Decoupling NAD+ metabolic dependency in chondrosarcoma by targeting the SIRT1–HIF-2α axis

ABSTRACT: Chondrosarcomas represent the second most common primary bone malignancy. Despite the vulnerability of chondrosarcoma cells to nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide (NAD+) depletion, targeting the NAD+ synthesis pathway remains challenging due to broad implications in biological processes. Here, we establish SIRT1 as a central mediator reinforcing the dependency of chondrosarcoma cells on NAD+ metabolism via HIF-2α-mediated transcriptional reprogramming. SIRT1 knockdown abolishes aggressive phenotypes of chondrosarcomas in orthotopically transplanted tumors in mice. Chondrosarcoma cells thrive under glucose starvation by accumulating NAD+ and subsequently activating the SIRT1–HIF-2α axis. Decoupling this link via SIRT1 inhibition unleashes apoptosis and suppresses tumor progression in conjunction with chemotherapy. Unsupervised clustering analysis identifies a high-risk chondrosarcoma patient subgroup characterized by the upregulation of NAD+ biosynthesis genes. Finally, SIRT1 inhibition abolishes HIF-2α transcriptional activity and sensitizes chondrosarcoma cells to doxorubicin-induced cytotoxicity, irrespective of underlying pathways to accumulate intracellular NAD+. We provide system-level guidelines to develop therapeutic strategies for chondrosarcomas.

Gene expression profiling data following HIF-1α or HIF-2α knockdown in SW1353 cells

Project description:Chondrosarcomas, malignant cartilaginous neoplasms, are capable of transitioning to highly aggressive, metastatic, and treatment-refractory states, resulting in significant patient mortality. We aimed to uncover the transcriptional program directing such tumor progression in chondrosarcomas. Here, we conducted weighted correlation network analysis (WGCNA) to extract a characteristic gene module underlying chondrosarcoma malignancy. We identified hypoxia-inducible factor-2α (HIF-2α, encoded by EPAS1) as an upstream regulator that governs the malignancy gene module. HIF-2α was upregulated in high grade chondrosarcoma biopsies and HIF-2α gene amplification was associated with the poor prognosis of patients with chondrosarcoma. Using tumor xenograft mouse models, we demonstrated that HIF-2α confers chondrosarcomas the capacities required for tumor growth, local invasion, and metastasis. Pharmacological inhibition of HIF-2α in conjunction with the chemotherapy agents synergistically enhanced chondrosarcoma cell apoptosis and abolished malignant signatures of chondrosarcoma in mice. We expect that our insights into the pathogenesis of chondrosarcoma will provide guidelines for the development of novel molecular-targeted therapeutics for chondrosarcoma.

HIF-1α and HIF-2α differently regulate tumour development, metabolism and inflammation of clear cell renal cell carcinoma in mice

Project description:Mutational inactivation of VHL is the earliest genetic event in the majority of ccRCCs, leading to activation of the HIF-1α and HIF-2α transcription factors. While correlative studies of human ccRCCs and functional studies using human ccRCC cell lines have implicated HIF-1α as an inhibitor and HIF-2α as a promoter of aggressive tumour behaviours, their roles in tumour onset have not been functionally addressed. Using an autochthonous ccRCC model, we show genetically that Hif1a is necessary for tumour formation whereas Hif2a deletion has only minor effects on tumour initiation and growth. Both HIF-1α and HIF-2α are necessary for the clear cell phenotype. Transcriptomic and proteomic analyses revealed that HIF-1α regulates glycolysis while HIF-2α regulates genes associated with lipoprotein metabolism, ribosome biogenesis and E2F and MYC transcriptional activities. Deficiency of HIF-2α increased CD8+ T cell infiltration and activation. These studies reveal different functions of HIF-1α and HIF-2α in ccRCC. SIGNIFICANCE The roles of HIF-1α and HIF-2α in ccRCC pathogenesis remain unclear. Using a mouse genetic approach we show that HIF-1α but not HIF-2α is important for tumour formation, contrary to predictions from studies of human ccRCC. We show that HIF-1α and HIF-2α transcriptionally regulate different aspects of metabolism and identify HIF-2α as a suppressor of immune cell infiltration and activation.

