Interplay between H1N1 influenza a virus infection, extracellular and intracellular respiratory tract pH, and host responses in a mouse model. PLoS One 2021; 16:e0251473. [PMID: 33979408 PMCID: PMC8115840 DOI: 10.1371/journal.pone.0251473] [Citation(s) in RCA: 2] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.7] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/08/2021] [Accepted: 04/27/2021] [Indexed: 01/01/2023] Open
Abstract
During influenza A virus (IAV) entry, the hemagglutinin (HA) protein is triggered by endosomal low pH to undergo irreversible structural changes that mediate membrane fusion. HA proteins from different isolates vary in the pH at which they become activated in endosomes or become irreversible inactivated if exposed to extracellular acid. Little is known about extracellular pH in the upper respiratory tracts of mammals, how pH may shift during IAV infection, and its impact on replication of viruses that vary in HA activation pH. Here, we inoculated DBA/2J mice intranasally with A/TN/1-560/2009 (H1N1) (activation pH 5.5) or a mutant containing the destabilizing mutation HA1-Y17H (pH 6.0). We measured the kinetics of extracellular pH during infection using an optical pH-sensitive microsensor probe placed in the naris, nasal sinus, soft palate, and trachea. We also measured intracellular pH of single-cell suspensions of live, primary lung epithelial cells with various wavelength pH-sensitive dyes localized to cell membranes, cytosol, endosomes, secretory vesicles, microtubules, and lysosomes. Infection with either virus decreased extracellular pH and increased intracellular pH. Peak host immune responses were observed at 2 days post infection (DPI) and peak pH changes at 5 DPI. Extracellular and intracellular pH returned to baseline by 7 DPI in mice infected with HA1-Y17H and was restored later in wildtype-infected. Overall, IAV infection altered respiratory tract pH, which in turn modulated replication efficiency. This suggests a virus-host pH feedback loop that may select for IAV strains containing HA proteins of optimal pH stability, which may be approximately pH 5.5 in mice but may differ in other species.

Anaplerotic Role of Glucose in the Oxidation of Endogenous Fatty Acids during Dengue Virus Infection. mSphere 2018; 3:mSphere00458-17. [PMID: 29404419 PMCID: PMC5793041 DOI: 10.1128/msphere.00458-17] [Citation(s) in RCA: 12] [Impact Index Per Article: 2.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 10/02/2017] [Accepted: 12/20/2017] [Indexed: 12/21/2022] Open
Abstract
Dengue virus infection is a major cause of human arbovirosis, for which clinical and experimental evidence supports the idea that liver dysfunction and lipid metabolism disorders are characteristics of severe disease. Analyzing mitochondrial bioenergetics, here we show that infection of hepatic cells with dengue virus favors the cellular capacity of metabolizing glucose, impairing the normal metabolic flexibility that allows the oxidative machinery to switch among the main energetic substrates. However, instead of being used as an energy source, glucose performs an anaplerotic role in the oxidation of endogenous fatty acids, which become the main energetic substrate during infection. Taken together, the results shed light on metabolic mechanisms that may explain the profound alterations in lipid metabolism for severe dengue patients, contributing to the understanding of dengue physiopathology. Dengue virus (DENV) is among the most important human arboviruses and is clinically and experimentally associated with lipid metabolism disorders. Using high-resolution respirometry, we analyzed the metabolic switches induced by DENV in a human hepatic cell line. This experimental approach allowed us to determine the contribution of fatty acids, glutamine, glucose, and pyruvate to mitochondrial bioenergetics, shedding light on the mechanisms involved in DENV-induced metabolic alterations. We found that while infection strongly inhibits glutamine oxidation, it increases the cellular capacity of metabolizing glucose; remarkably, though, this substrate, instead being used as an energy source, performs an anaplerotic role in the oxidation of endogenous lipids. Fatty acids become the main energetic substrate in infected cell, and through the pharmacological modulation of β-oxidation we demonstrated that this pathway is essential for virus replication. Interestingly, infected cells were much less susceptible to the Crabtree effect, i.e., the glucose-mediated inhibition of mitochondrial oxygen consumption, suggesting that infection favors cellular respiration by increasing ADP availability.

Cernaj IE. Simultaneous dual targeting of Par-4 and G6PD: a promising new approach in cancer therapy? Quintessence of a literature review on survival requirements of tumor cells. Cancer Cell Int 2016; 16:87.

Abstract
The aim of this hypothesis is to propose a new approach in targeted therapy of cancer: The simultaneous, dual targeting of two single molecules, Par-4 and G6PD, rather than inhibition of full-length signaling pathways. RATIONALE Targeted inhibition of especially two survival signaling pathways (PI3K/AKT/mTOR and MAPK/ERK) is frequently tried, however, a major breakthrough has not yet been reported. Inhibition of complete pathways naturally goes along with a variety of dose-limiting side effects thus contributing to poor efficacy of the administered drugs. This essay offers a synopsis of relevant studies to support the above mentioned idea-targeting of two single molecules which either are crucial for tumor growth and cancer-cell-survival: on one side, Par-4-activation selectively triggers apoptosis of tumor cells thus reversing their characteristic feature-immortality. On the other side inhibition of G6PD breaks the energy supply of tumor cells, weakens their defence against oxidative stress and thereby enhances the sensitivity of tumor cells to oxidative agents (e.g. chemotherapy). Advantage of the proposed dual Par-4/G6PD-therapy is good tolerability and-especially when administered along with conventional therapy-less frequent emergence of resistance.

