Project description:The mechanisms that regulate T cell quiescence are poorly understood. We report that tuberous sclerosis complex 1 (Tsc1) establishes a quiescent program in naïve T cells by controlling cell size, cell cycle entry, and responses to T cell receptor stimulation. Loss of quiescence predisposed Tsc1-deficient T cells to apoptosis that depleted conventional T cells and invariant natural killer T cells. Loss of Tsc1 function dampened in vivo immune responses to bacterial infection. Tsc1-deficient T cells exhibited increased mTORC1 but diminished mTORC2 activities, with mTORC1 activation essential for the disruption of immune homeostasis. Therefore, Tsc1-dependent control of mTOR is crucial in establishing naïve T cell quiescence to facilitate adaptive immune function. Naïve CD4 and CD8 T cells from wild-type and Tsc1-deficient mice (in triplicates each group) were stimulated with or without TCR signaling. RNA was analyzed by microarrays. WT/KO for 0 and 4 hr for CD4 (triplicates), and WT/KO for 0 hr for CD8 (duplicates).

Project description:Diets characterized by increased blood levels of ketone bodies can protect the brain against a variety of acute and chronic neurological diseases. Moreover, ketone bodies are neuroprotective in many in vitro models of neurological injury. The underlying mechanisms remain unknown however. Recently, we have shown that ketone bodies do not only decrease neuronal injury and death but also protect long-term potentiation in acute hippocampal slices exposed to oxidative stress in the form of exogenous hydrogen peroxide. Elucidating the mechanisms behind the effects of ketone bodies on neuronal survival and function will undoubtedly lead to the development of novel neuroprotective treatments. Our aim is to determine acute changes in gene expression of CA1 pyramidal neurons exposed to various duration of the ketone bodies acetoacetate and beta-hydroxybutyrate. CA1 hippocampal pyramidal neurons exposed to oxidative stress do not display any long-term potention following burst stimulation of Schaffer collaterals. Incubation with the ketone bodies acetoacetate and beta-hydroxybutyrate for at least 20 min prior to hydrogen peroxide application restores long-term potentiation to control levels. We hypothesize that the neuroprotective effects of ketone bodies are mediated by changes in gene expression. Acute hippocampal slices (400 microns in thickness) were obtained from 4 week-old rats and exposed to acetoacetate and beta-hydroxybutyrate (1 mM each) for 1 h and 6 h. A control group was incubated in artificial cerebrospinal fluid only. After treatment, the hippocampal slices were used immediately for RNA isolation. Isolated RNA was sent for analysis. Each sample sent for analysis included tissue from 7 separate animals. Hybridization to an Affymetrix array is being performed 3 times for each experimental condition.

Project description:Metabolic fitness of T cells is crucial for immune responses against infections and tumorigenesis. Both the T cell receptor (TCR) signal and environmental cues contribute to the induction of T cell metabolic reprogramming, but the underlying mechanism is incompletely understood. Here we identified the E3 ubiquitin ligase Peli1 as an important regulator of T cell metabolism and antitumor immunity. Peli1 ablation profoundly promotes tumor rejection, associated with increased tumor-infiltrating CD4 and CD8 T cells. The Peli1-deficient T cells display markedly stronger metabolic activities, particularly glycolysis, than wildtype T cells. Peli1 controls the activation of a metabolic kinase, mTORC1, stimulated by both the TCR signal and growth factors, and this function of Peli1 is mediated through regulation of the mTORC1-inhibitory proteins, TSC1 and TSC2. Peli1 mediates non-degradative ubiquitination of TSC1, thereby promoting TSC1-TSC2 dimerization and TSC2 stabilization. These results establish Peli1 as an important regulator of T cell metabolism and antitumor immunity and suggest a novel mechanism that controls mTORC1 activation.

Project description:We report here the adipocyte-specific ablation of Tsc1 and its affects on lactation and mammary gland function. In this dataset, mammary glands from wild-type and adipocyte Tsc1 knockout mice were isolated during lactation and analysed by RNAseq. Deletion of Tsc1 is predicted to activate mTORC1 in both peripheral and mammary adipocytes. This study demonstrates that deletion of Tsc1 in adipocytes changes mammary gland histology, and function resulting in changes to breastmilk composition.

