Project description:Metabolic pathways are plastic and rapidly change in response to stress or perturbation. Current metabolic profiling techniques require lysis of many cells, complicating the tracking of metabolic changes over time after stress in rare cells such as hematopoietic stem cells (HSCs). Here, we aimed to identify the key metabolic enzymes that define differences in glycolytic metabolism between steady-state and stress conditions in HSCs and elucidate their regulatory mechanisms. Through quantitative13C metabolic flux analysis of glucose metabolism using high-sensitivity glucose tracing and mathematical modeling, we found that HSCs activate the glycolytic rate-limiting enzyme phosphofructokinase (PFK) during proliferation and oxidative phosphorylation (OXPHOS) inhibition. Real-time measurement of adenosine triphosphate (ATP) levels in single HSCs demonstrated that proliferative stress or OXPHOS inhibition led to accelerated glycolysis via increased activity of PFKFB3, the enzyme regulating an allosteric PFK activator, within seconds to meet ATP requirements. Furthermore, varying stresses differentially activated PFKFB3 via PRMT1-dependent methylation during proliferative stress and via AMPK-dependent phosphorylation during OXPHOS inhibition. Overexpression ofPfkfb3induced HSC proliferation and promoted differentiated cell production, whereas inhibition or loss ofPfkfb3suppressed them. This study reveals the flexible and multilayered regulation of HSC glycolytic metabolism to sustain hematopoiesis under stress and provides techniques to better understand the physiological metabolism of rare hematopoietic cells.

Project description:Vascular smooth muscle cells (VSMCs) within atherosclerotic lesions undergo a phenotypic switching in a KLF4-dependent manner. Glycolysis plays important roles in transdifferentiation of somatic cells, however, it is unclear whether and how KLF4 mediates the link between glycolytic switch and VSMCs phenotypic transitions. Here, we show that KLF4 upregulation accompanies VSMCs phenotypic switching in atherosclerotic lesions. KLF4 enhances the metabolic switch to glycolysis through increasing PFKFB3 expression. Inhibiting glycolysis suppresses KLF4-induced VSMCs phenotypic switching, demonstrating that glycolytic shift is required for VSMCs phenotypic switching. Mechanistically, KLF4 upregulates expression of circCTDP1 and eEF1A2, both of which cooperatively promote PFKFB3 expression. TMAO induces glycolytic shift and VSMCs phenotypic switching by upregulating KLF4. Our study indicates that KLF4 mediates the link between glycolytic switch and VSMCs phenotypic transitions, suggesting that a previously unrecognized KLF4-eEF1A2/circCTDP1-PFKFB3 axis plays crucial roles in VSMCs phenotypic switching.

Project description:Aerobic glycolysis, which is also termed the Warburg effect, is one of the aberrant metabolic pathways in highly proliferating cells. Glycolysis provides glycolytic metabolites to support the generation of biomass, such as nucleotides, amino acids, and lipids. To date, no studies have explored interrelationships between glycolysis and other metabolic pathways. Phosphofructokinase-2/fructose-2,6-bisphosphatase 3 (PFKFB3) activates glycolysis by synthesizing fructose-2,6-bisphosphate (F2,6BP), which allosterically activates the rate-limiting enzyme 6-phosphofructo-1-kinase (PFK-1). In this study, we found that PFKFB3 directly interacts with and regulates the phosphorylation of carbamoyl-phosphate synthetase 2, aspartate transcarbamylase, and dihydroorotase (CAD), the enzyme catalyzing the first three steps of de novo pyrimidine synthesis. PFKFB3 inactivation reduced de novo pyrimidine synthesis, RNA and DNA production, and the growth of cancer and proliferative cells. Thus, the glycolytic activator PFKFB3 bridges glycolysis with pyrimidine synthesis, unites both glucose metabolism and nucleic acid metabolism, and contributes to cell proliferation under both physiological and pathological conditions.

Project description:We hypothesized that PFKFB3 inhibits fructose metabolism in pulmonary microvascular endothelial cells (PMVECs) and found that PFKFB3 knockout cells survive better than wild type cells in fructose-rich media, more so under hypoxia. Our findings indicate that PFKFB3 is a molecular switch that controls glucose versus fructose utilization in glycolysis and help to better understand lung endothelial cell metabolism during respiratory failure.

Project description:Overexpression of 6-phosphofructo-2-kinase/fructose-2,6-biphosphatase 3 (PFKFB3), a key molecule of glucose metabolism in cytoplasm, was found in various tumors. Emerging evidence suggested that PFKFB3 also located in nucleus and shown regulatory functions other than glycolysis. In this study, we found that PFKFB3 expression is associated with hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) growth and mainly located in the nucleus of tumor cells. PFKFB3 overexpression was associated with large tumor size, and poor survival of patients with HCC. Knockdown of PFKFB3 inhibited HCC growth, not only by reducing glucose consuming but also damaging DNA repair function leading to G2/M phase arrest and apoptosis. Therefore, we performed a cDNA microarray in PFKFB3 knockdown SMMC7721 cells.

Project description:Astrocytic metabolic reprogramming is an adaptation of metabolic patterns to meet increased energy demands, although the role after spinal cord injury (SCI) remains unclear. Analysis of single-cell RNA sequencing (scRNA-seq) data identified an increase in astrocytic glycolysis, while PFKFB3, a key regulator of glycolytic flux, was significantly upregulated following SCI. Loss of PFKFB3 in astrocytes prohibited neuronal energy supply and enhanced neuronal ferroptosis in vitro and inhibited astrogliosis, expanded neuroinflammation, exacerbated neuronal loss, and hindered functional recovery in vivo after SCI. Mechanistically, deubiquitinase UCHL1 plays a crucial role in stabilizing and enhancing PFKFB3 expression by cleaving K48-linked ubiquitin chains. Genetic deletion of Uchl1 inhibited locomotor recovery after SCI by suppression of PFKFB3-induced glycolytic reprogramming in astrocytes. Furthermore, the UCHL1/PFKFB3 axis increased lactate production, leading to enhanced histone lactylation and subsequent transcription of Uchl1 and several genes related to glycolysis, suggesting a glycolysis/H4K8la/UCHL1 positive feedback loop. These findings help to clarify the role of the UCHL1/PFKFB3/H4K8la loop in modulation of astrocytic metabolic reprogramming and reveal a potential target for treatment of SCI.