Abstract
Over the last 100 years, many studies have been performed to determine the biochemical and histopathological phenomena that mark the origin of neoplasms. At the end of the last century, the leading paradigm, which is currently well rooted, considered the origin of neoplasms to be a set of genetic and/or epigenetic mutations, stochastic and independent in a single cell, or rather, a stochastic monoclonal pattern. However, in the last 20 years, two important areas of research have underlined numerous limitations and incongruities of this pattern, the hypothesis of the so-called cancer stem cell theory and a revaluation of several alterations in metabolic networks that are typical of the neoplastic cell, the so-called Warburg effect. Even if this specific “metabolic sign” has been known for more than 85 years, only in the last few years has it been given more attention; therefore, the so-called Warburg hypothesis has been used in multiple and independent surveys. Based on an accurate analysis of a series of considerations and of biophysical thermodynamic events in the literature, we will demonstrate a homogeneous pattern of the cancer stem cell theory, of the Warburg hypothesis and of the stochastic monoclonal pattern; this pattern could contribute considerably as the first basis of the development of a new uniform theory on the origin of neoplasms. Thus, a new possible epistemological paradigm is represented; this paradigm considers the Warburg effect as a specific “metabolic sign” reflecting the stem origin of the neoplastic cell, where, in this specific metabolic order, an essential reason for the genetic instability that is intrinsic to the neoplastic cell is defined.

Abstract
Oncogenic viruses represent a significant public health burden in light of the multitude of malignancies that result from chronic or spontaneous viral infection and transformation. Although many of the molecular signaling pathways that underlie virus-mediated cellular transformation are known, the impact of these viruses on metabolic signaling and phenotype within proliferating tumor cells is less well understood. Whether the interaction of oncogenic viruses with metabolic signaling pathways involves enhanced glucose uptake and glycolysis (both hallmark features of transformed cells) or dysregulation of molecular pathways that regulate oxidative stress, viruses are adept at facilitating tumor expansion. Through their effects on cell proliferation pathways, such as the PI3K and MAPK pathways, the cell cycle regulatory proteins p53 and ATM, and the cell stress response proteins HIF-1α and AMPK, viruses exert control over critical metabolic signaling cascades. Additionally, oncogenic viruses modulate the tumor metabolomic profile through direct and indirect interactions with glucose transporters, such as GLUT1, and specific glycolytic enzymes, including pyruvate kinase, glucose 6-phosphate dehydrogenase, and hexokinase. Through these pathways, oncogenic viruses alter the phenotypic characteristics and energy-use methods of transformed cells; therefore, it may be possible to develop novel antiglycolytic therapies to target these dysregulated pathways in virus-derived malignancies.

Abstract
Regulation of glucose degradation in both yeasts and tumor cells is very similar in many respects. In both cases it leads to excretion of intermediary metabolites (e.g., ethanol, lactate) in those cell types where uptake of glucose is unrestricted (Saccharomyces cerevisiae, Bowes melanoma cells). The similarities between glucose metabolism observed in yeast and tumor cells is explained by the fact that cell transformation of animal cells leads to inadequate expression of (proto-)oncogenes, which force the cell to enter the cell cycle. These events are accompanied by alterations at the signal transduction level, a marked increase of glucose transporter synthesis, enhancement of glycolytic key enzyme activities, and slightly reduced respiration of the tumor cell. In relation to homologous glucose degradation found in yeast and tumor cells there exist strong similarities on the level of cell division cycle genes, signal transduction and regulation of glycolytic key enzymes. It has been demonstrated that ethanol and lactate excretion in yeast and tumor cells, respectively, result from an overflow reaction at the point of pyruvate that is due to a carbon flux exceeding the capacity of oxidative breakdown. Therefore, the respiratory capacity of a cell determines the amount of glycolytic breakdown products if ample glucose is available. This restricted flux is also referred to as the respiratory bottleneck. The expression "catabolite repression", which is often used in textbooks to explain ethanol and acid excretion, should be abandoned, unless specific mechanisms can be demonstrated. Furthermore, it was shown that maximum respiration and growth rates are only obtained under optimum culture conditions, where the carbon source is limiting.

Abstract
For identification and targeting of tumor-associated marker proteins, the proteome of clear cell type of renal cell carcinoma (RCC) and normal kidney tissues was analyzed by 2-DE. Ketohexokinase (also called fructokinase), which catalyzes the phosphorylation of fructose to fructose 1-phosphate, was identified by MALDI-TOF MS and found to be expressed at low rates in the renal tumor tissues. We found a decreased amount of ketohexokinase mRNA in RCC compared to that observed in the normal kidney tissues by Northern blot. The activity of ketohexokinase in 20 clear cell RCC specimens and the 20 corresponding normal kidneys was investigated, and its activity was shown to be approximately 1.4-fold lower in the RCC specimens than in the normal kidney. Ketohexokinase activity in tumor stage pT3 RCC was 1.5-fold lower than in pT1 RCC. The level of ketohexokinase activity in histological grade 3 RCC was 1.8-fold lower than that in grade 1 cancer. In addition, using in situ hybridization, it was revealed that ketohexokinase in the normal kidney tissue was confined to the proximal tubular epithelial cells, while the expression of ketohexokinase in RCC tissues was extremely low. Our research results show that the expression of human ketohexokinase was diminished in clear cell RCC.

