Abstract:
Disturbances of the single sugar modification of proteins, O-GlcNAc, have been identified as a potential connection between disrupted brain metabolism and intellectual decay. In Alzheimer disease (AD), the reduced uptake of glucose in the brain results in aberrant O-GlcNAc cycling contributing to redox imbalance and neurodegeneration. Notably, alterations of O-GlcNAc homeostasis, associated with impaired O-GlcNAc transferase (OGT)/O-GlcNAcase (OGA) regulation, foster neuropathological mechanisms characterized by the presence of AD hallmarks in Down syndrome (DS) models. In the present study we examined the ability of Thiamet G (TMG), a well-known OGA inhibitor, in improving bio-energetic processes, inducing stress responses, reducing AD-related signatures and ameliorating cognition in a murine model of DS. Our data demonstrate that short-term intranasal administration of TMG restored OGA activity and normalized the global O-GlcNAc profile in mouse cortices. By a proteomic approach we identified protein components whose increased O-GlcNAc levels rescue, resulted to brain molecular and cognitive improvements. Remarkably, these included elements involved in energy production, neuronal architecture, antioxidant and stress response mechanisms. The ability of TMG in rescuing O-GlcNAc cycle and metabolic changes, associated with improved mitochondrial activity in cortical tissue, was further accompanied by changes in the O-GlcNAc/phospho ratio of APP and Tau. Functional improvements translated in enhanced recognition memory in Ts2Cje mice. Our study highlights the pivotal role of altered protein O-GlcNAcylation in DS neuropathology and establishes the molecular basis to envision the O-GlcNAc process as a promising therapeutic target to mitigate genetic- and metabolism-driven brain alterations linked to redox imbalance, mitochondrial failure and the development of AD features.

Abstract:
Pituitary adenomas have a staggering 16.7% lifetime prevalence and can be devastating in many patients because of profound endocrine and neurologic dysfunction. To date, no clear genomic or epigenomic markers correlate with their onset or severity. Herein, we investigate the impact of the O-GlcNAc posttranslational modification in their etiology. Found in more than 7000 human proteins to date, O-GlcNAcylation dynamically regulates proteins in critical signaling pathways, and its deregulation is involved in cancer progression and endocrine diseases such as diabetes. In this study, we demonstrated that O-GlcNAc enzymes were upregulated, particularly in aggressive adrenocorticotropin (ACTH)-secreting tumors, suggesting a role for O-GlcNAcylation in pituitary adenoma etiology. In addition to the demonstration that O-GlcNAcylation was essential for their proliferation, we showed that the endocrine function of pituitary adenoma is also dependent on O-GlcNAcylation. In corticotropic tumors, hypersecretion of the proopiomelanocortin (POMC)-derived hormone ACTH leads to Cushing disease, materialized by severe endocrine disruption and increased mortality. We demonstrated that Pomc messenger RNA is stabilized in an O-GlcNAc-dependent manner in response to corticotrophin-releasing hormone (CRH). By affecting Pomc mRNA splicing and stability, O-GlcNAcylation contributes to this new mechanism of fast hormonal response in corticotropes. Thus, this study stresses the essential role of O-GlcNAcylation in ACTH-secreting adenomas' pathophysiology, including cellular proliferation and hypersecretion.
