Project description:Bile acid (BA) metabolism is tightly controlled by nuclear receptor signaling to coordinate regulation of BA synthetic enzymes and transporters. Here we reveal a molecular cascade consisting of the antiapoptotic protein BCL2, nuclear receptor Shp, and long non-coding RNA (lncRNA) H19 to maintain BA homeostasis. Bcl2 was overexpressed in liver of C57BL/6J mice using adenovirus mediated gene delivery for two weeks. Hepatic overexpression of Bcl2 caused drastic accumulation of serum BA and bilirubin levels and dysregulated BA synthetic enzymes and transporters. Bcl2 reactivation triggered severe liver injury, fibrosis and inflammation, which were accompanied by a significant induction of H19. Bcl2 induced rapid SHP protein degradation via the activation of caspase-8 pathway. The induction of H19 in Bcl2 overexpressed mice was contributed by a direct loss of Shp transcriptional repression. H19 knockdown or Shp re-expression largely rescued Bcl2-induced liver injury. Strikingly different than Shp, the expression of Bcl2 and H19 was hardly detectable in adult liver but was markedly increased in fibrotic/cirrhotic human and mouse liver. We demonstrated for the first time a detrimental effect of Bcl2 and H19 associated with cholestatic liver fibrosis and an indispensable role of Shp to maintain normal liver function.

Project description:Lysosome-mediated macroautophagy, including lipophagy, is activated under nutrient deprivation but is repressed after feeding. We show that, unexpectedly, feeding activates intestinal autophagy/lipophagy in a manner dependent on both the orphan nuclear receptor, small heterodimer partner (SHP/NR0B2), and the gut hormone, fibroblast growth factor-15/19 (FGF15/19). Furthermore, postprandial intestinal triglycerides (TGs) and apolipoprotein-B48 (ApoB48), the TG-rich chylomicron marker, were elevated in SHP-knockout and FGF15-knockout mice. Genomic analyses of the mouse intestine indicated that SHP partners with the key lysosomal activator, transcription factor-EB (TFEB) to upregulate the transcription of autophagy/lipolysis network genes after feeding. FGF19 treatment activated lipophagy, reducing TG and ApoB48 levels in HT29 intestinal cells, which was dependent on TFEB. Mechanistically, feeding-induced FGF15/19 signaling increased the nuclear localization of TFEB and SHP via PKC beta/zeta-mediated phosphorylation, leading to increased transcription of the TFEB/SHP target lipophagy genes, Ulk1 and Atgl. Collectively, these results demonstrate that paradoxically after feeding, FGF15/19-activated SHP and TFEB activate gut lipophagy, limiting postprandial TGs. As excess postprandial lipids cause dyslipidemia and obesity, the FGF15/19-SHP-TFEB axis that reduces intestinal TGs via lipophagic activation provides promising therapeutic targets for obesity-associated metabolic disease.

Project description:Lysosome-mediated macroautophagy, including lipophagy, is activated under nutrient deprivation but is repressed after feeding. We show that feeding unexpectedly activates intestinal lipophagy in a manner dependent on both the orphan nuclear receptor, small heterodimer partner (SHP/NR0B2), and the late fed-state gut hormone, fibroblast growth factor-15/19 (FGF15/19). Postprandial intestinal triglycerides (TGs) and apolipoprotein-B48 (ApoB48), the TG-rich chylomicron marker, were elevated in SHP-knockout and FGF15-knockout mice. Genomic analyses in mouse intestine revealed that SHP partners with the key lysosomal activator, transcription factor-EB (TFEB), upregulating autophagy/lipolysis network genes after feeding. In HT29 intestinal cells, FGF19 treatment activated lipophagy in a manner dependent on both SHP and TFEB, reducing TG and ApoB48 levels. Mechanistically, feeding-induced FGF15/19 signaling increases nuclear localization of TFEB and SHP via PKCβ/ζ-mediated phosphorylation, leading to transcriptional induction of Ulk1 and Atgl. Collectively, these results demonstrate that after feeding, FGF15/19-activated SHP and TFEB paradoxically activate gut lipophagy, limiting postprandial TG levels.