Abstract
Renal cell carcinoma (RCC) is one of the most malignant tumors in urology, and due to its insidious onset patients frequently have advanced disease at the time of clinical presentation. Thus, early detection is crucial in management of RCC. To identify tumor specific proteins of RCC, we employed proteomic analysis. We prepared proteins from conventional RCC and the corresponding normal kidney tissues from seven patients with conventional RCC. The expression of proteins was determined by silver stain after two-dimensional polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis (2D-PAGE). The overall protein expression patterns in the RCC and the normal kidney tissues were quite similar except some areas. Of 66 differentially expressed protein spots (p<0.05 by Student t-test), 8 different proteins from 11 spots were identified by MALDI-TOF-MS. The expression of the following proteins was repressed (p<0.05); aminoacylase-1, enoyl-CoA hydratase, aldehyde reductase, tropomyosin alpha-4 chain, agmatinase and ketohexokinase. Two proteins, vimentin and alpha-1 antitrypsin precursor, were dominantly expressed in RCC (p<0.05).

Abstract
Although it is well established that cellular transformation with tumor virus leads to changes on glucose metabolism, the effects of cell infection by non-transforming virus are far to be completely elucidated. In this study, we report the first evidence that cultured Vero cells infected with the alphavirus Mayaro show several alterations on glucose metabolism. Infected cells presented a two fold increase on glucose consumption, accompanied by an increment in lactate production. This increase in glycolytic flux was also demonstrated by a significant increase on the activity of 6-phosphofructo 1-kinase, one of the regulatory enzymes of glycolysis. Analysis of the kinetic parameters revealed that the regulation of 6-phosphofructo 1-kinase is altered in infected cells, presenting an increase in Vmax along with a decrease in Km for fructose-6-phosphate. Another fact contributing to an increase in enzyme activity was the decrease in ATP levels observed in infected cells. Additionally, the levels of fructose 2,6-bisphosphate, a potent activator of this enzyme, was significantly reduced in infected cells. These observations suggest that the increase in PFK activity may be a compensatory cellular response to the viral-induced metabolic alterations that could lead to an impairment of the glycolytic flux and energy production.

Abstract
The aim of this work was to show in serum-free medium a convergent effect of physiological factors and extracellular matrix proteins on the differentiation process of enterocytes by taking as a model the HT29-D4 clone that has the feature of differentiating when subcultured in fetal bovine serum glucose-free medium. We show that triiodothyronine (T3) as well as insulin promotes limited cell growth and differentiation, whereas fibronectin or bovine serum albumin (BSA) induces cell growth and a low level of differentiation. However, insulin, T3, fibronectin, and BSA together with epidermal growth factor and transferrin promoted satisfactory growth and enterocyte morphology with epithelial electrophysiological properties in HT29-D4 cells. With these factors adequate protein targeting was achieved since cells apically expressed the carcinoembryonic antigen, and basolaterally transferrin and insulin receptors, beta 1 and alpha v beta 6 integrins, talin, vinculin, and focal adhesion kinase (FAK). Talin, vinculin, FAK, and alpha v beta 6 integrin, the fibronectin receptor, were clustered in focal contacts, which agrees with a possible role of fibronectin in final cell growth, the latter process mediating the final phase of differentiation. This level of differentiation can be maintained for a long time. Thus HT29-D4 cells appear to be a suitable model to study the implication of integrins in the differentiation process of human enterocytes.

Abstract
6-Phosphofructo-2-kinase (PFK-2) catalyses the synthesis of fructose 2,6-bisphosphate (Fru-2,6-P2), a potent stimulator of glycolysis. In chick-embryo fibroblasts, PFK-2 activity and Fru-2,6-P2 concentration increase upon transformation by Rous sarcoma virus. We show here that the increase in PFK-2 activity required more than 2 h after shifting fibroblasts infected with a thermosensitive mutant of Rous sarcoma virus from the restrictive to the permissive temperature. Pretreatment of the cells with actinomycin D prevented this increase in PFK-2 activity, suggesting a requirement for RNA synthesis. However, the increase in PFK-2 activity did not correspond to an increase in immunoprecipitable PFK-2. Moreover, the thermostability of PFK-2 and the affinity of this enzyme for its substrate fructose 6-phosphate were increased upon transformation by Rous sarcoma virus. Staurosporine, an inhibitor of protein kinase C, prevented the increase in PFK-2 activity brought about by the shift to the permissive temperature. This, together with a comparison of the effects of phorbol esters on PFK-2 activity, suggests that pp60v-src stimulates, via protein kinase C, the transcription of a gene whose products is a distinct PFK-2 isoenzyme or a protein that activates PFK-2.

