Abstract
Cancer cells integrate multiple biosynthetic demands to drive unrestricted proliferation. How these cellular processes crosstalk to fuel cancer cell growth is still not fully understood. Here, we uncover the mechanisms by which the transcription factor Carbohydrate responsive element binding protein (ChREBP) functions as an oncogene during hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) development. Mechanistically, ChREBP triggers the expression of the PI3K regulatory subunit p85α, to sustain the activity of the pro-oncogenic PI3K/AKT signaling pathway in HCC. In parallel, increased ChREBP activity reroutes glucose and glutamine metabolic fluxes into fatty acid and nucleic acid synthesis to support PI3K/AKT-mediated HCC growth. Thus, HCC cells have a ChREBP-driven circuitry that ensures balanced coordination between PI3K/AKT signaling and appropriate cell anabolism to support HCC development. Finally, pharmacological inhibition of ChREBP by SBI-993 significantly suppresses in vivo HCC tumor growth. Overall, we show that targeting ChREBP with specific inhibitors provides an attractive therapeutic window for HCC treatment.

Abstract
Centriolar satellites are multiprotein aggregates that orbit the centrosome and govern centrosome homeostasis and primary cilia formation. In contrast to the scaffold PCM1, which nucleates centriolar satellites and has been linked to microtubule dynamics, autophagy, and intracellular trafficking, the functions of its interactant CEP131 beyond ciliogenesis remain unclear. Using a knockout strategy in a non-ciliary T-cell line, we report that, although dispensable for centriolar satellite assembly, CEP131 participates in optimal tubulin glycylation and polyglutamylation, and microtubule regrowth. Our unsupervised label-free proteomic analysis by quantitative mass spectrometry further uncovered mitochondrial and apoptotic signatures. CEP131-deficient cells showed an elongated mitochondrial network. Upon cell death inducers targeting mitochondria, knockout cells displayed delayed cytochrome c release from mitochondria, subsequent caspase activation, and apoptosis. This mitochondrial permeabilization defect was intrinsic, and replicable in vitro with isolated organelles. These findings extend CEP131 functions to life-and-death decisions and propose ways to interfere with mitochondrial apoptosis.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Osteoarthritis is an age-related disease that currently faces a lack of symptomatic treatment. Inflammation, which is mainly sustained by pro-inflammatory cytokines such as IL-1b, TNF, and IL-6, plays an important role in osteoarthritis progression. In this context, pro-inflammatory cytokines are widely used to mimic the inflammatory component of osteoarthritis in vitro. However, the therapeutic failures of clinical trials evaluating anti-cytokines drugs highlight the lack of overall understanding of the effects of these cytokines on chondrocytes. METHODS Here, we generated a comprehensive transcriptomic and proteomic dataset of osteoarthritic chondrocytes treated with these cytokines to describe their pro-inflammatory signature and compare it to the transcriptome of non-osteoarthritic chondrocytes. Then, the dysregulations highlighted at the molecular level were functionally confirmed by real-time cellular metabolic assays. RESULTS We identified dysregulation of metabolic-related genes in osteoarthritic chondrocytes but not in non-osteoarthritic chondrocytes. A metabolic shift, toward increased glycolysis at the expense of mitochondrial respiration, was specifically confirmed in osteoarthritic chondrocytes treated with IL-1b or TNF. CONCLUSION These data show a strong and specific association between inflammation and metabolism in osteoarthritic chondrocytes, which was not found in non-osteoarthritic chondrocytes. This indicates that the link between inflammation and metabolic dysregulation may be exacerbated during chondrocyte damage in osteoarthritis. Video Abstract.

Abstract
Cancer treatment protocols depend on tumor type, localization, grade, and patient. Despite aggressive treatments, median survival of patients with Glioblastoma (GBM), the most common primary brain tumor in adults, does not exceed 18 months, and all patients eventually relapse. Thus, novel therapeutic approaches are urgently needed. Radiotherapy (RT) induces a multitude of alterations within the tumor ecosystem, ultimately modifying the degree of tumor immunogenicity at GBM relapse. The present manuscript reviews the diverse effects of RT radiotherapy on tumors, with a special focus on its immunomodulatory impact to finally discuss how RT could be exploited in GBM treatment through immunotherapy targeting. Indeed, while further experimental and clinical studies are definitively required to successfully translate preclinical results in clinical trials, current studies highlight the therapeutic potential of immunotherapy to uncover novel avenues to fight GBM.

Abstract
Despite significant advances, the eradication of cancer remains a clinical challenge which justifies the urgent exploration of additional therapeutic strategies such as immunotherapies. Human peripheral Vγ9Vδ2 T cells represent an attractive candidate subset for designing safe, feasible and effective adoptive T cell transfer-based therapies. However, following their infiltration within tumors, γδ T cells are exposed to various regulating constituents and signals from the tumor microenvironment (TME), which severely alter their antitumor functions. Here, we show that TGF-β, whose elevated production in some solid tumors is linked to a poor prognosis, interferes with the antigenic activation of human Vγ9Vδ2 T cells in vitro. This regulatory cytokine strongly impairs their cytolytic activity, which is accompanied by the induction of particular phenotypic, transcriptomic and metabolic changes. Collectively, these observations provide information for better understanding and targeting the impact of TME components to regulate the antitumor activity of human T cell effectors.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The mechanisms regulating CD8+ T cell migration to nonlymphoid tissue during inflammation have not been fully elucidated, and the migratory properties of effector memory CD8+ T cells that re-express CD45RA (TEMRA CD8+ T cells) remain unclear, despite their roles in autoimmune diseases and allotransplant rejection. METHODS We used single-cell proteomic profiling and functional testing of CD8+ T cell subsets to characterize their effector functions and migratory properties in healthy volunteers and kidney transplant recipients with stable or humoral rejection. RESULTS We showed that humoral rejection of a kidney allograft is associated with an accumulation of cytolytic TEMRA CD8+ T cells in blood and kidney graft biopsies. TEMRA CD8+ T cells from kidney transplant recipients exhibited enhanced migratory properties compared with effector memory (EM) CD8+ T cells, with enhanced adhesion to activated endothelium and transmigration in response to the chemokine CXCL12. CXCL12 directly triggers a purinergic P2×4 receptor-dependent proinflammatory response of TEMRA CD8+ T cells from transplant recipients. The stimulation with IL-15 promotes the CXCL12-induced migration of TEMRA and EM CD8+ T cells and promotes the generation of functional PSGL1, which interacts with the cell adhesion molecule P-selectin and adhesion of these cells to activated endothelium. Although disruption of the interaction between functional PSGL1 and P-selectin prevents the adhesion and transmigration of both TEMRA and EM CD8+ T cells, targeting VLA-4 or LFA-1 (integrins involved in T cell migration) specifically inhibited the migration of TEMRA CD8+ T cells from kidney transplant recipients. CONCLUSIONS Our findings highlight the active role of TEMRA CD8+ T cells in humoral transplant rejection and suggest that kidney transplant recipients may benefit from therapeutics targeting these cells.

