Project description:Normal stem cells undergo morphologic, epigenetic, and metabolic changes during cellular differentiation. Here, we report that glioblastoma stem cells (GSCs) display smaller nuclear size than differentiated progeny. Leveraging differential gene expression and proteomics to discover potential mediators of nuclear size regulation, we found that GSCs are enriched for a nuclear lamina-localized sterol reductase, Lamin B Receptor (LBR). LBR bridges two functions, genome organization and cholesterol synthesis, of which nuclear cholesterol synthesis mediates LBR regulation of GSC nuclear size. Targeting LBR increased nuclear size and decreased GSC viability and tumor initiation. Mass spectrometry defined an LBR interactome in GSCs with mediators of DNA damage repair (DDR) and R-loop resolution, including DEAD-Box Helicase 5 (DDX5). Consistently, targeting LBR induced double-strand DNA breaks (DSBs) and P53-dependent DDR. Genetic LBR loss reduced DDX5 expression and increased R-loops; pharmacologic LBR sterol reductase inhibition phenocopied LBR loss, increasing R-loops and DSBs with synergy with irradiation to inhibit GSC survival. Together, we propose that LBR regulates nuclear cholesterol synthesis, which contributes to the small GSC nuclear sizes and promotes efficient DNA damage repair.

Project description:Cholesterol has attracted significant attention as a possible lifespan regulator. It has been reported that serum cholesterol levels have an impact on mortality due to age-related disorders such as cardiovascular disease. Diet is also known to be an important lifespan regulator. Dietary restriction retards the onset of age-related diseases and extends lifespan in various organisms. Although cholesterol and dietary restriction are known to be lifespan regulators, it remains to be established whether cholesterol is involved in dietary restriction-induced longevity. Here, we show that cholesterol deprivation suppresses longevity induced by intermittent fasting, which is one of the dietary restriction regimens that effectively extend lifespan. We also found that cholesterol is required for the fasting-induced upregulation of transcriptional target genes such as the insulin/IGF-1 pathway effector DAF-16 and that cholesterol deprivation suppresses the long lifespan of the insulin/IGF-1 receptor daf-2 mutant. Remarkably, we found that cholesterol plays an important role in the fasting-induced nuclear accumulation of DAF-16. Moreover, knockdown of the cholesterol-binding protein NSBP-1, which has been shown to bind to DAF-16 in a cholesterol-dependent manner and to regulate DAF-16 activity, suppresses both fasting-induced longevity and DAF-16 nuclear accumulation. Furthermore, this suppression was not additive to the cholesterol deprivation-induced suppression, which suggests that NSBP-1 mediates, at least in part, the action of cholesterol to promote fasting-induced longevity and DAF-16 nuclear accumulation. These findings identify a novel role for cholesterol in the regulation of lifespan. Two independent replicates were performed. Total RNA was extracted with TRIzol (Invitrogen). The extracted RNA was purified with PureLink RNA Micro Kit (Invitrogen) and analyzed with Agilent 2100 Bioanalyzer to assess the RNA integrity. The microarray procedures were performed according to Affymetrix protocols. Hybridized arrays were scanned using an Affymetrix GeneChip Scanner.

Project description:How cells control the overall size of membrane-bound organelles is an important unanswered question of cell biology. Fission yeast cells maintain a nuclear size that is proportional to cellular size, resulting in a constant ratio between the nuclear and cellular volumes (N/C ratio). To shed light on nuclear size control we conducted a genome-wide visual screen of a fission yeast gene deletion collection for mutants altered in their N/C ratio, and found that defects in both nucleocytoplasmic mRNA transport and nuclear membrane proliferation alter the N/C ratio. Perturbing nuclear mRNA export causes general bulk accumulation of both mRNA and protein, and a N/C ratio increase which is dependent on new membrane synthesis. Dysregulation of nuclear membrane growth also results in an enlarged N/C ratio, and additionally generates an aberrant nuclear shape. We propose that both properly regulated nucleocytoplasmic transport and nuclear membrane growth are central for controlling nuclear size.

Project description:Nuclear metabolism and DNA damage response are intertwined processes, but the precise molecular connections remain elusive. Here, we delve into this crosstalk using as a model triple-negative breast cancer (TNBC), a subtype often prone to DNA damage accumulation. We reveal that the de novo purine synthesis enzyme Inosine monophosphate dehydrogenase 2 (IMPDH2) is enriched on chromatin in TNBC when compared to other subtypes. IMPDH2 chromatin localization is DNA damage dependent and IMPDH2 repression leads to DNA damage accumulation. On chromatin, IMPDH2 interacts and modulates Poly [ADP-ribose] polymerase 1 (PARP1) activity by controlling nuclear availability of nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide (NAD+) -a shared metabolic cofactor- to fine-tune the DNA damage response. However, when IMPDH2 is restricted to the nucleus, it depletes nuclear NAD+, leading to PARP1 cleavage and cell death. Our study identifies a non-canonical nuclear role for IMPDH2 that act as convergence point of nuclear metabolism and DNA damage response. # Contributed equally *Corresponding authors: sara.sdelci@crg.eu; marta.garciacao@crg.eu

Project description:Whole genome doubling (WGD) is a frequent event in cancer evolution associated with chromosomal instability, metastasis, and poor prognosis. While the genomic consequences of WGD are well documented, the effects of non-genetic alterations that accompany WGD, such as changes to cell and nuclear size, on tetraploid (4N) cancer cell physiology are less understood. Here, we show that cell and nuclear volume do not always scale with DNA content after WGD in cancer cells, resulting in 4N cells that differ in size. We find that small size is associated with enhanced cell fitness, mitotic fidelity, and tumorigenicity in 4N cancer cells and with poor patient survival in WGD-positive human cancers. Overall, these results suggest that cell and nuclear size contribute to the tumorigenic potential of 4N cancer cells and could be an important prognostic marker in human tumors that undergo WGD.

Project description:TCPOBOP (1,4-bis[2-(3,5-dichloropyridyloxy)]benzene) and PCN (pregnenolone 16α-carbonitrile) are inducers of drug metabolism through activation of nuclear receptors CAR (constitutive androstane receptor) and PXR (pregnane X receptor), respectively. Mouse experiment was designed to study the effect of CAR and PXR activation on cholesterol homeostasis genes and other genes, which are present on the Steroltalk v2 microarray. Treatments were combined with standard and high-cholesterol diet to observe the interference of high liver cholesterol on nuclear receptor transcription regulation. All experiments were done within the European sixth Framework program âSteroltalkâ (www.steroltalk.net). Results form these experiments give new knowledge about involvement of âxenosensorsâ CAR and PXR in regulation of endogenous liver metabolism. Animals were injected i.p. 3mg/kg TCPOBOP, 40 mg/kg PCN or vehicle (corn oil) in combination of one week of standard or 1% cholesterol diet prior tretament. After 24h they were sacrificed and total RNA was isolated from the livers. Each sample was hybridized with a reference sample to Steroltalk v2 microarrays.