Abstract
The hexokinase-mitochondrial acceptor theory provides a model of insulin action which unifies the metabolic effects of this hormone and suggests that these result from insulin's stimulatory effect on mitochondrial ATP synthesis. There are similarities between these changes in cells exposed to insulin and in mitochondria of transformed cell lines and cancer cells, where an increased binding of hexokinase to mitochondria is observed. This phenomenon may play a key role in the high rates of glycolysis sustained by cancer cells under aerobic conditions. Structural and functional evidence support the hypothesis that certain growth factors and oncogenes act through stimulation of oxidative phosphorylation via promoting HK binding to mitochondria.

Abstract
Lactate accumulation in the medium and glucose utilization decreased during the induction of in vitro differentiation of mouse erythroleukemia (MEL) and human myeloid leukemia (HL-60) cells. The decrease in lactate accumulation occurred as early as 24 h after inducer treatment was initiated and occurred prior to the decrease in glucose utilization. The decrease in lactate accumulation was greater than that predicted by the decrease in glucose utilization, i.e., the ratio of glucose used glycolytically, as measured by lactate accumulation, to glucose used in other pathways ('glycolytic ratio') markedly decreased during differentiation in these cell lines. Differentiation correlated with the abrogation of the high levels of lactate accumulation first described by Warburg as characteristic of some transformed and neoplastic cells. Studies on both parental and differentiation-resistant variant MEL cell lines indicated that the changes in lactate accumulation were not dependent on the changes in glucose utilization and could be dissociated from them. Moreover, the changes in lactate accumulation only occurred in cells able to undergo differentiation-induced terminal cell division. This regulatable expression of lactate accumulation in MEL and HL-60 cells in vitro may make them useful model systems for the elucidation of the molecular mechanisms controlling lactate formation in malignant cells.

Abstract
Fructose 2,6-bisphosphate (F-2,6-P2) stimulated glycolysis in cell-free extracts of both normal and ras-transfected rat-1 fibroblasts. The extract of the transformed cell glycolyzed more rapidly in both the absence and the presence of F-2,6-P2 than the extract of the parent fibroblast. Addition of mitochondrial ATPase (F1) or inorganic phosphate (Pi) further stimulated lactate production in both cell lines. F-2,6-P2 stimulated the 6-phosphofructo-1-kinase (PFK-1) activity in extracts of normal and transfected cells. The activity in extracts of transformed cells tested with a fructose 6-phosphate regenerating system was considerably higher than in the extract of normal cells. Stimulation of PFK-1 activity by cAMP of both cell lines was not as pronounced as that by F-2,6-P2. In the absence of F-2,6-P2 the PFK-1 activity was strongly inhibited in the transformed cell by ATP concentrations higher than 1 mM, whereas in the normal cell only a marginal inhibition was noted even at 2 or 3 mM ATP. F-2,6-P2 reversed the inhibition of PFK-1 by ATP. Nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide (NAD) at 100 microM (in the presence of 2 mM ATP and 1 microM F-2,6-P2) stimulated PFK-1 activity only in the transformed cell, whereas nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide phosphate (NADP) inhibited PFK-1 activity (in the presence or absence of 1 microM F-2,6-P2) in extracts of both cell lines. No previous observations of stimulation or inhibition by NAD or NADP on PFK-1 activity appear to have been reported. A threefold increase in the intracellular concentration of F-2,6-P2 was observed after transfection of rat-1 fibroblast by the ras oncogene. We conclude from these data that the PFK-1 activity of ras-transfected rat-1 fibroblasts shows a greater response to certain stimulating and inhibitory regulating factors than that of the parent cell.

Abstract
Human peripheral lymphocytes activated with concanavalin A and phorbol myristate ester exhibit an increase in glycolysis on a time-course similar to that for DNA synthesis. Elevated glycolysis is accompanied by increased specific activities of the glycolytic enzymes. Increased enzyme activities are accounted for by the appearance of specific isoenzyme forms (muscle forms) normally expressed in rapidly growing tumor cells or in growth-stimulated cells. In the present study we analyzed the expression of the glycolytic isoenzymes during cell cycle progression of activated human lymphocytes using two-parameter (DNA and protein) flow cytometry. Time-course studies and analysis of subpopulations prepared by elutriation centrifugation showed that the inducible isoenzymes are expressed at low levels or not at all in G0 cells. They are expressed first during the G0 to G1 transition or in early G1. However, expression increases throughout G1, reaching a maximum in S-phase. Thus, induction of glycolytic isoenzymes provides an excellent marker of T-cell activation and progression toward DNA synthesis.

