Unveiling metabolic changes in marsupialized odontogenic keratocyst: A pilot study. Oral Dis 2021; 28:2219-2229. [PMID: 33978981 DOI: 10.1111/odi.13913] [Citation(s) in RCA: 1] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.3] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 02/18/2021] [Revised: 04/08/2021] [Accepted: 05/05/2021] [Indexed: 01/03/2023]
Abstract
OBJECTIVE We aimed to assess which metabolic pathways would be implicated in the phenotypic changes of the epithelial lining of odontogenic keratocyst after marsupialization, comparing pre- and post-marsupialized lesions with adjacent oral mucosa. MATERIALS AND METHODS Eighteen formalin-fixed and paraffin-embedded tissues from six subjects were divided into three paired groups: odontogenic keratocyst pre- (n = 6) and post-marsupialization (n = 6), and adjacent oral mucosa (n = 6). The metabolic pathways found in these groups were obtained by high-performance liquid chromatography-mass spectrometry-based untargeted metabolomics performed. RESULTS Through putative metabolite annotation followed by pathway enrichment and predictive analysis with automated algorithms (Mummichog and Gene Set Enrichment Analysis), we found differences in many cellular processes that may be involved in inflammation, oxidative stress response, keratinocyte-basal membrane attachment, differentiation, and proliferation functions, all relevant to odontogenic keratocyst pathobiology and the phenotype acquired after marsupialization. CONCLUSION Our study was able to identify several metabolic pathways potentially involved in the metaplastic changes induced by marsupialization of odontogenic keratocysts. An improved comprehension of this process could pave the way for the development of targeted therapies.

Abstract
Inhibitors of lipid metabolic pathways, particularly drugs targeting the mevalonate pathway, have been suggested to be valuable in enhancing the effectiveness of epidermal growth factor receptor-tyrosine kinase inhibitors (EGFR-TKIs) and these compounds may also be effective in patients with inherent or acquired resistance to EGFR-TKIs. The present study examined gene expression profiles in lung adenocarcinoma to characterize the interaction between growth factor signals and lipid metabolic pathways at the transcriptional level. Gene expression correlation analysis showed that genes involved in the mevalonate pathway and unsaturated fatty acid synthesis were negatively correlated with the expression of EGFR, MET and other growth factor receptor genes, as well as with the expression of genes involved in cell migration and adhesion. On the other hand, the expression of genes related to cell cycle progression, DNA repair and DNA replication were positively correlated with the metabolic pathway genes mentioned above, and a significant number of such genes had promoter domains for nuclear factor Y (NFY). Genes whose expression showed a positive correlation with NFY expression and mevalonate pathway genes were found to exhibit protein-protein interactions with several 'hub' genes, including BRCA1, that have been associated with both lung cancer and cell division. These results support the idea that inhibition of lipid metabolic pathways may be valuable as an alternative therapeutic option for the treatment of lung adenocarcinoma, and suggest that NFY is a possible molecular target for such efforts.

Abstract
Peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor gamma (PPARgamma) ligands seem to induce anticancer effects on prostate cancer cells, but the mechanism is not clear. The effect of PPARgamma ligands omega-6 fatty acids and ciglitazone (2-15 microM)--on proliferation, and apoptosis of LNCaP, PC-3, DU145, CA-K and BPH-K cells was studied. PPARgamma ligands led to: (1) reduction of proliferation (20-50%) of all the studied cell lines, (2) stimulation of differentiation of prostate cancer cells through an increased expression (1.5-3-fold: LNCaP, DU145, BPH-K) or reexpression (PC-3, CA-K) of E-cadherin with parallel inhibition of N-cadherin expression (PC-3, CA-K) and (3) down-regulation (1-2-fold) of beta-catenin and c-myc expression. The selective PPARgamma antagonist GW9662 abolished the effect of those ligands on prostate cancer cells. These results suggest that inhibition of beta-catenin and in effect c-myc expression through activation of PPARgamma may help prostate cancer cells to restore several characteristics of normal prostate cells phenotype.

