[PMID: 39098690 DOI: 10.1016/j.ijbiomac.2024.134450] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 04/25/2024] [Revised: 07/12/2024] [Accepted: 08/01/2024] [Indexed: 08/06/2024]
Abstract
Algal polysaccharide is an important food functional factor with diverse bioactive and low toxicity. Previous studies have confirmed Caulerpa chemnitzia polysaccharides (CRVP) have immunomodulatory activity, but the immunomodulatory mechanism of CRVP in macrophages has not been thoroughly explored yet. In our research, we found that CRVP has outstanding immunomodulatory activity in macrophages, which is reflected in promoting cell proliferation, upregulating cytokines (IL-1β, IL-6, and TNF-α) expression, and increasing NO and ROS levels. Additionally, the result of joint analysis of untargeted metabolomics showed metabolism played a major role in the immunomodulatory of CRVP and suggested succinic acid was a key metabolite. Further verification indicated that the accumulation of succinic acid in macrophages after administered with CRVP, induced the down-regulation of prolyl hydroxylase domain 2 (PHD2) and up-regulation of hypoxia-inducible factor-1α (HIF-1α), thereby enhancing IL-1β expression. Together, the immunomodulatory activity of CRVP in macrophages via succinate/PHD2/HIF-1α/IL-1β pathway.

Abstract
Cancer therapy is facing increasingly significant challenges, marked by a wide range of techniques and research efforts centered around somatic mutations, precision oncology, and the vast amount of big data. Despite this abundance of information, the quest to cure cancer often seems more elusive, with the "war on cancer" yet to deliver a definitive victory. A particularly pressing issue is the development of tumor treatment resistance, highlighting the urgent need for innovative approaches. Evolutionary, Quantum Biology and System Biology offer a promising framework for advancing experimental cancer research. By integrating theoretical studies, translational methods, and flexible multidisciplinary clinical research, there's potential to enhance current treatment strategies and improve outcomes for cancer patients. Establishing stronger links between evolutionary, quantum, entropy and chaos principles and oncology could lead to more effective treatments that leverage an understanding of the tumor's evolutionary dynamics, paving the way for novel methods to control and mitigate cancer. Achieving these objectives necessitates a commitment to multidisciplinary and interprofessional collaboration at the heart of both research and clinical endeavors in oncology. This entails dismantling silos between disciplines, encouraging open communication and data sharing, and integrating diverse viewpoints and expertise from the outset of research projects. Being receptive to new scientific discoveries and responsive to how patients react to treatments is also crucial. Such strategies are key to keeping the field of oncology at the forefront of effective cancer management, ensuring patients receive the most personalized and effective care. Ultimately, this approach aims to push the boundaries of cancer understanding, treating it as a manageable chronic condition, aiming to extend life expectancy and enhance patient quality of life.

Abstract
Dysregulated transcription due to disruption in histone lysine methylation dynamics is an established contributor to tumorigenesis1,2. However, whether analogous pathologic epigenetic mechanisms act directly on the ribosome to advance oncogenesis is unclear. Here we find that trimethylation of the core ribosomal protein L40 (rpL40) at lysine 22 (rpL40K22me3) by the lysine methyltransferase SMYD5 regulates mRNA translation output to promote malignant progression of gastric adenocarcinoma (GAC) with lethal peritoneal ascites. A biochemical-proteomics strategy identifies the monoubiquitin fusion protein partner rpL40 (ref. 3) as the principal physiological substrate of SMYD5 across diverse samples. Inhibiting the SMYD5-rpL40K22me3 axis in GAC cell lines reprogrammes protein synthesis to attenuate oncogenic gene expression signatures. SMYD5 and rpL40K22me3 are upregulated in samples from patients with GAC and negatively correlate with clinical outcomes. SMYD5 ablation in vivo in familial and sporadic mouse models of malignant GAC blocks metastatic disease, including peritoneal carcinomatosis. Suppressing SMYD5 methylation of rpL40 inhibits human cancer cell and patient-derived GAC xenograft growth and renders them hypersensitive to inhibitors of PI3K and mTOR. Finally, combining SMYD5 depletion with PI3K-mTOR inhibition and chimeric antigen receptor T cell administration cures an otherwise lethal in vivo mouse model of aggressive GAC-derived peritoneal carcinomatosis. Together, our work uncovers a ribosome-based epigenetic mechanism that facilitates the evolution of malignant GAC and proposes SMYD5 targeting as part of a potential combination therapy to treat this cancer.