Abstract
The effect of rhein, 4,5-dihydroxyanthraquinone-2-carboxylic acid, on oxygen consumption and the rate of aerobic and anaerobic lactate production by Ehrlich ascites tumor cells has been investigated. The rate of oxygen uptake decreases with the increase of rhein concentration. Rhein also inhibits aerobic and anaerobic glycolysis. The rate of aerobic lactate production decreases with the drug concentration and the maximal effect was observed at 0.100 mM. Anaerobic lactate production is also inhibited and the maximum effect is reached at 0.220 mM. The possibility that the lactate production decrease was secondary to an effect on mitochondrial ATPase was excluded on the basis of the data with DNP and oligomycin. Rhein reduces the intracellular level of lactate, pyruvate and glucose-6-phosphate. Glucose utilization and 2-deoxy-D-glucose uptake are decreased to the same extent as the inhibition of aerobic lactate production, whereas glucose phosphorylation is unaffected. It is, therefore, concluded that the inhibition of glycolysis of Ehrlich ascites tumor cells by rhein is caused by an impairment of glucose uptake.

Abstract
The complex glycerol kinase deficiency (GKD) syndrome is an X-linked recessive genetic disorder. The syndrome often includes a myopathy that is similar histologically to Duchenne muscular dystrophy (DMD). The glycerol kinase (GK) locus is in the Xp21 region in the midportion of the short arm of the X chromosome and is in close proximity to the DMD locus. We have investigated GK activity and subcellular distribution of muscle GK in DMD patients and in a patient with the complex GKD syndrome presenting with myopathy. We found no abnormality of muscle GK specific activity or subcellular distribution in DMD. In the patient with the complex GKD syndrome the specific activity and kinetics of muscle GK were normal, but the subcellular distribution of muscle GK was altered. Liver GK had less than 10% of normal activity and showed markedly altered kinetics. These findings indicate that there is no abnormality of muscle GK activity in DMD muscle. Furthermore, the normal GK activity in an individual with the complex GKD syndrome suggests that muscle and liver GK are genetically distinct. These findings support the concept that the complex GKD syndrome results from small deletions that affect closely linked but separate loci for DMD, GK and adrenal hypoplasia.

Abstract
The effect of lonidamine (LND), 1-(2,4-dichlorobenzyl)-1H-indazol-3 carboxylic acid, on the utilization of carbon from 14C-labeled glucose by cell cultures of the permanent strain LI derived from a human glioblastoma multiforme (astrocytoma) has been investigated. The results may be summarized as follows. Aerobic glycolysis is the main energy-yielding process as shown by the fact that the greatest part of glucose carbon atoms is incorporated into lactate. Nevertheless, the amount of glucose converted accounts for only 63% of the lactate produced, indicating the presence of an elevated endogenous aerobic glycolysis. The amount of glucose carbon atoms incorporated into CO2, lipids, nucleic acid, and supporting structures is low. LND decreased the incorporation of 14C activity in all the above mentioned isolated compounds because of its ability to inhibit glucose phosphorylation. Consequently, there is a lower concentration of glucose-6-phosphate which, in turn, affects the rate of formation of several metabolites in glycolytic and pentose phosphate pathways. Experiments with [1-14C]-2-deoxy-D-glucose further substantiate the idea of glucose phosphorylation as a main target of LND and strongly suggest the presence of a mitochondrially bound hexokinase. The higher inhibition of glucose phosphorylation in exponentially growing cells indicates a further shift of the enzyme toward mitochondria-bound form and confirms the importance of the energy status of the cell in eliciting the response to LND. The reduced capacity of LND-treated cells to synthetize ATP and glucose-6-phosphate reflects the decreased synthesis of proteins and nucleic acids, which affects cell growth and duplication.

Abstract
The outer mitochondrial membrane contains a pore structure which is composed of a 30,000 Da protein, porin. The pore has an internal diameter of 2 nm and exhibits a molecular-sieving exclusion limit between 3000 and 6000 Da. These pores, therefore, provide the exit/entrance port for metabolites moving between mitochondria and the cytosol. Hexokinase binds to porin on the outer surface of mitochondria. The location of hexokinase has evoked a number of theories in which bound hexokinase is given a central role in regulating glycolysis, and, perhaps, the metabolic communication between oxidative and glycolytic metabolism. This is of particular importance in rapidly growing tumor cells in which the aerobic production of lactate and hexokinase activity are highly induced. In the present paper, we summarize the suggested roles of the outer membrane and bound hexokinase in regulation glycolysis of tumor cells. Experiments attempting to elucidate the role of hexokinase binding in the regulation of tumor cell metabolism are presented.

Abstract
The metabolism of [14C]pyruvate, [14C]glucose, [14C]glutamine and [14C]alanine was compared between normal rat tracheal epithelial cells and carcinogen-altered cells derived from dimethylbenz(a)anthracene-exposed tracheal implants. Normal primary cultures (NPC) of tracheal cells are distinguished by their need for pyruvate-supplemented medium for growth and survival. The altered cells were selected out by their survival in the unsupplemented medium. Compared to the selected primary cultures (SPC), the NPC showed a three- to four-fold higher incorporation of radioactivity from [2-14C]pyruvate in all the macromolecular fractions, as well as in all the metabolites isolated from the acid soluble fraction and from lactic acid isolated from the medium. [U-14C]glucose was also incorporated at higher levels into lactic acid isolated from the acid soluble fraction and the medium of NPC. These data indicate a higher rate of glycolysis in the normal tracheal cells. This was supported by the findings of a two-fold greater glucose consumption and two-fold higher production of lactic acid isolated from the NPC medium. Lactate dehydrogenase activity was also two-fold higher in NPC. Thus, despite the apparently higher level of pyruvate production in the NPC, exogenous pyruvate is necessary to satisfy the metabolic needs of NPC. The utilization of [U-14C]glutamine or [U-14C]alanine was not markedly different between NPC and SPC. Furthermore, radioactivity from both of the amino acids was recovered in lactic acid in the medium, indicating that both cell types can derive pyruvic acid from either glutamine or alanine. SPC apparently do not use these routes to supply higher levels of pyruvic acid for survival in culture. The oxidation of none of the radioactive metabolites into CO2 was distinctly different between NPC and SPC except for the 1.7-fold higher utilization of [1-14C]glucose along the oxidative arm of the pentose cycle in the normal cells.

