Untargeted metabolomics analysis of serum and urine unveils the protective effect of cilastatin on altered metabolic pathways during cisplatin-induced acute kidney injury.

Abstract
Acute kidney injury (AKI) is one of the most serious complications of cisplatin anticancer therapies. Cilastatin is a highly promising nephroprotective agent to eventually enter clinical use, but its biochemical mechanism is still not fully understood. We have employed an untargeted metabolomics approach based on capillary electrophoresis mass spectrometry (CE-MS) analysis of serum and urine from an in vivo rat model, to explore the metabolic pathways involved in cisplatin-induced AKI and cilastatin nephroprotection. A total of 155 and 76 identified metabolites were found to be significantly altered during cisplatin treatment in urine and serum, respectively. Most of these altered metabolites were either partially or totally recovered by cilastatin and cisplatin co-treatment. The main metabolic pathways disturbed by cisplatin during AKI involved diverse amino acids metabolism and biosynthesis, tricarboxylic acids (TCA) cycle, nicotinate and nicotinamide metabolism, among others. Cilastatin was proved to protect diverse cisplatin-altered pathways involving metabolites related to immunomodulation, inflammation, oxidative stress and amino acid metabolism in proximal tubules. However, cisplatin-altered mitochondrial metabolism (especially, the energy-producing TCA cycle) remained largely unprotected by cilastatin, suggesting an unresolved mitochondrial direct damage. Multivariate analysis allowed effective discrimination of cisplatin-induced AKI and cilastatin renoprotection based on metabolic features. A number of potential serum and urine biomarkers could also be foreseen for cisplatin-induced AKI detection and cilastatin nephroprotection.

Visualization of renal rotenone accumulation after oral administration and in situ detection of kidney injury biomarkers via MALDI mass spectrometry imaging. Front Mol Biosci 2024; 11:1366278. [PMID: 39011141 PMCID: PMC11246995 DOI: 10.3389/fmolb.2024.1366278] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/06/2024] [Accepted: 06/04/2024] [Indexed: 07/17/2024] Open
Abstract
The examination of drug accumulation within complex biological systems offers valuable insights into the molecular aspects of drug metabolism and toxicity. Matrix-assisted laser desorption/ionization mass spectrometry imaging (MALDI MSI) is an innovative methodology that enables the spatial visualization and quantification of biomolecules as well as drug and its metabolites in complex biological system. Hence, this method provides valuable insights into the metabolic profile and any molecular changes that may occur as a result of drug treatment. The renal system is particularly vulnerable to adverse effects of drug-induced harm and toxicity. In this study, MALDI MSI was utilized to examine the spatial distribution of drug and renal metabolites within kidney tissues subsequent to a single oral dosage of the anticancer compound rotenone. The integration of ion mobility spectrometry with MALDI MSI enhanced the data acquisition and analysis, resulting to improved mass resolution. Subsequently, the MS/MS fragment ions of rotenone reference drug were detected and characterized using MALDI HDMS/MS imaging. Notably, drug accumulation was observed in the cortical region of the representative kidney tissue sections treated with rotenone. The histological examination of treated kidney tissues did not reveal any observable changes. Differential ion intensity of renal endogenous metabolites was observed between untreated and rotenone-treated tissues. In the context of treated kidney tissues, the ion intensity level of sphingomyelin (D18:1/16:0), a sphingolipid indicator of glomerular cell injury and renal damage, was found to be elevated significantly compared to untreated kidney tissues. Conversely, the ion intensities of choline, glycero-3-phosphocholine (GPC), inosine, and a lysophosphatidylcholine LysoPC(18:0) exhibited a significant decrease. The results of this study demonstrate the potential of MALDI MSI as a novel technique for investigating the in situ spatial distribution of drugs and renal endogenous molecules while preserving the anatomical integrity of the kidney tissue. This technique can be used to study drug-induced metabolism and toxicity in a dynamic manner.