Abstract
Transcription factors are a specialized group of proteins that play important roles in regulating gene expression in human. These proteins control the transcription and translation of genes by binding to specific sites on DNA, thereby regulating key biological processes such as cell differentiation, proliferation, immune response, and neural development. Moreover, transcription factors are also involved in apoptosis and the pathogenesis of various diseases. By investigating transcription factors, researchers can uncover the mechanisms of gene regulation in organisms and develop more effective methods for preventing and treating human diseases. In the present study, the Virtual Inference of Protein-activity by Enriched Regulon algorithm was utilized to calculate the protein activity of transcription factors, and the metabolic-related protein activity were used for classifying bladder cancer patients into different subtype. To identify chemotherapy drugs with clinical benefits, the differences in prognosis and drug sensitivity between two distinct subtypes of bladder cancer patients were investigated. Simultaneously, the master regulators that display varying levels of transcription factor activity between two different bladder cancer subtypes were explored. Additionally, the potential transcriptional regulatory mechanisms and targets of these factors were investigated, thereby generating novel insights into bladder cancer research at the transcriptional regulation level.

Abstract
CD8+ T cell immune responses are regulated by multi-layer networks, while the post-translational regulation remains largely unknown. Transmembrane ectodomain shedding is an important post-translational process orchestrating receptor expression and signal transduction through proteolytic cleavage of membrane proteins. Here, by targeting the sheddase A Disintegrin and Metalloprotease (ADAM)17, we defined a post-translational regulatory mechanism mediated by the ectodomain shedding in CD8+ T cells. Transcriptomic and proteomic analysis revealed the involvement of post-translational regulation in CD8+ T cells. T cell-specific deletion of ADAM17 led to a dramatic increase in effector CD8+ T cell differentiation and enhanced cytolytic effects to eliminate pathogens and tumors. Mechanistically, ADAM17 regulated CD8+ T cells through cleavage of membrane CD122. ADAM17 inhibition led to elevated CD122 expression and enhanced response to IL-2 and IL-15 stimulation in both mouse and human CD8+ T cells. Intriguingly, inhibition of ADAM17 in CD8+ T cells improved the efficacy of chimeric antigen receptor (CAR) T cells in solid tumors. Our findings reveal a critical post-translational regulation in CD8+ T cells, providing a potential therapeutic strategy of targeting ADAM17 for effective anti-tumor immunity.

