The lipid droplet protein DHRS3 is a regulator of melanoma cell state

ABSTRACT: Lipid droplets are fat storage organelles composed of a protein envelope and a lipid rich core. Dynamic regulation of this protein envelope underlies differential lipid droplet formation and function in diverse cell types. In melanoma, the ability to form lipid droplets has been linked to tumor progression and metastasis, but it is not known whether lipid droplet proteins play a role in these phenotypes. To address this, we performed proteomic analysis of the lipid droplet envelope in melanoma. We found that proteins expressed in the lipid droplet were differentially enriched in distinct melanoma states, ranging from melanocytic to neural crest like. DHRS3, which is involved in the conversion of all-trans-retinal to all-trans-retinol, is significantly upregulated in the MITFLO/neural crest-like melanoma cell state, and markedly reduced in the MITFHI/melanocytic state. Increased DHRS3 expression is sufficient to drive the MITFHI/melanocytic cells to a more undifferentiated and invasive state. These changes are due to retinoic acid mediated regulation of melanocytic genes through the retinoid X receptors (RXR). Our data demonstrate that melanoma cell state can be regulated by expression of lipid droplet proteins which affect downstream retinoid signaling.

Lipid droplets are a metabolic vulnerability in melanoma

Project description:Melanoma exhibits numerous transcriptional cell states including neural crest-like cells as well as pigmented melanocytic cells. How these different cell states relate to distinct tumorigenic phenotypes remains unclear. Here, we use a zebrafish melanoma model to identify a transcriptional program linking the melanocytic cell state to a dependence on lipid droplets, the specialized organelle responsible for lipid storage. Single-cell RNA-sequencing of these tumors show a concordance between genes regulating pigmentation and those involved in lipid and oxidative metabolism. This state is conserved across human melanoma cell lines and patient tumors. This melanocytic state demonstrates increased fatty acid uptake, an increased number of lipid droplets, and dependence upon fatty acid oxidative metabolism. Genetic and pharmacologic suppression of lipid droplet production is sufficient to disrupt cell cycle progression and slow melanoma growth in vivo. Because the melanocytic cell state is linked to poor outcomes in patients, these data indicate a metabolic vulnerability in melanoma that depends on the lipid droplet organelle.

Melanoma dedifferentiation induced by interferon-gamma epigenetic remodeling in response to anti-PD-1 therapy

Project description:Melanoma dedifferentiation has been reported as a state of cellular resistance to targeted therapies and immunotherapies as cancer cells revert to a more primitive cellular phenotype. Here we show that, counterintuitively, the biopsies of patient tumors that respond to anti-programmed cell death receptor 1 (PD-1) therapy decreased expression of melanocytic markers and increased neural crest markers, suggesting treatment-induced dedifferentiation. When modeling the effects in vitro, we documented that melanoma cell lines that were originally melanocytic differentiated underwent a process of neural crest dedifferentiation when continuously exposed to interferon gamma (IFNγ), through a global chromatin landscape changes leading to enrichment in specific hyperaccessible chromatin regions. The IFNγ-induced dedifferentiation signature corresponded with improved outcomes in patients with melanoma, challenging the notion that neural crest dedifferentiation is entirely an adverse phenotype.

Elucidating the Cellular Machinery for Lipid Storage in Plants

Project description:The overarching goal of this project is to understand the underlying mechanism for packaging storage lipids into lipid droplets in plant cells. Our group has identified several proteins involved in plant lipid droplet formation, but the inventory of proteins participating in this cellular process is far from complete. To search for new players involved in lipid droplet biogenesis and to gain more insights into how these players cooperate to package storage lipids into lipid droplets, we used an affinity capture approach coupled with mass spectrometry analysis to identify interactors of known lipid droplet-related proteins. Here, we used GFP-fused Arabidopsis thaliana LDIP and SEIPIN1 as baits to pull down their interactors in Nicotiana benthamiana leaves. The proteins that co-immunoprecipitated with GFP-LDIP and GFP-SEIPIN1 were analyzed by mass spectrometry and the results are shown here in this dataset.

