Publication Open Access RTP801 interacts with the tRNA ligase complex and dysregulates its RNA ligase activity in Alzheimer's disease(Oxford University Press, 2024-09-12) Campoy-Campos, Genís; Solana-Balaguer, Júlia; Guisado-Corcoll, Anna; Chicote-González, Almudena; García-Segura, Pol; Pérez-Sisqués, Leticia; Gabriel Torres, Adrián; Canal, Mercè; Molina-Porcel, Laura; Fernández Irigoyen, Joaquín; Santamaría Martínez, Enrique; Pouplana, Lluís Ribas de; Alberch, Jordi; Martí, Eulàlia; Giralt, Albert; Pérez-Navarro, Esther; Malagelada, Cristina; Ciencias de la Salud; Osasun ZientziakRTP801/REDD1 is a stress-responsive protein overexpressed in neurodegenerative diseases such as Alzheimer's disease (AD) that contributes to cognitive deficits and neuroinflammation. Here, we found that RTP801 interacts with HSPC117, DDX1 and CGI-99, three members of the tRNA ligase complex (tRNA-LC), which ligates the excised exons of intron-containing tRNAs and the mRNA exons of the transcription factor XBP1 during the unfolded protein response (UPR). We also found that RTP801 modulates the mRNA ligase activity of the complex in vitro since RTP801 knockdown promoted XBP1 splicing and the expression of its transcriptional target, SEC24D. Conversely, RTP801 overexpression inhibited the splicing of XBP1. Similarly, in human AD postmortem hippocampal samples, where RTP801 is upregulated, we found that XBP1 splicing was dramatically decreased. In the 5xFAD mouse model of AD, silencing RTP801 expression in hippocampal neurons promoted Xbp1 splicing and prevented the accumulation of intron-containing pre-tRNAs. Finally, the tRNA-enriched fraction obtained from 5xFAD mice promoted abnormal dendritic arborization in cultured hippocampal neurons, and RTP801 silencing in the source neurons prevented this phenotype. Altogether, these results show that elevated RTP801 impairs RNA processing in vitro and in vivo in the context of AD and suggest that RTP801 inhibition could be a promising therapeutic approach.Publication Open Access Signature-driven repurposing of Midostaurin for combination with MEK1/2 and KRASG12C inhibitors in lung cancer(Springer Nature, 2023) Macaya, Irati; Roman, Marta; Welch, Connor; Entrialgo-Cadierno, Rodrigo; Salmon, Marina; Santos, Alba; Feliu, Iker; Kovalski, Joanna; López Erdozain, Inés; Rodríguez-Remírez, María; Palomino Echeverría, Sara; Lonfgren, Shane M.; Ferrero, Macarena; Calabuig, Silvia; Ludwig, Iziar A.; Lara-Astiaso, David; Jantus-Lewintre, Eloisa; Guruceaga, Elizabeth; Narayanan, Shruthi; Ponz Sarvisé, Mariano; Pineda Lucena, Antonio; Lecanda, Fernando; Ruggero, Davide; Khatri, Purvesh; Santamaría Martínez, Enrique; Fernández Irigoyen, Joaquín; Ferrer, Irene; Paz-Ares, Luis; Drosten, Matthias; Barbacid, Mariano; Gil-Bazo, Ignacio; Vicent, Silvestre; Ciencias de la Salud; Osasun ZientziakDrug combinations are key to circumvent resistance mechanisms compromising response to single anti-cancer targeted therapies. The implementation of combinatorial approaches involving MEK1/2 or KRASG12C inhibitors in the context of KRAS-mutated lung cancers focuses fundamentally on targeting KRAS proximal activators or effectors. However, the antitumor effect is highly determined by compensatory mechanisms arising in defined cell types or tumor subgroups. A potential strategy to find drug combinations targeting a larger fraction of KRAS-mutated lung cancers may capitalize on the common, distal gene expression output elicited by oncogenic KRAS. By integrating a signature-driven drug repurposing approach with a pairwise pharmacological screen, here we show synergistic drug combinations consisting of multi-tyrosine kinase PKC inhibitors together with MEK1/2 or KRASG12C inhibitors. Such combinations elicit a cytotoxic response in both in vitro and in vivo models, which in part involves inhibition of the PKC inhibitor target AURKB. Proteome profiling links dysregulation of MYC expression to the effect of both PKC inhibitor-based drug combinations. Furthermore, MYC overexpression appears as a resistance mechanism to MEK1/2 and KRASG12C inhibitors. Our study provides a rational framework for selecting drugs entering combinatorial strategies and unveils MEK1/2- and KRASG12C-based therapies for lung cancer.Publication Open Access Amyotrophic lateral sclerosis is accompanied by protein derangements in the olfactory bulb-tract axis(MDPI, 2020) Lachén Montes, Mercedes; Mendizuri, Naroa; Ausín, Karina; Andrés Benito, Pol; Ferrer, Isidro; Fernández Irigoyen, Joaquín; Santamaría Martínez, Enrique; Ciencias de la Salud; Osasun Zientziak; Gobierno de Navarra / Nafarroako Gobernua, Ref. 0011-1411-2020-000028Amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS) is a fatal disease characterized by progressive muscle paralysis due to the degeneration of upper and lower motor neurons. Recent studies point out an involvement of the non-motor axis during disease progression. Despite smell impairment being considered a potential non-motor finding in ALS, the pathobiochemistry