Regulation of gene expression by glucose metabolism in mammary cell lines

ABSTRACT: Reprogramming of cancer cell metabolism toward aerobic glycolysis, i.e. the Warburg effect, is a hallmark of cancer; according to current views, the rationale for selecting such energy-inefficient metabolism is the need to increase cellular biomass to sustain production of daughter cells and proliferation. In this view, metabolic reprogramming is considered as a simple phenotypic endpoint that occurs as a consequence of signal transduction mechanisms, including oncogene-driven nutrient uptake and metabolic rewiring. A newly emerging paradigm is instead that transcriptional networks and oncogenic signaling can also be regulated downstream of metabolic pathways, that assume causative roles in controlling cancer cell behavior, above and beyond their core biochemical function. To explore possible links between glucose metabolism and nuclear gene transcription we compared immortalized mammary epithelial cells (MCF10A) and metastatic breast cancer cells (MDA-MB-231) growing in high glucose or in the presence of a widely used inhibitor of glucose uptake / glucose metabolism, 2-deoxy-glucose (2DG).

Combinatorial targeting of glycolysis and oxidative phosphorylation suppresses tumor growth and metastases.

Project description:The Warburg effect, consisting of increased glucose uptake and glycolysis, provides metabolic energy as well as cellular building blocks for tumor growth. Inhibition of the Warburg effect with 2-deoxyglucose (2DG) has been explored in clinical trials with limited efficacy. Blockage of glycolysis can induce autopahgy resulting in alternative energy generation through oxidative phosphorylation providing a potential bypass of the effects of inhibition of glycolysis. Here in we demonstrate that activation of AMPK, as a consequence of energetic stress, induces mitochondrial energy production potentially bypassing the effects of glycolysis inhibition. We thus combined blockage of glycolysis by 2DG with inhibition of the electron transfer complex I (ETC1) in the mitochondria with the clinically applicable antidiabetic drug metformin. The combination resulted in activation of AMPK and autopahgy that however rendered eventual depletion of ATP and cell death. Furthermore, combined inhibition of glycolysis and mitochondrial respiration inhibited tumor growth and markedly decreased metastatic capacity in vivo. In order to understand the mechanism of these metabolic inhibitors, we performed whole genome transcriptional analysis. Human SK-4 esophageal cancer cell lines were treated with 5 different treatment groups [2 deoxy glucose (4mM), Metformin (5mM), AICAR (2mM), 2 deoxy glucose (4mM) plus Metformin (5mM) and 2 deoxy glucose (4mM) plus AICAR (2mM)] with non treated control groups for 12 hrs. Each groups was quadruplicated. Microarray experiments and data analysis were done at Dept. of Systems Biology, MDACC (Houston, USA)

Proteomic analysis of mouse hearts treated with and without 2-deoxy-D-glucose

Project description:2-deoxy-D-glucose (2DG) is a glucose analog that is established to inhibit glucose metabolism via glycolysis. It has long been recognized as a potential chemical mimetic of calorie restriction, and it also has been shown to have anti-viral effects in infected cells, against among others SARS-CoV-2. This study aimed to determine whether intermittent treatment of mice with 2DG could alter nutrient metabolism in vivo and whether this would produce a proteomic signature of altered glucose metabolism and other cellular pathways, with a view to explaining the anti-viral properties of 2DG. Parallel physiological studies of the heart aimed to relate any proteomic changes to the function and performance of the heart, including assessing whether there were any signs of detrimental effects of 2DG.

Proteomic response of yeast cells to 2-deoxyglucose exposure (0.2%, 2.5h)

Project description:Cancer cells display an altered metabolism with increased glycolysis and glucose uptake. Anti-cancer strategies targeting glycolysis through metabolic inhibitors have been considered. The glucose analog 2-deoxyglucose (2DG) is imported into cells and after phosphorylation becomes 2DG-6-phosphate, a toxic by-product that inhibits glycolysis. 2DG has other cellular effects and can induce resistance. Using yeast as a model, we performed an unbiased, mass-spectrometry-based approach to probe the cellular effects of 2DG on the proteome and study resistance mechanisms. We found that two 2DG-6-phosphate phosphatases, Dog1 and Dog2, were induced upon exposure to 2DG and participated in 2DG detoxication. 2DG induced Dog2 by activating several signaling pathways, such as the MAPK (the p38 ortholog Hog1)-based stress-responsive pathway, the unfolded protein response (UPR) triggered by 2DG-induced ER stress, and the MAPK (Slt2)-based cell wall integrity (CWI) pathway. Thus, 2DG-induced interference with cellular signaling rewired the expression of these endogenous phosphatases to promote 2DG resistance. Consequently, loss of the UPR or CWI pathways led to 2DG hypersensitivity. In contrast, DOG2 was transcriptionally repressed by glucose availability through the inhibition of the Snf1/AMPK pathway, and glucose-repression mutants were 2DG-resistant. The characterization and genome resequencing of spontaneous 2DG-resistant mutants revealed that DOG2 overexpression was a common strategy to achieve 2DG resistance. A human Dog2 homolog, HDHD1, also displays 2DG-6-phosphate phosphatase activity in vitro, and its overexpression conferred 2DG resistance in HeLa cells, suggesting potential interference with chemotherapies involving 2DG.