Abstract
T-cell acute lymphoblastic leukemia (T-ALL) is an aggressive hematologic malignancy derived from early T cell progenitors. Since relapsed T-ALL is associated with a poor prognosis improving initial treatment of patients is essential to avoid resistant selection of T-ALL. During initiation, development, metastasis and even in response to chemotherapy, tumor cells face strong metabolic challenges. In this study, we identify mitochondrial UnCoupling Protein 2 (UCP2) as a tricarboxylic acid (TCA) cycle metabolite transporter controlling glutamine metabolism associated with T-ALL cell proliferation. In T-ALL cell lines, we show that UCP2 expression is controlled by glutamine metabolism and is essential for their proliferation. Our data show that T-ALL cell lines differ in their substrate dependency and their energetic metabolism (glycolysis and oxidative). Thus, while UCP2 silencing decreases cell proliferation in all leukemia cells, it also alters mitochondrial respiration of T-ALL cells relying on glutamine-dependent oxidative metabolism by rewiring their cellular metabolism to glycolysis. In this context, the function of UCP2 in the metabolite export of malate enables appropriate TCA cycle to provide building blocks such as lipids for cell growth and mitochondrial respiration. Therefore, interfering with UCP2 function can be considered as an interesting strategy to decrease metabolic efficiency and proliferation rate of leukemia cells.

Abstract
Brain tumors actively reprogram their cellular metabolism to survive and proliferate, thus offering potential therapeutic opportunities. Over the past decade, extensive research has been done on mutant IDH enzymes as markers of good prognosis in glioblastoma, a highly aggressive brain tumor in adults with dismal prognosis. Yet, 95% of glioblastoma are IDH wild-type. Here, we review current knowledge about IDH wild-type enzymes and their putative role in mechanisms driving tumor progression. After a brief overview on tumor metabolic adaptation, we present the diverse metabolic function of IDH enzymes and their roles in glioblastoma initiation, progression and response to treatments. Finally, we will discuss wild-type IDH targeting in primary glioblastoma.

Abstract
Background and Objectives Inhibition of de novo pyrimidine synthesis in proliferating T and B lymphocytes by teriflunomide, a pharmacological inhibitor of dihydroorotate dehydrogenase (DHODH), has been shown to be an effective therapy to treat patients with MS in placebo-controlled phase 3 trials. Nevertheless, the underlying mechanism contributing to the efficacy of DHODH inhibition has been only partially elucidated. Here, we aimed to determine the impact of teriflunomide on the immune compartment in a longitudinal high-dimensional follow-up of patients with relapse-remitting MS (RRMS) treated with teriflunomide. Methods High-dimensional spectral flow cytometry was used to analyze the phenotype and the function of innate and adaptive immune system of patients with RRMS before and 12 months after teriflunomide treatment. In addition, we assessed the impact of teriflunomide on the migration of memory CD8 T cells in patients with RRMS, and we defined patient immune metabolic profiles. Results We found that 12 months of treatment with teriflunomide in patients with RRMS does not affect the B cell or CD4 T cell compartments, including regulatory TREG follicular helper TFH cell and helper TH cell subsets. In contrast, we observed a specific impact of teriflunomide on the CD8 T cell compartment, which was characterized by decreased homeostatic proliferation and reduced production of TNFα and IFNγ. Furthermore, we showed that DHODH inhibition also had a negative impact on the migratory velocity of memory CD8 T cells in patients with RRMS. Finally, we showed that the susceptibility of memory CD8 T cells to DHODH inhibition was not related to impaired metabolism. Discussion Overall, these findings demonstrate that the clinical efficacy of teriflunomide results partially in the specific susceptibility of memory CD8 T cells to DHODH inhibition in patients with RRMS and strengthens active roles for these T cells in the pathophysiological process of MS.

Abstract
The tumor microenvironment (TME) controls many aspects of cancer development but little is known about its effect in Glioblastoma (GBM), the main brain tumor in adults. Tumor-activated stromal cell (TASC) population, a component of TME in GBM, was induced in vitro by incubation of MSCs with culture media conditioned by primary cultures of GBM under 3D/organoid conditions. We observed mitochondrial transfer by Tunneling Nanotubes (TNT), extracellular vesicles (EV) and cannibalism from the TASC to GBM and analyzed its effect on both proliferation and survival. We created primary cultures of GBM or TASC in which we have eliminated mitochondrial DNA [Rho 0 (ρ0) cells]. We found that TASC, as described in other cancers, increased GBM proliferation and resistance to standard treatments (radiotherapy and chemotherapy). We analyzed the incorporation of purified mitochondria by ρ0 and ρ+ cells and a derived mathematical model taught us that ρ+ cells incorporate more rapidly pure mitochondria than ρ0 cells.

Abstract
Colorectal cancer (CRC) is associated with metabolic and redox perturbation. The mitochondrial transporter uncoupling protein 2 (UCP2) controls cell proliferation in vitro through the modulation of cellular metabolism, but the underlying mechanism in tumors in vivo remains unexplored. Using murine intestinal cancer models and CRC patient samples, we find higher UCP2 protein levels in tumors compared to their non-tumoral counterparts. We reveal the tumor-suppressive role of UCP2 as its deletion enhances colon and small intestinal tumorigenesis in AOM/DSS-treated and ApcMin/+ mice, respectively, and correlates with poor survival in the latter model. Mechanistically, UCP2 loss increases levels of oxidized glutathione and proteins in tumors. UCP2 deficiency alters glycolytic pathways while promoting phospholipid synthesis, thereby limiting the availability of NADPH for buffering oxidative stress. We show that UCP2 loss renders colon cells more prone to malignant transformation through metabolic reprogramming and perturbation of redox homeostasis and could favor worse outcomes in CRC. UCP2 protein expression, but not mRNA, is increased in CRC in both mice and humans UCP2 loss promotes AOM/DSS-induced CAC and ApcMin-dependent intestinal cancer UCP2 loss-induced oxidative stress contributes to increased colon tumorigenesis UCP2 deficiency drives an imbalance between lipid metabolism and NADPH homeostasis