at the olfactory level remains unknown. Here, we applied an olfactory quantitative proteotyping approach to analyze the magnitude of the olfactory bulb (OB) proteostatic imbalance in ALS subjects (n = 12) with respect to controls (n = 8). Around 3% of the quantified OB proteome was differentially expressed, pinpointing aberrant protein expression involved in vesicle-mediated transport, macroautophagy, axon development and gliogenesis in ALS subjects. The overproduction of olfactory marker protein (OMP) points out an imbalance in the olfactory signal transduction in ALS. Accompanying the specific overexpression of glial fibrillary acidic protein (GFAP) and Bcl-xL in the olfactory tract (OT), a tangled disruption of signaling routes was evidenced across the OB–OT axis in ALS. In particular, the OB survival signaling dynamics clearly differ between ALS and frontotemporal lobar degeneration (FTLD), two faces of TDP-43 proteinopathy. To the best of our knowledge, this is the first report on high-throughput molecular characterization of the olfactory proteostasis in ALS.Publication Open Access Alteration in the cerebrospinal fluid lipidome in Parkinson’s disease: a post-mortem pilot study(MDPI, 2021) Fernández Irigoyen, Joaquín; Cartas Cejudo, Paz; Iruarrizaga-Lejarreta, Marta; Santamaría Martínez, Enrique; Ciencias de la Salud; Osasun ZientziakLipid metabolism is clearly associated to Parkinson’s disease (PD). Although lipid homeostasis has been widely studied in multiple animal and cellular models, as well as in blood derived from PD individuals, the cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) lipidomic profile in PD remains largely unexplored. In this study, we characterized the post-mortem CSF lipidomic imbalance between neurologically intact controls (n = 10) and PD subjects (n = 20). The combination of dual extraction with ultra-performance liquid chromatography-electrospray ionization quadrupole-time-of-flight mass spectrometry (UPLC-ESI-qToF-MS/MS) allowed for the monitoring of 257 lipid species across all samples. Complementary multivariate and univariate data analysis identified that glycerolipids (mono-, di-, and triacylglycerides), saturated and mono/polyunsaturated fatty acids, primary fatty amides, glycerophospholipids (phosphatidylcholines, phosphatidylethanolamines), sphingolipids (ceramides, sphingomyelins), N-acylethanolamines and sterol lipids (cholesteryl esters, steroids) were significantly increased in the CSF of PD compared to the control group. Interestingly, CSF lipid dyshomeostasis differed depending on neuropathological staging and disease duration. These results, despite the limitation of being obtained in a small population, suggest extensive CSF lipid remodeling in PD, shedding new light on the deployment of CSF lipidomics as a promising tool to identify potential lipid markers as well as discriminatory lipid species between PD and other atypical parkinsonisms.Publication Open Access Omics approaches in pancreatic adenocarcinoma(MDPI, 2019) González Borja, Iranzu; Viúdez, Antonio; Goñi Irigoyen, Saioa; Santamaría Martínez, Enrique; Carrasco García, Estefanía; Pérez Sanz, Jairo; Hernández García, Irene; Ciencias de la Salud; Osasun Zientziak; Gobierno de Navarra / Nafarroako Gobernua, Ref. 008-2018Pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma, which represents 80% of pancreatic cancers, is mainly diagnosed when treatment with curative intent is not possible. Consequently, the overall five-year survival rate is extremely dismal—around 5% to 7%. In addition, pancreatic cancer is expected to become the second leading cause of cancer-related death by 2030. Therefore, advances in screening, prevention and treatment are urgently needed. Fortunately, a wide range of approaches could help shed light in this area. Beyond the use of cytological or histological samples focusing in diagnosis, a plethora of new approaches are currently being used for a deeper characterization of pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma, including genetic, epigenetic, and/or proteo-transcriptomic techniques. Accordingly, the development of new analytical technologies using body fluids (blood, bile, urine, etc.) to analyze tumor derived molecules has become a priority in pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma due to the hard accessibility to tumor samples. These types of technologies will lead us to improve the outcome of pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma patients.Publication Open Access Brain IGF-I regulates LTP, spatial memory, and sexual dimorphic behavior(Life Science Alliance, 2023) Herrero-Labrador, Raquel; Fernández Irigoyen, Joaquín; Vecino, Rebeca; González-Arias, Canela; Ausín, Karina; Crespo, Inmaculada; Fernández Acosta, Francisco J.; Nieto-Estévez, Vanesa; Román, M. José; Perea, Gertrudis; Torres-Alemán, Ignacio; Santamaría Martínez, Enrique; Vicario, Carlos; Ciencias de la Salud; Osasun ZientziakInsulin-like growth factor-I (IGF-I) exerts multiple actions, yet