Abstract
Phosphorylation of the cell adhesion protein CEACAM1 increases insulin sensitivity and decreases insulin-dependent mitogenesis in vivo. Here we show that CEACAM1 is a substrate of the EGFR and that upon being phosphorylated, CEACAM1 reduces EGFR-mediated growth of transfected Cos-7 and MCF-7 cells in response to EGF. Using transgenic mice overexpressing a phosphorylation-defective CEACAM1 mutant in liver (L-SACC1), we show that the effect of CEACAM1 on EGF-dependent cell proliferation is mediated by its ability to bind to and sequester Shc, thus uncoupling EGFR signaling from the ras/MAPK pathway. In L-SACC1 mice, we also show that impaired CEACAM1 phosphorylation leads to ligand-independent increase of EGFR-mediated cell proliferation. This appears to be secondary to visceral obesity and the metabolic syndrome, with increased levels of output of free fatty acids and heparin-binding EGF-like growth factor from the adipose tissue of the mice. Thus, L-SACC1 mice provide a model for the mechanistic link between increased cell proliferation in states of impaired metabolism and visceral obesity.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE The intestinal side effects of anti-tumoural therapy can be so severe as to preclude its clinical efficacy, although the use of selected nutrients and growth factors may ameliorate the noxious effects. This study examines whether dietary supplementation with the polyunsaturated fatty acid docosahexaenoic acid (DHA) potentiates the protective action of growth hormone in the intestine and whether a synergetic effect occurs with dietary protein and DHA enrichment and growth hormone treatment. METHODS Male Wistar rats were divided into nine groups and received a standard diet, or a diet supplemented with protein, or a diet supplemented with DHA, or a diet supplemented with both protein and DHA. Three days later, the rats were given 5-fluorouracil (5-FU) and treated with either growth hormone or placebo. A further group of animals fed a standard diet was not treated and served as a control group. Intestinal morphometry, proliferation and apoptosis were determined. RESULTS Supplementing the diet with DHA prevented the negative action of 5-FU on mucosal morphometry, but protein supplementation was necessary to prevent the increased apoptosis. When growth hormone was also given with the dietary supplementation, the hypoproliferative effect of 5-FU was also prevented. CONCLUSION Enriching the diet with DHA protects against intestinal lesions produced by the anti-tumoural drug 5-FU but requires the joint administration of supplementary protein and growth hormone to reduce the noxious effects of 5-FU.

Abstract
In vitro cell culture experiments have lead to the consensus in the literature that certain PUFAs have a selective cytotoxic or anti-proliferative effect on tumour cells and a minimal, or no effect on normal cells. Re-examination of key publications showed that when normal cells were used for comparison, they were generally not from the same cell, tissue, or species type as the tumour cells. Recently, investigations have included more appropriate normal control cells, and though tumour specific cytotoxic/anti-proliferative PUFA effects are found in some cell types, in others the normal cells are more sensitive. Cell type differences were found in the relative ability of individual PUFAs to act. However, within a cell type differences in susceptibility were influenced by grade and stage of tumour, immortalisation and tumourigenic status, cell culture media and cell plating density. Together these results suggest that the consensus is not valid, and that susceptibility to PUFA is cell type specific, and alters during neoplastic progression. Furthermore, the cytotoxic/anti-proliferative effect induced by both n-3 and n-6 PUFAs on a wide variety of cell types, associated with an increase in lipid peroxidation in vitro, cannot account for the in vivo data on the relationship between dietary fat and certain cancers. However, the effects of PUFAs and their metabolites on cell signalling pathways may explain the in vivo data.

Abstract
Differences in the modulating potential of advanced glycation end product (AGE) peptides versus AGE proteins. Advanced glycation end products (AGEs), identified as irreversible products of a complex reaction of carbonyl groups of reducing sugars with free protein amino groups, are characterized by resistance to proteolytic degradation. The incomplete digestion of AGEs results in low molecular weight AGEs accumulating in the blood of diabetic and uremic patients. We hypothesized that the accumulation of these compounds may contribute to the dysfunction and/or degeneration of tubular epithelial cells. Our study examined whether low-molecular-weight AGE peptides and high-molecular-weight AGE proteins affect the functional cellular properties of two tubular epithelial cell lines: immortalized human kidney tubular epithelial (IHKE) and immortalized rat renal proximal tubular cells (IRPTCs). Parameters of cellular damage and growth behavior were cell counting, analysis of the cellular metabolic activity (MTT assay), as well as cellular proliferation (3[H]-thymidine-incorporation). IHKE treated with bovine serum albumin-AGE (BSA-AGE 50) or BSA-AGE-Pep 50 revealed a decrease in cellular metabolic activity as compared with controls after 48 hours of incubation (73 +/- 9% for BSA-AGE 50 and 62 +/- 11% for BSA-AGE-Pep 50 vs. 89 +/- 8% for BSA Co 50). Low molecular weight BSA-AGE-Pep 50 induced a significantly greater cellular damage in IRPTCs as compared with high molecular weight BSA-AGE 50 after 144 hours of incubation (59 +/- 15% for BSA-AGE 50 vs. 31 +/- 13% for BSA-AGE-Pep 50). The decrease in metabolic activity correlated well with a decrease in cellular proliferation. The results suggest a higher toxic potential of low molecular weight AGE peptides compared with high molecular weight AGE proteins in IRPTC and IHKE. This may provide evidence that low molecular weight degradation products of AGE-modified proteins have an important risk potential.

