DNA microarray analysis of HCT116 cells transfected with control or MYC siRNAs

ABSTRACT: Cancer cells alter their metabolism for the production of precursors of macromolecules. However, the control mechanisms underlying this reprogramming are poorly understood. Here, we show that metabolic reprogramming of colorectal cancer is caused chiefly by aberrant MYC expression. Multi-omics-based analyses of paired normal and tumor tissues from 275 patients with colorectal cancer revealed that metabolic alterations occur at the adenoma stage of carcinogenesis, in a manner not associated with specific gene mutations involved in colorectal carcinogenesis. MYC expression induced at least 215 metabolic reactions by changing the expression levels of 121 metabolic genes and 39 transporter genes. Further, MYC negatively regulated the expression of genes involved in mitochondrial biogenesis and maintenance but positively regulated genes involved in DNA and histone methylation. Knockdown of MYC in colorectal cancer cells reset the altered metabolism and suppressed cell growth. Moreover, inhibition of MYC target pyrimidine synthesis genes such as CAD, UMPS and CTPS blocked cell growth, and thus they are potential targets for colorectal cancer therapy.

Tumor cell-specific inhibition of MYC function using small molecule inhibitors of the HUWE1 ubiquitin ligase

Project description:Deregulated expression of MYC is a driver of colorectal carcinogenesis, necessitating novel strategies to inhibit MYC function. The ubiquitin ligase HUWE1 (HECTH9, ARFBP1, MULE) associates with both MYC and the MYC-associated protein MIZ1. We show here that HUWE1 is required for growth of colorectal cancer cells in culture and in orthotopic xenograft models. Using high throughput screening, we identify small molecule inhibitors of HUWE1, which inhibit MYC-dependent transactivation in colorectal cancer cells, but not in stem and normal colon epithelial cells. Inhibition of HUWE1 stabilizes MIZ1. MIZ1 globally accumulates on MYC target genes and contributes to repression of MYC-activated target genes upon HUWE1 inhibition. Our data show that transcriptional activation by MYC in colon cancer cells requires the continuous degradation of MIZ1 and identify a novel principle that allows for inhibition of MYC function in tumor cells. MIZ1 and MYC ChIPseq experiments in HUWE1 inhibitor-treated Ls174T cells as well as RNAseq experiments in HUWE1- or MIZ1-depleted Ls174T cells after HUWE1 inhibitor treatment. Sequencing was performed on an Illumina Genome Analyzer IIx.

Transcriptome analysis implicates MYC as a driver of early onset colorectal cancer

Project description:Despite a global decrease in colorectal cancer (CRC) incidence, the prevalence of early onset colorectal cancer (EOCRC), or those occurring in individuals before the age of 50, has been steadily increasing over the past several decades. When compared to later onset colorectal cancers (LOCRCs) in individuals over 50, our understanding of the genetic and molecular underpinnings of EOCRCs is limited. Here, we conducted transcriptomic analysis of patient-matched normal colonic segments and tumors to identify gene expression programs involved in carcinogenesis. Amongst differentially expressed genes, we found increased expression of the c-MYC (MYC) proto-oncogene and its downstream targets in tumor samples. We identify tumors with high and low differential MYC expression, and patients with high-MYC tumors were older and overweight or obese. We also detect elevated expression of the PVT1 long-non-coding RNA (lncRNA) in most tumors and find gains in copy number for both MYC and PVT1 gene loci in 35% of tumors evaluated. Our transcriptome analysis indicates that EOCRC can be sub-classified into groups based on differential MYC expression and suggests that MYC is a critical driver of most CRCs that develop in younger patients.

Hypoxia-induced cysteine metabolism reprogramming are crucial for the tumorigenesis of colorectal cancer [HCT116]

Project description:Metabolic reprogramming is a hallmark of human cancer and cancer-specific metabolism provide opportunities for cancer diagnosis, prognosis, and treatment. However, how metabolic pathways affect the initiation and progression of colorectal cancer remain largely unknown. Here, we showed cysteine is highly enriched in colorectal tumors compared with adjacent non-tumor tissues to promote tumorigenesis of CRC. Both cystine and cysteine imports are essential to maintain intracellular cysteine level and promote tumor growth and survival. Transporter genes of cystine and cysteine are all upregulated in colorectal cancer by tumor microenvironment induced ROS through transcription factor ATF4. Glutathione synthetase GSS is upregulated and increases cysteine to reduced glutathione flux to support tumor growth and survival in colorectal cancer. Depletion of cystine and cysteine by a recombinant cyst(e)inase effectively reduced the growth of colorectal tumors. Moreover, scavenging cystine and cysteine induces autophagy of colorectal cancer cells through mTOR-ULK signaling axis. With this study, we demonstrate that cysteine metabolism is a key signature of CRC metabolic reprogramming and targeting cysteine metabolism might be an effective approach to treat colon cancer.

Fat body-specific reduction of CTPS alleviates HFD-induced obesity

Project description:High-fat diet (HFD)-induced obesity is a multi-factorial disease including genetic, physiological, behavioral, and environmental components. Drosophila has emerged as an effective metabolic disease model. Cytidine 5'-triphosphate synthase (CTPS) is a crucial enzyme for the de novo synthesis of CTP, governing the cellular level of CTP and phospholipid synthesis. CTPS has been found to form filaments known as cytoophidia, which are evolutionarily conserved in bacteria, archaea, and eukaryotes. Here, we show that CTPS functions in fat bodies to regulate body weight and starvation resistance in Drosophila. HFD-induced obesity enhances CTPS transcription and lengthens cytoophidia in larval adipocytes. CTPS depletion in the fat body prevented HFD-induced obesity, including body weight gain, adipocyte expansion, and lipid accumulation, by inhibiting the PI3K-Akt-SREBP axis. A dominant-negative form of CTPS also inhibits adipocyte expansion and down-regulates lipogenic genes. As a result, our findings not only establish a functional link between CTPS and lipid homeostasis but also highlight a potential role of CTPS manipulation in the treatment of HFD-induced obesity.

Loss of enteric neuronal Ndrg4 promotes colorectal cancer via increased release of Nid1 and Fbln2

Project description:The N-Myc Downstream-Regulated Gene 4 (NDRG4), a prominent biomarker for colorectal cancer (CRC), is specifically expressed by enteric neurons. Considering that nerves are important members of the tumor microenvironment, we here establish different Ndrg4 knockout (Ndrg4-/-) CRC models and an in-direct co-culture of primary enteric nervous system (ENS) cells and intestinal organoids to identify whether the ENS, via NDRG4, affects intestinal tumorigenesis. Linking immunostainings and gastrointestinal motility (GI) assays, we show that absence of Ndrg4 does not trigger any functional or morphological GI-abnormalities. However, combining in vivo, in vitro and quantitative proteomics data, we uncover that Ndrg4 knockdown is associated with enlarged intestinal adenoma development and that organoid growth is boosted by the Ndrg4-/- ENS cell secretome, which is enriched for Nidogen-1 (Nid1) and Fibulin-2 (Fbln2). Moreover, NID1 and FBLN2 are expressed in enteric neurons, enhance tumorigenic capacities of CRC cells and are enriched in human CRC secretomes. Hence, we provide evidence that the ENS, via loss of Ndrg4, is involved in colorectal pathogenesis and that ENS-derived Nidogen-1 and Fibulin-2 enhance colorectal carcinogenesis.
