Abstract
Enhanced glycolysis under normoxic conditions is known as aerobic glycolysis or the Warburg effect and is a hallmark of many tumors. Viral infection may also induce aerobic glycolysis as it is required for replication and survival. Tumor viruses inducing aerobic glycolysis and lactate production during latent infection suggest a potential role of virus-induced glycolysis in tumorigenesis. Virus or virus-encoded proteins regulate glucose uptake and lactate export, increase the activity of glycolytic enzymes, and modulate glucose metabolic signals. Accumulating evidence suggests that virus-induced glycolysis may facilitate cell growth, transformation, migration, and invasion, but its significance in tumorigenesis remains unclear. We summarize the effects of oncogenic viruses on the metabolic shift to aerobic glycolysis and discuss the possible association of this metabolic reprogramming with tumor development and progression.

Abstract
Viruses play an important role in cancerogenesis. It is estimated that approximately 20% of all cancers are linked to infectious agents. The viral genes modulate the physiological machinery of infected cells that lead to cell transformation and development of cancer. One of the important adoptive responses by the cancer cells is their metabolic change to cope up with continuous requirement of cell survival and proliferation. In this review we will focus on how DNA viruses alter the glucose metabolism of transformed cells. Tumor DNA viruses enhance “aerobic” glycolysis upon virus-induced cell transformation, supporting rapid cell proliferation and showing the Warburg effect. Moreover, viral proteins enhance glucose uptake and controls tumor microenvironment, promoting metastasizing of the tumor cells.

The role of Merkel cell polyomavirus and other human polyomaviruses in emerging hallmarks of cancer. Viruses 2015; 7:1871-901.

Abstract
Polyomaviruses are non-enveloped, dsDNA viruses that are common in mammals, including humans. All polyomaviruses encode the large T-antigen and small t-antigen proteins that share conserved functional domains, comprising binding motifs for the tumor suppressors pRb and p53, and for protein phosphatase 2A, respectively. At present, 13 different human polyomaviruses are known, and for some of them their large T-antigen and small t-antigen have been shown to possess oncogenic properties in cell culture and animal models, while similar functions are assumed for the large T- and small t-antigen of other human polyomaviruses. However, so far the Merkel cell polyomavirus seems to be the only human polyomavirus associated with cancer. The large T- and small t-antigen exert their tumorigenic effects through classical hallmarks of cancer: inhibiting tumor suppressors, activating tumor promoters, preventing apoptosis, inducing angiogenesis and stimulating metastasis. This review elaborates on the putative roles of human polyomaviruses in some of the emerging hallmarks of cancer. The reciprocal interactions between human polyomaviruses and the immune system response are discussed, a plausible role of polyomavirus-encoded and polyomavirus-induced microRNA in cancer is described, and the effect of polyomaviruses on energy homeostasis and exosomes is explored. Therapeutic strategies against these emerging hallmarks of cancer are also suggested.