Diet-MEF2 Interactions Shape Lipid Droplet Diversification in Muscle to Influence Drosophila Lifespan

Project description:The number, size, and composition of lipid droplets can be influenced by dietary changes that shift energy substrate availability. This diversification of lipid droplets can promote metabolic flexibility and shape cellular stress responses in unique tissues with distinctive metabolic roles. Using Drosophila, we uncovered a role for myocyte enhancer-factor 2 (MEF2) in modulating diet-dependent lipid droplet diversification within adult striated muscle, impacting mortality rates. Muscle-specific attenuation of MEF2, whose chronic activation maintains glucose and mitochondrial homeostasis, leads to the accumulation of large, cholesterol ester-enriched intramuscular lipid droplets in response to high calorie, carbohydrate sufficient diets. The diet-dependent accumulation of these lipid droplets also correlates with both enhanced stress protection in muscle and increases in organismal lifespan. Furthermore, MEF2 attenuation releases an antagonistic regulation of cell cycle gene expression programs, and up-regulation of Cyclin E is required for diet-and-MEF2 dependent diversification of intramuscular lipid droplets. The integration of MEF2-regulated gene expression networks with dietary responses thus plays a critical role in shaping muscle metabolism and function, further influencing organismal lifespan. Together, these results highlight a potential protective role for intramuscular lipid droplets during dietary adaptation.

Label free comparative proteome analysis of Arabidopsis lipid droplets from 6 week old leaves

Project description:Lipid droplets from 6 week old Arabidopsis leaves were purified on sucrose gradient. The abundance of the proteins in the lipid droplet fraction was established by label free and compared to soluble, membrane and plastoglobule fractions, and total leaf extract in order to identify the proteins specifically enriched in lipid droplets. Three independent biological replicates, from three independent cultures were performed. For each biological replicates, three preparations of lipid droplets (and other fractions) within each of the three independent cultures were obtained.

Identification of host regulators of Mycobacterium tuberculosis phenotypic states uncovers a role for the MMGT1-GPR156-lipid droplet axis in the induction of persistence [THP1_MMGT1_RNAseq]

Project description:The ability of Mycobacterium tuberculosis (Mtb) to establish latency directly impacts disease and response to treatment but the host’s influence on this switch remains elusive. Using a novel Mtb reporter strain to separate macrophages infected with replicating or latent Mtb, we performed transcriptomics and genome-wide CRISPR screens. After validating the recovery of known susceptibility loci from TB GWAS as modifiers of active replication, we identified multiple pathways and novel modulators of latency. We validated multiple controllers of latency and mechanistically characterized the transporter MMGT1. MMGT1-deficient macrophages upregulated lipid metabolism genes and accumulated lipid droplets during infection. Critically, targeting triacylglycerol synthesis reduced both droplet formation and Mtb latency. We identified GPR156, an orphan GPCR as a key inducer of droplet accumulation in ΔMMGT1 cells. Altogether, our work uncovers the role of MMGT1-GPR156-lipid droplets in the induction of Mtb latency, suggesting that host-directed therapies could be used to modulate Mtb phenotypes during infection.

Comparison of Holstein and Jersey day 6 embryos

Project description:Some embryos display better survival potential to cryopreservation than others. The cause of such phenotype is still unclear and might be due to cell damage during cryopreservation, resulting from over-accumulation and composition of lipids. In cattle embryos, in vitro culture conditions have been shown to impact the number of lipid droplets within blastomeres. So far, the impact of breed on embryonic lipid content has not yet been studied. In this study were compared the colour, lipid droplet abundance, lipid composition, mitochondrial activity, and gene expression of in vivo collected Jersey breed embryos which are known to display poor performance post-freezing and in vivo Holstein embryos which have good cryotolerance. Holstein in vivo day 6 embryos vs Jersey in vivo day 6 embryos: 4 replicates of each breed, with dye-swap.