Abstract
The active ingredient in the tumor-promoting croton oil, 12-O-tetradecanoyl-phorbol-13-acetate (TPA), was shown to increase the activity of mouse skin epidermal glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase (+84%), hexokinase (+100%), phosphofructokinase (+158%), and pyruvate kinase (+101%). This increase in activity of these key enzymes of glucose metabolism occurred 2-8 h after TPA application and was due to a net increase in the enzyme content. This increase in the activity of the glycolytic enzymes, as well as the reported TPA-induced increase in the synthesis of RNA and DNA and cell proliferation, suggest that activation of the glycolytic pathway may be involved in the carcinogenic effects of tumor promoters.

Abstract
The effect of lonidamine on the aerobic glycolysis and on the ultrastructure of normal and phytohemagglutinin-stimulated human peripheral blood lymphocytes has been investigated. In quiescent lymphocytes lonidamine does not affect aerobic lactate production and does not induce ultrastructural modifications. On the contrary, lymphocytes stimulated with phytohemagglutinin become susceptible to lonidamine inhibition. The rate of lactate production is decreased by 50% and mitochondria appear swollen with rarified matrix and disrupted cristae. The different effect of lonidamine can be ascribed both to the biochemical modifications induced by phytohemagglutinin and to the mechanism of lonidamine itself. Phytohemagglutinin increases the activity of hexokinase and phosphofructokinase and determines a shift of cytoplasmatic hexokinase toward the mitochondria-bound form which is responsible for the increased lactate production. This interpretation is supported by the finding that lonidamine, which specifically inhibits mitochondria-bound hexokinase only when mitochondria are in a condensed state, decreases lactate production to a value similar to that found in unstimulated cells. The inability of lonidamine to affect the aerobic glycolysis of quiescent lymphocytes can be interpreted along the same line. On this basis it is suggested that the inhibition of mitochondria-bound hexokinase might be ascribed to marked changes in membrane conformation that affect the activity of membrane-associated enzymes, rather than to a direct effect of the enzyme itself.

Abstract
When HeLa cells are exposed to brief heat shock at 45 degrees C there is a reduction in the cellular level of Na+K+ATPase. Return of the cells to the normal growth temperature of 37 degrees C leads to a partial restoration of enzyme activity. The pattern of this recovery of activity suggests that it may be associated with the induction of heat shock proteins. Indeed other means of heat shock protein induction such as continuous heat treatment at 42 degrees C, or treatment of cells at 37 degrees C with sodium arsenite, leads to elevated levels of Na+K+ATPase activity and alterations in the kinetic properties of the enzyme. Continuous hyperthermia at 42 degrees C led to increased lactate production which could be blocked with ouabain suggesting that effects on Na+K+ATPase activity could partly influence glycolysis. A number of other human and hamster cells also showed increased lactate production at 42 degrees C and also an inhibition of lactate production by ouabain. Whilst incubation of HeLa cells with cyanide had little effect on glycolysis at 37 degrees C elevation of the temperature to 42 degrees C (or 45 degrees C), in the presence of cyanide, impaired glycolysis. The possible role in this phenomenon, of an unusual oxygen-sensitive isoenzyme of lactate dehydrogenase, expressed in human cancers, is discussed.

Abstract
Twelve individuals have been described with glycerol kinase deficiency. Five of these individuals are adults who were noted incidentally to have pseudohypertriglyceridemia. Six of these individuals are children who manifest a clinical complex which includes adrenal hypoplasia/insufficiency and developmental delay. Another child has intermittent coma, a normal IQ, and no evidence of adrenal insufficiency. Genetic and biochemical hypotheses are proposed to explain this clinical variability. Glycerol kinase binds specifically and reversibly to the porin, the pore-forming protein of the outer mitochondrial membrane, which also binds hexokinase. Mutations affecting any component of this kinase-binding system will alter the properties of this system. Glycerol kinase deficiency, as an inborn error of this compartmented metabolic system, offers an investigational opportunity for studying this microenvironment.