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
Recent studies have reported the detection of the human neurotropic virus, JCV, in a significant population of brain tumors, including medulloblastomas. Accordingly, expression of the JCV early protein, T-antigen, which has transforming activity in cell culture and in transgenic mice, results in the development of a broad range of tumors of neural crest and glial origin. Evidently, the association of T-antigen with a range of tumor-suppressor proteins, including p53 and pRb, and signaling molecules, such as β-catenin and IRS-1, plays a role in the oncogenic function of JCV T-antigen. We demonstrate that T-antigen expression is suppressed by glucose deprivation in medulloblastoma cells and in glioblastoma xenografts that both endogenously express T-antigen. Mechanistic studies indicate that glucose deprivation-mediated suppression of T-antigen is partly influenced by 5′-activated AMP kinase (AMPK), an important sensor of the AMP/ATP ratio in cells. In addition, glucose deprivation-induced cell cycle arrest in the G1 phase is blocked with AMPK inhibition, which also prevents T-antigen downregulation. Furthermore, T-antigen prevents G1 arrest and sustains cells in the G2 phase during glucose deprivation. On a functional level, T-antigen downregulation is partially dependent on reactive oxygen species (ROS) production during glucose deprivation, and T-antigen prevents ROS induction, loss of ATP production, and cytotoxicity induced by glucose deprivation. Additionally, we have found that T-antigen is downregulated by the glycolytic inhibitor, 2-deoxy-D-glucose (2-DG), and the pentose phosphate inhibitors, 6-aminonicotinamide and oxythiamine, and that T-antigen modulates expression of the glycolytic enzyme, hexokinase 2 (HK2), and the pentose phosphate enzyme, transaldolase-1 (TALDO1), indicating a potential link between T-antigen and metabolic regulation. These studies point to the possible involvement of JCV T-antigen in medulloblastoma proliferation and the metabolic phenotype and may enhance our understanding of the role of viral proteins in glycolytic tumor metabolism, thus providing useful targets for the treatment of virus-induced tumors.

Abstract
The hypoxic tumor microenvironment is associated with malignant progression and poor treatment response. The glucose transporter Glut-1 is a prognostic factor and putative hypoxia marker. So far, studies of Glut-1 in cancer have utilized conventional immunohistochemical analysis in a series of individual biopsy or surgical specimens. Tissue microarrays, however, provide a rapid, inexpensive means of profiling biomarker expression. To evaluate hypoxia markers, tissue cores must show the architectural features of hypoxia; i.e. viable tissue surrounding necrotic regions. Glut-1 may be a useful biomarker to validate tissue microarrays for use in studies of hypoxia-regulated genes in cancer. In this study, we carried out immunohistochemical detection of Glut-1 protein in many tumor and normal tissue types in a range of tissue microarrays. Glut-1 was frequently found in peri-necrotic regions, occurring in 9/34 lymphomas, 6/12 melanomas, and 5/16 glioblastomas; and in 43/54 lung, 22/84 colon, and 23/60 ovarian tumors. Expression was rare in breast (6/40) and prostate (1/57) tumors, and in normal tissue, was restricted to spleen, tongue, and CNS endothelium. In conclusion, tissue microarrays enable the observation of Glut-1 expression in peri-necrotic regions, which may be linked to hypoxia, and reflect previous studies showing differential Glut-1 expression across tumor types and non-malignant tissue.

Abstract
Experimental evidence suggesting a type of glucose uptake regulation prevailing in resting and differentiated cells was surveyed. This type of regulation is characterized by transport-limited glucose metabolism and depends on segregation of glucose transporters on microvilli of differentiated or resting cells. Earlier studies on glucose transport regulation and a recently presented general concept of influx regulation for ions and metabolic substrates via microvillar structures provide the basic framework for this theory. According to this concept, glucose uptake via transporters on microvilli is regulated by changes in the structural organization of the microfilament bundle, which is acting as a diffusion barrier between the microvillar tip compartment and the cytoplasm. Both microvilli formation and the switch of glucose metabolism from "metabolic regulation" to "transport limitation" occur during differentiation. The formation of microvillar cell surfaces creates the essential preconditions to establish the characteristic functions of specialized tissue cells including the coordination between glycolysis and oxidative phosphorylation, regulation of cellular functions by external signals, and Ca(2+) signaling. The proposed concept integrates various aspects of glucose uptake regulation into a ubiquitous cellular mechanism involved in regulation of transmembrane ion and substrate fluxes.

