Hence, eliminating CSCs is a major challenge for cancer treatment. Understanding the cellular programs that maintain CSCs, and identifying the critical regulators for such programs, are major undertakings in both basic and translational cancer research. Recently, we have reported that RAB4A is a major regulator of epithelial-to-mesenchymal transition (EMT) and it does so mainly through regulating the activation of RAC1 GTPase. In the current study, we have delineated a new signaling circuitry through which RAB4A transmits its control of cancer stemness. Using in vitro and in vivo studies, we show that RAB4A, as the upstream regulator, relays signal stepwise to NUMB, NOTCH1, RAC1, and then SOX2 to control the self-renewal property of multiple cancer cells of diverse tissue origins. Knockdown of NUMB, or overexpression of NICD (the active fragment NOTCH1) or SOX2, rescued the in vitro sphere-forming and in vivo tumor-forming abilities that were lost upon RAB4A knockdown. Furthermore, we discovered that the chain of control is mostly through transcriptional regulation at every step of the pathway. The discovery of the novel signaling axis of RAB4A-NUMB-NOTCH-SOX2 opens the path for further expansion of the signaling chain and for the identification of new regulators and interacting proteins important for CSC functions, which can be explored to develop new and effective therapies.</p>","PeriodicalId":9734,"journal":{"name":"Cell Death & Disease","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":8.1,"publicationDate":"2024-10-27","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC11514220/pdf/","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142495891","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":1,"RegionCategory":"生物学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The Z-DNA binding protein 1 (ZBP1) is the apical sensor of PANoptosis and essential for PANoptosome assembly in response to DNA damage. We find endogenous retroviruses (ERVs) are activated by DNA damage and act as ligands for ZBP1 to trigger PANoptosis.

We found that ZBP1 expression is downregulated in tumor tissue. Furthermore, in colorectal cancer patients, dsRNA is induced by chemotherapy and sensed by ZBP1 in normal colonic tissues, suggesting ZBP1-mediated PANoptosis is activated by chemotherapy in normal tissues.

In our previous work, we identified a role for the epigenetic modifier ID-1 in temozolomide resistance in glioblastoma. Here, we show that ID-1-mediated glioblastoma tumourigenesis is accompanied by upregulation of one-carbon (1-C) mediated de novo purine synthesis. ID-1 knockout results in a significant reduction in the expression of 1-C metabolism and purine synthesis enzymes. Analysis of glioblastoma surgical specimens at initial presentation and recurrence reveals that 1-C purine synthesis metabolic enzymes are enriched in recurrent glioblastoma and that their expression correlates with a shorter time to tumor recurrence. Further, we show that the 1-C metabolic phenotype underlies proliferative capacity and temozolomide resistance in glioblastoma cells. Supplementation with exogenous purines restores proliferation in ID-1-deficient cells, while inhibition of purine synthesis with AICAR sensitizes temozolomide-resistant glioblastoma cells to temozolomide chemotherapy.

Nuclear receptor subfamily 5 group A member 2 (NR5A2), a transcription factor closely associated with cholesterol metabolism in the liver, has been hindered from comprehensive investigation due to the lethality of NR5A2 loss in cell lines and animal models. To elucidate the role of NR5A2 in NASH, we generated hepatocyte-specific knockout mice for Nr5a2 (Nr5a2<sup>HKO</sup>) and examined their liver morphology across different age groups under a regular diet. Furthermore, we established cell lines expressing haploid levels of NR5A2 and subsequently reintroduced various isoforms of NR5A2. In the liver of Nr5a2<sup>HKO</sup> mice, inflammation and fibrosis spontaneously emerged from an early age, independent of lipid accumulation. Pyroptosis occurred in NR5A2-deficient cell lines, and different isoforms of NR5A2 reversed this form of cell death. Our findings unveiled that inhibition of NR5A2 triggers pyroptosis, a proinflammatory mode of cell death primarily mediated by the activation of the NF-κB pathway induced by reactive oxygen species (ROS). As a transcriptionally regulated molecule of NR5A2, aldehyde dehydrogenase 1 family member B1 (ALDH1B1) participates in pyroptosis through modulation of ROS level. In conclusion, the diverse isoforms of NR5A2 exert hepatoprotective effects against NASH by maintaining a finely tuned balance of ROS, which is contingent upon the activity of ALDH1B1.</p>","PeriodicalId":9734,"journal":{"name":"Cell Death & Disease","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":8.1,"publicationDate":"2024-10-23","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC11496806/pdf/","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142495886","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":1,"RegionCategory":"生物学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