Abstract
Chloro-containing fatty acids are a major fraction of extractable, organically bound chlorine in fish. It has been suggested that dichloro stearic acid (9,10-dichlorooctadecanoic acid) (C18) is metabolized to dichloro myristic acid (5,6-dichlorotetradecanoic acid) (C14) which accumulates in tissues. Hence, the biological effects of the C18 dichloro fatty acid could be due to formation of the C14 dichloro fatty acid. In this study we have compared the effects of dichloro stearic and dichloro myristic acid on growth of three widely differing cell lines. Both fatty acids inhibited cell growth; however, dichloro myristic acid had a weaker growth inhibitory effect than dichloro stearic acid. Dichloro myristic acid had a biphasic effect (i.e. growth was stimulated at low concentrations, followed by inhibition at higher concentrations) on the growth of human hepatoma cells and immortalized human kidney epithelial cells, but no such effect on human microvascular endothelial cells. The order of potency for growth inhibition by dichloro myristic acid was consistently human hepatoma cells>immortalized human kidney epithelial cells >human microvascular endothelial cells, whereas the relative potency of dichloro stearic acid was variable. Albumin alone stimulated cell growth and had a stronger protective effect against growth inhibition by dichloro myristic acid than against that of dichloro stearic acid. It seems unlikely that a major part of the effect of dichloro stearic acid on cell growth is caused by conversion to dichloro myristic acid.

Abstract
The effects of exogenous gamma-linolenic acid (GLA), arachidonic acid (AA), prostaglandin E2 (PGE2) and prostaglandin A2 (PGA2) were evaluated on cell growth in two squamous oesophageal carcinoma cell lines, WHCO1 and WHCO3 and normal monkey kidney (NMK) cells. In both cancer cell lines all four compounds inhibited cell growth significantly. Indomethacin (I) alone, or in combination with either GLA or AA, caused marked inhibition of cell growth in WHCO3. Total tyrosine kinase (TK) activity was determined after exposure of all three cell types to the lipid compounds. Negligible differences were observed in TK activity between treated and untreated NMK cells. Small increases were noticed in WHCO1. Marked TK stimulation was observed in WHCO3. Addition of indomethacin to WHCO3 also increased TK activity above control value. Tyrosine phosphorylation status of exposed cells indicated that a band of approximately 55 kDa (approximately 55 kDa) was primarily influenced in both WHCO3 and WHCO1. PGA2 caused a decrease in tyrosine phosphorylation of the approximately 55 kDa protein in all three cell types. Negligible differences were observed in the tyrosine phosphorylation status of the approximately 55 kDa in NMK cells exposed to GLA, AA and PGE2 respectively. However, tyrosine phosphorylation of a number of other proteins (21.5-97.4 kDa) was observed in NMK cells. Flow cytometry studies showed an increase in S phase and decrease in G1 phase in WHCO3 exposed to PGE2 and PGA2. Indomethacin alone, or in combination with GLA and AA, respectively, lead to an increase in G1 and a decrease in S phase. Induction of p53 levels was observed in WHCO3 cells exposed to GLA, AA, PGA2, indomethacin and the combination of indomethacin and GLA or AA.