Project description:In analyzing transcriptomic data from a clinical trial of neoadjuvant-intensive Androgen Deprivation Therapy, we observed increased mRNA expression of the hallmark antiapoptotic gene BCL2 in the prostate tumors of treated patients versus those of untreated patients. We showed that BCL2 overexpressed LNCaP cells exhibited resistance to enzalutamide, indicating that BCL2-overexpression leads to castration resistance and cellular plasticity.We performed RNA sequencing on BCL2 overexpressed LNCaP cells tretaed with R1881 to determine BCL2 regulated AR signaling and overed that BCL2 overexpression may alter AR-pathway.

Project description:Activation of the MYC oncogene is common in B-cell lymphomas, and frequently associated with compensatory events that dampen Myc-induced apoptosis, such as over-expression of anti-apoptotic Bcl2-family proteins. For example, concurrent translocations of MYC and BCL2 in a subset of Diffuse large B-cell lymphoma (DLBCL) lead to the high-grade “double-hit” lymphoma subtype (DHL), characterized by dismal prognosis in the face of current front-line regimens, thus calling for the pursuit of tailored therapeutic strategies. Here, we show that Myc and Bcl2 modulate the sensitivity of B-cells to IACS-010759, a selective inhibitor of mitochondrial respiratory complex I. Myc activation in non-transformed lymphoid precursors suppressed endogenous Bcl2 and sensitized the cells to IACS-010759-induced apoptosis. Treatment with the Bcl2 inhibitor venetoclax also sensitized to IACS-010759, while overexpression of Bcl-2 was protective. IACS-010759 engaged an ATF4-driven Integrated Stress Response (ISR) with dual anti- and pro-apoptotic effects, the latter mediated by the CHOP transcription factor, which contributed to selective killing of Myc-overexpressing cells. In line with the above data, IACS-010759 and venetoclax synergized in killing human DHL cells, and showed strong combinatorial effects in a pre-clinical setting. In a Bcl2-negative Burkitt’s lymphoma cell line, instead, IACS-010759 synergized with the Mcl-1 inhibitor S63845. Altogether, our data point to the combination of IACS-010759 with distinct Bcl2-family inhibitors for therapeutic reactivation of the intrinsic apoptotic pathway in Myc-associated B-cell lymphomas

Project description:SOX9 was identified as a prognostic biomarker particularly in IGH-BCL2 translocated germinal center B cell (GCB) subtypes of the diffuse large B cell lymphoma (DLBCL) and plays a vital role in lymphomagenesis. However, the molecular mechanism that modulating the aberrant expression of SOX9 in this DLBCL subset remains unknown. We have demonstrated that SOX9 enhanced IGH-BCL2 positive DLBCL subset resistance to either chemotherapy or BCL2 inhibitor. Moreover, we found that inhibition of BCL2 downregulates SOX9 in IGH-BCL2 positive DLBCL subset. We further identified that IRF4 is a key regulator to mediate BCL2 induced SOX9 expression, alongside with the chip-seq confirmed that IRF4 is a key transcription factor for SOX9 in DLBCL. In addition, BCL2 promote IRF4 entry into the nucleus by enhancing its protein stability, via downregulating of proteosome ubiquitination process, and, therefore, enforce SOX9-mediated phenotypes. Finally, we showed in DLBCL cell lines and xenografted mice model that in vivo inhibition of IRF4 with hIRF4 antisense oligonucleotide (ASO) repressed lymphomagenesis and DLBCL chemoresistance. Altogether, our data support the conclusion that IRF4 plays an essential role in BCL2 induced upregulation of SOX9 expression, and targeting IRF4 may represent a promising therapeutic strategy to cure relapse and refractory DLBCL in the future.

Project description:Circadian control of nutrient availability is critical to efficiently meet the energetic demands of an organism. Production of bile acids (BAs), which facilitate digestion and absorption of nutrients, is a major regulator of this process. Here we identify a KLF15-Fgf15 signalling axis that regulates circadian BA production. Systemic Klf15 deficiency disrupted circadian expression of key BA synthetic enzymes, tissue BA levels and triglyceride/cholesterol absorption. Studies in liver-specific Klf15-knockout mice suggested a non-hepatic basis for regulation of BA production. Ileal Fgf15 is a potent inhibitor of BA synthesis. Using a combination of biochemical, molecular and functional assays (including ileectomy and bile duct catheterization), we identify KLF15 as the first endogenous negative regulator of circadian Fgf15 expression. Elucidation of this novel pathway controlling circadian BA production has important implications for physiologic control of nutrient availability and metabolic homeostasis.