the role of IGF-I from different sources is poorly understood. Here, we explored the functional and behavioral consequences of the conditional deletion of Igf-I in the nervous system (Igf-I¿/¿), and demonstrated that long-term potentiation was impaired in hippocampal slices. Moreover, Igf-I¿/¿ mice showed spatial memory deficits in the Morris water maze, and the significant sex-dependent differences displayed by Igf-ICtrl/Ctrl mice disappeared in Igf-I¿/¿ mice in the open field and rota-rod tests. Brain Igf-I deletion disorganized the granule cell layer of the dentate gyrus (DG), and it modified the relative expressions of GAD and VGLUT1, which are preferentially localized to inhibitory and excitatory presynaptic terminals. Furthermore, Igf-I deletion altered protein modules involved in receptor trafficking, synaptic proteins, and proteins that functionally interact with estrogen and androgen metabolism. Our findings indicate that brain IGF-I is crucial for long-term potentiation, and that it is involved in the regulation of spatial memory and sexual dimorphic behaviors, possibly by maintaining the granule cell layer structure and the stability of synaptic-related protein modules.Publication Open Access Deciphering CHFR role in pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma(Frontiers Media, 2021) González Borja, Iranzu; Alors-Pérez, Emilia; Amat Villegas, Irene; Alonso, Laura; Viyuela-García, Cristina; Goñi Irigoyen, Saioa; Reyes, José C.; Ceballos-Chávez, María; Hernández García, Irene; Sánchez-Frías, Marina E.; Santamaría Martínez, Enrique; Razquin, Socorro; Arjona Sánchez, Álvaro; Arrazubi, Virginia; Pérez Sanz, Jairo; Vera García, Ruth; Fernández Irigoyen, Joaquín; Castaño, Justo P.; Viúdez, Antonio; Ciencias de la Salud; Osasun Zientziak; Gobierno de Navarra / Nafarroako GobernuaCheckpoint with forkhead-associated and ring finger domains (CHFR) has been proposed as a predictive and prognosis biomarker for different tumor types, but its role in pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC) remains unknown. The aim of this study was two-pronged: to review the role of CHFR in PDAC and evaluating CHFR as a potential predictive biomarker in this disease. For this purpose, we first explored the CHFR messenger (m)RNA expression and promoter methylation through the TCGA database. Secondly, the CHFR expression and promoter methylation were prospectively evaluated in a cohort of patients diagnosed with borderline (n = 19) or resectable (n = 16) PDAC by immunohistochemistry (IHC), methylation specific-PCR (MSP), and pyrosequencing. The results from the TCGA database showed significant differences in terms of progression-free survival (PFS) and overall survival (OS) based on the CHFR mRNA expression, which was likely independent from the promoter methylation. Importantly, our results showed that in primarily resected patients and also the entire cohort, a higher CHFR expression as indicated by the higher IHC staining intensity might identify patients with longer disease-free survival (DFS) and OS, respectively. Similarly, in the same cohorts, patients with lower methylation levels by pyrosequencing showed significantly longer OS than patients without this pattern. Both, the CHFR expression intensity and its promoter methylation were established as independent prognostic factors for PFS and OS in the entire cohort. In contrast, no significant differences were found between different methylation patterns for CHFR and the response to taxane-based neoadjuvant treatment. These results suggest the potential role of the higher expression of CHFR and the methylation pattern of its promoter as potential prognostic biomarkers in PDAC, thus warranting further comprehensive studies to extend and confirm our preliminary findings.Publication Open Access Metschnikowia pulcherrima as an efficient biocontrol agent of Botrytis cinerea infection in apples: unraveling protection mechanisms through yeast proteomics(Elsevier, 2023) Fernández San Millán, Alicia; Fernández Irigoyen, Joaquín; Santamaría Martínez, Enrique; Larraya Reta, Luis María; Farrán Blanch, Inmaculada; Veramendi Charola, Jon; Ciencias de la Salud; Osasun Zientziak; Institute for Multidisciplinary Research in Applied Biology - IMAB; Universidad Pública de Navarra / Nafarroako Unibertsitate PublikoaThe results obtained in this study show that the Mp-30 strain of Metschnikowia pulcherrima is able to completely prevent Botrytis cinerea infection in apples, which is a major postharvest disease of fruits throughout the world. We have observed that although Mp-30 is able to rapidly colonize wounds, sequestrate iron and secrete antifungal compounds, other unknown mechanisms that occur in the early phase of the yeast-fungal interaction must be implicated in the biocontrol response. The main objective of this study was to identify the pathways involved in the mechanism of action of Mp-30 against B. cinerea in apples. Therefore, differentially accumulated yeast proteins in the presence/absence