Acquired resistance in AML cell lines to the bifunctional electrophile busulfan is associated with changes in mitochondrial copy numbers and lipid and cholesterol metabolism

ABSTRACT: Purpose: Alterations in mitochondrial copy number (mtDNA-CNs) may affect the sensitivity of cells to reactive oxygen species (ROS)-generating compounds, such as busulfan (BU). In this work, we investigated whether the resistance of AML cell lines to ROS-generating compounds, Busulfan (BU), or and the DNA synthesis inhibitor cytarabine (ara-C) was associated with an increase of mtDNA-CNs. Methods: Myeloid cells (MOLM13) were exposed to five consecutive BU treatments to acquire BU resistance (5TBU). The 5TBU and control cell lines, treated with DMSO, were further exposed to five consecutive ara-C treatments to obtain cells resistant to both BU and ara-C. We estimated the 50% inhibitory concentration (IC50) of BU and ara-C in these cells and quantified mtDNA-CNs by RT-qPCR of MTND1. We also performed gene expression profiling to assess how resistance to BU and treatement with DMSO affect the transcriptional activity of cells. Results: mtDNA-CNs were associated with cellular sensitivity to BU, but not to ara-C. Cholesterol and fatty acid synthesis pathways appear to be important in cellular adaptation to BU.

RNA sequencing analysis of busulfan-treated initial segment-caput epididymis.

Project description:Purpose: The purpose of this study is to characterize genes whose expressions in the initial segment (IS)-caput epididymis were affected by busulfan intraperitoneal injection. Methods: 8-week-old wild-type mice were treated with single intraperitoneal injection of dimethyl sulfoxide (DMSO) or busulfan (40mg/kg body weight) disolved in DMSO and mice were left for 4 weeks until tissue sampling at 12 weeks old. IS-caput epididymal mRNA profiles were generated by deep sequencing, in triplicate, using Illumina NovaSeq6000. Results: RNA-seq data identified differentially expressed transcripts. Conclusions: Our results show that the expression of many genes was affected by busulfan injection.

Drosophila CNS mitochondrial DNA dysfunction microarray

Project description:Mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA) encodes essential components of the respiratory chain and loss of mtDNA leads to mitochondrial dysfunction and neurodegeneration. Mitochondrial transcription factor A (TFAM) is an essential component of mtDNA replication and a regulator of mitochondrial copy number in cells. Studies have shown that TFAM knockdown leads to mitochondrial dysfunction and respiratory chain deficiencies. Using gene expression analysis, we aimed to investigate the effects of mtDNA dysfunction in the CNS at the molecular level. We used microarray analysis to investigate gene expression in cases of mitochondrial dysfunction in the CNS. RNA was purified from the late third instar larval CNS from control larvae, or larvae over-expressing mitochondrial transcription factor A (TFAM) in post-mitotic neurons using the neuron specific driver nsyb-Gal4. Three replicates are included for each condition.

Mechanisms of Chemotherapy Failure in Refractory/Relapsed Acute Myeloid Leukemia: The Role of Cytarabine Resistance and Mitochondrial Metabolism

Project description:Acute myeloid leukemia (AML) originates from malignant, immature myeloid progenitor cells that differentiate into dysfunctional myeloblasts. While cytarabine (Ara-C) and daunorubicin (DNR)-based chemotherapy regimens are the standard treatments, approximately 10-40% of AML patients under the age of 60 and 40-60% over 60 do not respond, leading to refractory or relapsed (R/R) AML. Targeted chemotherapy for FLT3-ITD mutated R/R AML cells improves response rates and survival outcomes in FLT3-ITD mutated R/R AML patients. However, patients with wild-type FLT3 R/R AML remain therapeutically challenged, with persistent difficulty in finding effective treatments. Better insights on the fundamental understanding of treatment failure in wild-type FLT3 AML cells are needed to enhance therapeutic outcomes. However, precise mechanisms behind the treatment failure remain unclear. This study investigates the mechanisms underlying the failure of Ara-C and DNR-based chemotherapy in wild-type FLT3 R/R AML. Using RHI-1 cells, a wild-type FLT3 AML cell line with Ara-C resistance, we demonstrated that Ara-C resistance-mediated DNR tolerance did not result from reducing the concentration of DNR in RHI-1 cells, but rather from interrupting the cytotoxic mechanisms of DNR through the Ara-C resistance of RHI-1. The down-regulated deoxycytidine kinase (DCK) in RHI-1 cells interrupted mechanisms of Ara-C cytotoxic action. Also, the down-regulation of DCK enhanced mitochondrial metabolic pathways, DNA repair process, and ROS detoxification. Through these pathways, RHI-1 cells exhibit tolerance under DNR treatment. Among these enhanced processes, targeting mitochondrial metabolism, particularly OXPHOS complex I proteins, improved the efficacy of both Ara-C and DNR. Our findings shed light on a potential mechanism underlying the treatment failure and the role of mitochondrial metabolism in wild-type FLT3 R/R AML cells.

