Project description:Pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC) tumors have a nutrient-poor, desmoplastic, and highly innervated tumor microenvironment. Although neurons can release stimulatory factors to accelerate PDAC tumorigenesis, the metabolic contribution of peripheral axons has not been explored. We found that peripheral axons release serine (Ser) to support the growth of exogenous Ser (exSer)-dependent PDAC cells during Ser/Gly (glycine) deprivation. Ser deprivation resulted in ribosomal stalling on two of the six Ser codons, TCC and TCT, and allowed the selective translation and secretion of nerve growth factor (NGF) by PDAC cells to promote tumor innervation. Consistent with this, exSer-dependent PDAC tumors grew slower and displayed enhanced innervation in mice on a Ser/Gly-free diet. Blockade of compensatory neuronal innervation using LOXO-101, a Trk-NGF inhibitor, further decreased PDAC tumor growth. Our data indicate that axonal-cancer metabolic crosstalk is a critical adaptation to support PDAC growth in nutrient poor environments

Project description:Local translation within excitatory and inhibitory neurons is known to be involved in neuronal development and synaptic plasticity. Despite the extensive dendritic and axonal arborizations of monoaminergic neurons, the subcellular localization of protein synthesis has not been well-characterized in these populations. Here, we investigated mRNA localization in midbrain dopaminergic (mDA) neurons, cells with enormous axonal and dendritic projections, both of which can release dopamine (DA). Using highly-sensitive sequencing and imaging approaches in mDA axons, we found no evidence for axonal mRNA localization or translation. In contrast, we found that mDA neuronal dendritic projections into the substantia nigra reticulata (SNr) contain ribosomes and mRNAs encoding the DA synthesis, release, and reuptake machinery. Surprisingly, we found dendritic localization of mRNAs encoding synaptic vesicular release proteins in mDA neurons. Our results are consistent with a role for local translation in the regulation of DA transmission from dendrites, but not striatal axons. Finally, we defined a molecular signature of sparse mDA neurons in the SNr, including enrichment of an ER calcium pump previously undescribed in mDA neurons.

Project description:Terminating protein translation accurately and efficiently is critical for both protein fidelity and ribosome recycling for continued translation. The three bacterial release factors (RFs) play key roles: RF1 and 2 recognize stop codons and terminate translation; and RF3 promotes disassociation of bound release factors. Probing release factors mutations with reporter constructs containing programmed frameshifting sequences or premature stop codons had revealed a propensity for readthrough or frameshifting at these specific sites, but their effects on translation genome-wide have not been examined. We performed ribosome profiling on a set of isogenic strains with well-characterized release factor mutations to determine how they alter translation globally. Consistent with their known defects, strains with increasingly severe release factor defects exhibit increasingly severe accumulation of ribosomes over stop codons, indicative of an increased duration of the termination/release phase of translation. Release factor mutant strains also exhibit increased occupancy in the region following the stop codon at a significant number of genes. Our global analysis revealed that, as expected, translation termination is generally efficient and accurate, but that at a significant number of genes (≥ 50) the ribosome signature after the stop codon is suggestive of translation past the stop codon. Even native E. coli K-12 exhibits the ribosome signature suggestive of protein extension, especially at UGA codons, which rely exclusively on the reduced function RF2 allele of the K-12 strain for termination. Deletion of RF3 increases the severity of the defect. We unambiguously demonstrate readthrough and frameshifting protein extensions and their further accumulation in mutant strains for a few select cases. In addition to enhancing recoding, ribosome accumulation over stop codons disrupts attenuation control of biosynthetic operons, and may alter expression of some overlapping genes. Together, these functional alterations may either augment the protein repertoire or produce deleterious proteins.

Project description:Serine metabolism provides essential metabolites for cellular growth and proliferation, and also produces neurotransmitters. However, how serine metabolism coordinates with functional development of neurons remains unclear. We report neurotransmitter D-serine inhibit growth of immature cells. Metabolomic analysis of neural progenitors revealed that D-serine decreases glycine synthesis thereby diminishes one-carbon metabolism, in which L-serine is a crucial carbon donor. D-serine inhibits one-carbon metabolism by competing transport of cytosolic L-serine to mitochondria, which restrains proliferation and triggers apoptosis of neural progenitors as well as neural tumor cells, but not mature neurons, in vitro and ex vivo. This RNA-seq data supports the idea that D-serine inhibits polarization and growth/proliferation of immature neurons and further indicate that immature neurons counteracts D-serine-induced cellular stress through enhancing mitochondrial function, including energy synthesis.

Project description:Serine is a substrate for nucleotides, NADPH and glutathione (GSH) synthesis. Previous studies in cancer cells and lymphocytes have shown that serine-dependent one-carbon units are necessary for nucleotide production to support proliferation. Presently, it is unknown whether serine metabolism impacts the function of non-proliferative cells, such as inflammatory macrophages. We find that in macrophages, serine is required for optimal lipopolysaccharide (LPS) induction of IL-1β mRNA expression, but not inflammasome activation. The mechanism involves a requirement for glycine, which is made from serine, to support macrophage glutathione (GSH) synthesis. Cell-permeable GSH, but not the one-carbon donor formate, rescues IL-1β mRNA expression. Pharmacological inhibition of de novo serine synthesis in vivo decreased LPS induction of IL-1β levels and improved survival in an LPS-driven model of sepsis in mice. Our study reveals that serine metabolism is necessary for GSH synthesis to support IL-1β cytokine production.

Project description:Proliferating tumor cells use aerobic glycolysis to support their high metabolic demands. Paradoxically, increased glycolysis is often accompanied by expression of the lower activity PKM isoform, effectively constraining lower glycolysis. Here, we report the discovery of novel PKM activators with a unique allosteric binding mode. Characterization of how these compounds impact cancer cells revealed an unanticipated link between glucose and amino acid metabolism. PKM activation resulted in a metabolic rewiring of cancer cells manifested by a profound dependency on the non-essential amino acid serine for continued cell proliferation. Induction of serine auxotrophy by PKM activation was accompanied by reduced carbon flow into the serine biosynthetic pathway and increased expression of high affinity serine transporters. These data support the hypothesis that PKM expression confers metabolic flexibility to cancer cells that allows adaptation to nutrient stress. A549 cancer cells were treated with compound-16 for up to 24 hours in the presence and absence of serine in the media.
