Conclusions 74 Acknowledgments 74 References 74 Abstract Cell proliferation requires the coordination of multiple signaling pathways as well as the provision of metabolic substrates. Nutrients are required to generate such building blocks and their form of utilization differs to significant extents between malignant tis- sues and their nontransformed counterparts. Thus, oncogenes and tumor suppressor genes regulate the proliferation of cancer cells also by controlling their metabolism. Here, we discuss the central anabolic functions of the signaling pathways emanating from mammalian target of rapamycin, MYC, and hypoxia-inducible factor-1. Moreover, we analyze how oncogenic proteins like phosphoinositide-3-kinase, AKT, and RAS, tumor suppressors such as phosphatase and tensin homolog, retinoblastoma, and p53, as well as other factors associated with the proliferation or survival of cancer cells, such as NF-kB, regulate cellular metabolism. # Methods in Enzymology, Volume 542 2014 Elsevier Inc. 59 ISSN 0076-6879 All rights reserved. http://dx.doi.org/10.1016/B978-0-12-416618-9.00003-0 Author's personal copy 60 Raffaella Iurlaro et al.

INTRODUCTION Most oncogenes and tumor suppressor genes encode proteins that promote cellular proliferation or cell cycle arrest. In recent years, we are learning that proliferation is tightly coupled with metabolic changes. For this reason, cancer metabolism is an area of intense research, since the metabolism of cancer cells can be exploited for therapeutic purposes (Munoz-Pinedo, El Mjiyad, & Ricci, 2012). In accordance to the normal function of their encoded proteins, oncogenes or tumor suppressors regulate cellular metabolism (Vander Heiden, Cantley, & Thompson, 2009). This is an intrinsic part of their program to reduce or promote cell proliferation. Oncogenes promote glucose and amino acid uptake and metabolism in order to make new lipids, nucleotides, and proteins. Conversely, tumor suppressors upregulate mitochondrial respiration and Krebs (TCA) cycle (see review by Frezza and colleagues, Chapter 1 of this volume). We will discuss how several oncogenes and tumor suppressors regulate cellular metabolism. Author's personal copy Regulation of Cancer Metabolism by Oncogenes 61 2. HIF-1: REGULATOR OF HYPOXIC RESPONSES AND CANCER METABOLISM Highly proliferating tumor cells are characterized by a hypoxic micro- environment due to the increased oxygen consumption, which stimulates metabolic reprogramming (Vaupel, Thews, & Hoeckel, 2001). The master regulator of cellular responses to low oxygen is hypoxia-inducible factor 1 (HIF-1), a transcription factor induced by hypoxic conditions and whose levels are increased in many human cancers even under normoxia (Semenza, 2010). Under normal oxygen conditions, HIF-1 is degraded by the proteasome after prolyl hydroxylation by prolyl-4-hydroxylase domain proteins (PHDs) and ubiquitination by the tumor suppressor von Hippel–Lindau (VHL) (Kaelin & Ratcliffe, 2008; Fig. 3.1). HIF-1 can also be constitutively activated by genetic alterations, such as the loss of function of VHL in renal cancer cells, or due to the accumulation of metabolites such as fumarate or succinate (Boulahbel, Duran, & Gottlieb, 2009). Cancer cells frequently undergo oxygen shortage which inhibits the prolyl hydroxylases and stabilizes HIF-1, which induces the expression of hundreds of genes involved in angiogenesis, metabolism, apoptosis, and proliferation. The major metabolic effect of HIF-1 is to trigger the switch from mito- chondrial oxidative phosphorylation (OXPHOS) to anaerobic glycolysis. HIF-1 induces the expression of glucose transporters (GLUT-1, GLUT-3) toenhanceglucoseuptakeanditupregulatesglycolyticenzymesandthelactate dehydrogenaseA(LDHA)subunittostimulatetheconversionofpyruvateinto lactate (Brahimi-Horn, Chiche, & Pouyssegur, 2007; Semenza, 2011; Fig. 3.1).