Mitochondrial DNA quantity Counteracts ROS damage in oocytes during female reproductive aging

Project description:We investigated the contentious role of mitochondrial reactive oxygen species (ROS) on mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA) quality and quantity in female reproductive aging. By conditionally knocking out the Sod2 gene in female mouse germline, we observed increased mitochondrial ROS and decreased oocyte quality, primarily due to impacts on OXPHOS complex II and mtDNA encoded mRNA levels. Interestingly, we found no increased mtDNA mutations, but alterations in mtDNA quantity, indicating the susceptibility of mtDNA to the mitochondrial ROS during reproductive aging. Notably, when we further decreased the basal level of mtDNA quantity by deactivating the mtSSB protein in Sod2 conditional knockout females, we observed an exacerbation of reproductive aging effects. This highlights the crucial role of mtDNA quantity in mitigating the impact of oxidative stress on fertility.

Gene Expression Analysis of Ara-C Resistance in AML

Project description:Using two independently derived murine BXH2 cell lines, Ara-C resistant derivatives were developed by exposure to increasing concentrations of Ara-C. Microarray analysis comparing the Ara-C resistant cells to their Ara-C sensitive parental cell lines identified potential genes involved in Ara-C resistance. Two highly Ara-C-resistant cell lines, B117H and B140H, were derived from Ara-C-sensitive parental cell lines, B117P and B140P. Variations in gene expression between these Ara-C-resistant and -sensitive sets were studied. Three replicates per cell line.

UVA irradiation promotes ROS-mediated formation of the common deletion in mitochondrial DNA

Project description:Ultraviolet (UV) radiation from the sun causes adverse skin changes such as premature aging. UV-induced mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA) alterations, including deletions, contribute to photoaging and cellular dysfunction. The most frequent mtDNA rearrangement is the common deletion (CD), characterized by the loss of nearly one-third of the genome (4,977 bp). Although UV radiation exposure leads to CD formation, the molecular mechanisms initiating UV-induced CD remain poorly defined. In this study, we show that increasing UV doses increase CD levels in human skin fibroblasts. UVA exposure increased cellular reactive oxygen species (ROS) and mtDNA oxidation. Antioxidant preconditioning prevented UVA-induced CD accumulation, indicating a ROS-dependent mechanism. Conversely, UVB exposure induced cyclobutane pyrimidine dimers (CPDs) without affecting ROS, suggesting a ROS-independent pathway. Using a 3D full-thickness human skin model, we confirmed UVA-dependent CD formation in both epidermis and dermis. RNA-Seq analysis of UVA-exposed fibroblasts revealed upregulation of mitochondrial DNA replication genes and downregulation of mtDNA repair genes. Taken together, our findings provide insight into how UVA and UVB differ in their detrimental effects on mtDNA, with UVA impacting mtDNA maintenance and transcription via a ROS-dependent mechanism.

Gene expression signatures in ex vivo Cytarabine (Ara-C) and Daunorubicin (Dnr) sensitive AML samples

Project description:Wide inter-individual variation in terms of outcome and toxic side effects of treatment exist among patients with AML receiving chemotherapy with cytarabine (Ara-C) and daunorubicin (Dnr). Drug resistance and relapse are considered major causes of treatment failure. Gene expression profiling was undertaken to address possible mechanisms of Ara-C/Dnr resistance. Based on ex vivo Ara-C cytotoxicity at diagnosis, Ara-C sensitive (IC50 <3uM AraC) and Dnr sensitive samples (IC50 < 0.5 uM) (5 samples each) were included for microarray analysis. These were compared with the samples which were drug resistant ex vivo at diagnosis. Our microarray experiment resulted in indentifying differentially expressed genes under ex vivo Ara-C sensitive as well as Dnr sensitive samples compared to ex vivo Drug resistant samples.

Oxidation of Retromer Complex controls Mitochondrial Translation

Project description:Reactive oxygen species (ROS) underlie human pathologies including cancer and neurodegeneration. The mitochondrial electron transport chain is appreciated as a key regulator of ROS stoichiometry in cells. However, the pathways that sense and regulate ROS levels more broadly remain to be fully elucidated. Here, systematic base-editor and computational screens identify VPS35, a member of the Retromer trafficking complex, as a cytosolic ROS sensor. Mechanistically, we find that VPS35 C653/C673 regulates compartmentalized mitochondrial translation by disrupting the plasma membrane localization of SLC7A1, leading to dramatic resistance against ROS-generating anti-cancer agents including cisplatin. Our study describes the regulation of compartmentalized translation and cellular ROS homeostasis by a single amino acid within vesicular trafficking machinery, supporting the long-standing hypothesis that mitochondrial ROS is implicated in cisplatin resistance. We anticipate that the approaches employed herein may template a generalizable method for the identification of functional ROS targets and sensors under various biological contexts.
