Project description:We describe a unique regulation of the succinylacetone/PHD2/HIF-1α axis by a metabolic enzyme GSTZ1. The total RNA was isolated from HepG2 cells stably transfected with or without GSTZ1-KO and analyzed using RNA-seq. Our work demonstrates that GSTZ1-deficient promotes HCC angiogenesis through stabilizing HIF-1α due to succinylacetone accumulation. In addition, the combination of targeting HIF-1α and PD-L1 could limit tumorigenesis and progression for Gstz1-/-mice, thus providing a potential target for HCC therapy.

Project description:The identification of predictive markers to determine the premetastatic phase before metastasis is critical for developing effective strategies for early detection and prevention. By applying the dynamic network biomarker (DNB) approach to analyze time-series transcriptomic data from a pulmonary metastasis HCC mouse model, we revealed that the premetastatic phase occurred during the fourth week after implantation. A total of 142 DNB genes were identified as functionally important biomarkers of this critical phase, among which 60S ribosomal protein L6 (RPL6) was a core DNB member. RPL6 was significantly upregulated in HCC tissues with extrahepatic metastasis and was strongly correlated with poor prognosis in HCC patients. RPL6 promoted the invasion and metastasis of HCC cells, both in vitro and in vivo. Mechanistically, RPL6 directly bound to the HMGCS1 mRNA 3’UTR, a rate-limiting enzyme in cholesterol biosynthesis, thus increasing HMGCS1 mRNA stability and protein expression and subsequently elevating intracellular cholesterol level. Elevated cholesterol inhibited of the ubiquitin-dependent degradation of HIF-1α by binding to PHD2 and reducing PHD2-mediated hydroxylation of HIF-1α, which further resulted in HIF-1α signaling pathway activation. Moreover, RPL6, HMGCS1 and HIF-1α were coexpressed in HCC tissues with extrahepatic metastasis. Taken together, this study provides new insights into the dynamic transcriptome profiles of HCC pulmonary metastasis and establishes an important role for the RPL6-HMGCS1-HIF-1α axis in HCC metastasis, suggesting potential prognostic biomarkers and therapeutic targets in HCC.

Project description:Prolyl hydroxylase domain protein 2 (PHD2) is one of the intracellular oxygen sensors that mediates proteasomal degradation of hypoxia-inducible factor (HIF)-α via hydroxylation under normoxia. Because of its canonical function in the hypoxia signaling pathway, PHD2 is generally regarded as a tumor suppressor. However, the effects of PHD2 in tumorigenesis are not entirely dependent on HIF-α. Based on the data obtained from The Cancer Genome Atlas (TCGA) database, we found that the expression of PHD2 is upregulated in non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC), which accounts for approximately 80-85% of lung cancers, suggesting that PHD2 may play an important role in NSCLC. However, the function of PHD2 in NSCLC remains largely unknown. In this study, we established PHD2-deficient H1299 cells to investigate the function of PHD2 in NSCLC, and found that PHD2 suppressed cell proliferation and metabolism, but induced ROS levels in human NSCLC cells. Further results indicated that the function of PHD2 in NSCLC is dependent on its enzymatic activity and partially independent of HIF. Moreover, we performed RNA-seq and transcriptomics analysis to explore the underlying mechanisms, and identified some potential targets and pathways regulated by PHD2, apart from the canonical HIF-mediated hypoxia signaling pathway. These results provide some clues to uncover novel roles of PHD2 in lung cancer progression.

Project description:To investigate the detailed molecular mechanisms for the regulatory role of HIF-1α in colon, microarray gene expression analysis was performed on colon RNA isolated from 6- to 8-week-old Hif-1α+/+, Hif-1αLSL/LSL mice. Background & Aims: The progression and growth of solid tumors leads to a state where tumors outgrow their capacity for efficient oxygenation and nutrient uptake and an increase in tumor hypoxia. Tumor hypoxic response is mediated by hypoxia-inducible factor (HIF)-1a and HIF-2a. These transcription factors regulate a battery of genes that are critical for tumor oxygenation, tumor metabolism, and cell proliferation and survival. Therefore, inhibitors of HIF have been sought for as anti-neoplastic agents in several different kinds of cancers. Interestingly, in ischemic and inflammatory diseases of the intestine, activation of HIF-1a is beneficial, and can reduce intestinal inflammation. The efficacy of pharmacological agents that chronically activate HIF-1a are decreased due to the tumorigenic potential of HIF. However, recent advance in understanding HIF signaling have identified mechanisms, which could allow for isoform specific activators. Activation of HIF-2a increases colon carcinogenesis and progression in mouse models. However, the role of chronic HIF-1a activation is unclear in the progression in colon cancer. The present data demonstrates that activation of HIF-1a in epithelial cells does not increase colon carcinogens or progression in two mouse models of colon cancer, and provides the proof of principle that HIF-1a activation maybe safe as therapies for inflammatory bowel disease. Global gene expression profiling in colon RNAs isolated from 6- to 8-week-old Hif-1α+/+ (n=5, Shah 019) and Hif-1αLSL/LSL (n=5, Shah 020).

Project description:As an essential component of histone methyltransferase complex SET1/MLL, WDR5 participates in histone 3 lysine 4 methylation (H3K4me) and promotes transcription by generating an open chromatin structure and enabling better access to the transcriptional machinery. Moreover, WDR5 interacts with histone deacetylases (HDACs) to promotes histone deacetylation, which induces the compact state of nucleosome, thus represses DNA transcription. However, the modulation of WDR5 on histone methylation and acetylation is tissue- and context-specific, and this function has not been elucidated in cholangiocarcinoma yet.

Project description:Prolyl hydroxylase domain-containing protein 2 (PHD2) inhibition, which stabilizes hypoxia-inducible factor (HIF)-1α and thus triggers adaptation responses to hypoxia in cells, has become an important therapeutic target. Despite the proven high potency, small-molecule PHD2 inhibitors such as IOX2 may require a nanoformulation for favorable biodistribution to reduce off-target toxicity. A liposome formulation for improving the pharmacokinetics of an encapsulated drug while allowing a targeted delivery is a viable option. This study aimed to develop an efficient loading method that can encapsulate IOX2 and other PHD2 inhibitors with similar pharmacophore features in nanosized liposomes. Driven by a transmembrane calcium acetate gradient, a nearly 100% remote loading efficiency of IOX2 into liposomes was achieved with an optimized extraliposomal solution. The electron microscopy imaging revealed that IOX2 formed nanoprecipitates inside the liposome's interior compartments after loading. For drug efficacy, liposomal IOX2 outperformed the free drug in inducing the HIF-1α levels in cell experiments, especially when using a targeting ligand. This method also enabled two clinically used inhibitors-vadadustat and roxadustat-to be loaded into liposomes with a high encapsulation efficiency, indicating its generality to load other heterocyclic glycinamide PHD2 inhibitors. We believe that the liposome formulation of PHD2 inhibitors, particularly in conjunction with active targeting, would have therapeutic potential for treating more specifically localized disease lesions.
