www.nature.com/scientificreports OPEN Comprehensive polar metabolomics and lipidomics profling discriminates the transformed from the non‑transformed state in colon tissue and cell lines Caroline Rombouts1,2,3, Margot De Spiegeleer1, Lieven Van Meulebroek1, Lynn Vanhaecke1,4,5* & Winnok H. De Vos3,5* Colorectal cancer (CRC) is the fourth most lethal disease worldwide. Despite an urgent need for therapeutic advance, selective target identifcation in a preclinical phase is hampered by molecular and metabolic variations between cellular models. To foster optimal model selection from a translational perspective, we performed untargeted ultra‑high performance liquid chromatography coupled to high‑resolution mass spectrometry‑based polar metabolomics and lipidomics to non‑ transformed (CCD841‑CON and FHC) and transformed (HCT116, HT29, Caco2, SW480 and SW948) colon cell lines as well as tissue samples from ten colorectal cancer patients. This unveiled metabolic signatures discriminating the transformed from the non‑transformed state. Metabolites involved in glutaminolysis, tryptophan catabolism, pyrimidine, lipid and carnitine synthesis were elevated in transformed cells and cancerous tissue, whereas those involved in the glycerol‑3‑phosphate shuttle, urea cycle and redox reactions were lowered. The degree of glutaminolysis and lipid synthesis was specifc to the colon cancer cell line at hand. Thus, our study exposed pathways that are specifcally associated with the transformation state and revealed diferences between colon cancer cell lines that should be considered when targeting cancer‑associated pathways. Colorectal cancer (CRC) is the second and third most diagnosed cancer in females and males, respectively, and the fourth leading cause of cancer-related mortality worldwide. Te incidence rates are strongly variable throughout the world, whereby developed regions have more CRC patients than less developed countries. -

Abstract Mammalian cells require activated folates to generate nucleotides for growth and division. The most abundant circulating folate species is 5-methyl tetrahydrofolate (5-methyl- THF), which is used to synthesize methionine from homocysteine via the cobalamin-dependent enzyme methionine synthase (MTR). -

University Microfilms International 300 N
INFORMATION TO USERS This was produced from a copy of a document sent to us for microfilming. While the most advanced technological means to photograph and reproduce this document have been used, the quality is heavily dependent upon the quality of the material submitted. The following explanation of techniques is provided to help you understand markings or notations which may appear on this reproduction. 1. The sign or "target” for pages apparently lacking from the document photographed is "Missing Page(s)”. If it was possible to obtain the missing page(s) or section, they are spliced into the film along with adjacent pages. This may have necessitated cutting through an image and duplicating adjacent pages to assure you of complete continuity. 2. When an image on the film is obliterated with a round black mark it is an indication that the film inspector noticed either blurred copy because of movement during exposure, or duplicate copy. Unless we meant to delete copyrighted materials that should not have been filmed, you will find a good image of the page in the adjacent frame. If copyrighted materials were deleted you will find a target note listing the pages in the adjacent frame. 3. When a map, drawing or chart, etc., is part of the material being photo graphed the photographer has followed a definite method in “sectioning” the material. It is customary to begin filming at the upper left hand corner of a large sheet and to continue from left to right in equal sections with small overlaps. If necessary, sectioning is continued again—beginning below the first row and continuing on until complete. -

Keywords: KEAP1, NRF2, cysteine, CDO1, sulfite Summary NRF2 is emerging as a major regulator of cellular metabolism. However, most studies have been performed in cancer cells, where co-occurring mutations and tumor selective pressures complicate the influence of NRF2 on metabolism. Here we use genetically engineered, non-transformed primary cells to isolate the most immediate effects of NRF2 on cellular metabolism. We find that NRF2 promotes the accumulation of intracellular cysteine and engages the cysteine homeostatic control mechanism mediated by cysteine dioxygenase 1 (CDO1), which catalyzes the irreversible metabolism of cysteine to cysteine sulfinic acid (CSA). Notably, CDO1 is preferentially silenced by promoter methylation in non-small cell lung cancers (NSCLC) harboring mutations in KEAP1, the negative regulator of NRF2. -
RT² Profiler PCR Array (Rotor-Gene® Format) Human Amino Acid Metabolism I
RT² Profiler PCR Array (Rotor-Gene® Format) Human Amino Acid Metabolism I Cat. no. 330231 PAHS-129ZR For pathway expression analysis Format For use with the following real-time cyclers RT² Profiler PCR Array, Rotor-Gene Q, other Rotor-Gene cyclers Format R Description The Human Amino Acid Metabolism I RT² Profiler PCR Array profiles the expression of 84 key genes important in biosynthesis and degradation of functional amino acids. Of the 20 amino acids required for protein synthesis, six of them (arginine, cysteine, glutamine, leucine, proline, and tryptophan), collectively known as the functional amino acids, regulate key metabolic pathways involved in cellular growth, and development, as well as other important biological processes such as immunity and reproduction. For example, leucine activates mTOR signaling and increases protein synthesis, leading to lymphocyte proliferation. Therefore, a lack of leucine can compromise immune function. Metabolic pathways interrelated with the biosynthesis and degradation of these amino acids include vitamin and cofactor biosynthesis (such as SAM or S-Adenosyl Methionine) as well as neurotransmitter metabolism (such as glutamate). This array includes genes for mammalian functional amino acid metabolism as well as genes involved in methionine metabolism, important also for nutrient sensing and sulfur metabolism. Using realtime PCR, you can easily and reliably analyze the expression of a focused panel of genes involved in functional amino acid metabolism with this array. For further details, consult the RT² Profiler PCR Array Handbook. Shipping and storage RT² Profiler PCR Arrays in the Rotor-Gene format are shipped at ambient temperature, on dry ice, or blue ice packs depending on destination and accompanying products. -

Choline, the precursor of betaine, and the one-carbon metabolite sarcosine have been associated with increased prostate cancer risk. Within JANUS, a prospective cohort in Norway (n 5 317,000) with baseline serum samples, we conducted a nested case–control study among 3,000 prostate cancer cases and 3,000 controls. Using conditional logistic regression, odds ratios (ORs) and 95% confidence intervals (CIs) for prostate cancer risk were estimated according to quintiles of circulating betaine, dimethylglycine (DMG), sarcosine, glycine and serine. High sarcosine and glycine concentrations were associated with reduced prostate cancer risk of borderline significance (sarcosine: highest vs. -

Lloyd, and Hwei‐Jen Lee 4‐Hydroxylphenylpyruvate dioxygenase (HPPD) is a non‐haem iron(II)‐dependent oxygenase that catalyzes the conversion of 4‐hydroxylphenylpyruvate (HPP) to homogentisate (HG). In the active site, a strictly conserved 2‐His‐1‐Glu facial triad coordinates the iron ready for catalysis. Substitution of these residues resulted in about a 10‐fold decrease in the metal binding affinity, as measured by isothermal titration calorimetry, and a large reduction in enzyme catalytic efficiencies. -

Here we present a liquid chromatography (LC)–electrospray ionization tandem mass spectrometry (ESI-MS/MS) method for reliable measurement of 141 metabolites, including components of central carbon, amino acid, and nucleotide metabolism. The selected LC approach, hydrophilic interaction chromatography with an amino column, effectively separates highly water soluble metabolites that fail to retain using standard reversed-phase chromatography. MS/MS detection is achieved by scanning through numerous selected reaction monitoring events on a triple quadrupole instrument. When applied to extracts of Escherichia coli grown in [12C]- versus [13C]glucose, the method reveals appropriate 12C- and 13C-peaks for 79 different metabolites. © 2006 Elsevier B.V.