Abstract
Methionine and choline both are essential nutrients which are needed for methyl group metabolism. A methionine-choline-deficient (MCD) diet leads to pathological changes in the kidney. The mechanism of the MCD diet is complex, and fundamental research is still required to provide a better understanding of the driving forces behind it. We evaluated the regional effects of the MCD diet on the metabolites of mouse kidney tissue using desorption electrospray ionization mass spectrometry imaging technology. A total of 20, 17, and 13 metabolites were significantly changed in the cortex, outer medulla, and inner medulla, respectively, of the mouse kidney tissue after the administration of the MCD diet. Among the discriminating metabolites, only three metabolites (guanidoacetic acid, serine, and nicotinamide riboside) were significantly increased, and all the other metabolites showed a significant decrease. The results showed that there were significant region-specific changes in the serine metabolism, carnitine metabolism, choline metabolism, and arginine metabolism. This study presents unique regional metabolic data, providing a more comprehensive understanding of the molecular characteristics of the MCD diet in the kidney.

Abstract
Kidney injury and repair are accompanied by significant disruptions in metabolic pathways, leading to renal cell dysfunction and further contributing to the progression of renal pathology. This review outlines the complex involvement of various energy production pathways in glucose, lipid, amino acid, and ketone body metabolism within the kidney. We provide a comprehensive summary of the aberrant regulation of these metabolic pathways in kidney injury and repair. After acute kidney injury (AKI), there is notable mitochondrial damage and oxygen/nutrient deprivation, leading to reduced activity in glycolysis and mitochondrial bioenergetics. Additionally, disruptions occur in the pentose phosphate pathway (PPP), amino acid metabolism, and the supply of ketone bodies. The subsequent kidney repair phase is characterized by a metabolic shift toward glycolysis, along with decreased fatty acid β-oxidation and continued disturbances in amino acid metabolism. Furthermore, the impact of metabolism dysfunction on renal cell injury, regeneration, and the development of renal fibrosis is analyzed. Finally, we discuss the potential therapeutic strategies by targeting renal metabolic regulation to ameliorate kidney injury and fibrosis and promote kidney repair.

Abstract
Cisplatin is widely used for the treatment of various types of cancer. However, cisplatin-induced nephrotoxicity (CIN) is frequently observed in patients receiving cisplatin therapy which poses a challenge in its clinical utility. Currently used clinical biomarkers for CIN are not adequate for early detection of nephrotoxicity, hence there is a need to identify potential early biomarkers in predicting CIN. In the current study, a combination of in vitro toxicodynamic (TD) modeling and untargeted global metabolomics approach was used to identify novel potential metabolite biomarkers for early detection of CIN. In addition, we investigated the protective role of cimetidine (CIM), an inhibitor of the organic cation transporter 2 (OCT2), in suppressing CIN. We first characterized the time-course of nephrotoxic effects of cisplatin (CIS) and the protective effects of CIM in a human pseudo-immortalized renal proximal tubule epithelial cell line (RPTEC), SA7K cell line. Secondly, we used a mathematical cell-level, in vitro TD modeling approach to quantitatively characterize the time-course effects of CIS and CIM as single agents and combination in SA7K cells. Based on the experimental and modeling results, we selected relevant concentrations of CIS and CIM for our metabolomics study. With the help of PCA (Principal Component Analysis) and PLS-DA (Projection to Latent Structure - Discriminate Analysis) analyses, we confirmed global metabolome changes for different groups (CIS, CIM, CIS+CIM vs control) in SA7K cells. Based on the criterion of a p-value ≤ 0.05 and a fold change ≥ 2 or ≤ 0.5, we identified 20 top metabolites that were significantly changed during the early phase i.e. within first 12 h of CIS treatment. Finally, pathway analysis was conducted that revealed the key metabolic pathways that were most impacted in CIN.

