Energy Metabolism during Anchorage-Independence

ABSTRACT: The detachment of epithelial cells, but not cancer cells, causes anoikis due to reduced energy production. Invasive tumor cells generate three splice variants of the metastasis gene osteopontin. The cancer-specific form osteopontin-c supports anchorage-independence through inducing oxidoreductases and upregulating intermediates/enzymes in the hexose monophosphate shunt, glutathione cycle, glycolysis, glycerol phosphate shuttle, and mitochondrial respiratory chain. Osteopontin-c signaling upregulates glutathione (consistent with the induction of the enzyme GPX-4), glutamine and glutamate (which can feed into the tricarboxylic acid cycle). Consecutively, the cellular ATP levels are elevated. The elevated creatine may be synthesized from serine via glycine and also supports the energy metabolism by increasing the formation of ATP. Metabolic probing with N-acetyl-L-cysteine, L-glutamate, or glycerol identified differentially regulated pathway components, with mitochondrial activity being redox dependent and the creatine pathway depending on glutamine. The effects are consistent with a stimulation of the energy metabolism that supports anti-anoikis. Our findings imply a synergism in cancer cells between osteopontin-a, which increases the cellular glucose levels, and osteopontin-c, which utilizes this glucose to generate energy. mRNA profiles of MCF-7 cells transfected with osteopontin-a, osteopontin-c and vector control were generated by RNA-Seq, in triplicate, by Illumina HiSeq.

The detachment of epithelial cells, but not cancer cells, causes anoikis due to reduced energy production. Invasive tumor cells generate three splice variants of the metastasis gene osteopontin, the shortest of which (osteopontin-c) supports anchorage-independence. Osteopontin-c signaling upregulates three interdependent pathways of the energy metabolism. Glutathione, glutamine and glutamate support the hexose monophosphate shunt and glycolysis and can feed into the tricarboxylic acid cycle, lea ...[more]

Project description:Abstract Background Chicken embryos emerge from their shell by the piercing movement of the hatching muscle. Although considered a key player during hatching, with activity that imposes a substantial metabolic demand, data are still limited. The study provides a bioenergetic and transcriptomic analyses during the pre-post-hatching period. Methods Weight and morphology alongside content determination of creatine and glycogen were analysed. Transcriptome identified differentially expressed genes and enriched biological processes associated with hatching muscle development, catabolism, and energy provision. Using gene set enrichment, we followed the dynamics of gene-sets involved in energy pathways of oxidative phosphorylation, protein catabolism, glycolysis/gluconeogenesis, and glycogen metabolism. Results Results show several significant findings: (A) Creatine plays a crucial role in the energy metabolism of the hatching muscle, with its concentration remaining stable while glycogen concentration is depleted at hatch and placement. (B) The hatching muscle has the capacity for de-novo creatine synthesis, as indicated by the expression of related genes (AGAT, GAMT). (C) Transcriptome provided insights into genes related to energy pathways under conditions of pre-hatch oxygen and post-hatch glucose limitations (oxidative phosphorylation: NDUF, MT-ND, SDH, UQCR, COX, MT-CO, ATP5, MT-ATP; glycolysis/gluconeogenesis: FBP,G6PC, PFKM; glycogen metabolism: PPP1, PYGL, GYG1). (D) The post-hatch upregulation of protein catabolic processes genes (PSMA, RNF, UBE, FBX), which align with the muscle's weight dynamics, indicates a functional shift from movement during hatching to lifting the head during feeding. Conclusions There is a dynamic metabolic switch in the hatching muscle during embryo-to-hatchling transition. When glycogen concentration depletes, energy supply is maintained by creatine and its de-novo synthesis. Understanding the hatching muscle's energy dynamics is crucial, for reducing hatching failures in endangered avian species, and in domesticated chickens.
