Project Title:Transcriptional regulation of amino acid metabolism by KDM2B
Project Summary:Epigenetic and metabolic alterations in cancer cells are intertwined. The concentration of metabolites can influence the activity of chromatin modifiers, which in turn can act as metabolic sensors that translate changes in cellular metabolism to transcriptional reprogramming. In the present study, we investigated the role of histone demethylase KDM2B in the metabolic reprogramming of the triple-negative breast cancer (TNBC), in which KDM2B is selectively expressed at high levels. Knockdown of KDM2B in TNBC cell lines reduced their proliferation rate and tumor growth in vivo. Transcriptomic, proteomic, and metabolomic profiling demonstrated that the Serine-Glycine pathway and One Carbon metabolism (SGOC) and other amino acid biosynthetic and catabolic processes are downregulated by the knockdown of KDM2B. Additionally, we see reduction of metabolites produced via these pathways (purines, pyrimidines, formate, glutathione and NADPH). Importantly, the expression of the enzymes involved in the SGOC metabolic pathway (e.g. PHGDH, PSAT1, PSPH, SHMT2, MTHFD1L, MTHFD2 and DHFR) depends on c-MYC, NRF2, and ATF4 which our data show that they are under the positive regulatory control of KDM2B. The epistatic relationship between these factors, with the expression of the enzymes of the SGOC pathway and the effects of the KDM2B knockdown on chromatin occupancy and accessibility of the promoters of these factors is in progress and will be presented. Analysis of TCGA data showed positive and statistically significant correlations between KDM2B and the SGOC gene signature in TNBC patients. In addition, the metabolic pathway signature that distinguishes control and shKDM2B-transduced cells corresponds to the metabolic signature of a subset of TNBCs, which have been reported to carry poor prognosis. The present study highlights the role of the epigenetic factor KDM2B as an upstream regulator of the metabolic reprogramming of TNBC.