Microarray expression data of HT-29 cells treated with spautin-1 or buformin under 2DG- or tunicamycin-stressed conditions

Project description:Spautin-1 as well as buformin showed preferential cytotoxicity under 2-deoxy-D-glucose (2DG)-stressed, but not tunicamycin-stressed conditions in HT-29 cells. By a microarray-based transcription analyses, we previously identified an unfolded protein response (UPR) expression signature, consisting of 246 probes up- or down-regulated in glucose starvation- and 2DG-stressed HT-29 and other cancer cell lines. Thus, we compared the effects of spautin-1 and buformin on the UPR transcriptional program. The two UPR inhibitors partly canceled 2DG-induced, but not TM-induced changes in UPR expression signature, indicating that spautin-1 can indeed suppress the UPR transcriptional program under 2DG-stressed conditions.

Arginine reprograms metabolism in liver cancer via RBM39

Project description:Metabolic reprogramming is a hallmark of cancer. However, mechanisms underlying metabolic reprogramming and how altered metabolism in turn enhances tumorigenicity are poorly understood. Here, we report that arginine levels are elevated in hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) despite reduced expression of arginine synthesis genes, in murine and patient tumors. Tumor cells accumulate high levels of arginine due to increased uptake and reduced arginine-to-polyamine conversion. Importantly, the high levels of arginine promote tumor formation via further metabolic reprogramming, including changes in glucose, amino acid, nucleotide, and fatty acid metabolism. Mechanistically, arginine binds RNA-binding motif protein 39 (RBM39) to control expression of metabolic genes. RBM39-mediated upregulation of asparagine synthesis leads to enhanced arginine uptake, creating a positive feedback loop to sustain high arginine levels and oncogenic metabolism. Thus, arginine is a second messenger-like molecule that reprograms metabolism to promote tumor growth.

Compound C prevents the unfolded protein response during glucose deprivation through a mechanism independent of AMPK and BMP signaling.

Project description:Inhibiting the unfolded protein response (UPR) can be a therapeutic approach, especially for targeting the tumor microenvironment. We found that compound C (also known as dorsomorphin) prevented the UPR and exerted enhanced cytotoxicity during glucose deprivation. The UPR-inhibiting activity of compound C was not associated with either AMPK or BMP signaling inhibition. To induce the UPR, we treated HT1080 cells for 18 hours under ER stress conditions by adding 10 mM 2-Deoxy-D-glucose (2DG) to culture medium. UPR inhibitors (compound C, versipelostatin and phenformin) were added just before 2DG was added in medium. Total 8 samples were prepared for RNA extraction and hybridization on Affymetrix microarrays.

The multikinase inhibitor Sorafenib targets mitochondria and synergizes with glycolysis blockade for cancer cell killing.

Project description:Objective: identify novel and relevant aspects of Sorafenib action on liver cancer cells. We found that in rat hepatocholangiocarcinoma (LCSC-2) cells, exposure to the MEK/multikinase inhibitor sorafenib did not inhibit ERK phosphorylation nor induced appreciable cell death in the low micromolar range; instead, the drug elicited a raise of intracellular reactive oxygen species (ROS) accompanied by a severe decrease of oxygen consumption and intracellular ATP levels, all changes consistent with mitochondrial damage. Moreover, Sorafenib induced depolarization of isolated rat liver mitochondria, indicating a possible direct effect on the organelle. Microarray analysis of gene expression in sorafenib-trated cells revealed a metabolic reprogramming toward aerobic glycolysis, that likely accounts for resitance to drug toxicity in this cell line. Importantly, cytotoxicity was strongly potentiated by glucose withdrawal from the culture medium or by the glycolytic inhibitor 2-deoxy-glucose, a finding also confirmed in the highly malignant melanoma cell line B16F10. Mechanistic studies revealed that ROS are pivotal to cell killing by the Sorafenib + 2DG combination, and that a low content of intracellular oxidants is associated with resistance to the drug; instead, Thr172phosphorylation/activation of the AMP-activated protein kinase (AMPK), induced by Sorafenib, may exert protective effects, since cytotoxicity was enhanced by an AMPK specific inhibitor and prevented by the AMPK activator Metformin. Overall, this study identifies novel and relevant aspects of Sorafenib action on liver cancer cells, including mitochondrial damage, induction of ROS and a metabolic cell reprogramming towards “glucose addiction”, potentially exploitable in therapy.

BRAF activation by metabolic stress promotes glycolysis and survival, sensitizing NRASQ61 mutated melanomas to targeted therapy.

Project description:NRAS-mutated melanoma lacks an approved first-line treatment. Metabolic reprogramming is considered a novel target to control cancer; however, it is mostly unknow how the NRAS oncogene contributes to this cancer hallmark. Here, we show that NRASQ61-mutated melanomas harbor specific metabolic alterations that render cells sensitive to sorafenib upon metabolic stress. Mechanistically, these cells seem to depend on glucose metabolism, as glucose deprivation promotes the switch of the RAF isoform used from CRAF to BRAF. This process contributes to cell survival and sustains glucose metabolism through the phosphorylation of 6-phosphofructo-2-kinase/fructose-2,6-bisphosphatase 2/6- phosphofructo-2-kinase/fructose-2,6-bisphosph 3 (PFKFB2/PFKFB3) heterodimers by BRAF. In turn, this phosphorylation favors the allosteric activation of phosphofructokinase-1 (PFK1), generating a feedback loop linking glycolysis and the RAS signaling pathway. In vivo treatment of NRASQ61 mutant melanomas, including patient-derived xenografts, with the combination of 2-deoxy-D-glucose (2-DG) and sorafenib effectively inhibits tumor growth. Thus, we provide evidence of the contributions of NRAS oncogenes to metabolic rewiring and proof of principle for the treatment of NRAS-mutated melanoma with combinations of metabolic stress (glycolysis inhibitors) and already approved drugs such as sorafenib.
