct, compartment-specific manipulation of redox state.

Project description:Human mesenchymal stem cells (hMSCs) promote endogenous tissue regeneration and have become a promising candidate for cell therapy. However, in vitro culture expansion of hMSCs induces a rapid decline of stem cell properties through replicative senescence. Here we characterize metabolic profiles of hMSCs during expansion. We show that alterations of cellular nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide (NAD+ /NADH) redox balance and activity of the Sirtuin (Sirt) family enzymes regulate cellular senescence of hMSCs. Treatment with NAD+ precursor nicotinamide increases the intracellular NAD+ level and re-balances the NAD+ /NADH ratio, with enhanced Sirt-1 activity in hMSCs at high passage, partially restores mitochondrial fitness and rejuvenates senescent hMSCs. By contrast, human fibroblasts exhibit limited senescence as their cellular NAD+ /NADH balance is comparatively stable during expansion. These results indicate a potential metabolic and redox connection to replicative senescence in adult stem cells and identify NAD+ as a metabolic regulator that distinguishes stem cells from mature cells. This study also suggests potential strategies to maintain cellular homeostasis of hMSCs in clinical applications.
