  • Aldehyde dehydrogenase 1a1 is dispensable for stem cell function in the mouse hematopoietic and nervous systems. 18971422

    High levels of aldehyde dehydrogenase (ALDH) activity have been proposed to be a common feature of stem cells. Adult hematopoietic, neural, and cancer stem cells have all been reported to have high ALDH activity, detected using Aldefluor, a fluorogenic substrate for ALDH. This activity has been attributed to Aldh1a1, an enzyme that is expressed at high levels in stem cells and that has been suggested to regulate stem cell function. Nonetheless, Aldh1a1 function in stem cells has never been tested genetically. We observed that Aldh1a1 was preferentially expressed in mouse hematopoietic stem cells (HSCs) and expression increased with age. Hematopoietic cells from Aldh1a1-deficient mice exhibited increased sensitivity to cyclophosphamide in a non-cell-autonomous manner, consistent with its role in cyclophosphamide metabolism in the liver. However, Aldh1a1 deficiency did not affect hematopoiesis, HSC function, or the capacity to reconstitute irradiated recipients in young or old adult mice. Aldh1a1 deficiency also did not affect Aldefluor staining of hematopoietic cells. Finally, Aldh1a1 deficiency did not affect the function of stem cells from the adult central or peripheral nervous systems. Aldh1a1 is not a critical regulator of adult stem cell function or Aldefluor staining in mice.

  • Inhibition of telomerase activity preferentially targets aldehyde dehydrogenase-positive cancer stem-like cells in lung cancer. 21827695

    Mortality rates for advanced lung cancer have not declined for decades, even with the implementation of novel chemotherapeutic regimens or the use of tyrosine kinase inhibitors. Cancer Stem Cells (CSCs) are thought to be responsible for resistance to chemo/radiotherapy. Therefore, targeting CSCs with novel compounds may be an effective approach to reduce lung tumor growth and metastasis. We have isolated and characterized CSCs from non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) cell lines and measured their telomerase activity, telomere length, and sensitivity to the novel telomerase inhibitor MST312.The aldehyde dehydrogenase (ALDH) positive lung cancer cell fraction is enriched in markers of stemness and endowed with stem cell properties. ALDH+ CSCs display longer telomeres than the non-CSC population. Interestingly, MST312 has a strong antiproliferative effect on lung CSCs and induces p21, p27 and apoptosis in the whole tumor population. MST312 acts through activation of the ATM/pH2AX DNA damage pathway (short-term effect) and through decrease in telomere length (long-term effect). Administration of this telomerase inhibitor (40 mg/kg) in the H460 xenograft model results in significant tumor shrinkage (70% reduction, compared to controls). Combination therapy consisting of irradiation (10Gy) plus administration of MST312 did not improve the therapeutic efficacy of the telomerase inhibitor alone. Treatment with MST312 reduces significantly the number of ALDH+ CSCs and their telomeric length in vivo.We conclude that antitelomeric therapy using MST312 mainly targets lung CSCs and may represent a novel approach for effective treatment of lung cancer.

  • Characterization of cardiac-resident progenitor cells expressing high aldehyde dehydrogenase activity. 23484127

    High aldehyde dehydrogenase (ALDH) activity has been associated with stem and progenitor cells in various tissues. Human cord blood and bone marrow ALDH-bright (ALDH(br)) cells have displayed angiogenic activity in preclinical studies and have been shown to be safe in clinical trials in patients with ischemic cardiovascular disease. The presence of ALDH(br) cells in the heart has not been evaluated so far. We have characterized ALDH(br) cells isolated from mouse hearts. One percent of nonmyocytic cells from neonatal and adult hearts were ALDH(br). ALDH(very-br) cells were more frequent in neonatal hearts than adult. ALDH(br) cells were more frequent in atria than ventricles. Expression of ALDH1A1 isozyme transcripts was highest in ALDH(very-br) cells, intermediate in ALDH(br) cells, and lowest in ALDH(dim) cells. ALDH1A2 expression was highest in ALDH(very-br) cells, intermediate in ALDH(dim) cells, and lowest in ALDH(br) cells. ALDH1A3 and ALDH2 expression was detectable in ALDH(very-br) and ALDH(br) cells, unlike ALDH(dim) cells, albeit at lower levels compared with ALDH1A1 and ALDH1A2. Freshly isolated ALDH(br) cells were enriched for cells expressing stem cell antigen-1, CD34, CD90, CD44, and CD106. ALDH(br) cells, unlike ALDH(dim) cells, could be grown in culture for more than 40 passages. They expressed sarcomeric α -actinin and could be differentiated along multiple mesenchymal lineages. However, the proportion of ALDH(br) cells declined with cell passage. In conclusion, the cardiac-derived ALDH(br) population is enriched for progenitor cells that exhibit mesenchymal progenitor-like characteristics and can be expanded in culture. The regenerative potential of cardiac-derived ALDH(br) cells remains to be evaluated.