Hypoxia-inducible factor 2α attenuates renal ischemia-reperfusion injury by suppressing CD36-mediated lipid accumulation in dendritic cells

Project description:Hypoxia is a hallmark of renal ischemia reperfusion injury (IRI) and serves as an essential regulator of innate immune responses during this process, although the mechanisms of this regulation remain unclear. Here, we show that dendritic cell (DC)-specific genetic ablation of hypoxia-inducible factor (HIF) 2α, a transcription factor induced by oxygen shortage, leads to hyperactivation of natural killer T cells (NKTs), ultimately exacerbating renal IRI in mice. HIF-2α deficiency in DCs triggers IFN-γ and IL-4 production in NKTs, along with upregulation of type I interferon (IFN) and chemokine responses critical for NKT activation. Mechanistically, loss of HIF-2α in DCs promotes their expression of CD36, a scavenger receptor for lipid uptake, resulting in increased lipid accumulation. Furthermore, HIF-2α binds directly to a reverse hypoxia-responsive element (rHRE) in the CD36 promoter, supporting its transcriptional regulation of CD36. Importantly, CD36 blockade by sulfo-N-succinimidyl oleate (SSO), reduces NKT activation and abolishes the exacerbation of renal IRI in mice with DC-specific HIF-2α knockout. Taken together, our study reveals a previously unrecognized role of a HIF-2α-CD36 regulatory axis in rewiring DC lipid metabolism under IRI-associated hypoxia, and suggests a potential therapeutic target to resolve long-standing obstacles in clinical treatment of this severe complication.

Epithelial Hypoxia-Inducible Factor 2α Facilitates the Progression of Colon Tumors through Recruiting Neutrophils

Project description:Inflammation is a significant risk factor for colon cancer. Recent work has demonstrated essential roles for several infiltrating immune populations in the metaplastic progression following inflammation. Hypoxia and stabilization of hypoxia-inducible factors (HIFs) are hallmark features of inflammation and solid tumors. Previously, we demonstrated an important role for tumor epithelial HIF-2α in colon tumors; however, the function of epithelial HIF-2α as a critical link in the progression of inflammation to cancer has not been elucidated. In colitis-associated colon cancer models, epithelial HIF-2α was essential in tumor growth. Concurrently, epithelial disruption of HIF-2α significantly decreased neutrophils in the colon tumor microenvironment. Intestinal epithelial HIF-2α-overexpressing mice demonstrated that neutrophil recruitment was a direct response to increased epithelial HIF-2α signaling. High-throughput RNA sequencing (RNA-seq) analysis of HIF-2α-overexpressing mice in conjunction with data mining from the Cancer Genome Atlas showed that the neutrophil chemokine CXCL1 gene was highly upregulated in colon tumor epithelium in a HIF-2α-dependent manner. Using selective peptide inhibitors of the CXCL1-CXCR2 signaling axis identified HIF-2α-dependent neutrophil recruitment as an essential mechanism to increase colon carcinogenesis. These studies demonstrate that HIF-2α is a novel regulator of neutrophil recruitment to colon tumors and that it is essential in shaping the protumorigenic inflammatory microenvironment in colon cancer.

Targeting HIF-2α in skeletal progenitors and their descendants for the radioprotection of bone

Project description:Radiotherapy continues to be a common treatment modality for cancer despite skeletal complications. Currently, there are no effective treatments for radiation-induced bone loss. Radiation induces substantial changes to the bone microenvironment; however, the effects of these changes on skeletal progenitors and their descendants remain elusive. Following radiation, LeprCre skeletal progenitors and their descendants, localize to hypoxic regions and exhibit HIF-2α stabilization, thus implicating a role for HIF-2α in radiation-induced bone loss. To test whether HIF-2α deficiency rescues radiation-induced bone loss, we conditionally ablated HIF-2α in LeprCre-expressing cells and their descendants. Compared to irradiated controls, irradiated LeprCre;Hif-2αfl/fl knock out mice demonstrate increased bone mass with values comparable to non-irradiated animals. Mechanistically, HIF-2α negatively regulates osteoblastogenesis, mineralization, and number of skeletal progenitors. To test whether HIF-2α can be targeted therapeutically, we administered PT2399, a potent and selective HIF-2α inhibitor whose structural analog belzutifan, has recently received FDA approval. Administration of PT2399 was sufficient to prevent radiation-induced bone loss in a single-limb irradiation model. As ~90% of patients on HIF-2α inhibitor treatment develop anemia, we constructed a PT2399-loaded bone-targeting nanocarrier (Aln-PT-NC) to increase on-target efficacy and reduce off-target kidney toxicity. Delivery of Aln-PT-NC completely prevented radiation-induced bone loss while reducing drug accumulation in the kidney. In this study, we identify HIF-2α as a negative regulator of bone formation in LeprCre skeletal progenitors and their descendants following radiotherapy and developed a bone-targeting HIF-2α therapeutic. Together, these studies highlight the clinical potential of Aln-PT-NC to be translated into a treatment regimen for bone radioprotection.

