Project description:Metabolic reprogramming is associated with myeloid-derived suppressor cell (MDSC) immunosuppressive function. Here, we outline the process for acquiring MDSCs from human and murine sources for subsequent analysis of fatty acid oxidation, oxidative phosphorylation, and glycolysis using the Seahorse XFe 96 Analyzer. Murine MDSCs can be isolated directly from tumor-bearing mice or derived through IL-6 and GM-CSF culture of bone marrow cells from non-tumor-bearing mice. To generate human MDSCs, peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMCs) can be cultured with IL-6 and GM-CSF. For complete details on the use and execution of this protocol, please refer to Mohammadpour et al. (2021).

Project description:KRAS is the most frequently mutated oncogene in human lung adenocarcinomas (hLUAD), and activating mutations frequently co-occur with loss-of-function mutations in TP53 or STK11/LKB1. However, mutation of all three genes is rarely observed in hLUAD, even though engineered comutation is highly aggressive in mouse lung adenocarcinoma (mLUAD). Here, we provide a mechanistic explanation for this difference by uncovering an evolutionary divergence in the regulation of triosephosphate isomerase (TPI1). In hLUAD, TPI1 activity is regulated via phosphorylation at Ser21 by the salt inducible kinases (SIK) in an LKB1-dependent manner, modulating flux between the completion of glycolysis and production of glycerol lipids. In mice, Ser21 of TPI1 is a Cys residue that can be oxidized to alter TPI1 activity without a need for SIKs or LKB1. Our findings suggest this metabolic flexibility is critical in rapidly growing cells with KRAS and TP53 mutations, explaining why the loss of LKB1 creates a liability in these tumors.SignificanceUtilizing phosphoproteomics and metabolomics in genetically engineered human cell lines and genetically engineered mouse models (GEMM), we uncover an evolutionary divergence in metabolic regulation within a clinically relevant genotype of human LUAD with therapeutic implications. Our data provide a cautionary example of the limits of GEMMs as tools to study human diseases such as cancers. This article is highlighted in the In This Issue feature, p. 799.

Project description:Non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) is heterogeneous in the genetic and environmental parameters that influence cell metabolism in culture. Here, we assessed the impact of these factors on human NSCLC metabolism in vivo using intraoperative (13)C-glucose infusions in nine NSCLC patients to compare metabolism between tumors and benign lung. While enhanced glycolysis and glucose oxidation were common among these tumors, we observed evidence for oxidation of multiple nutrients in each of them, including lactate as a potential carbon source. Moreover, metabolically heterogeneous regions were identified within and between tumors, and surprisingly, our data suggested potential contributions of non-glucose nutrients in well-perfused tumor areas. Our findings not only demonstrate the heterogeneity in tumor metabolism in vivo but also highlight the strong influence of the microenvironment on this feature.

Project description:Long-range mRNA transport is crucial for the spatio-temporal regulation of gene expression, and its malfunction is linked to neurological disorders. The pentameric FERRY Rab5 effector complex is the molecular link between mRNA and the early endosome in mRNA intracellular distribution. Here, we determine the cryo-EM structure of the human FERRY complex, composed of Fy-1 to Fy-5. The structure reveals a clamp-like architecture, in which two arm-like appendages, each consisting of Fy-2 and a Fy-5 dimer, protrude from the central Fy-4 dimer. We demonstrate that the coiled-coil domains of Fy-2 are flexible and project into opposite directions from the FERRY complex core. While the C-terminal coiled-coil acts as binding region for Fy-1/3 and Rab5, both coiled-coils together with Fy-5 bind mRNA. Thus, Fy-2 serves as binding hub that connects not only all five complex subunits, but also mediates the binding to mRNA and to the early endosome via Rab5. The FERRY structure provides novel mechanistic insight into long-distance mRNA transport.

Project description:Background:The protective effect of selenium (Se) on cadmium (Cd) toxicity is well documented, but underlying mechanisms are unclear.Methods:Male mice fed standard diet were given Cd (CdCl2, 18 μmol/L) in drinking water with or without Se (Na2SeO4, 20 μmol/L) for 16 weeks. Lungs were analyzed for Cd concentration, transcriptomics and metabolomics. Data were analyzed with biostatistics, bioinformatics, pathway enrichment analysis, and combined transcriptome-metabolome-wide association study.Results:Mice treated with Cd had higher lung Cd content (1.7 ± 0.4 pmol/mg protein) than control mice (0.8 ± 0.3 pmol/mg protein) or mice treated with Cd and Se (0.4 ± 0.1 pmol/mg protein). Gene set enrichment analysis of transcriptomics data showed that Se prevented Cd effects on inflammatory and myogenesis genes and diminished Cd effects on several other pathways. Similarly, Se prevented Cd-disrupted metabolic pathways in amino acid metabolism and urea cycle. Integrated transcriptome and metabolome network analysis showed that Cd treatment had a network structure with fewer gene-metabolite clusters compared to control. Centrality measurements showed that Se counteracted changes in a group of Cd-responsive genes including Zdhhc11, (protein-cysteine S-palmitoyltransferase), Ighg1 (immunoglobulin heavy constant gamma-1) and associated changes in metabolite concentrations.Conclusion:Co-administration of Se with Cd prevented Cd increase in lung and prevented Cd-associated pathway and network responses of the transcriptome and metabolome. Se protection against Cd toxicity in lung involves complex systems responses.General significance:Environmental Cd stimulates proinflammatory and profibrotic signaling. The present results indicate that dietary or supplemental Se could be useful to mitigate Cd toxicity.

Project description:A mesenchymal cell activation is a hallmark event of pulmonary fibrosis. Alveolar type 2 (AT2) cells are progenitor cells that maintain alveolar homeostasis, and their damage is assumed to be an initiating event for pulmonary fibrosis. However, the interaction between the lung fibrogenic microenvironment and AT2 cell dynamics remains to be elucidated. Here, we report a unique role of the lung fibrogenic microenvironment, where cell type-specific tissue reconstruction is achieved by exogenous cell transplantation. We found that in the lung fibrogenic microenvironment the AT2 cell pool was depleted, whereas mesenchymal cells could promote intact AT2 cell proliferation in vitro. Furthermore, exogenously transplanted AT2 cells formed alveolar colonies and ameliorated pulmonary fibrosis. Exogenous tumor cells formed tumor nests with relevant histological and transcriptional properties. Human primary cells were adaptable to this microenvironment, facilitating epithelial cell-targeted therapy in pulmonary fibrosis and the establishment of patient-derived xenografts for precision medicine in lung cancer.