Metabolomic Insight into Implications of Induction Chemotherapy Followed by Concomitant Chemoradiotherapy in Locally Advanced Head and Neck Cancer. Int J Mol Sci 2023; 25:188. [PMID: 38203359 PMCID: PMC10779362 DOI: 10.3390/ijms25010188] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/17/2023] [Revised: 12/15/2023] [Accepted: 12/20/2023] [Indexed: 01/12/2024] Open
Abstract
The present study compares two groups of locally advanced patients with head and neck squamous cell carcinoma (LA-HNSCC) undergoing concurrent chemoradiotherapy (cCHRT), specifically those for whom it is a first-line treatment and those who have previously received induction chemotherapy (iCHT). The crucial question is whether iCHT is a serious burden during subsequent treatment for LA-HNSCC and how iCHT affects the tolerance to cCHRT. Of the 107 LA-HNSCC patients, 54 received cisplatin-based iCHT prior to cCHRT. The patients were clinically monitored at weekly intervals from the day before until the completion of the cCHRT. The 843 blood samples were collected and divided into two aliquots: for laboratory blood tests and for nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) spectroscopy (a Bruker 400 MHz spectrometer). The NMR metabolites and the clinical parameters from the laboratory blood tests were analyzed using orthogonal partial least squares analysis (OPLS) and the Mann-Whitney U test (MWU). After iCHT, the patients begin cCHRT with significantly (MWU p-value < 0.05) elevated blood serum lipids, betaine, glycine, phosphocholine, and reticulocyte count, as well as significantly lowered NMR inflammatory markers, serine, hematocrit, neutrophile, monocyte, red blood cells, hemoglobin, and CRP. During cCHRT, a significant increase in albumin and psychological distress was observed, as well as a significant decrease in platelet, N-acetyl-cysteine, tyrosine, and phenylalanine, in patients who received iCHT. Importantly, all clinical symptoms (except the decreased platelets) and most metabolic alterations (except for betaine, serine, tyrosine, glucose, and phosphocholine) resolve until the completion of cCHRT. In conclusion, iCHT results in hematological toxicity, altered lipids, and one-carbon metabolism, as well as downregulated inflammation, as observed at the beginning and during cCHRT. However, these complications are temporary, and most of them resolve at the end of the treatment. This suggests that iCHT prior to cCHRT does not pose a significant burden and should be considered as a safe treatment option for LA-HNSCC.

Abstract
Cisplatin is a widely used and highly effective anti-cancer drug with significant side effects including ototoxicity and nephrotoxicity. Macrophages, the major resident immune cells in the cochlea and kidney, are important drivers of both inflammatory and tissue repair responses. To investigate the roles of macrophages in cisplatin-induced ototoxicity and nephrotoxicity, we used PLX3397, an FDA-approved inhibitor of the colony-stimulating factor 1 receptor (CSF1R), to eliminate tissue-resident macrophages during the course of cisplatin administration. Mice treated with cisplatin alone (cisplatin/vehicle) had significant hearing loss (ototoxicity) as well as kidney injury (nephrotoxicity). Macrophage ablation using PLX3397 resulted in significantly reduced hearing loss measured by auditory brainstem responses (ABR) and distortion-product otoacoustic emissions (DPOAE). Sensory hair cells in the cochlea were protected against cisplatin-induced death in mice treated with PLX3397. Macrophage ablation also protected against cisplatin-induced nephrotoxicity, as evidenced by markedly reduced tubular injury and fibrosis as well as reduced plasma blood urea nitrogen (BUN) and neutrophil gelatinase-associated lipocalin (NGAL) levels. Mechanistically, our data suggest that the protective effect of macrophage ablation against cisplatin-induced ototoxicity and nephrotoxicity is mediated by reduced platinum accumulation in both the inner ear and the kidney. Together our data indicate that ablation of tissue-resident macrophages represents a novel strategy for mitigating cisplatin-induced ototoxicity and nephrotoxicity.
