Project description:Atherosclerosis arises from disrupted cholesterol metabolism, notably impaired macrophage cholesterol efflux leading to foam cell formation. Through single-cell and bulk RNA sequencing, we identified Listerin as a regulator of macrophage cholesterol metabolism. Listerin expression increased during atherosclerosis progression in humans and rodents. Its deficiency suppressed cholesterol efflux, promoted foam cell formation, and exacerbated plaque features (macrophage infiltration, lipid deposition, necrotic cores) in macrophage-specific knockout mice. Conversely, Listerin overexpression attenuated these atherosclerotic manifestations. Mechanistically, Listerin stabilizes ABCA1, a key cholesterol efflux mediator, by catalyzing K63-linked polyubiquitination at residues K1884/K1957, countering ESCRT-mediated lysosomal degradation of ABCA1 induced by oxLDL. ABCA1 agonist Erythrodiol restored cholesterol efflux in Listerin-deficient macrophages, while ABCA1 knockout abolished Listerin's effects in THP-1 cells. This study establishes Listerin as a protective factor in atherosclerosis via post-translational stabilization of ABCA1, offering a potential therapeutic strategy targeting ABCA1 ubiquitination to enhance cholesterol efflux.

Project description:Background and aims: Itaconate (ITA) is a metabolite produced from the tricarboxylic acid cycle (TCA) that has been shown to regulate atherosclerotic plaque growth and induce stability via immunomodulation. However, lipid metabolism regulation by ITA is currently underexplored in atherosclerosis. Here, we take advantage of plaque-targeting ITA-conjugated nanoparticles (ITA-LNPs) to investigate the effects of ITA on regulating lipid metabolism in foam cells/macrophages in atherosclerosis via ABCA1 stabilization and increased triglyceride metabolism. Methods: Apoe−/− mice were fed a high-cholesterol/high-fat diet (HCHFD) for 12 weeks and injected once weekly with 50 mg/kg ITA-LNP or Ctrl-LNP. Aortas were tested for ITA-LNP biodistribution, followed by quantification of atherosclerotic plaque burden. Bone marrow-derived macrophages (BMDMs) or Raw 264.7 cells were treated with ITA-LNP or Ctrl-LNP in the presence of oxLDL, acLDL, or free cholesterol to investigate ITA’s actions on lipid metabolism and ABCA1 expression under a variety of conditions, including stable gene knockdown. Results: ABCA1 was significantly upregulated with ITA-LNP treatment compared to Ctrl-LNP both in vivo and in vitro at the protein level, but not at the transcriptional level. ITA-LNPs were shown to prevent ABCA1 decay via the HO-1-calpain axis, resulting in significantly increased cholesterol efflux in macrophages. This was further confirmed in Raw 264.7 cells with a stable HO-1 knockdown. Additionally, ITA decreased lipid burden in conjunction with increased expression of Slc25a1 in ITA-LNP-treated BMDMs, suggesting enhanced fatty acid-derived citrate shuttling and increased fatty acid metabolism. Conclusions: ITA-LNPs regulate lipid metabolism in atherosclerosis by inducing triglyceride catabolism and cholesterol efflux.

Project description:The activation of Liver X Receptor (LXR) promotes cholesterol efflux and repression of inflammatory genes with anti-atherogenic consequences. The mechanisms underlying repressive activity of LXR are controversial and have been attributed to cholesterol efflux or to transrepression of Activator Protein-1 (AP-1) activity. Here, we find that cholesterol efflux contributes to LXR repression, while direct repressive functions of LXR also play a key role but are independent of AP-1. We use ATAC-seq to show that LXR reduces chromatin accessibility in cis at inflammatory gene enhancers containing LXR binding sites. Targets of this repressive activity are associated with leukocyte adhesion and neutrophil migration, and LXR agonist treatment suppresses neutrophil recruitment in a mouse model of sterile peritonitis. These studies suggest a model of repression in which liganded LXR binds in cis to canonical nuclear receptor binding sites and represses pro-atherogenic leukocyte functions in tandem with induction of LXR targets mediating cholesterol efflux.

Project description:Tumor-associated macrophages (TAM) have been shown to have important roles in the malignant progression of various cancers. However, macrophages also posses intrinsic tumoricidal activity and can promote the activity of cytotoxic lymphocytes, but they rapidly adopt an alternative phenotype within tumors, associated with immune-suppression and trophic functions that support tumor growth. The mechanisms that promote TAM polarization in the tumor-microenvironment remain poorly understood, these mechanisms may represent important therapeutic targets to block the tumor-promoting functions of TAM and restore their anti-tumor potential. Here we have characterized TAM in a mouse model of metastatic ovarian cancer. We show that ovarian cancer cells promote membrane-cholesterol efflux and the depletion of lipid rafts from macrophages. Increased cholesterol efflux promoted IL-4 mediated reprogramming while inhibiting IFNg-induced gene expression. These studies reveal an unexpected role for tumor-induced membrane-cholesterol efflux in driving the IL-4 signaling and the tumor-promoting functions of TAM, while rendering them refractory to pro-inflammatory stimuli. Thus, preventing cholesterol efflux in TAM could represent a novel therapeutic strategy to block pro-tumor functions and restore anti-tumor immunity.

Project description:We found that overexpression of APOA1 in glioblastoma (GBM) promotes cholesterol efflux from TAMs and restores phagocytosis and antigen presentation. Therefore, we constructed a recombinant oncolytic adenovirus expressing APOA1 to carry the cholesterol regulatory elements of TAMs. AdV-APOA1 exhibited better antitumor effects than AdV-Ctrl in several orthotopic GBM tumor models. Further, we collected virus-treated GL261-CAR tumors for RNA-seq to reveal differences in biological processes between them. Specifically, intracranial 14-day GL261-CAR-bearing C57BL/6J mice were i.t. injected with 1 × 108 PFU AdV-Ctrl or 1 × 108 PFU AdV-APOA1. The tumor bulks were then collected to perform transcriptome RNA-seq analysis 3 days after virus injection.