Abstract
To determine the influence of tumor cell proliferation and changes in the genetic program in malignant cells on the fluorodeoxyglucose (FDG) uptake we performed PET studies in several animal tumors: spontaneous mammary fibroadenoma, chemically-induced mammary adenocarcinoma and Dunning prostate adenocarcinoma. The expression of the glucose transporter (GLUT1) and of hexokinase (Hk) was measured using 32P-labeled cDNA probes and densitometry. Furthermore the proliferative activity was determined with one-dimensional flow cytometry. The FDG uptake and the proliferation parameters were not correlated. The normalized amounts of GLUT and Hk mRNA were lower in spontaneous fibroadenomas and prostate tumors than in chemically induced mammary. The FDG uptake was correlated to GLUT1 expression with r = 0.83 and to Hk expression with r = 0.77. Multiple regression analysis revealed a relation of FDG uptake to GLUT1 and HK with r = 0.87. Our results show that the FDG uptake in our study was related not to differences in proliferation, but rather to differences in the transcription of glycolysis associated genes.

Abstract
High-level expression of the low-Km glucose transporter isoform GLUT-1 is characteristic of many cultured tumor and oncogene-transformed cells. In this study, we tested whether induction of GLUT-1 occurs in tumors in vivo. Normal mouse beta islet cells express the high-Km (approximately 20 mM) glucose transporter isoform GLUT-2 but not the low-Km (1 to 3 mM) GLUT-1. In contrast, a beta cell line derived from an insulinoma arising in a transgenic mouse harboring an insulin-promoted simian virus 40 T-antigen oncogene (beta TC3) expressed very low levels of GLUT-2 but high levels of GLUT-1. GLUT-1 protein was not detectable on the plasma membrane of islets or tumors of the transgenic mice but was induced in high amounts when the tumor-derived beta TC3 cells were grown in tissue culture. GLUT-1 expression in secondary tumors formed after injection of beta TC3 cells into mice was reduced. Thus, high-level expression of GLUT-1 in these tumor cells is characteristic of culture conditions and is not induced by the oncogenic transformation; indeed, overnight culture of normal pancreatic islets causes induction of GLUT-1. We also investigated the relationship between expression of the different glucose transporter isoforms by islet and tumor cells and induction of insulin secretion by glucose. Prehyperplastic transgenic islet cells that expressed normal levels of GLUT-2 and no detectable GLUT-1 exhibited an increased sensitivity to glucose, as evidenced by maximal insulin secretion at lower glucose concentrations, compared with that exhibited by normal islets. Further, hyperplastic islets and primary and secondary tumors expressed low levels of GLUT-2 and no detectable GLUT-1 on the plasma membrane; these cells exhibited high basal insulin secretion and responded poorly to an increase in extracellular glucose. Thus, abnormal glucose-induced secretion of insulin in prehyperplastic islets in mice was independent of changes in GLUT-2 expression and did not require induction of GLUT-1 expression.

Abstract
The regulation of cellular growth and proliferation is perhaps the most investigated and elusive problem in cell biology and seems to be possible to solve from almost any angle of study chosen. Among the non-systemic factors that have been discussed are genetic damage, genomic control, regulation by stimulatory and inhibitory peptide factors such as EGF, chalones, and fibronectin, protein kinase activation with tyrosine phosphorylation, adenylylcyclase and cAMP, cGMP, membrane perturbations and specifically in tumours the failure of the Pasteur effect in control of glycolysis, excessive membrane ATPase activity, and excessive hydrolytic and proteolytic activities at the cell surface. This article focuses on the central role of fluxes within the plasma membrane and re-examines the possibility that changes of flux of metabolites, ions, and reducing equivalents may be the common denominator regulating cellular proliferation.