Abstract
The levels and composition of sphingolipids and related metabolites are altered in aging and in common disorders such as diabetes and cancers, as well as in neurodegenerative, cardiovascular, and respiratory diseases. Changes in sphingolipids have been implicated as being an essential step in mitochondria-driven cell death. However, little is known about the precise sphingolipid composition and modulation in mitochondria or related organelles. Here, we used LC-MS/MS to analyze the presence of key components of the ceramide metabolic pathway in vivo and in vitro in purified ER, mitochondria-associated membranes (MAMs), and mitochondria. Specifically, we analyzed the sphingolipids in the three pathways that generate ceramide: sphinganine in the de novo ceramide pathway, SM in the breakdown pathway, and sphingosine in the salvage pathway. We observed sphingolipid profiles in mouse liver, mouse brain, and a human glioma cell line (U251). We analyzed the quantitative and qualitative changes of these sphingolipids during staurosporine-induced apoptosis in U251 cells. Ceramide (especially C16-ceramide) levels increased during early apoptosis possibly through a conversion from mitochondrial sphinganine and SM, but sphingosine and lactosyl- and glycosyl-ceramide levels were unaffected. We also found that ceramide generation is enhanced in mitochondria when SM levels are decreased in the MAM. This decrease was associated with an increase in acid sphingomyelinase activity in MAM. We conclude that meaningful sphingolipid modifications occur in MAM, the mitochondria, and the ER during the early steps of apoptosis.

Abstract
Ceramide-induced endothelial cell apoptosis boosts intestinal stem cell radiosensitivity. However, the molecular connection between these two cellular compartments has not been clearly elucidated. Here we report that ceramide and its related enzyme acid sphingomyelinase (ASM) are secreted by irradiated endothelial cells and act as bystander factors to enhance the radiotoxicity of intestinal epithelium. Ceramide and the two isoforms of ASM were acutely secreted in the blood serum of wild-type mice after 15 Gy radiation dose, inducing a gastrointestinal syndrome. Interestingly, serum ceramide was not enhanced in irradiated ASMKO mice, which are unable to develop intestinal failure injury. Because ASM/ceramide were secreted by primary endothelial cells, their contribution was studied in intestinal epithelium dysfunction using coculture of primary endothelial cells and intestinal T84 cells. Adding exogenous ASM or ceramide enhanced epithelial cell growth arrest and death. Conversely, blocking their secretion by endothelial cells using genetic, pharmacologic, or immunologic approaches abolished intestinal T84 cell radiosensitivity. Use of enteroid models revealed ASM and ceramide-mediated deleterious mode-of-action: when ceramide reduced the number of intestinal crypt-forming enteroids without affecting their structure, ASM induced a significant decrease of enteroid growth without affecting their number. Identification of specific and different roles for ceramide and ASM secreted by irradiated endothelial cells opens new perspectives in the understanding of intestinal epithelial dysfunction after radiation and defines a new class of potential therapeutic radiomitigators. SIGNIFICANCE: This study identifies secreted ASM and ceramide as paracrine factors enhancing intestinal epithelial dysfunction, revealing a previously unknown class of mediators of radiosensitivity.

Abstract
Drug resistance limits the therapeutic efficacy in cancers and leads to tumor recurrence through ill-defined mechanisms. Glioblastoma (GBM) are the deadliest brain tumors in adults. GBM, at diagnosis or after treatment, are resistant to temozolomide (TMZ), the standard chemotherapy. To better understand the acquisition of this resistance, we performed a longitudinal study, using a combination of mathematical models, RNA sequencing, single cell analyses, functional and drug assays in a human glioma cell line (U251). After an initial response characterized by cell death induction, cells entered a transient state defined by slow growth, a distinct morphology and a shift of metabolism. Specific genes expression associated to this population revealed chromatin remodeling. Indeed, the histone deacetylase inhibitor trichostatin (TSA), specifically eliminated this population and thus prevented the appearance of fast growing TMZ-resistant cells. In conclusion, we have identified in glioblastoma a population with tolerant-like features, which could constitute a therapeutic target.

Abstract
Cell therapy is a promising strategy for treating patients suffering from autoimmune or inflammatory diseases or receiving a transplant. Based on our preclinical studies, we have generated human autologous tolerogenic dendritic cells (ATDCs), which are being tested in a first-in-man clinical trial in kidney transplant recipients. Here, we report that ATDCs represent a unique subset of monocyte-derived cells based on phenotypic, transcriptomic, and metabolic analyses. ATDCs are characterized by their suppression of T cell proliferation and their expansion of Tregs through secreted factors. ATDCs produce high levels of lactate that shape T cell responses toward tolerance. Indeed, T cells take up ATDC-secreted lactate, leading to a decrease of their glycolysis. In vivo, ATDCs promote elevated levels of circulating lactate and delay graft-versus-host disease by reducing T cell proliferative capacity. The suppression of T cell immunity through lactate production by ATDCs is a novel mechanism that distinguishes ATDCs from other cell-based immunotherapies.

Abstract
PURPOSE Cellular immunotherapies are currently being explored to eliminate highly invasive and chemoradioresistant glioblastoma (GBM) cells involved in rapid relapse. We recently showed that concomitant stereotactic injections of nonalloreactive allogeneic Vγ9Vδ2 T lymphocytes eradicate zoledronate-primed human GBM cells. In the present study, we investigated the spontaneous reactivity of allogeneic human Vγ9Vδ2 T lymphocytes toward primary human GBM cells, in vitro and in vivo, in the absence of any prior sensitization. EXPERIMENTAL DESIGN Through functional and transcriptomic analyses, we extensively characterized the immunoreactivity of human Vγ9Vδ2 T lymphocytes against various primary GBM cultures directly derived from patient tumors. RESULTS We evidenced that GBM cells displaying a mesenchymal signature are spontaneously eliminated by allogeneic human Vγ9Vδ2 T lymphocytes, a reactivity process being mediated by γδ T-cell receptor (TCR) and tightly regulated by cellular stress-associated NKG2D pathway. This led to the identification of highly reactive Vγ9Vδ2 T lymphocyte populations, independently of a specific TCR repertoire signature. Moreover, we finally provide evidence of immunotherapeutic efficacy in vivo, in the absence of any prior tumor cell sensitization. CONCLUSIONS By identifying pathways implicated in the selective natural recognition of mesenchymal GBM cell subtypes, accounting for 30% of primary diagnosed and 60% of recurrent GBM, our results pave the way for novel targeted cellular immunotherapies.

Abstract
Stem cell chemoresistance remains challenging the efficacy of the front-line temozolomide against glioblastoma. Novel therapies are urgently needed to fight those cells in order to control tumor relapse. Here, we report that anti-O-acetyl-GD2 adjuvant immunotherapy controls glioma stem-like cell-driven chemoresistance. Using patient-derived glioblastoma cells, we found that glioma stem-like cells overexpressed O-acetyl-GD2. As a result, monoclonal antibody 8B6 immunotherapy significantly increased temozolomide genotoxicity and tumor cell death in vitro by enhancing temozolomide tumor uptake. Furthermore, the combination therapy decreased the expression of the glioma stem-like cell markers CD133 and Nestin and compromised glioma stem-like cell self-renewal capabilities. When tested in vivo, adjuvant 8B6 immunotherapy prevented the extension of the temozolomide-resistant glioma stem-like cell pool within the tumor bulk in vivo and was more effective than the single agent therapies. This is the first report demonstrating that anti-O-acetyl-GD2 monoclonal antibody 8B6 targets glioblastoma in a manner that control temozolomide-resistance driven by glioma stem-like cells. Together our results offer a proof of concept for using anti-O-acetyl GD2 reagents in glioblastoma to develop more efficient combination therapies for malignant gliomas.