Abstract
eEF2 post-translational modifications (PTMs) can profoundly affect mRNA translation dynamics. However, the physiologic function of eEF2K525 trimethylation (eEF2K525me3), a PTM catalyzed by the enzyme FAM86A, is unknown. Here, we find that FAM86A methylation of eEF2 regulates nascent elongation to promote protein synthesis and lung adenocarcinoma (LUAD) pathogenesis. The principal physiologic substrate of FAM86A is eEF2, with K525me3 modeled to facilitate productive eEF2-ribosome engagement during translocation. FAM86A depletion in LUAD cells causes 80S monosome accumulation and mRNA translation inhibition. FAM86A is overexpressed in LUAD and eEF2K525me3 levels increase through advancing LUAD disease stages. FAM86A knockdown attenuates LUAD cell proliferation and suppression of the FAM86A-eEF2K525me3 axis inhibits cancer cell and patient-derived LUAD xenograft growth in vivo. Finally, FAM86A ablation strongly attenuates tumor growth and extends survival in KRASG12C-driven LUAD mouse models. Thus, our work uncovers an eEF2 methylation-mediated mRNA translation elongation regulatory node and nominates FAM86A as an etiologic agent in LUAD.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Human epidermal growth factor-2 (HER2) overexpression is an oncogenic driver in many solid tumors, including urothelial bladder cancer (UBC). In addition, activating mutations in the ERBB2 gene have been shown to play an oncogenic role similar to ERBB2 amplification. OBJECTIVE To describe and compare the frequency and nature of genomic alterations (GA) of ERBB2-altered (mutations, amplification) and ERBB2 wild-type UBC. PATIENTS AND METHODS Using a hybrid capture-based comprehensive profiling assay, 9518 UBC cases were grouped by ERBB2 alteration and evaluated for all classes of genomic alterations (GA), tumor mutational burden (TMB), microsatellite instability (MSI), genome-wide loss of heterozygosity (gLOH), and genomic mutational signature. PD-L1 expression was measured by immunohistochemistry (Dako 22C3). Categorical statistical comparisons were performed using Fisher's exact tests. RESULTS A total of 602 (6.3%) UBC cases featured ERBB2 extracellular domain short variant (SV) GA (ECDmut+), 253 (2.7%) cases featured ERBB2 kinase domain SV GA (KDmut+), 866 (9.1%) cases had ERBB2 amplification (amp+), and 7797 (81.9%) cases were ERBB2 wild-type (wt). European genetic ancestry of ECDmut+ was higher than ERBB2wt. Numerous significant associations were observed when comparing GA by group. Notably among these, CDKN2A/MTAP loss were more frequent in ERBB2wt versus ECDmut+ and amp+. ERBB3 GA were more frequent in ECDmut+ and KDmut+ than ERBB2wt. TERT GA were more frequent in ECDmut+, KDmut+, and amp+ versus ERBB2wt. TOP2A amplification was significantly more common in ECDmut+ and amp+ versus ERBB2wt, and TP53 SV GA were significantly higher in ERBB2 amp+ versus ERBB2wt. Mean TMB levels were significantly higher in ECDmut+, KDmut+, and amp+ than in ERBB2wt. Apolipoprotein B mRNA-editing enzyme, catalytic polypeptides (APOBEC) signature was more frequent in ECDmut+, KDmut+, and amp+ versus ERBB2wt. No significant differences were observed in PD-L1 status between groups, while gLOH-high status was more common in amp+ versus ERBB2wt. MSI-high status was more frequent in KDmut+ versus ERBB2wt, and in ERBB2wt than in amp+. CONCLUSIONS We noted important differences in co-occurring GA in ERBB2-altered (ECDmut+, KDmut+, amp+) versus ERBB2wt UBC, as well as higher mean TMB and higher APOBEC mutational signature in the ERBB2-altered groups. Our results can help refine future clinical trial designs and elucidate possible response and resistance mechanisms for ERBB2-altered UBC.

[PMID: 38572599 DOI: 10.1096/fj.202400186r] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/23/2024] [Revised: 03/05/2024] [Accepted: 03/25/2024] [Indexed: 04/05/2024]
Abstract
Odontoblast differentiation depends on the orderly recruitment of transcriptional factors (TFs) in the transcriptional regulatory network. The depletion of crucial TFs disturbs dynamic alteration of the chromatin landscape and gene expression profile, leading to developmental defects. Our previous studies have revealed that the basic leucine zipper (bZIP) TF family is crucial in odontoblastic differentiation, but the function of bZIP TF family member XBP1 is still unknown. Here, we showed the stage-specific expression patterns of the spliced form Xbp1s during tooth development. Elevated Xbp1 expression and nuclear translocation of XBP1S in mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) were induced by differentiation medium in vitro. Diminution of Xbp1 expression impaired the odontogenic differentiation potential of MSCs. The further integration of ATAC-seq and RNA-seq identified Hspa9 as a direct downstream target, an essential mitochondrial chaperonin gene that modulated mitochondrial homeostasis. The amelioration of mitochondrial dysfunction rescued the impaired odontogenic differentiation potential of MSCs caused by the diminution of Xbp1. Furthermore, the overexpression of Hspa9 rescued Xbp1-deficient defects in odontoblastic differentiation. Our study illustrates the crucial role of Xbp1 in odontoblastic differentiation via modulating mitochondrial homeostasis and brings evidence to the therapy of mitochondrial diseases caused by genetic defects.

