Microarray analysis in SREBP2-knockdown cells under low pH (pH 6,8) culture conditions

ABSTRACT: The conditions of the tumor microenvironment, such as hypoxia and nutrient starvation, play critical roles in cancer progression. However, the role of acidic extracellular pH in cancer progression is not studied as extensively as that of hypoxia. Here, we show that extracellular acidic pH (pH 6.8) triggered activation of sterol regulatory element-binding protein 2 (SREBP2) by stimulating nuclear translocation and promoter binding to its targets along with intracellular acidification. Interestingly, inhibition of SREBP2, but not SREBP1, suppressed the upregulation of low pH-induced cholesterol biosynthesis-related genes. Moreover, acyl-CoA synthetase short-chain family member 2 (ACSS2), a direct SREBP2 target, provided a growth advantage to cancer cells under acidic pH. Furthermore, acidic pH-responsive SREBP2 target genes were associated with reduced overall survival of cancer patients. Thus, our findings show that SREBP2 is a key transcriptional regulator of metabolic genes and progression of cancer cells, partly in response to extracellular acidification.

The G protein-coupled pH-sensing receptor OGR1 is a regulator of intestinal inflammation

Project description:OGR1 is a pH sensing G protein-coupled receptor involved in intestinal homeostasis and inflammation. Up-regulation of genes, mediated by OGR1, in response to extracellular acidification were enriched for inflammation, immune response, actin cytoskeleton and cell adhesion pathways. Microarray profiling was performed to compare global gene expression of Ogr1 KO and WT residential peritoneal macrophages in response to an acidic pH shift (pH 6.7, 24 h)

HUVECs with endogenous or overexpressed GPR4 treated with pH 8.4 (control) or pH 6.4 for 5 h

Project description:Acidic tissue microenvironment is commonly found in a variety of pathophysiological conditions. GPR4 is a proton-sensing G protein-coupled receptor that is fully activated by acidic extracellular pH but has lesser activity at the physiological pH 7.4 and minimal activity at more alkaline pH. To determine the effects of GPR4 activation by acidosis on vascular endothelial cells, we examined the global gene expression of the acidosis response in primary human umbilical vein endothelial cells (HUVEC) with varying level of GPR4. HUVEC with endogenous or overexpressed GPR4 level (designated as HUVEC/Vector & HUVEC/GPR4 cells). Two treatment conditions: pH 6.4 vs. pH 8.4 for 5 h. Biological replicates: 4 HUVEC/Vector replicates (pH6.4 vs pH 8.4), and 4 HUVEC/GPR4 replicates (pH6.4 vs pH 8.4).

Effect of SREBP2 silencing on gene expression of THP-1 monocytes under hypoxic condition

Project description:Monocyte infiltrate hypoxic tumor center to initiate pro-tumorigenic immune response and angiogenesis, however the detailed mechanism and responsible metabolic pathway was not investigated. Here we report that monocyte macrophage lineage cells are uniquely responsive to hypoxia compared to cancer cells and fibroblasts, upregulating cholesterol biosynthesis through SREBP2 regulation. Disruption of SREBP2 offsets upregulation of hypoxia-induced cholesterol biosynthesis gene expression. In addition, hypoxia-induced SREBP2 activation is lineage-dependent, and this activation is lost when monocyte matures to macrophage, suggesting a metabolic switch during differentiation. Finally, inhibiting cholesterol synthesis using statin reduces tumor burden and infiltration of pro-tumor immune cells into tumor center. In summary, SREBP2 regulated hypoxic response in monocytes are essential for tumor growth and is a potent drug target for novel therapeutic strategies.

IL-2 is inactivated by the acidic pH environment of tumors enabling engineering of a pH-selective mutein (RNA-Seq)

Project description:Cytokines interact with their receptors in the extracellular space to control immune responses. How the physicochemical properties of the extracellular space influence cytokine signaling is incompletely elucidated. Here, we show that the activity of interleukin (IL)-2, a critical cytokine in T cell immunity, is profoundly affected by pH, limiting IL-2 signaling within the acidic environment of tumors. Generation of lactic acid by tumors limits STAT5 activation, effector differentiation and anti-tumor immunity by CD8+ T cells and renders high-dose IL-2 therapy poorly effective. Directed evolution enabled selection of a pH-selective IL-2 mutein (Switch-2). Switch-2 binds the IL-2 receptor subunit IL-2Ra with higher affinity, triggers STAT5 activation and drives CD8+ T cell effector function more potently at acidic pH than at neutral pH. Consequently, high-dose Switch-2 therapy induces potent immune activation and tumor rejection with reduced on-target toxicity in normal tissues. Finally, we find that sensitivity to pH is a generalizable property of a diverse range of cytokines with broad relevance to immunity and immunotherapy in healthy and diseased tissues.

pH dependence of a GPR4 selective antagonist hampers its therapeutic potential

Project description:Inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) is characterized by chronic mucosal inflammation of the gastrointestinal tract and is associated with extracellular acidification of mucosal tissue. Several extracellular pH-sensing receptors, including G protein-coupled receptor 4 (GPR4), play an important role in the regulation of inflammatory and immune responses and GPR4 deficiency has been shown to be protective in IBD animal models. To confirm the therapeutic potential of GPR4 antagonism in IBD, we tested Compound 13, a selective GPR4 antagonist, in the IL10-/- mouse model of colitis. Despite reasonable bioavailability, Compound 13 treatment did not improve colitis in this model and there were no signs of target engagement. Interestingly, Compound 13 behaved as an “orthosteric” antagonist, i.e., its potency was pH-dependent and mostly inactive at pH levels lower than 6.8 with preferential binding to the inactive conformation of GPR4. Mutagenesis studies confirmed Compound 13 likely binds to the conserved orthosteric binding site in G protein-coupled receptors, where a histidine sits in GPR4 likely preventing Compound 13 binding when protonated in acidic conditions. While the exact mucosal pH in the human disease and relevant IBD mice models is unknown, it is well established that the degree of acidosis is positively correlated with the degree of inflammation, suggesting Compound 13 is not an ideal tool to study the role of GPR4 in moderate-to-severe inflammatory conditions.