Thesis Biochemistry Department of Biosciences University of Kuopio June 2008 Abstract The expression of the human apolipoprotein genes and their regulation by PPARs. UNIVERSITY OF KUOPIO, the Faculty of Natural and Environmental Sciences, Curriculum of Biochemistry USKI Juuso Oskari Thesis for Master of Science degree Supervisors Prof. Carsten Carlberg, Ph.D. Merja Heinäniemi, Ph.D. June 2008 Keywords: nuclear receptors; peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor; PPAR response element; apolipoprotein; lipid metabolism; high density lipoprotein; low density lipoprotein. Lipids are any fat-soluble, naturally-occurring molecules and one of their main biological functions is energy storage. Lipoproteins carry hydrophobic lipids in the water and salt-based blood environment for processing and energy supply in liver and other organs. In this study, the genomic area around the apolipoprotein genes was scanned in silico for PPAR response elements (PPREs) using the in vitro data-based computer program. Several new putative REs were found in surroundings of multiple lipoprotein genes. The responsiveness of those apolipoprotein genes to the PPAR ligands GW501516, rosiglitazone and GW7647 in the HepG2, HEK293 and THP-1 cell lines were tested with real-time PCR. The APOA1, APOA2, APOB, APOD, APOE, APOF, APOL1, APOL3, APOL5 and APOL6 genes were found to be regulated by PPARs in direct or secondary manners. Those results provide new insights in the understanding of lipid metabolism and so many lifestyle diseases like atherosclerosis, type 2 diabetes, heart disease and stroke.

  • Epigenetic Aging Is Accelerated in Alcohol Use Disorder and Regulated by Genetic Variation in APOL2
    www.nature.com/npp ARTICLE OPEN Epigenetic aging is accelerated in alcohol use disorder and regulated by genetic variation in APOL2 Audrey Luo1, Jeesun Jung1, Martha Longley1, Daniel B. Rosoff1, Katrin Charlet1,2, Christine Muench 1, Jisoo Lee1, Colin A. Hodgkinson3, David Goldman3, Steve Horvath4,5, Zachary A. Kaminsky6 and Falk W. Lohoff1 To investigate the potential role of alcohol use disorder (AUD) in aging processes, we employed Levine’s epigenetic clock (DNAm PhenoAge) to estimate DNA methylation age in 331 individuals with AUD and 201 healthy controls (HC). We evaluated the effects of heavy, chronic alcohol consumption on epigenetic age acceleration (EAA) using clinical biomarkers, including liver function test enzymes (LFTs) and clinical measures. To characterize potential underlying genetic variation contributing to EAA in AUD, we performed genome-wide association studies (GWAS) on EAA, including pathway analyses. We followed up on relevant top findings with in silico expression quantitative trait loci (eQTL) analyses for biological function using the BRAINEAC database. There was a 2.22-year age acceleration in AUD compared to controls after adjusting for gender and blood cell composition (p = 1.85 × 10−5). This association remained significant after adjusting for race, body mass index, and smoking status (1.38 years, p = 0.02). Secondary analyses showed more pronounced EAA in individuals with more severe AUD-associated phenotypes, including elevated gamma- glutamyl transferase (GGT) and alanine aminotransferase (ALT), and higher number of heavy drinking days (all ps < 0.05). The genome-wide meta-analysis of EAA in AUD revealed a significant single nucleotide polymorphism (SNP), rs916264 (p = 5.43 × 10−8), in apolipoprotein L2 (APOL2) at the genome-wide level.

We previously isolated APOL3 (CG12-1) cDNA and now describe the isolation of APOL1 and APOL2 cDNA from an activated endothelial cell cDNA library and show their endothelial- specific expression in human vascular tissue. APOL1–APOL4 are clustered on human chro- mosome 22q13.1, as a result of tandem gene duplication, and were detected only in primates (humans and African green monkeys) and not in dogs, pigs, or rodents, showing that this gene cluster has arisen recently in evolution. The specific tissue distribution and gene organiza- tion suggest that these genes have diverged rapidly after duplication. This has resulted in the emergence of an additional signal peptide encoding exon that ensures secretion of the plasma high-density lipoprotein-associated APOL1. Our results show that the APOL1–APOL4 clus- ter might contribute to the substantial differences in the lipid metabolism of humans and mice, as dictated by the variable expression of genes involved in this process.

  • Apolipoprotein L2 Contains a BH3-Like Domain but It Does Not Behave As a BH3-Only Protein

Apolipoprotein L1 and apolipoprotein L6 have been recently described as novel pro-death BH3-only proteins that are also capable of regulating autophagy. In an in-silico screening to discover novel putative BH3-only proteins, we identified yet another member of the apolipoprotein L family, apolipoprotein L2 (ApoL2), as a BH3 motif-containing protein. ApoL2 has been suggested to behave as a BH3-only protein and mediate cell death induced by interferon-gamma or viral infection. As previously described, we observed that ApoL2 protein was induced by interferon-gamma. However, knocking down its expression in HeLa cells did not regulate cell death induced by interferon-gamma. Overexpression of ApoL2 did not induce cell death on its own. ApoL2 did not sensitize or protect cells from overexpression of the BH3-only proteins Bmf or Noxa. Furthermore, siRNA against ApoL2 did not alter sensitivity to a variety of death stimuli. We could, however, detect a weak interaction between ApoL2 and Bcl-2 by immunoprecipitation of the former, suggesting a role of ApoL2 in a Bcl-2-regulated process like autophagy.