Abstract
N6-methyladenosine (m6A) modification orchestrates cancer formation and progression by affecting the tumor microenvironment (TME). For hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC), immune evasion and angiogenesis are characteristic features of its TME. The role of YTH N6-methyladenosine RNA binding protein 2 (YTHDF2), as an m6A reader, in regulating HCC TME are not fully understood. Herein, it is discovered that trimethylated histone H3 lysine 4 and H3 lysine 27 acetylation modification in the promoter region of YTHDF2 enhanced its expression in HCC, and upregulated YTHDF2 in HCC predicted a worse prognosis. Animal experiments demonstrated that Ythdf2 depletion inhibited spontaneous HCC formation, while its overexpression promoted xenografted HCC progression. Mechanistically, YTHDF2 recognized the m6A modification in the 5'-untranslational region of ETS variant transcription factor 5 (ETV5) mRNA and recruited eukaryotic translation initiation factor 3 subunit B to facilitate its translation. Elevated ETV5 expression induced the transcription of programmed death ligand-1 and vascular endothelial growth factor A, thereby promoting HCC immune evasion and angiogenesis. Targeting YTHDF2 via small interference RNA-containing aptamer/liposomes successfully both inhibited HCC immune evasion and angiogenesis. Together, this findings reveal the potential application of YTHDF2 in HCC prognosis and targeted treatment.

LncRNA like NMRK2 mRNA functions as a key molecular scaffold to enhance mitochondrial respiration of NONO-TFE3 rearranged renal cell carcinoma in an NAD + kinase-independent manner. J Exp Clin Cancer Res 2023; 42:252. [PMID: 37770905 PMCID: PMC10537463 DOI: 10.1186/s13046-023-02837-4] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 06/05/2023] [Accepted: 09/19/2023] [Indexed: 09/30/2023] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND NONO-TFE3 rearranged renal cell carcinoma (NONO-TFE3 rRCC) is one of a subtype of TFE3 rRCCs with high malignancy and poor prognosis. Compared with clear cell RCC, NONO-TFE3 rRCC shows a preference for mitochondrial respiration. We recently identified that the upregulation of nicotinamide ribokinase 2 (NMRK2) was associated with enhanced mitochondrial respiration and tumor progression in TFE3 rRCC. METHODS A tumor-bearing mouse model was established to verify the pro-oncogenic effect of NMRK2 on NONO-TFE3 rRCC. Then the expression of NMRK2 RNA and protein was detected in cell lines and patient specimens. The NMRK2 transcripts were Sanger-sequenced and blasted at NCBI website. We constructed dCas13b-HA system to investigate the factors binding with NMRK2 RNA. We also used molecular experiments like RIP-seq, IP-MS, FISH and fluorescence techniques to explore the mechanisms that long non-coding RNA (lncRNA) like NMRK2 mRNA promoted the mitochondrial respiration of NONO-TFE3 rRCC. The efficacy of the combination of shRNA (NMRK2)-lentivirus and metformin on NONO-TFE3 rRCC was assessed by CCK-8 assay. RESULTS In this study, we confirmed that NMRK2 showed transcriptional-translational conflict and functioned as lncRNA like mRNA in the NONO-TFE3 rRCC. Furthermore, we revealed the molecular mechanism that NONO-TFE3 fusion suppressed the translation of NMRK2 mRNA. Most importantly, three major pathways were shown to explain the facilitation effects of lncRNA like NMRK2 mRNA on the mitochondrial respiration of NONO-TFE3 rRCC in an NAD+ kinase-independent manner. Finally, the efficacy of combination of shRNA (NMRK2)-lentivirus and metformin on NONO-TFE3 rRCC was demonstrated to be superior than either agent alone. CONCLUSIONS Overall, our data comprehensively demonstrated the mechanisms for the enhanced mitochondrial respiration in NONO-TFE3 rRCC and proposed lncRNA like NMRK2 mRNA as a therapy target for NONO-TFE3 rRCC.