of B. cinerea on wounded apples were studied to elucidate Mp-30 biocontrol mechanisms and regulation at the protein level. A comparative proteomic analysis showed that 114 yeast proteins were increased and 61 were decreased. The Mp-30 antagonistic response mainly showed the increase of (1) gene expression and protein translation related proteins, (2) trafficking and vesicle-mediated transport related proteins, (3) pyruvate metabolism and mitochondrial proteins related to energy and amino acid production, (4) fatty acid synthesis, and (5) cell envelope related proteins. On the other hand, redox homeostasis, and amino acid and carbon metabolism were downregulated. Since there is no yeast growth enhancement associated with the presence of B. cinerea, such regulation mechanisms may be related to the reprogramming of metabolism, synthesis of new compounds and reorganization of yeast cell structure. Indeed, the results show that several pathways cooperate in restructuring the plasma membrane and cell wall composition, highlighting their major role in the antagonistic interactions for apple protection against gray mold proliferation. These results are of great interest since they provide a clear insight into the yeast mechanisms involved in B. cinerea inactivation during the first hours of contact in the wounded fruit. They shed light on the unknown yeast molecular biocontrol mechanisms.Publication Open Access Neuroanatomical quantitative proteomics reveals common pathogenic biological routes between amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS) and frontotemporal dementia (FTD)(MDPI, 2019) Iridoy Zulet, Marina; Zubiri, Irene; Zelaya Huerta, María Victoria; Martínez, Leire; Ausín, Karina; Lachén Montes, Mercedes; Santamaría Martínez, Enrique; Fernández Irigoyen, Joaquín; Jericó Pascual, Ivonne; Ciencias de la Salud; Osasun Zientziak; Universidad Pública de Navarra / Nafarroako Unibertsitate Publikoa(1) Background: Amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS) and frontotemporal dementia (FTD) are neurodegenerative disorders with an overlap in clinical presentation and neuropathology. Common and differential mechanisms leading to protein expression changes and neurodegeneration in ALS and FTD were studied trough a deep neuroproteome mapping of the spinal cord. (2) Methods: A liquid chromatography tandem mass spectrometry (LC-MS/MS) analysis of the spinal cord from ALS-TAR DNA-binding protein 43 (TDP-43) subjects, ubiquitin-positive frontotemporal lobar degeneration (FTLD-U) subjects and controls without neurodegenerative disease was performed. (3) Results: 281 differentially expressed proteins were detected among ALS versus controls, while 52 proteins were dysregulated among FTLD-U versus controls. Thirty-three differential proteins were shared between both syndromes. The resulting data was subjected to network-driven proteomics analysis, revealing mitochondrial dysfunction and metabolic impairment, both for ALS and FTLD-U that could be validated through the confirmation of expression levels changes of the Prohibitin (PHB) complex. (4) Conclusions: ALS-TDP-43 and FTLD-U share molecular and functional alterations, although part of the proteostatic impairment is region-and disease-specific. We have confirmed the involvement of specific proteins previously associated with ALS (Galectin 2 (LGALS3), Transthyretin (TTR), Protein S100-A6 (S100A6), and Protein S100-A11 (S100A11)) and have shown the involvement of proteins not previously described in the ALS context (Methanethiol oxidase (SELENBP1), Peptidyl-prolyl cis-trans isomerase NIMA-interacting 1 (PIN-1), Calcyclin-binding protein (CACYBP) and Rho-associated protein kinase 2 (ROCK2)). © 2018 by the authors.

We have found that Pichia fermentans Pf-31 and Pichia terricola Pt-36 are two promising yeast strains that are able to efficiently control B. cinerea infection in apples. This effect is most pronounced when the yeasts are applied as live cells, although dead cells or culture filtrates also show some degree of control. Both strains arrest spore germination, inhibit mycelial growth, strongly attach to hyphae and promote their own proliferation in the fruit when B. cinerea is present, probably due to preferential colonization of apple wounds. Indeed, this metabolism enhancement was corroborated by a proteomic analysis, which revealed the differentially accumulated yeast proteins that contribute towards this antagonistic behavior. Besides the boost in proteins involved in energetic metabolism, other changes in proteins related to cell envelope composition are implicated in the biocontrol abilities of both strains, and this might be to facilitate hyphal adhesion or biofilm formation. The results of this study are of great value because they promote a deep understanding of the proteins that undergo changes during yeast antagonistic interactions, but also because they provide new insights into the proteomes of non-Saccharomyces yeasts, which have not been previously described.