Genome-wide mapping of HIF-2α binding under normoxia in human bronchial epithelial cells (BEAS-2B)

Project description:Growing number of cancer (stem) cells and stem cells were described to accommodate constituent active HIF-2α under normoxia. Previous study of hypoxia effect may have obscured some of normoxic HIF-2α functions as hypoxia inducible features. Our interest in study of protective potential of HIFs in lung cells led us to discover pseudohypoxia functions of HIF-2α under normoxia in human bronchial epithelial cells which exhibit pluripotency related markers and features. Our study provided perspective to pseudohypoxia functions of HIF-2α via enrichment of de novo motifs. In addition to the C-TAD, the N-TAD of HIF-2α was found to contribute to targeting on these non-canonical loci. Further elucidation of pseudohypoxia mechanism could resolve its implication of malignancy or pluripotency.

Stub1 acetylation by CBP/p300 attenuates chronic hypoxia-induced pulmonary hypertension by suppressing HIF-2α transcriptional activity

Project description:Chronic hypoxia induces pulmonary vascular remodeling and pulmonary hypertension (PH). While it is established that transcription factors, hypoxia-inducible factors (HIF-1α/HIF-2α) activate gene programs that drive hypoxia-induced PH, the mechanism of HIF-1/2 activation is less clear. Here, we report that carboxylterminus of Hsp70-interacting protein (CHIP or Stub1) modulates HIF-1α and HIF-2α transcription rather than reducing their stability. Knocking-down Stub1 reduced hypoxic activation of HIF-1α mRNA, protein, and activity while enhancing hypoxic induction of HIF-2α mRNA, protein, and target genes in pulmonary vascular cells. Mechanistically, CBP/p300-mediated acetylation of lysine (K287) inactivates the ubiquitin ligase activity of Stub1 and triggers its translocation from the cytoplasm into the nucleus. There, it recognizes the HIF promoter and hypoxia response elements (HREs) in target genes. Expression of Stub1-K287Q mutant (mimicking acetylation) enhanced hypoxia-induced HIF-1α expression, while acetyl-deficient Stub1-K287R mutant had the opposite effect on HIF-α but enhanced hypoxia-induced HIF-2α transcriptional activity. Endothelial-Stub1 transgenic mice tolerated chronic hypoxia better, had less pulmonary vascular remodeling, reduced pulmonary vascular resistance, and greater cardioprotection. Thus, Stub1 nuclear translocation enhances hypoxic induction of HIF-1α activity while suppressing deleterious effects of HIF-2α. These observations indicate that nuclear-Stub1 synergizes with HIF-1α to promote transcriptional responses and antagonizes HIF2α-driven PH in chronic hypoxia.

Increased HIF-2α Activity in the Nucleus Pulposus Causes Mild Degenerative Changes in the Intervertebral Disc in the Aging Mouse Spine

Project description:Transcriptomic analysis of nucleus pulposus (NP) tissues from intervertebral discs of 14- and 24-month-old mice with the conditional postnatal overexpression of HIF-2α. Hypoxia-inducible factors (HIFs) are essential for the homeostasis of the hypoxic tissues, and therefore, increased activity of the transcription factor HIF-2α is shown to contribute to the pathogenesis of mild disc degeneration in the spine. We examined the transcriptomic profiles of nucleus pulposus cells in control and K19-HIF-2α-dPA overexpression mice using microarrays.

The OGT/HIF-2α axis promotes the progression of clear cell renal cell carcinoma and its targetable vulnerability to ferroptosis

Project description:O-GlcNAc transferase (OGT) has been reported to participate in the development of various cancers, but its role in clear cell renal cell carcinoma (ccRCC) remains unclear. In this study, we found that OGT was upregulated in ccRCC compared with paired nontumor renal tissues and was associated with worse survival. Moreover, OGT promoted the proliferation, clone formation, and invasive abilities of VHL-mutated ccRCC cells. Mechanistically, OGT promoted the expression of hypoxia-inducible factor-2α (HIF-2α) (the main driver of the clear cell phenotype) by repressing ubiquitin‒proteasome system-mediated degradation. Interestingly, the OGT/HIF-2α axis confers ccRCC sensitivity to ferroptosis, rendering it vulnerable. In conclusion, OGT promotes the progression of VHL-mutated ccRCC by inhibiting the degradation of HIF-2α. On the other hand, the OGT/HIF-2α axis renders ccRCC vulnerable to ferroptosis, suggesting that ferroptosis inducers are a promising therapy for patients with upregulated OGT and mutated VHL ccRCC.
