  • Mitochondrial Metabolism in Carcinogenesis and Cancer Therapy

Warburg’s effect, defined as increased aerobic glycolysis at the expense of mitochondrial respiration in cancer cells, opened new avenues of research in the field of cancer. Later findings, however, have revealed that mitochondria remain functional and that they actively contribute to metabolic plasticity of cancer cells. Understand- ing the mechanisms by which mitochondrial metabolism controls tumor initiation and progression is necessary to better characterize the onset of carcinogenesis. These studies may ultimately lead to the design of novel anti-cancer strategies targeting mitochondrial functions. Abstract: Carcinogenesis is a multi-step process that refers to transformation of a normal cell into a tumoral neoplastic cell. The mechanisms that promote tumor initiation, promotion and progression are varied, complex and remain to be understood. Studies have highlighted the involvement of onco- genic mutations, genomic instability and epigenetic alterations as well as metabolic reprogramming, Citation: Moindjie, H.; in different processes of oncogenesis. However, the underlying mechanisms still have to be clarified. Rodrigues-Ferreira, S.; Nahmias, C. Mitochondria are central organelles at the crossroad of various energetic metabolisms.

E-mail: [email protected] Abstract The three-dimensional (3D) chromatin structure, together with DNA methylation and other epigenetic marks, profoundly affects gene expression and displays abnormal behaviors in cancer cells. We elucidated the chromatin architecture remodeling in carcinogenesis from the perspective of spatial interactions between CGI forest and prairie domains, which are two types of megabase-sized domains defined by different sequence features but show distinct epigenetic and transcriptional patterns. DNA sequence strongly affects chromosome spatial interaction, DNA methylation and gene expression. Globally, forests and prairies show enhanced spatial segregation in cancer cells and such structural changes are accordant with the alteration of CGI interactions and domain boundary insulation, which could affect vital cancer-related properties. As the cancer progresses, a gradual increase of the DNA methylation difference between the two types of DNA domains is also observed for many different types of cancers.

Wessels2,3,4 & Jos Jonkers1,2,3 1234567890():,; BRCA1-mutated breast cancer is primarily driven by DNA copy-number alterations (CNAs) containing large numbers of candidate driver genes. Validation of these candidates requires novel approaches for high-throughput in vivo perturbation of gene function. Here we develop genetically engineered mouse models (GEMMs) of BRCA1-deficient breast cancer that permit rapid introduction of putative drivers by either retargeting of GEMM-derived embryonic stem cells, lentivirus-mediated somatic overexpression or in situ CRISPR/Cas9- mediated gene disruption. We use these approaches to validate Myc, Met, Pten and Rb1 as bona fide drivers in BRCA1-associated mammary tumorigenesis. Iterative mouse modeling and comparative oncogenomics analysis show that MYC-overexpression strongly reshapes the CNA landscape of BRCA1-deficient mammary tumors and identify MCL1 as a collabor- ating driver in these tumors. Moreover, MCL1 inhibition potentiates the in vivo efficacy of PARP inhibition (PARPi), underscoring the therapeutic potential of this combination for treatment of BRCA1-mutated cancer patients with poor response to PARPi monotherapy.

Changes in mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA) may affect the occurrence of some chronic diseases and cancer. This process is complex and not entirely understood. The assignment to a particular mitochondrial haplogroup may be a factor that either contributes to cancer development or reduces its likelihood. Mutations in mtDNA occurring via an increase in reactive oxygen species may favour the occurrence of further changes both in mitochondrial and nuclear DNA. Mitochondrial DNA mutations in postmitotic cells are not inherited, but may play a role both in initiation and progression of cancer. One of the first discovered polymorphisms associated with cancer was in the gene NADH-ubiquinone oxidoreductase chain 3 (mt-ND3) and it was typical of haplogroup N. In prostate cancer, these mutations and polymorphisms Citation: Kozakiewicz, P.; involve a gene encoding subunit I of respiratory complex IV cytochrome c oxidase subunit 1 gene Grzybowska-Szatkowska, L.; (COI).

The programme was subsequently expanded to include evaluations of carcinogenic risks associated with exposures to complex mixtures, lifestyle factors and biological and physical agents, as well as those in specific occupations. The objective of the programme is to elaborate and publish in the form of monographs critical reviews of data on carcinogenicity for agents to which humans are known to be exposed and on specific exposure situations; to evaluate these data in terms of human risk with the help of international working groups of experts in carcinogenesis and related fields; and to indicate where additional research efforts are needed. The lists of IARC evaluations are regularly updated and are available on the Internet at http:// monographs.iarc.fr/. This programme has been supported since 1982 by Cooperative Agreement U01 CA33193 with the United States National Cancer Institute, Department of Health and Human Services.
