Molecular atlas of postnatal mouse heart development Abstract Rationale: Mammals lose the ability to regenerate their hearts within one week after birth. During this regenerative window, cardiac energy metabolism shifts from glycolysis to fatty acid oxidation, and recent evidence suggests that metabolism may participate in controlling cardiomyocyte cell cycle. However, the molecular mechanisms mediating the loss of postnatal cardiac regeneration are not fully understood. Objective: This study aims at providing an integrated resource of mRNA, protein and metabolite changes in the neonatal heart to identify metabolism-related mechanisms associated with the postnatal loss of regenerative capacity. Methods and Results: Mouse ventricular tissue samples taken on postnatal days 1, 4, 9 and 23 (P01, P04, P09 and P23, respectively) were analyzed with RNA sequencing (RNAseq) and global proteomics and metabolomics. Differential expression was observed for 8547 mRNAs and for 1199 of the 2285 quantified proteins. Furthermore, 151 metabolites with significant changes were identified. Gene ontology analysis, KEGG pathway analysis and fuzzy c-means clustering were used to identify biological processes and metabolic pathways either up- or downregulated on all three levels. Among these were branched chain amino acid degradation (upregulated at P23) and production of free saturated and monounsaturated medium- to long-chain fatty acids (upregulated at P04 and P09; downregulated at P23). Moreover, the HMG-CoA synthase (HMGCS)-mediated mevalonate pathway and ketogenesis were transiently activated. Pharmacological inhibition of HMGCS in primary neonatal rat ventricular cardiomyocytes reduced the percentage of BrdU+ cardiomyocytes, providing evidence that the mevalonate and ketogenesis routes may participate in regulating cardiomyocyte cell cycle. Conclusions: This is the first systems-level resource combining data from genome-wide transcriptomics with global quantitative proteomics and untargeted metabolomics analyses of the mouse heart throughout the early postnatal period. This integrated multi-level data of molecular changes associated with the loss of cardiac regeneration may open up new possibilities for the development of regenerative therapies.

  • ASPP2 Inhibits Tumor Growth by Repressing the Mevalonate Pathway
    Liang et al. Cell Death and Disease (2019) 10:830 https://doi.org/10.1038/s41419-019-2054-7 Cell Death & Disease ARTICLE Open Access ASPP2 inhibits tumor growth by repressing the mevalonate pathway in hepatocellular carcinoma Beibei Liang1,RuiChen2, Shaohua Song3,HaoWang4,GuoweiSun5, Hao Yang1,WeiJing6, Xuyu Zhou6,ZhirenFu3, Gang Huang1 and Jian Zhao1 Abstract Cancer is, fundamentally, a disorder of cell growth and proliferation, which requires adequate supplies of energy and nutrients. In this study, we report that the haplo-insufficient tumor suppressor ASPP2, a p53 activator, negatively regulates the mevalonate pathway to mediate its inhibitory effect on tumor growth in hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC). Gene expression profile analysis revealed that the expression of key enzymes in the mevalonate pathway were increased when ASPP2 was downregulated. HCC cells gained higher cholesterol levels and enhanced tumor-initiating capability in response to the depletion of ASPP2. Simvastatin, a mevalonate pathway inhibitor, efficiently abrogated ASPP2 depletion-induced anchorage-independent cell proliferation, resistance to chemotherapy drugs in vitro, and tumor growth in xenografted nude mice. Mechanistically, ASPP2 interacts with SREBP-2 in the nucleus and restricts the transcriptional activity of SREBP-2 on its target genes, which include key enzymes involved in the mevalonate pathway. Moreover, clinical data revealed better prognosis in patients with high levels of ASPP2 and low levels of the mevalonate pathway enzyme HMGCR. Our findings provide functional and mechanistic insights into the critical role of ASPP2 in the regulation of the mevalonate pathway and the importance of this pathway in tumor initiation and tumor growth, which may provide a new therapeutic opportunity for HCC.