Abstract
Spermine and spermidine enhanced the binding of hexokinase isoenzyme type II to mitochondria, both of which were prepared from Ehrlich-Lettre hyperdiploid ascites tumor cells, at much lower concentrations than Mg2+. Chymotrypsin-treated hexokinase II could not bind to the mitochondrial membrane in the presence of either spermine or Mg2+, indicating that the effect of spermine is not a nonspecific action, since the treatment of chymotrypsin cleaves only the region essential for the binding without any significant effect of the catalytic activity. Both spermine and Mg2+ antagonized the glucose 6-phosphate-induced release of mitochondria-bound hexokinase, and promoted the binding of the solubilized hexokinase II even in the presence of glucose 6-phosphate. However, inhibition of the activity of soluble hexokinase by glucose 6-phosphate was not reversed by spermine and Mg2+. Hexokinase II rebound to mitochondria with spermine and Mg2+ produced glucose 6-phosphate using ATP generated inside the mitochondria, and no difference was observed between the spermine- and Mg2+-rebound systems. Significance of the binding of hexokinase to mitochondria, especially with polyamines, is discussed with reference to high glycolytic rate in tumor cells.

Abstract
Transport rates of the nonphosphorylated D-glucose analogs 6-deoxy-D-glucose and D-xylose were measured in quiescent and serum-stimulated cultures of mouse 3T3 cells, in SV40-transformed 3T3 cells (SV101), and in a density revertant cell line derived from SV101 (FI-SV101). Initial rates of both entry and exit of 6-deoxy-D-glucose and D-xylose were more than threefold higher in serum-stimulated 3T3 and in SV101 cells than they were in quiescent 3T3 cells, but transport rates were not higher in the transformed cells (SV101) than they were in serum-stimulated 3T3. Confluent cultures of FI-SV101 showed lower rates of transport than serum-stimulated FI-SV101, but not as low as quiescent 3T3 cells enter the quiescent G0 state, but emphasize that SV40-transformed 3T3 cells do not show higher activity of the D-glucose carrier than do actively growing 3T3 cells. Thus, enhanced glucose transport appears not to be a specific consequence of transformation, but a reflection of the active growth state of the cell.

Abstract
A reduce uptake and retention of the mitochondria-specific membrane potential probe rhodamine 123 by feline sarcoma virus (FeSV)-transformed mink fibroblasts (64F3) has been detected. The decreased accumulation of rhodamine 123 by 64F3 mitochondria is not due to abnormal plasma membrane dye permeability, since after microinjection of the dye these cells are still unable to retain the dye at levels comparable to the untransformed parental cells, CCL 64. Nigericin, an ionophore that mediates an electrically neutral exchange of protons for potassium ions resulting the elimination of the pH gradient across the mitochondrial membrane and a compensatory increase in mitochondrial membrane potential with continued respiration, increases both the dye uptake and the retention time in transformed 64F3 cells. These results suggest that mitochondria in FeSV-transformed mink cells may have an abnormally low mitochondrial membrane potential accompanied by a relatively high pH gradient. Since anioic metabolites such as pyruvate and glutamate are accumulated by mitochondria in proportion to the delta pH across the mitochondrial membrane, the abnormal mitochondria described here may contribute to the abnormal metabolic state of FeSV-transformed cells.

Abstract
Effects of transformation by Rous sarcoma virus on sugar uptake and activity and the subcellular distribution of hexokinase isozymes in chick embryo fibroblasts were examined. Transformation caused a several-fold increase in the maximum velocity for uptake of 2-deoxyglucose without a significant change in Km. Cytochalasin B (CB), was used to differentiate between the effects of transformation on facilitated diffusion and the nonsaturable (CB-insensitive) mode. Transformation was found to stimulate 2-deoxyglucose transport by both mechanisms, but the increase in transport by the CB-insensitive mode was greater. Transformation enhances the activity of hexokinase, the enhancement being confined to the particulate fraction of the enzyme. Heat-inactivation and electrophoretic mobility studies showed that although hexokinase Type I is the major form in both normal and transformed fibroblasts, there is a significant increase in the proportion of the Type II isozyme in the transformed cells.