Abstract
Over the years, substantial evidence has definitively confirmed the existence of cancer stem-like cells within tumors such as Glioblastoma (GBM). The importance of Glioblastoma stem-like cells (GSCs) in tumor progression and relapse clearly highlights that cancer eradication requires killing of GSCs that are intrinsically resistant to conventional therapies as well as eradication of the non-GSCs cells since GSCs emergence relies on a dynamic process. The past decade of research highlights that metabolism is a significant player in tumor progression and actually might orchestrate it. The growing interest in cancer metabolism reprogrammation can lead to innovative approaches exploiting metabolic vulnerabilities of cancer cells. These approaches are challenging since they require overcoming the compensatory and adaptive responses of GSCs. In this review, we will summarize the current knowledge on GSCs with a particular focus on their metabolic complexity. We will also discuss potential approaches targeting GSCs metabolism to potentially improve clinical care.

Abstract
Glioblastoma multiforme (GBM), the most frequent and aggressive primary brain cancer in adults, is generally associated with a poor prognosis, and scarce efficient therapies have been proposed over the last decade. Among the promising candidates for designing novel therapeutic strategies, cellular immunotherapies have been targeted to eliminate highly invasive and chemo-radioresistant tumor cells, likely involved in a rapid and fatal relapse of this cancer. Thus, administration(s) of allogeneic GBM-reactive immune cell effectors, such as human Vϒ9Vδ2 T lymphocytes, in the vicinity of the tumor would represents a unique opportunity to deliver efficient and highly concentrated therapeutic agents directly into the site of brain malignancies. Here, we present a protocol for the preparation and the stereotaxic administration of allogeneic human lymphocytes in immunodeficient mice carrying orthotopic human primary brain tumors. This study provides a preclinical proof-of-concept for both the feasibility and the antitumor efficacy of these cellular immunotherapies that rely on stereotactic injections of allogeneic human lymphocytes within intrabrain tumor beds.

Abstract
Induced pluripotent stem cells (iPSCs) have considerably impacted human developmental biology and regenerative medicine, notably because they circumvent the use of cells of embryonic origin and offer the potential to generate patient-specific pluripotent stem cells. However, conventional reprogramming protocols produce developmentally advanced, or primed, human iPSCs (hiPSCs), restricting their use to post-implantation human development modeling. Hence, there is a need for hiPSCs resembling preimplantation naive epiblast. Here, we develop a method to generate naive hiPSCs directly from somatic cells, using OKMS overexpression and specific culture conditions, further enabling parallel generation of their isogenic primed counterparts. We benchmark naive hiPSCs against human preimplantation epiblast and reveal remarkable concordance in their transcriptome, dependency on mitochondrial respiration and X-chromosome status. Collectively, our results are essential for the understanding of pluripotency regulation throughout preimplantation development and generate new opportunities for disease modeling and regenerative medicine.

Abstract
Purpose: Glioblastoma (GBM) is the most common and malignant form of primary human brain tumor in adults, with an average survival at diagnosis of 18 months. Metabolism is a new attractive therapeutic target in cancer; however, little is known about metabolic heterogeneity and plasticity within GBM tumors. We therefore aimed to investigate metabolic phenotyping of primary cultures in the context of molecular tumor heterogeneity to provide a proof of concept for personalized metabolic targeting of GBM.Experimental Design: We have analyzed extensively several primary GBM cultures using transcriptomics, metabolic phenotyping assays, and mitochondrial respirometry.Results: We found that metabolic phenotyping clearly identifies 2 clusters, GLNHigh and GLNLow, mainly based on metabolic plasticity and glutamine (GLN) utilization. Inhibition of glutamine metabolism slows the in vitro and in vivo growth of GLNHigh GBM cultures despite metabolic adaptation to nutrient availability, in particular by increasing pyruvate shuttling into mitochondria. Furthermore, phenotypic and molecular analyses show that highly proliferative GLNHigh cultures are CD133neg and display a mesenchymal signature in contrast to CD133pos GLNLow GBM cells.Conclusions: Our results show that metabolic phenotyping identified an essential metabolic pathway in a GBM cell subtype, and provide a proof of concept for theranostic metabolic targeting.

Abstract
Ionizing radiation causes oxidative stress, leading to acute and late cellular responses. We previously demonstrated that irradiation of non-proliferating endothelial cells, as observed in normal tissues, induces early apoptosis, which can be inhibited by pretreatment with Sphingosine-1-Phosphate. We now propose to better characterize the long-term radiation response of endothelial cells by studying the molecular pathways associated with senescence and its link with acute apoptosis. First, senescence was validated in irradiated quiescent microvascular HMVEC-L in a dose- and time-dependent manner by SA β-galactosidase staining, p16Ink4a and p21Waf1 expression, pro-inflammatory IL-8 secretion and DNA damage response activation. This premature aging was induced independently of Sphingosine 1-Phosphate treatment, supporting its non-connection with acute IR-induced apoptosis. Then, senescence under these conditions showed persistent activation of p53 pathway and mitochondrial dysfunctions, characterized by O2·- generation, inhibition of respiratory complex II activity and over-expression of SOD2 and GPX1 detoxification enzymes. Senescence was significantly inhibited by treatment with pifithrin-α, a p53 inhibitor, or by MnTBAP, a superoxide dismutase mimetic, validating those molecular actors in IR-induced endothelial cell aging. However, MnTBAP, but not pifithrin-α, was able to limit superoxide generation and to rescue the respiratory complex II activity. Furthermore, MnTBAP was not modulating p53 up-regulation, suggesting that IR-induced senescence in quiescent endothelial cells is provided by at least 2 different pathways dependent of the mitochondrial oxidative stress response and the p53 activation. Further characterization of the actors involved in the respiratory complex II dysfunction will open new pharmacological strategies to modulate late radiation toxicity.