  • Discovery of a novel class of covalent inhibitor for aldehyde dehydrogenases. 22021038

    Human aldehyde dehydrogenases (ALDHs) comprise a family of 17 homologous enzymes that metabolize different biogenic and exogenic aldehydes. To date, there are relatively few general ALDH inhibitors that can be used to probe the contribution of this class of enzymes to particular metabolic pathways. Here, we report the discovery of a general class of ALDH inhibitors with a common mechanism of action. The combined data from kinetic studies, mass spectrometric measurements, and crystallographic analyses demonstrate that these inhibitors undergo an enzyme-mediated ?-elimination reaction generating a vinyl ketone intermediate that covalently modifies the active site cysteine residue present in these enzymes. The studies described here can provide the basis for rational approach to design ALDH isoenzyme-specific inhibitors as research tools and perhaps as drugs, to address diseases such as cancer where increased ALDH activity is associated with a cellular phenotype.

  • Kinetic studies on the inhibition of isopeptidase T by ubiquitin aldehyde. 8841133

    Isopeptidase T (IPaseT) can hydrolyze isopeptide bonds of polyubiquitin (polyUb) chains, simple C-terminal derivatives of Ub, and certain peptides. We recently reported that IPaseT is regulated by ubiquitin (Ub); while submicromolar Ub activates, higher concentrations inhibit this enzyme [Stein et al. (1995) Biochemistry 34, 12616]. To explain these observations, we proposed a model for IPaseT involving two binding sites for Ub. According to the model, the two sites are adjacent to one another and are the extended active site that binds two Ub moieties of a polyUb chain. The "activation site" binds the Ub that donates Lys to the isopeptide bond. The "inhibition site" is adjacent and binds the Ub that donates the C-terminal Gly to the isopeptide bond. We now report that the interaction of IPaseT with the C-terminal aldehyde of Ub (Ub-H) is also modulated by Ub. In the absence of Ub, Ub-H inhibits IPaseT with a Ki of 2.3 nM, while at 0.6 microM Ub, where the "activation site" is occupied, Ki is less than 0.1 nM. At high Ub concentrations, where both the "activation" and "inhibition" sites are occupied, IPaseT cannot bind Ub-H. We also determined the kinetics of inhibition of IPaseT by Ub-H. In the absence of Ub, a two-step mechanism is followed. In the first step, Ub-H slowly combines with IPaseT to form a relatively weak complex (K1 = 260 nM) that slowly isomerizes to the final, stable complex that accumulates in the steady-state (k2 = 2 x 10(-3) s-1; k-2 = 0.02 x 10(-3) s-1). In contrast, Ub-activated IPaseT is inhibited by Ub-H through a three-step process. In the first step, Ub-H rapidly combines with IPaseT to form a complex (K1 = 10 nM) that slowly isomerizes to a second, more stable complex (k2 = 18 x 10(-3) s-1; k-2 = 1.5 x 10(-3) s-1). In the third step, the second complex converts to the final complex (k3 = 1.5 x 10(-3) s-1; k-3 < 0.2 x 10(-3) s-1). To unify the results of this study with our previous results on catalysis, we propose that binding of Ub either to catalytic transition states or to tetrahedral inhibition intermediates liberates more free energy than binding of Ub to the reactant state of IPaseT and that IPaseT can utilize this binding energy to stabilize both of these tetrahedral species. The overall effect is a Ub-induced increase in catalytic efficiency or inhibitory potency.
