Abstract
Diffuse large B-cell lymphoma (DLBCL), the most common non-Hodgkin's lymphoma in adults, is a genetically and metabolically heterogeneous group of aggressive malignancies. The complexity of their molecular composition and the variability in clinical presentation make clinical diagnosis and treatment selection a serious challenge. The challenge is therefore to quickly and correctly classify DLBCL cells. In this work, we show that Raman imaging is a tool with high diagnostic potential, providing unique information about the biochemical components of tumor cells and their metabolism. We present models of classification of lymphoma cells based on their Raman spectra. The models automatically and efficiently identify DLBCL cells and assign them to a given cell-of-origin (COO) subtype (activated B cell-like (ABC) or germinal center B cell-like (GCB)) or, respectively, to a comprehensive cluster classification (CCC) subtype (OxPhos/non-OxPhos). In addition, we describe each lymphoma subtype by its unique spectral profile, linking it to biochemical, genetic, or metabolic features.

Cancers (Basel) 2023; 15:3653. [PMID: 37509314 PMCID: PMC10377844 DOI: 10.3390/cancers15143653] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 04/18/2023] [Revised: 07/01/2023] [Accepted: 07/07/2023] [Indexed: 07/30/2023] Open
Abstract
Lipidome dysregulation is a hallmark of cancer and inflammation. The global plasma lipidome and sub-lipidome of inflammatory pathways have not been reported in diffuse large B-cell lymphoma (DLBCL). In a pilot study of plasma lipid variation in female DLBCL patients and BMI-matched disease-free controls, we performed targeted lipidomics using LC-MRM to quantify lipid mediators of inflammation and immunity, and those known or hypothesised to be involved in cancer progression: sphingolipids, resolvin D1, arachidonic acid (AA)-derived oxylipins, such as hydroxyeicosatetraenoic acids (HETEs) and dihydroxyeicosatrienoic acids, along with their membrane structural precursors. We report on the role of the eicosanoids in the separation of DLBCL from controls, along with lysophosphatidylinositol LPI 20:4, implying notable changes in lipid metabolic and/or signalling pathways, particularly pertaining to AA lipoxygenase pathway and glycerophospholipid remodelling in the cell membrane. We suggest here the set of S1P, SM 36:1, SM 34:1 and PI 34:1 as DLBCL lipid signatures which could serve as a basis for the prospective validation in larger DLBCL cohorts. Additionally, untargeted lipidomics indicates a substantial change in the overall lipid metabolism in DLBCL. The plasma lipid profiling of DLBCL patients helps to better understand the specific lipid dysregulations and pathways in this cancer.

Abstract
The immune function of normal T cells partially depends on the maneuvering of lipid metabolism through various stages and subsets. Interestingly, T-cell malignancies also reprogram their lipid metabolism to fulfill bioenergetic demand for rapid division. The rewiring of lipid metabolism in T-cell malignancies not only provides survival benefits but also contributes to their stemness, invasion, metastasis, and angiogenesis. Owing to distinctive lipid metabolic programming in T-cell cancer, quantitative, qualitative, and spatial enrichment of specific lipid molecules occur. The formation of lipid rafts rich in cholesterol confers physical strength and sustains survival signals. The accumulation of lipids through de novo synthesis and uptake of free lipids contribute to the bioenergetic reserve required for robust demand during migration and metastasis. Lipid storage in cells leads to the formation of specialized structures known as lipid droplets. The inimitable changes in fatty acid synthesis (FAS) and fatty acid oxidation (FAO) are in dynamic balance in T-cell malignancies. FAO fuels the molecular pumps causing chemoresistance, while FAS offers structural and signaling lipids for rapid division. Lipid metabolism in T-cell cancer provides molecules having immunosuppressive abilities. Moreover, the distinctive composition of membrane lipids has implications for immune evasion by malignant cells of T-cell origin. Lipid droplets and lipid rafts are contributors to maintaining hallmarks of cancer in malignancies of T cells. In preclinical settings, molecular targeting of lipid metabolism in T-cell cancer potentiates the antitumor immunity and chemotherapeutic response. Thus, the direct and adjunct benefit of lipid metabolic targeting is expected to improve the clinical management of T-cell malignancies.