Project description:Memory CD8+ T cells are an essential component of protective immunity. Signaling via mechanistic target of rapamycin (mTOR) has been implicated in the regulation of the differentiation of effector and memory T cells. However, little is understood about the mechanisms that control mTOR activity, or the effector pathways regulated by mTOR, in this process. We describe here that tuberous sclerosis 1 (Tsc1), a regulator of mTOR signaling, plays a crucial role in promoting the differentiation and function of memory CD8+ T cells in response to Listeria monocytogenes infection. Mice with specific deletion of Tsc1 in antigen-experienced CD8+ T cells evoked normal effector responses, but were markedly impaired in the generation of memory T cells and their recall responses to antigen re-exposure in a cell-intrinsic manner. Tsc1 deficiency suppressed the generation of memory-precursor effector cells (MPECs) while promoting short-lived effector cell (SLEC) differentiation. Functional genomic analysis indicated that Tsc1 coordinated gene expression programs underlying immune function, transcriptional regulation and cell metabolism. Furthermore, Tsc1 deletion led to excessive mTORC1 activity and dysregulated cellular metabolism including glycolytic and oxidative metabolism. These findings establish a Tsc1-mediated checkpoint in linking immune signaling and cell metabolism to orchestrate memory CD8+ T cell development and function. We used microarrays to explore the gene expression profiles differentially expressed in OVA-specific CD8+ T-cells from wild-type (WT; Tsc1-fl/fl and cre-negative) and Tsc1-/- (Tsc1-fl/fl and Granzyme B-cre-positive) mice

Project description:Loss of Tsc1 in the kidneys gives rise to rapid polycystogenesis and kidney failure due to the hyperactivation of mTOR complex I (mTORC1). One of the major downstream targets of mTORC1 is S6K1, which is responsible for driving many of the effector functions of mTOR. Strikingly, the loss of S6k1 in the context of hyperactivated mTOR is sufficient to reverse the generation of polycystic kidneys. In an effort to uncover novel direct S6k1 substrates involved in the generation of cystic kidneys, we generated Tsc1-null and Tsc1/S6k1-double null murine inner medullary collecting duct (iMCD3) cell lines using CRISPR/Cas9. Using these two cell lines, we conducted a phosphoproteome screen to search for novel candidates. Using a combination of antibody-motif enrichment and metal affinity enrichment, we provide a comprehensive phosphoproteome profile between these two genotypes.

Project description:Background: Several studies suggest that dietary beta hydroxybutyrate supplementation delays the progression of chronic kidney disease (CKD) by suppressing inflammation and fibrosis. We hypothesized that the oral supplementation with the beta-hydroxybutyrate (BHB) precursor 1,3-butanediol in addition to inhibitors of the renin-angiotensin system (RAS) and sodium-glucose transporter (SGLT)2 would be superior to dual RAS/SGLT2 blockade alone in attenuating the loss of glomerular filtration rate in Col4a3-deficient mice with Alport nephropathy, a spontaneous model of progressive CKD. Methods: We performed a placebo-controlled study in Col4a3-deficient mice with Alport nephropathy. Treatment was initiated at a late stage of the disease at the age of six weeks. Mice were fed food admixes of 10 μg/g ramipril plus 30 μg/g empagliflozin with or without addition of 0,04g/g 1,3-butanediol (concentration per gram of bodyweight). The mice were monitored daily and sacrificed upon reaching renal failure. The glomerular filtration rate (GFR) was measured at the start of the treatment and after one and four weeks. Results: The addition of beta hydroxybutyrate significantly attenuated the loss of glomerular filtration rate beyond the effect of dual RAS/SGLT2 blockade. The mean glomerular filtration rate after four weeks of treatment was 1.4±5.0 μl/min (vehicle), 61.3±51.1 μl/min (RASi + SGLT2i), and 138.9±68.5 μl/min (RASi + SGLT2i + 1,3-butanediol). No additional effects on lifespan could be observed. Kidney RNA sequencing revealed significant protective effects on inflammation when adding the beta hydroxybutyrate precursor 1,3-butanediol to RAS/SGLT2 inhibition. In histopathology, antifibrotic effects were seen upon beta hydroxybutyrate addition. Conclusion: The results in mice suggest that beta hydroxybutyrate supplementation improves the GFR in Alport syndrome by suppressing inflammation and fibrosis. However, the effects did not lead to a significant increase in lifespan. Furthermore, the observed effects stay behind the effects of finerenone as a combination partner, which was tested earlier in the same mouse model.
