Development of an efficient, effective, and economical technology for proteome analysis. CELL REPORTS METHODS 2024; 4:100796. [PMID: 38866007 PMCID: PMC11228373 DOI: 10.1016/j.crmeth.2024.100796] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/19/2024] [Revised: 03/21/2024] [Accepted: 05/20/2024] [Indexed: 06/14/2024]
Abstract
We present an efficient, effective, and economical approach, named E3technology, for proteomics sample preparation. By immobilizing silica microparticles into the polytetrafluoroethylene matrix, we develop a robust membrane medium, which could serve as a reliable platform to generate proteomics-friendly samples in a rapid and low-cost fashion. We benchmark its performance using different formats and demonstrate them with a variety of sample types of varied complexity, quantity, and volume. Our data suggest that E3technology provides proteome-wide identification and quantitation performance equivalent or superior to many existing methods. We further propose an enhanced single-vessel approach, named E4technology, which performs on-filter in-cell digestion with minimal sample loss and high sensitivity, enabling low-input and low-cell proteomics. Lastly, we utilized the above technologies to investigate RNA-binding proteins and profile the intact bacterial cell proteome.

Integrated drug profiling and CRISPR screening identify BCR::ABL1-independent vulnerabilities in chronic myeloid leukemia. Cell Rep Med 2024; 5:101521. [PMID: 38653245 PMCID: PMC11148568 DOI: 10.1016/j.xcrm.2024.101521] [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: 09/20/2023] [Revised: 01/10/2024] [Accepted: 03/27/2024] [Indexed: 04/25/2024]
Abstract
BCR::ABL1-independent pathways contribute to primary resistance to tyrosine kinase inhibitor (TKI) treatment in chronic myeloid leukemia (CML) and play a role in leukemic stem cell persistence. Here, we perform ex vivo drug screening of CML CD34+ leukemic stem/progenitor cells using 100 single drugs and TKI-drug combinations and identify sensitivities to Wee1, MDM2, and BCL2 inhibitors. These agents effectively inhibit primitive CD34+CD38- CML cells and demonstrate potent synergies when combined with TKIs. Flow-cytometry-based drug screening identifies mepacrine to induce differentiation of CD34+CD38- cells. We employ genome-wide CRISPR-Cas9 screening for six drugs, and mediator complex, apoptosis, and erythroid-lineage-related genes are identified as key resistance hits for TKIs, whereas the Wee1 inhibitor AZD1775 and mepacrine exhibit distinct resistance profiles. KCTD5, a consistent TKI-resistance-conferring gene, is found to mediate TKI-induced BCR::ABL1 ubiquitination. In summary, we delineate potential mechanisms for primary TKI resistance and non-BCR::ABL1-targeting drugs, offering insights for optimizing CML treatment.

Abstract
The RNA modification 5-methylcytosine (m5C) is widespread across various RNA types, significantly impacting RNA stability and translational efficiency. Accumulating evidence highlights its significant role within the tumorigenesis and progression of multiple malignancies. Nevertheless, the specific process through m5C is implicated in Glioblastoma (GBM) remains unclear. We conducted acomprehensive analysis of m5C expression distribution in single-cell GBM data. Our findings revealed elevated m5C scores in GBM single-cell data compared to the normal group. Additionally, multiple tumors exhibited significantly higher m5C scores than the normal group. Moreover, there was a positive correlation observed between the m5C score and inflammation score. m5C regulatory factor YBX1 exhibited a heightened expression in GBM, correlating closely with metastatic tendencies and an unfavorable prognosis across various cancer types. YBX1 has different biological functions in myeloid cells 1 and myeloid cells 2. YBX1 may act as immunosuppressive regulator by inhibiting the NF-κB pathway and inflammatory response in myeloid cells 1. YBX1 is essential for immune infiltrates, which creates a highly immunosuppressive tumor microenvironment by TNF signaling pathway in myeloid cells 2. YBX1+ neoplastic cells promote cell proliferation by NF-κB pathway. APOE mediates the interaction of YBX1+ myeloid cells and neoplastic cells by NF-κB.

Abstract
Y-box binding protein 1 (YBX1), a member of the Cold Shock Domain protein family, is overexpressed in various human cancers and is recognized as an oncogenic gene associated with poor prognosis. YBX1's functional diversity arises from its capacity to interact with a broad range of DNA and RNA molecules, implicating its involvement in diverse cellular processes. Independent investigations have unveiled specific facets of YBX1's contribution to cancer development. This comprehensive review elucidates YBX1's multifaceted role in cancer across cancer hallmarks, both in cancer cell itself and the tumor microenvironment. Based on this, we proposed YBX1 as a potential target for cancer treatment. Notably, ongoing clinical trials addressing YBX1 as a target in breast cancer and lung cancer have showcased its promise for cancer therapy. The ramp up in in vitro research on targeting YBX1 compounds also underscores its growing appeal. Moreover, the emerging role of YBX1 as a neural input is also proposed where the high level of YBX1 was strongly associated with nerve cancer and neurodegenerative diseases. This review also summarized the up-to-date advanced research on the involvement of YBX1 in pancreatic cancer.

Int J Mol Sci 2023; 24:13119. [PMID: 37685922 PMCID: PMC10487795 DOI: 10.3390/ijms241713119] [Citation(s) in RCA: 1] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 08/02/2023] [Revised: 08/18/2023] [Accepted: 08/21/2023] [Indexed: 09/10/2023] Open
Abstract
HTLV-1 is an oncogenic human retrovirus and the etiologic agent of the highly aggressive ATL malignancy. Two viral genes, Tax and Hbz, are individually linked to oncogenic transformation and play an important role in the pathogenic process. Consequently, regulation of HTLV-1 gene expression is a central feature in the viral lifecycle and directly contributes to its pathogenic potential. Herein, we identified the cellular transcription factor YBX1 as a binding partner for HBZ. We found YBX1 activated transcription and enhanced Tax-mediated transcription from the viral 5' LTR promoter. Interestingly, YBX1 also interacted with Tax. shRNA-mediated loss of YBX1 decreased transcript and protein abundance of both Tax and HBZ in HTLV-1-transformed T-cell lines, as well as Tax association with the 5' LTR. Conversely, YBX1 transcriptional activation of the 5' LTR promoter was increased in the absence of HBZ. YBX1 was found to be associated with both the 5' and 3' LTRs in HTLV-1-transformed and ATL-derived T-cell lines. Together, these data suggest that YBX1 positively influences transcription from both the 5' and 3' promoter elements. YBX1 is able to interact with Tax and help recruit Tax to the 5' LTR. However, through interactions with HBZ, YBX1 transcriptional activation of the 5' LTR is repressed.