Abstract
Humans are chronically exposed to multiple environmental pollutants such as pesticides with no significant evidence about the safety of such poly-exposures. We exposed mesenchymal stem cells (MSC) to very low doses of mixture of seven pesticides frequently detected in food samples for 21 days in vitro. We observed a permanent phenotype modification with a specific induction of an oxidative stress-related senescence. Pesticide mixture also induced a shift in MSC differentiation towards adipogenesis but did not initiate a tumorigenic transformation. In modified MSC in which a premalignant phenotype was induced, the exposure to pesticide mixture promoted tumorigenic phenotype both in vitro and in vivo after cell implantation, in all nude mice. Our results suggest that a common combination of pesticides can induce a premature ageing of adult MSC, and as such could accelerate age-related diseases. Exposure to pesticide mixture may also promote the tumorigenic transformation in a predisposed stromal environment. Abstract Video Link: https://youtu.be/mfSVPTol-Gk Stem Cells 2017;35:800-811.

Abstract
Glioblastoma multiforme (GBM) represents the most frequent and deadliest primary brain tumor. Aggressive treatment still fails to eliminate deep brain infiltrative and highly resistant tumor cells. Human Vγ9Vδ2 T cells, the major peripheral blood γδ T cell subset, react against a wide array of tumor cells and represent attractive immune effector T cells for the design of antitumor therapies. This study aims at providing a preclinical rationale for immunotherapies in GBM based on stereotaxic administration of allogeneic human Vγ9Vδ2 T cells. The feasibility and the antitumor efficacy of stereotaxic Vγ9Vδ2 T cell injections have been investigated in orthotopic GBM mice model using selected heterogeneous and invasive primary human GBM cells. Allogeneic human Vγ9Vδ2 T cells survive and patrol for several days within the brain parenchyma following adoptive transfer and can successfully eliminate infiltrative GBM primary cells. These striking observations pave the way for optimized stereotaxic antitumor immunotherapies targeting human allogeneic Vγ9Vδ2 T cells in GBM patients.

Abstract
Glioblastoma Multiforme (GBM) is the most common brain cancer in adults. Radiotherapy (RT) is the most effective post-operative treatment for the patients even though GBM is one of the most radio-resistant tumors. Dead or dying cells within the tumor are thought to promote resistance to treatment through mechanisms that are very poorly understood. We have evaluated the role of Prostaglandin E2 (PGE2), a versatile bioactive lipid, in GBM radio-resistance. We used an in vitro approach using 3D primary cultures derived from representative GBM patients. We show that irradiated glioma cells produced and released PGE2 in important quantities independently of the induction of cell death. We demonstrate that the addition of PGE2 enhances cell survival and proliferation though its ability to trans-activate the Epithelial Growth Factor receptor (EGFR) and to activate β-catenin. Indeed, PGE2 can substitute for EGF to promote primary cultures survival and growth in vitro and the effect is likely to occur though the Prostaglandin E2 receptor EP2.

Abstract
Infiltration of effector CD8 T cells plays a major role in allograft rejection, and increases in memory and terminally differentiated effector memory CD8 T cells are associated with long-term allograft dysfunction. Alternatively, CD8 regulatory T cells suppress the inflammatory responses of effector lymphocytes and induce allograft tolerance in animal models. Recently, there has been a renewed interest in the field of immunometabolics and its important role in CD8 function and differentiation. The purpose of this review is to highlight the key metabolic pathways involved in CD8 T cells and to discuss how manipulating these metabolic pathways could lead to new immunosuppressive strategies for the transplantation field.

Abstract
Somatic mutations in isocitrate dehydrogenase (IDH)-1 and -2 have recently been described in glioma. This mutation leads to a neomorphic enzymatic activity as the conversion of isocitrate to alpha ketoglutarate (αKG) is replaced by the conversion of αKG to D-2-hydroxyglutarate (D-2HG) with NADPH oxidation. It has been suggested that this oncometabolite D-2HG via inhibition of αKG-dioxygenases is involved in multiple functions such as epigenetic modifications or hypoxia responses. The present study is aimed at deciphering how the mutant IDH can affect cancer pathogenesis, in particular with respect to its associated oncometabolite D-2HG. We show that the overexpression of mutant IDH in glioma cells or treatment with D-2HG triggered an increase in cell proliferation. However, although mutant IDH reduced cell sensitivity to the apoptotic inducer etoposide, D-2HG exhibited no effect on apoptosis. Instead, we found that the apoptotic effect was mediated through the mitochondrial NADH pool reduction and could be inhibited by oxamate. These data show that besides D-2HG production, mutant IDH affects other crucial metabolite pools. These observations lead to a better understanding of the biology of IDH mutations in gliomas and their response to therapy.

Abstract
Invalidation of uncoupling protein 2 (Ucp2) increases glucose utilization and proliferation in normal cells. We recently reported that cancer cells that overexpress UCP2 become less tumorigenic while switching their metabolism from glycolysis to oxidative phosphorylation. UCP2 appears to be a key regulator of cellular metabolism with a relevant function against tumorigenesis.

Abstract
Cancer cells tilt their energy production away from oxidative phosphorylation (OXPHOS) toward glycolysis during malignant progression, even when aerobic metabolism is available. Reversing this phenomenon, known as the Warburg effect, may offer a generalized anticancer strategy. In this study, we show that overexpression of the mitochondrial membrane transport protein UCP2 in cancer cells is sufficient to restore a balance toward oxidative phosphorylation and to repress malignant phenotypes. Altered expression of glycolytic and oxidative enzymes mediated the effects of this metabolic shift. Notably, UCP2 overexpression increased signaling from the master energy-regulating kinase, adenosine monophosphate-activated protein kinase, while downregulating expression of hypoxia-induced factor. In support of recent new evidence about UCP2 function, we found that UCP2 did not function in this setting as a membrane potential uncoupling protein, but instead acted to control routing of mitochondria substrates. Taken together, our results define a strategy to reorient mitochondrial function in cancer cells toward OXPHOS that restricts their malignant phenotype.

Abstract
Glioma stem cells are highly resistant to cell death and as such are supposed to contribute to tumor recurrence by eluding anticancer treatments. Here, we show that spheroids that contain rat neural stem cells (NSCs) or rat glioma stem cells (cancer stem cells, CSCs) express isoforms 1 and 2 of pyruvate kinase (PKM1 and PKM2); however, the expression of PKM2 is considerably higher in glioma spheroids. Silencing of PKM2 enhances both apoptosis and differentiation of rat and human glioma spheroids. We establish that PKM2 was implicated in glioma spheroid differentiation through its interaction with Oct4, a major regulator of self-renewal and differentiation in stem cells. The small molecule Dichloroacetate (DCA), a pyruvate dehydrogenase kinase inhibitor, increases the amount of PKM2/Oct4 complexes and thus inhibited Oct4-dependent gene expression. Taken together, our results highlight a new molecular pathway through which PKM2 can manage gliomagenesis via the control of glioma stemness by Oct4.