Keasling, Chair The isoprenoid family, containing over 50,000 members, constitutes one of the most structurally diverse groups of natural products. They range from essential and relatively universal primary metabolites, such as sterols, carotenoids, and hormones, to more unique secondary metabolites that serve roles in plant defense and communication and cellular and organismal development. Although these molecules have vast potential in medicine and industry their production is limited by two factors: 1- The yields from harvest and extraction of these compounds from their native sources are low 2- Due to their complex structure, synthetic routes to most isoprenoids are difficult and inefficient Therefore engineering metabolic pathways for production of large quantities of isoprenoids in a microbial host is an attractive approach.

  • Engineering a Mevalonate Pathway in Escherichia Coli for Production of Terpenoids
    ARTICLES Engineering a mevalonate pathway in Escherichia coli for production of terpenoids Vincent JJ Martin1,2,3, Douglas J Pitera1,3,Sydnor T Withers1,Jack D Newman1 & Jay D Keasling1 Isoprenoids are the most numerous and structurally diverse family of natural products. Terpenoids, a class of isoprenoids often isolated from plants, are used as commercial flavor and fragrance compounds and antimalarial or anticancer drugs. Because plant tissue extractions typically yield low terpenoid concentrations, we sought an alternative method to produce high-value terpenoid compounds, such as the antimalarial drug artemisinin, in a microbial host. We engineered the expression of a synthetic amorpha-4,11-diene synthase gene and the mevalonate isoprenoid pathway from Saccharomyces cerevisiae in Escherichia coli. Concentrations of amorphadiene, the sesquiterpene olefin precursor to artemisinin, reached 24 µg caryophyllene equivalent/ml. Because isopentenyl and dimethylallyl pyrophosphates are the universal precursors to all isoprenoids, the strains developed in this study can serve as platform hosts for the production of any terpenoid compound for which a terpene synthase gene is available. http://www.nature.com/naturebiotechnology Terpenoids comprise a highly diverse class of natural products from certain cancers10,11, and irufloven, a third-generation semisynthetic which numerous commercial flavors, fragrances and medicines are analog of the sesquiterpene illudin S that are in late-stage clinical derived.

  • Evolution of Carotenoid and Isoprenoid Biosynthesis in Photosynthetic and Non-Photosynthetic Organisms
    EVOLUTION OF CAROTENOID AND ISOPRENOID BIOSYNTHESIS IN PHOTOSYNTHETIC AND NON-PHOTOSYNTHETIC ORGANISMS HARTMUT K. LICHTENTHALER Botanisches Institut II, University of Karlsruhe, Kaiserstr. 12, D-76128 Karlsruhe, Germany Email: [email protected] Abstract Sterols and carotenoids are typical representatives of the group of isoprenoid lipids in plants. All isoprenoids are synthesized by condensation of the two active C5-units: dimethylallyl diphosphate, DMAPP, and isopentenyl diphosphate, IPP. Like animals, higher plants form their sterols via the classical cytosolic acetate/mevalonate (MVA) pathway of IPP biosynthesis. Plants as photosynthetic organisms, however possess a second, non- mevalonate pathway for IPP biosynthesis, the DOXP/MEP pathway. The latter operates in the chloroplasts and is responsible for the formation of carotenoids and all other plastidic isoprenoid lipids (phytol, prenylquinones). Although there exists some cooperation between both IPP producing pathways, one can never fully compensate for the other. Thus, in higher plants sterols are primarily made via the MVA pathway and carotenoids via the DOXP pathway. This also applies to several algae groups, such as red algae and Heterokontophyta. In the large and diverging group of 'Green Algae' the situation is more complex. The more advanced evolutionary groups (Charales, Zygnematales) possess, like higher plants, both IPP forming pathways and represent an evolutionary link to these. In contrast, the proper Chlorophyta, often single cell organisms (Chlorella, Scenedesmus, Trebouxia), represent a separate phylum and synthesize sterols and carotenoids via the DOXP pathway whereas the MVA pathway is lost. The common ancestor of both groups, Mesostigma viride, again exhibits both IPP pathways. In the photosynthetic Euglenophyta the situation is inverse, both the sterols and the carotenoids are formed exclusively via the MVA pathway, the DOXP pathway is lost during the secondary endosymbiosis.