Abstract
Mature lymphoid neoplasms arise de novo or by the transformation of more indolent lymphomas in a process that relies on the stepwise accumulation of genomic and transcriptomic alterations. The microenvironment and neoplastic precursor cells are heavily influenced by pro-inflammatory signaling, regulated in part by oxidative stress and inflammation. Reactive oxygen species (ROSs) are by-products of cellular metabolism able to modulate cell signaling and fate. Moreover, they play a crucial role in the phagocyte system, which is responsible for antigen presentation and the selection of mature B and T cells under normal conditions. Imbalances in pro-oxidant and antioxidant signaling can lead to physiological dysfunction and disease development by disrupting metabolic processes and cell signaling. This narrative review aims to analyze the impact of reactive oxygen species on lymphomagenesis, specifically examining the regulation of microenvironmental players, as well as the response to therapy for B-cell-derived non-Hodgkin lymphomas. Further research is needed to investigate the involvement of ROS and inflammation in the development of lymphomas, which may unravel disease mechanisms and identify innovative therapeutic targets.

Targeting metabolic reprogramming in chronic lymphocytic leukemia. Exp Hematol Oncol 2022; 11:39.

Abstract
Metabolic reprogramming, fundamentally pivotal in carcinogenesis and progression of cancer, is considered as a promising therapeutic target against tumors. In chronic lymphocytic leukemia (CLL) cells, metabolic abnormalities mediate alternations in proliferation and survival compared with normal B cells. However, the role of metabolic reprogramming is still under investigation in CLL. In this review, the critical metabolic processes of CLL were summarized, particularly glycolysis, lipid metabolism and oxidative phosphorylation. The effects of T cells and stromal cells in the microenvironment on metabolism of CLL were also elucidated. Besides, the metabolic alternation is regulated by some oncogenes and tumor suppressor regulators, especially TP53, MYC and ATM. Thus, the agents targeting metabolic enzymes or signal pathways may impede the progression of CLL. Both the inhibitor of 3-hydroxy-3-methylglutaryl coenzyme A reductase (HMGCR) statins and the lipoprotein lipase inhibitor orlistat induce the apoptosis of CLL cells. In addition, a series of oxidative phosphorylation inhibitors play important roles in decreasing the proliferation of CLL cells. We epitomized recent advancements in metabolic reprogramming in CLL and discussed their clinical potentiality for innovative therapy options. Metabolic reprogramming plays a vital role in the initiation and progression of CLL. Therapeutic approaches targeting metabolism have their advantages in improving the survival of CLL patients. This review may shed novel light on the metabolism of CLL, leading to the development of targeted agents based on the reshaping metabolism of CLL cells.

Abstract
Metabolic reprogramming is one of the hallmarks of tumor. Growing evidence suggests metabolic changes that support oncogenic progression may cause selective vulnerabilities that can be exploited for cancer treatment. Increasing demands for certain nutrients under genetic determination or environmental challenge enhance dependency of tumor cells on specific nutrient, which could be therapeutically developed through targeting such nutrient dependency. Various nutrients including several amino acids and glucose have been found to induce dependency in genetic alteration- or context-dependent manners. In this review, we discuss the extensively studied nutrient dependency and the biological mechanisms behind such vulnerabilities. Besides, existing applications and strategies to target nutrient dependency in different cancer types, accompanied with remaining challenges to further exploit these metabolic vulnerabilities to improve cancer therapies, are reviewed.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To explore whether the growth and treatment resistance of lymphoma and myeloma tumors is similar to that previously observed in leukemic and solid tumors growing in the same organ microenvironment. METHODS All published cases of 3 primary hematologic malignancies in breast, without systemic involvement, were identified, with follow-ups solicited from authors. Treatment approaches were analyzed to highlight the most effective. RESULTS Similar histologic features and biology among primary tumors of leukemia, lymphoma, plasmacytoma, and solid breast cancer was revealed. Review of treatments: tumor-directed, chemotherapy, or combination showed the benefit of tumor removal, and use of systemic agents in adjunct, not primary, treatment. Optimal assessment is limited by few cases of PET/CT verifying limited tumor extent. The common biology observed and cases of long survival after tumor/stroma eradication point to the complicity of organ microenvironment in the chemoresistance and treatment failure commonly observed in patients. CONCLUSIONS The interaction of an organ microenvironment, particularly its adipocytes, with malignant cells, results in similar histologic changes, metastatic potential, and chemoresistance in 3 hematologic malignancies and solid cancers. Improved survival in hematologic malignancies could result from adopting PET/CT to find tumor and its extent, eradicating tumor, and elucidating common therapeutic targets.