Abstract
We have recently shown that the in vitro differentiation of human mesenchymal stem cells (hMSCs) was accompanied by an increased sensitivity toward apoptosis; however, the mechanism responsible for this shift is not known. Here, we show that the repair of DNA double-strand breaks (DSBs) was more rapid in undifferentiated hMSCs than in differentiated osteoblasts by quantification of the disappearance of γ-H2AX foci in the nuclei after γ-irradiation-induced DNA damage. In addition, there was a marked and prolonged increase in the level of nuclear Ku70 and an increased phosphorylation of DNA-PKcs. This was accompanied by an augmentation in the phosphorylation of ATM in hMSCs post-irradiation suggesting the nonhomologous end joining repair mechanism. However, when hMSCs were induced to differentiate along the osteogenic or adipogenic pathways; irradiation of these cells caused an expeditious and robust cell death, which was primarily apoptotic. This was in sharp contrast to undifferentiated hMSCs, which were highly resistant to irradiation and/or temozolomide-induced DSBs. In addition, we observed a 95% recovery from DSB in these cells. Our results suggest that apoptosis and DNA repair are major safeguard mechanisms in the control of hMSCs differentiation after DNA damage.

Abstract
Mitochondrial uncoupling of oxidative phosphorylation may serve a variety of purposes such as the regulation of substrate oxidation, free radical production (a major by-product of mitochondrial respiration) and ATP production and turnover. As regulators of energy expenditure and antioxidant defenses, uncoupling proteins would seem to offer an attractive mechanism by which to explain the control of body weight, resting metabolic rate and aging. As a result, the discovery of UCP1 homologues has led to an impressive number of publications. However, 10 years after their identification, no consensus has been found concerning the function of UCP homologues, and there are controversies as to whether or not they even have physiologically significant uncoupling activity. Here, we discuss a potential new function for UCP2, as a carrier involved in the coupling between glucose oxidation and mitochondrial metabolism.

Abstract
Adaptation to the extrauterine environment at birth relies upon the onset of postnatal function and increased metabolism in the lungs, liver and kidney, mediated partly by activation of mitochondrial proteins such as the voltage-dependent anion channel (VDAC), cytochrome c and, in the lung only, uncoupling protein (UCP)2. The magnitude of adaptation is dependent on the maternal metabolic and endocrine environment. We, therefore, examined the influence of maternal cold exposure (MCE) induced by winter shearing of pregnant sheep in conjunction with nutrient restriction (NR; 50% reduction in maternal food intake from 110 days gestation up to term). The effect of parity was also examined, as the offspring of nulliparous mothers are growth restricted compared with multiparous offspring. All sheep were twin bearing. One twin was sampled after birth and its sibling at 30 days. In the lung, both MCE and maternal nulliparity enhanced UCP2 abundance. However, whilst VDAC abundance was decreased in both the offspring of nulliparous mothers and by NR, it was transiently raised by MCE. Kidney VDAC abundance was reduced by MCE and nulliparity, adaptations only influenced by NR in multiparous mothers. Cytochrome c abundance was raised by MCE and by NR in multiparous controls and raised in offspring of nulliparous mothers. Liver VDAC and cytochrome c abundance were transiently reduced by MCE and persistently lower in offspring of nulliparous mothers. In conclusion, changes in the maternal metabolic environment have marked tissue-specific effects on mitochondrial protein abundance in the lungs, liver and kidney that may be important in enabling the newborn to effectively adapt to the extrauterine environment.

Abstract
Uncoupling protein-2 (UCP2) belongs to the mitochondrial carrier family and has been thought to be involved in suppressing mitochondrial ROS production through uncoupling mitochondrial respiration from ATP synthesis. However, we show here that loss of function of UCP2 does not result in a significant increase in ROS production or an increased propensity for cells to undergo senescence in culture. Instead, Ucp2-/- cells display enhanced proliferation associated with a metabolic switch from fatty acid oxidation to glucose metabolism. This metabolic switch requires the unrestricted availability of glucose, and Ucp2-/- cells more readily activate autophagy than wild-type cells when deprived of glucose. Altogether, these results suggest that UCP2 promotes mitochondrial fatty acid oxidation while limiting mitochondrial catabolism of pyruvate. The persistence of fatty acid catabolism in Ucp2+/+ cells during a proliferative response correlates with reduced cell proliferation and enhances resistance to glucose starvation-induced autophagy.

Abstract
Uncoupling proteins (UCP) 1 and 2 are members of the subfamily of inner mitochondrial membrane carriers. UCP1 is specific to brown adipose tissue (BAT), where it is responsible for the rapid production of heat at birth. In fetal sheep UCP1 is first detectable at approximately 900d of gestation; its abundance increases with gestational age and peaks at the time of birth. The mRNA and protein for both the long and short form of the prolactin (PRL) receptor (PRLR) are also highly abundant in BAT. Enhanced PRLR abundance in late gestation is associated with an increase in the abundance of UCP1. This relationship between PRLR and UCP is not only present in BAT. Similar findings are now reported in the pregnant ovine uterus, where PRLR abundance reaches a maximum just before that of UCP2. However, the role of PRLR in BAT remains undetermined. Rat studies have shown that PRL administration throughout pregnancy results in offspring with increased UCP1 at birth. Studies in newborn lambs have shown that administration of PRL (20mg/d) causes an acute response, increasing colonic temperature in the first hour by 1°. This increased colonic temperature is maintained for the first 240h of life, in conjunction with enhanced lipolysis. After 70d of treatment there is no difference in the abundance of UCP1 but an increase in UCP1 activity; this effect may be mediated by an increase in lipolysis. Taken together these findings suggest that PRL could be an important endocrine factor during pregnancy and early postnatal life.

Abstract
The proton-transport activity of UCP1 (uncoupling protein 1) triggers mitochondrial uncoupling and thermogenesis. The exact role of its close homologues, UCP2 and UCP3, is unclear. Mounting evidence associates them with the control of mitochondrial superoxide production. Using CHO (Chinese-hamster ovary) cells stably expressing UCP3 or UCP1, we found no evidence for respiration uncoupling. The explanation lies in the absence of an appropriate activator of UCP protonophoric function. Accordingly, the addition of retinoic acid uncouples the respiration of the UCP1-expressing clone, but not that of the UCP3-expressing ones. In a glucose-containing medium, the extent of the hyperpolarization of mitochondria by oligomycin was close to 22 mV in the five UCP3-expressing clones, contrasting with the variable values observed with the 15 controls. Our observations suggest that, when glycolysis and mitochondria generate ATP, and in the absence of appropriate activators of proton transport, UCPs do not transport protons (uncoupling), but rather other ions of physiological relevance that control mitochondrial activity. A model is proposed using the known passive transport of pyruvate by UCP1.