Abstract
Detailed time courses of uptake of labeled 3-O-methyl-D-glucose and 2-deoxy-D-glycose by untreated and ATP-depleted Novikoff rat hepatoma cells were determined as function of concentration (0.2-10 mM) by a rapid mixing/sampling technique which allows uptake measurements in time intervals as short as 1.5 seconds. Intracellular accumulation of 3-O-methylglucose in untreated and ATP-depleted cells and of deoxyglucose in ATP-depleted cells to equilibrium followed pseudo-first order kinetics and initial velocities were computed from overall time courses of substrate accumulation. Initial velocity was a Michaelis-Menten function of exogenous substrate concentration. The estimated kinetic constants for zero-trans transport of 3-O-methylglucose were about the same for untreated and ATP-depleted cells (Kztm = 1.73 +/- 0.24 mM; Vztmax = 28.8 +/- 3.6 pmoles/microliter cell H2O. sec) and were similar to those for deoxyglucose transport in ATP-depleted cells (Kztm = 0.65 +/- 0.1 mM; Vztmax = 19.6 +/- 1.6 pmoles/microliter cell H2O. sec). Similar kinetic parameters were obtained for the transport of D-glucose and D-galactose in ATP-depleted cells. The transport of 3-O-methylglucose and deoxyglucose were inhibited by each other in a simple competitive manner with apparent Ki's similar to their transport Km's. In untreated cells, in which deoxyglucose was phosphorylated, intracellular steady-state levels of free deoxyglucose accumulated within 10 to 20 seconds of incubation regardless of its concentration in the medium. Thereafter, the rate of deoxyglucose incorporation into total cell material reflected the rate of phosphorylation rather than the transport rate. The rate of deoxyglucose transport exceeded the initial rate of its phosphorylation by 20-40 %. The intracellular steady-state-levels observed during the first 2 minutes of incubation decreased from about 40% of equilibrium level at 0.2 mM deoxyglucose to about 8% at 10 mM. Computer fits of a kinetic equation describing transport and phosphorylation as independent processes operating in tandem to these data are consistent with the observed kinetic constants for hexose transport and hexokinase activity with deoxyglucose as substrate. Upon longer incubation (2-10 minutes) the rate of deoxyglucose uptake by the phosphorylating cells decreased progressively, concomitant with a decrease in intracellular ATP and an increase in intracellular deoxyglucose to equilibrium levels. It is demonstrated that the rate of deoxyglucose uptake, measured at two or more minutes, seriously underestimates the hexose transport rate and yields misleading conclusions regarding the extent and type of inhibition by transport inhibitors, such as persantin or cytochalasin B. Persantin inhibited hexose transport in a simple non-competitive manner (Ki = 20 muM) indicating that the drug affects the function of the hexose carrier.

Abstract
Exogenous ATP has been shown earlier to activate a permeability change in transformed 3T3 cultures leading to massive efflux of the acid-soluble pools. This leads to reduction of the basal rate of glycolysis to a very low level so that glycolysis becomes almost totally dependent on the addition to the medium of glucose, inorganic phosphate and ADP in order to restore the rate to that of untreated cells. No such depression of glycolysis is observed in untreated transformed cells or in ATP-treated normal 3T3 cells. In such permeabilized cultures, phosphorylated intermediates such as glucose-6-phosphate and fructose-1,6-diphosphate can serve as effective substrates for lactic acid formation. ATP treatment of cultured cells also allows molecules as big as NADP to enter the cells and participate in the pentose phosphate shunt pathway. This ability to temporarily and differentially render transformed cells permeable allows a review of several aspects of cellular metabolism and biosynthesis in the intact cell where the cellular organization is maintained. Furthermore, it deserves serious consideration as a means to achieve differential cytotoxicity of transformed cells by chemotherapeutic agents which, on their own, are indiscriminate in their action.

Abstract
Rat liver epithelial cells in culture (WIRL-3C) have the enzymes that synthesize serine from 3-phophoglyceric acid. Both phosphoglyceric acid dehydrogenase (PGAD) and serine-phosphate (serine-P) forming activities fluctuate with time after subculture and are higher in growing than confluent cells. This activity pattern was not common for other dehydrogenases in WIRL-3C cells, nor was it common for PGAD activity in other cultured cells. At time of subculture, cells are removed from spent medium, treated with trypsin, and fed fresh medium. None of these parameters causes the rise in activity; in contrast, reduction in cell density and the accompanying stimulation of growth do. PGAD activity decreases when growth is slowed either as the cells progress to the end of the culture cycle, when cells are treated with dexamethasone-phosphate (Dx-P) or dibutyryl cyclic AMP(cAMP) and theophylline or when the serum concentration of the medium is reduced to 0.2%. Under these conditions, decreased PGAD activity is paralleled by a decline in growth and DNA accumulation. PGAD activity in WIRL-3C cells is regulated in a manner closely resembling what has been observed previously in rat liver from the whole animal. The possible use of this system in studying regulation of gene expression in mammalian cells is discussed.

Abstract
Much of the literature on the uptake of glucose by untransformed and transformed animal cells is based on experiments carried out with 2-deoxy-D-glucose (2-DOG). Results obtained with this analog can be ambiguous, since 2-DOG can be phosphorylated by hexokinases of animal cells. An intracellular trapping mechanism is thus provided. Therefore, the total flux of 2-DOG into the cell is a resultant of both transport and hexokinase action, and the measurement of total 2-DOG incorporation is a valid measurement of transport only if 2-DOG is phosphorylated as rapidly as it enters the cell. Evidence is presented here that this is not necessarily the case, significant levels of free intracellular 2-DOG approaching external concentrations were found in untransformed and transformed mouse 3T3 cells even at early times during uptake. Differences in total intracellular 2-DOG between untransformed and transformed cells were accounted for entirely by 2-deoxyglucose phosphate. Thus, it appears the apparent increase of 2-DOG uptake accompanying transformation in these cell lines is not due to an effect on the transport process, but on enhanced phosphorylation, which is a reflection of an alteration in the regulation of glycolysis. The ambiguity introduced by phosphorylation can be oviated by the use of an analog that cannot be phosphorylated, such as 3-O-methyl-D-glucose. The rate of transport and efflux of this sugar was not found to be different in untransformed versus transformed 3T3 cells. Moreover, deficiencies of this analog as a substrate for the glucose transport system are pointed out.
