Project description:Metabolic reprogramming is critical for tumor initiation and progression. However, the exact impact of specific metabolic changes on cancer progression is poorly understood. Here, we integrate multimodal analyses of primary and metastatic clonally-related clear cell renal cancer cells (ccRCC) grown in physiological media to identify key stage-specific metabolic vulnerabilities. We show that a VHL loss-dependent reprogramming of branched-chain amino acid catabolism sustains the de novo biosynthesis of aspartate and arginine enabling tumor cells with the flexibility of partitioning the nitrogen of the amino acids depending on their needs. Importantly, we identify the epigenetic reactivation of argininosuccinate synthase (ASS1), a urea cycle enzyme suppressed in primary ccRCC, as a crucial event for metastatic renal cancer cells to acquire the capability to generate arginine, invade in vitro and metastasize in vivo. Overall, our study uncovers a mechanism of metabolic flexibility occurring during ccRCC progression, paving the way for the development of novel stage-specific therapies.

Project description:Postoperative insulin resistance refers to the phenomenon that the body’s glucose uptake stimulated by insulin is reduced due to stress effects such as trauma or the inhibitory effect of insulin on liver glucose output is weakened after surgery.
There is a clear link between postoperative insulin resistance and poor perioperative prognosis. Therefore, exploring interventions to reduce postoperative stress insulin resistance, stabilize postoperative blood glucose, and reduce postoperative complications are clinical problems that need to be solved urgently. In recent years, research on branched-chain amino acids and metabolic diseases has become a hot spot. Studies have found that in the rat model, preoperatively given a high branched-chain amino acid diet can inhibit postoperative insulin resistance and stabilize blood glucose levels. This research plan is to try to add branched-chain amino acids before surgery to observe the occurrence of postoperative insulin resistance in patients.

Project description:Elevated branched chain amino acids (BCAAs) are associated with obesity and insulin resistance. How long-term dietary BCAAs impact late-life health and lifespan is unknown. Here, we show that when dietary BCAAs are varied against a fixed, isocaloric macronutrient background, long-term exposure to high BCAA diets led to hyperphagia, obesity and reduced lifespan. These effects were not due to elevated BCAA per se or hepatic mTOR activation, but rather the shift in balance between dietary BCAAs and other AAs, notably tryptophan and threonine. Increasing the ratio of BCAAs to these AAs resulted in hyperphagia and was linked to central serotonin depletion. Preventing hyperphagia by calorie restriction or pair-feeding averted the health costs of a high BCAA diet. Our data highlight a role for amino acid quality in energy balance and show that health costs of chronic high BCAA intakes were not due to intrinsic toxicity; rather, to hyperphagia driven by AA imbalance.

Project description:Branched-chain amino acids (BCAAs) metabolism is dysregulated in diabetic retinopathy. Retina Müller cells maintain various metabolic processes and immune homeostasis. Here, we found that branched-chain aminotransferase 1 (BCAT1), which catalyzes the first step of BCAAs metabolism, was predominantly expressed in retina Müller cells. Under diabetic conditions, BCAT1 showed increased enzymatic activity in Müller cells, which drove the remodeling of BCAAs catabolism, and upregulated the expression of inflammatory genes such as interleukin 6 (IL6) and tumor necrosis factor-α (TNF-α). Mechanistically, BCAT1 activity was negatively regulated by Polo-like kinase 4 (PLK4) via phosphorylation at threonine 333. Increased BCAT1 activity further reduced α-ketoglutarate (α-KG) levels, a critical substrate for histone demethylation, resulting in higher H3K4me3 levels at inflammatory gene promoters, and further upregulated inflammation genes. Treatment with chemical BCAT inhibitor significantly reduced inflammatory gene expression and vascular leakage in diabetic retinas in vivo. These findings reveal a crucial role of BCAT1 in metabolic remodeling and inflammatory regulation, which indicates that BCAT1 could be used as a target for diabetic retinopathy.

Project description:Branched‐chain amino acid (BCAA) metabolism is a central hub for energy production and regulation of numerous physiological processes. Controversially, both increased and decreased levels of BCAAs are associated with longevity. Using genetics and multi‐omics analyses in Caenorhabditis elegans, we identified adaptive regulation of the ubiquitin‐proteasome system (UPS) in response to defective BCAA catabolic reactions after the initial transamination step. Worms with impaired BCAA metabolism show a slower turnover of a GFP‐based proteasome substrate, which is suppressed by loss‐of‐function of the first BCAA catabolic enzyme, the branched‐chain aminotransferase BCAT‐1. The exogenous supply of BCAA‐derived carboxylic acids, which are known to accumulate in the body fluid of patients with BCAA metabolic disorders, is sufficient to regulate the UPS. The link between BCAA intermediates and UPS function presented here sheds light on the unexplained role of BCAAs in the aging process and opens future possibilities for therapeutic interventions.

Project description:Background: Cells regulate protein synthesis in response to fluctuating nutrient availability through mechanisms that affect both translation initiation and elongation. Branched-chain amino acids, leucine, isoleucine, and valine, are essential nutrients. However, how their depletion affects translation remains largely unclear. Here, we investigate the immediate effects of single, double, and triple branched-chain amino acid deprivation on translational dynamics in NIH3T3 cells using RNA-seq and ribosome profiling. Results: All starvation conditions increased ribosome dwell times, with pronounced stalling at all valine codons during valine and triple starvation, whereas leucine and isoleucine starvation produced milder, codon-specific effects. Notably, stalling under isoleucine deprivation largely decreased under triple starvation. Positional enrichment of valine codons near the 5' end and downstream isoleucine codons potentially contributes to these patterns, suggesting a possible elongation bottleneck that influences translational responses under branched-chain amino acid starvation. The presence of multiple valine stalling sites was associated with decreased protein levels. Finally, codon-specific dwell time changes correlated strongly with patterns of tRNA isoacceptor charging. Conclusions: Together, these findings suggest that differential ribosome stalling under branched-chain amino acid starvation reflects a balance between amino acid supply, tRNA charging dynamics, codon position, and stress-response signaling.