Abstract
The current study examines the stimulation of healing processes and signal transduction that is mediated by insulin-like growth factor-I (IGF-I) in an ex vivo esophageal explant model when using tyrphostin inhibition of receptor tyrosine kinase. The explant model provides a 3-dimensional cellular environment of multiple interacting cells isolated from the neural and vascular supply. Tyrphostins previously characterized for their interactions with epithelial growth factor (EGF) receptor-associated protein tyrosine kinases were tested for their potential effects on IGF-I growth-promoting activity. Explants of rabbit esophagus were incubated in media with or without IGF-I. Tyrphostins 1, 23, 25, 46, 47, 51, and 63 were added. We assessed DNA synthesis by tritiated thymidine incorporation. Outgrowth from the edge of the primary mucosa of the explant was evaluated on histologic sections, and cell proliferation was confirmed with immunohistology. IGF-I increased the incorporation of tritiated thymidine by 50% to 100%. Tyrphostins 23 and 47 eliminated IGF-I-induced proliferation in a dose-dependent manner. Tyrphostins 25, 46, and 51--along with negative controls tyrphostin 1 and tyrphostin 63--were ineffective, inasmuch as IGF-I-stimulated growth remained unchanged in their presence. Proliferative activity demonstrated by PCNA staining was confined to new mucosa. Two of 5 tyrphostins originally developed as EGF receptor protein tyrosine kinase inhibitors were effective in inhibiting the actions of exogenous IGF-I. We conclude that IGF-I stimulation may play an important role in repair processes in the esophagus and that this stimulation can be inhibited by using specific tyrphostins.

Abstract
Chlorinated fatty acids represent a major fraction of extractable, organically bound chlorine in fish. After dietary intake such fatty acids may be transferred from the mother to the foetus through the placenta, and via breast milk to the child. In the present work we have studied the effect of chlorinated oleic acid on the growth of three widely differing types of cells in culture. Chlorinated oleic acid inhibited growth of Human Microvascular Endothelial Cells (HMVEC), Immortilized Human Kidney Epithelial (IHKE) cells, and human Hepatoma cells (HepG2). The order of potency was: HMVEC > IHKE > HepG2. Vitamin E counteracted the inhibitory effect of chlorinated oleic acid on HepG2 cells, but did not significantly affect the fatty acid effect on HMVEC or IHKE. Defatted serum albumin stimulated the growth of HMVEC and IHKE. With HMVEC there was no major interaction between the effect of albumin and chlorinated oleic acid on cell growth. In contrast, with IHKE albumin at low concentration abolished the growth inhibiting effect of chlorinated oleic acid and appreciably counteracted growth inhibition by the fatty acid of HepG2. We conclude that the growth modulation by chlorinated oleic acid and its interaction with vitamin E and albumin are cell specific.

Abstract
The effects of omega 3 fatty acids and epidermal growth factor (EGF) on the activity of receptor tyrosine kinase (RTK) and phospholipase C (phosphatidylinositol (PI)-specific PLC) were examined in EMT6 cells. The non-omega 3 treated, non-EGF stimulated cells served as controls. Treatment of the EMT6 cells with omega 3 fatty acids resulted in a 62% increase in RTK activity and a 67% increase in PI-specific PLC activity. When EGF was added to incubations for RTK activity, it stimulated the RTK activity 40% in the control cells and 130% in the omega 3-treated cells. When EGF was added to incubations for PI-specific PLC activity, a 54% increase in PI-specific PLC activity was observed in control cells and a 94% increase in the omega 3-treated cells. Thus, treating EMT6 cells with omega 3 fatty acids seems to increase RTK activity and PI-specific PLC activity to a similar extent, but has differential effects on the ability of these enzyme activities to be stimulated by EGF.

Abstract
Omega-3 fatty acids have diverse health benefits that are not clearly understood. In this study we have examined the effects of the omega-3 fatty acid docosahexaenoic acid (DHA) on mitogen-activated and resting splenic lymphocytes. DHA inhibited lymphocyte proliferation, producing an apparent block or prolongation of S phase, without evidence for direct cytotoxicity. In contrast, DHA enhanced the survival of resting lymphocytes in culture without inducing cell cycling. When DHA was added at the start of culture, the survival advantage was apparent for 2 to 3 days, after which time typical lymphocyte attrition occurred. Using flow cytometry we observed that both T and B cell recoveries were increased by DHA, but there were DHA dose-dependent alterations of forward- and side-scatter characteristics, with some preference for B cells, perhaps indicating altered membrane properties. Our data imply that DHA may check ongoing immune response while concurrently preserving resting lymphocytes needed for subsequent immune responses.
