Polyamines regulate adaptive antitumor immunity by functional specialization of regulatory T cells

ABSTRACT: In cancer, metabolic changes and uncontrolled tumor growth alter nutrient availability, impacting antitumor immune responses. Regulatory T (Treg) cells are a subset of T cells with immunosuppressive properties that has been found to additionally possess the ability to control tissue homeostasis and repair. However, it is not known how these functions are molecularly controlled and if they are influenced by tumor metabolism. Here, we report that excessive release of polyamines in the tumor microenvironment directs the functional polarization of Treg cells towards immunosuppression in a protein kinase CK2 (CK2)-dependent manner. Polyamine deprivation as well as genetic or pharmacological inhibition of CK2 activity in Treg cells induced tissue reparative properties in Treg cells that orchestrated efficient antitumor type 2 immune responses, and coordinated tissue repair mechanisms to support tumor eradication. These findings suggest the potential for targeted modulation of Treg cell functions, offering new avenues for cancer therapy. This dataset is intended to investigate the effect of DFMO on gene expression depending on the presence of CK2β, the beta subunit of protein kinase CK2.

Stem cell-like properties of CK2β-downregulated mammary cells [miRNA]

Project description:The ubiquitous Protein kinase CK2 has been demonstrated to be overexpressed in a number of human tumors. This enzyme is composed of two catalytic α or α’ subunits and a dimer of β regulatory subunits whose expression levels are probably implicated in CK2 regulation. Several recent papers reported that unbalanced expression of CK2 subunits is sufficient to drive epithelial to mesenchymal transition, a process involved in cancer invasion and metastasis. Herein, through transcriptomic and miRNA analysis together with comparison of cellular properties between wild type and CK2β-knock-down MCF10A cells, we show that down-regulation of CK2β subunit in mammary epithelial cells induces the acquisition of stem cell-like properties associated with CD44high/CD24low antigenic phenotype and the ability to grow under anchorage-independent conditions. These data demonstrate that a CK2β level establishes a critical cell fate threshold in the control of epithelial cell plasticity. Thus, this regulatory subunit functions as a nodal protein to maintain an epithelial phenotype.

Substrate selectivity for semisynthetic CK2 proteins with various posttranslational modifications

Project description:Protein Ser/Thr kinase CK2 is involved in a myriad of cellular processes including cell growth and proliferation by phosphorylating hundreds of substrates, yet the regulation process of CK2 function is poorly understood. The CK2 catalytic subunit, CK2α, is modified by O-GlcNAc on Ser347 proximal to a Cdk1 phosphorylation site at Thr344 on the same protein. The substrate selectivity for protein kinase CK2 was examined by performing kinase assays on protein microarrays spotted with 17,000 human proteins. Semisynthetic CK2α proteins were prepared to contain an unmodified C-terminal tail, S-GlcNAc-Serine at S347, or Pfa (non-hyrdolyzeable phosphomimic) at T344. These semisynthetic proteins were used to determine if the posttranslational modifications on CK2 alpha modulate the substrate selectivity for this pleiotropic kinase. The different semisynthetic CK2α proteins were tested alone and in the presence of the regulatory subunit CK2β since it is known that the CK2α subunit is active both in its isolated state and in the heterotetrameric state formed in the presence of the regulatory beta subunit. The CK2β subunit has been shown to modulate CK2 activity with some substrates and not others. In the study presented here, kinase assays were performed using three different semisynthetic CK2 alpha proteins: unmodified C-terminal tail; S-GlcNAc-Ser at 347; and Pfa (phosphomimic) at 344. The semisynthetic proteins were each tested alone and in the presence of the regualatory CK2 beta subunit. There were six different kinase conditions and each condition was performed in duplicate and one no kinase control was performed to eliminate autophorylated proteins.

CK2β is a gatekeeper of focal adhesions regulating cell spreading

Project description:CK2 is an hetero-tetrameric protein made of two CK2α catalytic subunits and two regulatory CK2β subunits. The free CK2α subunit and the tetrameric holoenzyme have distinct substrate specificity profiles suggesting that the spatiotemporal organization of the individual CK2 subunits observed in living cells is crucial in the control of the many cellular processes that are governed by this pleiotropic kinase. Indeed, sub-stoichiometric expression of CK2β compared to CK2α in a subset of breast cancer tumors was correlated with the induction of EMT markers and increased epithelial cell plasticity in breast carcinoma progression. Using phosphotyrosine profiling with affinity capture and LC/MS-MS, we show that decreased expression of CK2β in MCF10A mammary epithelial cells triggers the phosphorylation of a number of tyrosine phosphorylated proteins and promotes the striking activation of the FAK1-Src-PAX1 signaling pathway. Moreover, morphometric analyses also revealed that CK2β loss increases the number and the spatial distribution of focal adhesion signaling complexes. Together, our finding allows positioning CK2β as a gatekeeper for cell spreading by restraining the focal adhesion maturation and invasion of mammary epithelial cells.

CRISPR screen reveals genes with differential fitness with polyamines

Project description:Polyamine depletion using DFMO or sardomozide, inhibitors of the polyamine biosynthesis enzymes ODC1 and AMD1, respectively, exerts cytostatic effects without inducing substantial cell death. To identify genetic dependencies under varying polyamine levels, we conducted a genome-wide CRISPR-Cas9 knockout screen across conditions with differing intracellular polyamine concentrations.

Protein Kinase 2 (CK2) Controls CD8+ T-cell Effector and Memory Function during Infection

Project description:Protein kinase 2 (CK2) is a serine/threonine kinase composed of two catalytic subunits (CK2α and/or CK2α') and two regulatory subunits (CK2β). CK2 has been shown to promote cancer progression by regulating the NF-κB, PI3K/AKT/mTOR, JAK/STAT and HIF-1α pathways, and also plays a critical role for immune cell development and function. However, the potential involvement of CK2 in CD8+ T-cell function has not explored. Here, we demonstrate that CK2 protein levels and kinase activity are enhanced upon CD8+ T-cell activation. CK2α deficiency results in impaired CD8+ T-cell activation and proliferation upon TCR stimulation. Furthermore, CK2α is involved in CD8+ T-cell metabolic reprogramming during activation through regulating the AKT/mTOR signaling pathway. Lastly, using a Listeria monocytogenes infection model, we demonstrate that CK2α is required for CD8+ T-cell expansion, maintenance and effector function in both primary and memory immune responses. Taken together, our study implicates CK2 as an important regulator of CD8+ T-cell activation and differentiation both in vitro and in vivo.