Abstract
A human whole blood chemiluminescence (CL) assay was established using zymosan as cell activator. Aroclor 1254 was found to inhibit this CL response in a direct linear relation to its concentration, (50% inhibitory dose, (ID50) equal to 5 x 10(-4)M) in diluted blood samples of 10 normal human subjects. In comparison the ID50 of other inhibitors was 1.3 x 10(-3)M for ethylenediamine tetraacetic acid, 3.3 x 10(-3)M for ascorbic acid, 4 x 10(-3)M for reduced glutathione, 1.2 x 10(-1)M for ethanol, 2.5 x 10(-1)M for methanol and 3.7 x 10(-1)M for dimethyl sulfoxide. Using 12-o-tetradecanoyl-phorbol-13-acetate (TPA) as cell activator the CL response was likewise inhibited by Aroclor 1254 with an ID50 of 4.5 x 10(-4)M. However, it was found that Aroclor 1254 alone has a stimulatory CL effect on otherwise unactivated cells. To compare the mechanisms involved in the CL elicited by the three stimulants zymosan, TPA and Aroclor 1254, the CL signal was measured in the presence of cytochalasin B. Cytochalasin B inhibited zymosan-induced CL, had a smaller inhibitory effect on TPA-induced CL but it could augment the CL response initiated by Aroclor 1254. This pattern of responses implicates Aroclor 1254 in the activation of eicosanoid metabolism as it matches the differential responses reported for arachidonic acid.

Abstract
Addition of fibroblast growth factor to quiescent cultures of Swiss 3T3 cells stimulated the membrane transport of 2-deoxyglucose. Treatment of the cells with pertussis toxin (islet-activating protein) inhibited fibroblast growth factor-stimulated hexose transport. 5'-Guanylyl imidodiphosphate (p[NH]ppG), a non hydrolyzable analogue of GTP, increased the number of hexose carriers in the plasma membrane of saponin-permeabilized cells. These results suggest that guanine nucleotide binding protein may be involved in the regulation of hexose transport system by fibroblast growth factor in Swiss 3T3 cells.

Abstract
Ca2+-induced translocation of hexose carriers from microsomal membrane to plasma membrane was demonstrated in saponin-permeabilized Swiss 3T3 cells by a specific D-glucose-inhibitable cytochalasin B-binding assay. The number of hexose carriers in the plasma membrane and the hexose transport activity in intact cells were also compared. The incubation of permeabilized cells with 10 microM Ca2+ at 37 degrees C rapidly increased the number of D-glucose-inhibitable cytochalasin B-binding sites in the plasma membrane from 13 to 40 pmol/mg protein and concomitantly decreased that in the microsomal membrane from 66 to 36 pmol/mg protein, each with a half-time of approx. 2 min. Furthermore, when Ca2+-stimulated cells were exposed to 50 microM EGTA, the effect of Ca2+ on the translocation of D-glucose-inhibitable cytochalasin B-binding sites was reversed with a half-time of approx. 5 min. The concentration of Ca2+ required for the half-maximal effect was approx 500 nM. The magnitude of the stimulatory effect of D-glucose-inhibitable cytochalasin B-binding sites in the plasma membrane closely correlated with the magnitude of stimulatory action of Ca2+ on 3-O-methylglucose transport in the intact cells. These results suggest that Ca2+ regulates the activity of hexose transport across the plasma membrane through a rapid and reversible translocation of hexose carrier between microsomal and plasma membranes of mouse fibroblast Swiss 3T3 cells.

Abstract
An accelerated rate of glucose transport is among the most characteristic biochemical markers of cellular transformation. To study the molecular mechanism by which transporter activity is altered, cultured rodent fibroblasts transfected with activated myc, ras, or src oncogenes were used. In myc-transfected cells, the rate of 2-deoxy-D-glucose uptake was unchanged. However, in cells transfected with activated ras and src oncogenes, the rate of glucose uptake was markedly increased. The increased transport rate in ras- and src-transfected cells was paralleled by a marked increase in the amount of glucose transporter protein, as assessed by immunoblots, as well as by a markedly increased abundance of glucose transporter messenger RNA. Exposure of control cells to the tumor-promoting phorbol ester 12-O-tetradecanoyl phorbol-13-acetate (TPA) for 18 hours had a similar effect of increasing the rate of glucose transport and the abundance of transporter messenger RNA. For ras, src, and TPA, the predominant mechanism responsible for activation of the transport system is increased expression of the structural gene encoding the glucose transport protein.