Abstract
In the neonate, adipose tissue and the lung both undergo a rapid transition after birth, which results in dramatic changes in uncoupling protein abundance and glucocorticoid action. Leptin potentially mediates some of these adaptations and is known to promote the loss of uncoupling protein (UCP)1, but its effects on other mitochondrial proteins or glucocorticoid action are not known. We therefore determined the effects of acute and chronic administration of ovine recombinant leptin on brown adipose tissue (BAT) and/or lung in neonatal sheep. For the acute study, eight pairs of 1-day-old lambs received, sequentially, 10, 100, and 100 mug of leptin or vehicle before tissue sampling 4 h from the start of the study, whereas in the chronic study, nine pairs of 1-day-old lambs received 100 mug of leptin or vehicle daily for 6 days before tissue sampling on day 7. Acute leptin decreased the abundance of UCP2, glucocorticoid receptor, and 11beta-hydroxysteroid dehydrogenase (11beta-HSD) type 1 mRNA and increased 11beta-HSD type 2 mRNA abundance in BAT, a pattern that was reversed with chronic leptin administration, which also diminished lung UCP2 protein abundance. In BAT, UCP2 mRNA abundance was positively correlated to plasma leptin and nonesterified fatty acids and negatively correlated to mean colonic temperature in the leptin group at 7 days. In conclusion, leptin administration to the neonatal lambs causes differential effects on UCP2 abundance in BAT and lung. These effects may be important in the development of these tissues, thereby optimizing lung function and fat growth.

Abstract
Many tissues undergo a rapid transition after birth, accompanied by dramatic changes in mitochondrial protein function. In particular, uncoupling protein (UCP) abundance increases at birth in the lung and adipose tissue, to then gradually decline, an adaptation that is important in enabling normal tissue function. Leptin potentially mediates some of these changes and is known to promote the loss of UCP1 from brown fat but its effects on UCP2 and related mitochondrial proteins (i.e. voltage-dependent anion channel (VDAC) and cytochrome c) in other tissues are unknown. We therefore determined the effects of once-daily jugular venous administration of ovine recombinant leptin on mitochondrial protein abundance as determined by immunoblotting in tissues that do (i.e. the brain and pancreas) and do not (i.e. liver and skeletal muscle) express UCP2. Eight pairs of 1-day-old lambs received either 100 mug leptin or vehicle daily for 6 days, before tissue sampling on day 7. Administration of leptin diminished UCP2 abundance in the pancreas, but not the brain. Leptin administration had no affect on the abundance of VDAC or cytochrome c in any tissue examined. In leptin-administered animals, but not controls, UCP2 abundance in the pancreas was positively correlated with VDAC and cytochrome c content, and UCP2 abundance in the brain with colonic temperature. In conclusion, leptin administration to neonatal lambs causes a tissue-specific loss of UCP2 from the pancreas. These effects may be important in the regulation of neonatal tissue development and potentially for optimising metabolic control mechanisms in later life.

Abstract
The mitochondrial carrier family transports a variety of metabolites across the inner mitochondrial membrane. We identified and cloned a new member of this family, KMCP1 (kidney mitochondrial carrier protein-1), that is highly homologous to the previously identified protein BMCP1 (brain mitochondrial carrier protein-1). Western blotting and in situ experiments showed that this carrier is expressed predominantly within the kidney cortex in the proximal and distal tubules. KMCP1 was increased during fasting and during the regenerative phase of glycerol-induced renal failure. We show that both situations are associated with transiently increased expression of superoxide-generating enzymes, followed by increased mitochondrial metabolism and antioxidant defenses. Given that KMCP1 expression occurs simultaneously with these latter events, we propose that KMCP1 is involved in situations in which mitochondrial metabolism is increased, in particular when the cellular redox balance tends toward a pro-oxidant status.

Abstract
The present study aimed to determine whether porcine genotype and/or postnatal age influenced mRNA abundance or protein expression of uncoupling protein (UCP)2 or 3 in subcutaneous adipose tissue (AT) and skeletal muscle (SM) and the extent to which these differences are associated with breed-specific discordance in endocrine and metabolic profiles. Piglets from commercial and Meishan litters were ranked according to birth weight. Tissue samples were obtained from the three median piglets from each litter on either day 0, 4, 7, 14 or 21 of neonatal life. UCP2 protein abundance in AT was similar between genotypes on the first day of life, but it was elevated at all subsequent postnatal ages (P<0.05) in AT of Meishan piglets. In contrast, UCP2 mRNA abundance was lower in Meishans up to 14 days of age. UCP2 mRNA expression was not correlated with protein abundance in either breed at any age. UCP3 mRNA in AT was similar between breeds up to day 7; thereafter, expression was higher (general linear model, P<0.05) in Meishan piglets. Conversely, UCP3 mRNA expression in SM was higher in commercial piglets after day 7. Colonic temperature remained lower in Meishan than commercial piglets throughout the study; this was most obvious in the immediate post-partum period when Meishan piglets had lower (P<0.05) plasma triiodothyronine. In conclusion, we have demonstrated that porcine genotype influences the expression and abundance of UCP2 and 3, an influence which may, in part, be due to the distinctive endocrine profiles associated with each genotype.

Abstract
The mitochondrial uncoupling protein 2 (UCP2) is expressed in spleen, lung, intestine, white adipose tissue, and immune cells. Bone marrow transplantation in mice was used to assess the contribution of immune cells to the expression of UCP2 in basal condition and during inflammation. Immune cells accounted for the total amount of UCP2 expression in the spleen, one-third of its expression in the lung, and did not participate in its expression in the intestine. LPS injection stimulated UCP2 expression in lung, spleen, and intestine in both immune and non-immune cells. Successive injections of LPS and dexamethasone or N-acetyl-cysteine prevented the induction of UCP2 in all three tissues, suggesting that oxygen free radical generation plays a role in UCP2 regulation. Finally, both previous studies and our data show that there is down-regulation of UCP2 in immune cells during their activation in the early stages of the LPS response followed by an up-regulation in UCP2 during the later stages to protect all cells against oxidative stress.

Abstract
The present study examined the ontogeny of mitochondrial protein abundance in adipose tissue and lungs over the first month of life in the sheep and the extent to which this may be altered by maternal undernutrition during the final month of gestation. The ontogeny of uncoupling protein (UCP), voltage-dependent anion channel (VDAC) and cytochrome c abundance were determined in adipose tissue and lungs sampled from near-term fetuses and young sheep aged 4 h, 1, 7 and 30 d. In adipose tissue, the abundance of UCP1, VDAC and cytochrome c all peaked at 1 d of age and then decreased by 30 d of age, at which stage the brown adipose tissue-specific UCP1 was no longer detectable but UCP2 was clearly abundant. For the lungs, however, UCP2 and VDAC abundance both peaked 7 d after birth and then decreased by 30 d of age. During postnatal development, therefore, a marked change in mitochondrial protein abundance occurs within both adipose tissue and lungs. Maternal nutrient restriction had no effect on lamb growth or tissue weights at 30 d of age but was associated with increased abundance of UCP2 and VDAC but not cytochrome c in both adipose tissue and lungs. These mitochondrial adaptations within both adipose tissue and the lungs of offspring born to previously nutrient-restricted mothers may compromise adipose tissue and lung function during periods of environmental stress.

