Project description:Adenine phosphoribosyltransferase (APRT) deficiency is an autosomal recessive disorder that causes accumulation of 2,8-dihydroxyadenine (DHA) in the urinary tract, leading to kidney stones and chronic kidney disease. Progression to end-stage kidney disease can occur without timely treatment. The xanthine oxidoreductase inhibitors, allopurinol and febuxostat, block DHA generation and halt or delay stone formation and disease progression. Some patients cannot tolerate these drugs, necessitating new therapeutic approaches. This study aimed to investigate how DHA influences structural and molecular changes in HK-2, HEK293, and MDCK kidney cells. DHA exposure reduced cell viability and impaired migration in all cell lines. Increased expression of the adhesion protein CD44 was observed in HEK293 and HK-2 cells, adjacent to DHA crystals. Transepithelial electrical resistance measurements of MDCK cells indicated reduced epithelial integrity following DHA exposure. RNA sequencing of DHA-treated HK-2 cells revealed gene expression changes, with upregulation of TNF-α and mTORC1 signaling and downregulation of epithelial–mesenchymal transition and oxidative phosphorylation. Functional enrichment analysis highlighted pathways related to cell cycle regulation, inflammation, and metabolic processes. These findings show that dose-dependent toxic effects of DHA toxicity interrupt cell migration and epithelial integrity. CD44 may contribute to crystal adhesion, making it a potential therapeutic target in DHA crystal nephropathy.

Project description:Aberrant production and/or function of multiple host systemic factors (e.g., metabolic and immune-inflammatory mediators) act in concert to promote a âtumorigenicâ host milieu that directly promotes an aggressive malignant phenotype as well as drug resistance. Hence, strategies with the capacity to simultaneously act across multiple host systemic pathways may be required to optimize therapeutic outcomes in solid tumors. We hypothesized that chronic aerobic training, a pleiotropic whole-body intervention, modulates multiple systemic host pathways that, in turn, effectively alters cancer cell phenotype in vitro. Plasma samples from patients with solid tumors exposed to chronic aerobic training or sedentary control were comprehensively characterized for changes in immune, inflammatory, and metabolic pathways. Compared with sedentary control, aerobic training caused significant reductions in interleukin (IL)-4, macrophage inflammatory protein-1 beta (MIP1-β), vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF), tumor necrosis factor-alpha (TNF-α), and hepatocyte growth factor (HGF). There were no significant changes in leukocyte phenotype or any plasma metabolite signatures. Exposure of estrogen receptor (ER) distinct human breast cancer cell lines (MCF-7 and MDA-MB-231) to post-intervention serum from breast cancer patients exposed to aerobic training caused marked increases in proliferation, migration, and apoptosis, compared to control patient serum. Only the combination of cytokines significantly reduced in plasma following aerobic training recapitulated the phenotype observed with patient serum in MCF-7 cells whereas only the single addition of MIP-1β or HGF significantly increased apoptosis in MDA-MB-231 cells. Co-culturing of MDA-MB-231 cells with patient exercise serum and a HGF neutralizing antibody increased proliferation and completely abrogated exercise serum-induced apoptosis. Finally, whole-genome microarray of MDA-MB-231 cells exposed to exercise or control patient serum revealed differential modulation of 310 genes including PTEN, CDK3, and IGFBP1. Our findings indicate the widespread potential of chronic aerobic training to modulate host immune-inflammatory systemic factors in patients with solid tumors. Modulation of such pathways directly alters breast cancer phenotypes providing novel insight into the molecular pathways by which exercise may inhibit malignant progression. MDA-MB-231 cells were plated at 250,000 cells/well in triplicate with 10% FBS in 6-well plates and left overnight to adhere. Media was suctioned off and replaced with serum free media. Patient serum was then added to the wells at a 10% final concentration and RNA was harvested using Qiagen RNeasy kit after 4 days.

Project description:Cancer cells rely on ATP-citrate lyase (Acly)-derived acetyl-CoA for lipid biogenesis and proliferation, marking Acly as promising therapeutic target. However, inhibitors may have side effects on tumor-associated macrophages (TAMs). TAMs are innate immune cells abundant in the tumor microenvironment (TME) and play central roles in tumorigenesis, progression and therapy response. Since macrophage Acly deletion was previously shown to elicit macrophages with a potential anti-tumor phenotype in vivo, we hypothesized that Acly targeting may elicit anti-tumor responses in macrophages, whilst inhibiting cancer cell proliferation. Here, we used a myeloid-specific knockout model to validate that absence of Acly decreases IL-4-induced macrophage activation. Using two distinct tumor models, we demonstrate that Acly deletion slightly alters tumor immune composition and TAM phenotype in a tumor type-dependent manner without affecting tumor growth. Together, our results indicate that targeting Acly in macrophages does not have detrimental effects on myeloid cells.

Project description:ABSTRACT Adoptive transfer of tumor epitope reactive T cells is a promising strategy to control tumor growth. However, chronically stimulated T cells expanded for adoptive cell transfer (ACT) are susceptible to cells death in an oxidative tumor microenvironment. Since oxidation of cell surface thiols (c-SH) also alters functionality of proteins, we hypothesized that increased level of thioredoxin, an anti-oxidant molecule that facilitates reduction of proteins by cysteine thioldisulfide exchange, in T cells will result in sustained anti-tumor function. Using Pmel-Trx1 transgenic mouse derived splenic T cells we observed higher c-SH expression that inversely correlated with ROS, and susceptibility to TCR restimulation or oxidation mediated cell death. These Trx1 overexpressing T cells showed CD62Lhi central memory-like (Tcm) phenotype with reduced glucose uptake (2-NBDGlo) and effector function (IFNγlo). Further, using tumor reactive T cells cultured in presence of recombinant Trx resulted in increased dependence of T cells on mitochondrial metabolism and led to improved tumor control. Thus, strategies to increase antioxidant capacity of anti-tumor T cells modulate its immune-metabolic phenotype leading to improved immunotherapeutic control of established tumors.