Abstract
Uncoupling protein 1 (UCP1) is uniquely expressed in brown adipose tissue (BAT) and generates heat by uncoupling respiration from ATP synthesis. A defect in BAT thermogenesis has been described in different models of rodent obesity. In humans, the implication of BAT in energy expenditure is still under discussion. A BclI polymorphism associated with fat gain over time has been described in the upstream region of the human UCP1 (hUCP1) gene. In this study, a new polymorphic site linked to the BclI site is described which results in a C to A point mutation, 89 bp downstream of the BclI site, ie at position -3737 bp. This site is located in the recently analysed regulatory region of the hUCP1 gene. The mutation disrupts a consensus site for the binding of ATF/CREB transcription factor family and inhibits the factor binding in vitro. However, transient transfection of a rodent brown adipocyte cell line shows that the isoproterenol (ISO) stimulation of the hUCP1 gene transcription is not significantly affected by this mutation. However, we postulate that the C/A substitution, in human, may contribute to a minor defect in the regulation of hUCP1 transcription and that would explain fat gain over time.

Abstract
The metabolic utilization of substrates results in ATP synthesis and energy loss as heat. In tissues and cells the mitochondria reoxidize reduced coenzymes and phosphorylate ADP. A significant proportion of the energy is released through thermogenesis by mitochondria. This is due to a less than perfect coupling of cellular respiration to ATP synthesis. Previous studies of brown adipocytes, which are cells specialized in regulatory thermogenesis, have shown that heat production is due to the regulated activity and synthesis of a particular proton transporter in the inner membrane of brown adipocyte mitochondria--uncoupling protein (UCP) 1. UCP homologues have recently been identified. UCP2 is widely expressed in human tissues, whereas UCP3 is expressed predominantly in human skeletal muscles. These novel UCPs represent genes which are potentially important for regulation of metabolic pathways and energy expenditure in humans. Biochemical and genetic studies support a role for these novel UCPs in metabolic regulations in humans. However, several physiological studies question such a role. Importantly, UCP2 and UCP3 seem to be able to control the activity of mitochondria in response to oxidants.

Abstract
Uncoupling protein 2 (UCP2) belongs to the mitochondrial anion carrier family and partially uncouples respiration from ATP synthesis when expressed in recombinant yeast mitochondria. We generated a highly sensitive polyclonal antibody against human UCP2. Its reactivity toward mitochondrial proteins was compared between wild type and ucp2(-/-) mice, leading to non-ambiguous identification of UCP2. We detected UCP2 in spleen, lung, stomach, and white adipose tissue. No UCP2 was detected in heart, skeletal muscle, liver, and brown adipose tissue. The level of UCP2 in spleen mitochondria is less than 1% of the level of UCP1 in brown adipose tissue mitochondria. Starvation and LPS treatments increase UCP2 level up to 12 times in lung and stomach, which supports the hypothesis that UCP2 responds to oxidative stress situations. Stimulation of the UCP2 expression occurs without any change in UCP2 mRNA levels. This is explained by translational regulation of the UCP2 mRNA. We have shown that an upstream open reading frame located in exon two of the ucp2 gene strongly inhibits the expression of the protein. This further level of regulation of the ucp2 gene provides a mechanism by which expression can be strongly and rapidly induced under stress conditions.

Abstract
The gene Ucp2 is a member of a family of genes found in animals and plants, encoding a protein homologous to the brown fat uncoupling protein Ucp1 (refs 1-3). As Ucp2 is widely expressed in mammalian tissues, uncouples respiration and resides within a region of genetic linkage to obesity, a role in energy dissipation has been proposed. We demonstrate here, however, that mice lacking Ucp2 following targeted gene disruption are not obese and have a normal response to cold exposure or high-fat diet. Expression of Ucp2 is robust in spleen, lung and isolated macrophages, suggesting a role for Ucp2 in immunity or inflammatory responsiveness. We investigated the response to infection with Toxoplasma gondii in Ucp2-/- mice, and found that they are completely resistant to infection, in contrast with the lethality observed in wild-type littermates. Parasitic cysts and inflammation sites in brain were significantly reduced in Ucp2-/- mice (63% decrease, P<0.04). Macrophages from Ucp2-/- mice generated more reactive oxygen species than wild-type mice (80% increase, P<0.001) in response to T. gondii, and had a fivefold greater toxoplasmacidal activity in vitro compared with wild-type mice (P<0.001 ), which was absent in the presence of a quencher of reactive oxygen species (ROS). Our results indicate a role for Ucp2 in the limitation of ROS and macrophage-mediated immunity.

Abstract
Uncoupling protein 1 (UCP1) is uniquely expressed in brown adipocytes and generates heat production by uncoupling respiration from ATP synthesis. The activatory effects of norepinephrine and retinoic acid (RA) on rodent ucp1 gene transcription have been well characterized. These effects are mediated by a 211-base pair (bp) enhancer which is also sufficient to restrict expression to brown adipose tissue. The molecular mechanisms controlling the transcription of the human ucp1 gene are unknown. In order to study the transcriptional regulation of the human gene, we set up chloramphenicol acetyltransferase constructs containing the entire or deleted 5' regions upstream of the transcriptional start site of the gene. These constructs were transiently transfected in a mouse cell line. A 350-bp hormone response region showing a significant homology with the rat ucp1 enhancer and located between the BclI polymorphic site and an AatII site (bp -3820/-3470) was detected. This region was sufficient to mediate the stimulation by RA and by combined treatments (RA + isoproterenol (ISO), RA + thiazolidinedione (TZD), or RA + ISO + TZD). The highest stimulation, a 26-fold increase in basal activity, was obtained by RA + ISO + TZD treatment. In contrast to the rodent gene, under our conditions, the effect of ISO and/or TZD is dependent on RA stimulation. Analysis of 105 bp inside the 350-bp element by site-directed mutagenesis and gel retardation experiments demonstrated that a multipartite response element mediates the drug stimulation. This region binds RARs and RXRs nuclear factors, CREB/ATF factors, and also PPARgamma despite the absence of a consensus peroxisome-proliferator response element. The activation of the human ucp1 gene transcription by certain hormones or drugs, and the identification of the cis-elements involved, will help to identify new compounds activating fat oxidation and energy expenditure in humans.
