Metastatic Melanoma Induced Metabolic Changes in C57BL/6J Mouse Stomach Measured by 1H NMR Spectroscopy.

ABSTRACT: Melanoma is a malignant tumor of melanocytes with high capability of invasion and rapid metastasis to other organs. Malignant melanoma is the most common metastatic malignancy found in Gastrointestinal Tract (GI). In this work, the 1H NMR-based metabolomics approach is used to investigate the metabolite profile differences of stomach tissue extracts of metastatic B16-F10 melanoma and control groups in C57BL/6J mouse and to search for specific metabolite biomarker candidates. Principal Component Analysis (PCA), an unsupervised multivariate data analysis method, is used to detect possible outliers, while Orthogonal Projection to Latent Structure (OPLS), a supervised multivariate data analysis method, is employed to evaluate important metabolites responsible for discriminating the control and the melanoma groups. Both PCA and OPLS results reveal that the melanoma group can be well separated from its control group. Among the 50 identified metabolites, it is found that the concentrations of 19 metabolites are significantly changed with the levels of O-phosphocholine and hypoxanthine down-regulated while the levels of isoleucine, leucine, valine, isobutyrate, threonine, cadaverine, alanine, glutamate, glutamine, methionine, citrate, asparagine, tryptophan, glycine, serine, uracil, and formate up-regulated in the melanoma group. These significantly changed metabolites are associated with multiple biological pathways and may be potential biomarkers for metastatic melanoma in stomach.

Project description:BackgroundAmbiguity in malignant transformation of glioma has made prognostic diagnosis very challenging. Tumor malignant transformation is closely correlated with specific alterations of the metabolic profile. Exploration of the underlying metabolic alterations in glioma cells of different malignant degree is therefore vital to develop metabolic biomarkers for prognosis monitoring.MethodsWe conducted (1)H nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR)-based metabolic analysis on cell lines (CHG5, SHG44, U87, U118, U251) developed from gliomas of different malignant grades (WHO II and WHO IV). Several methods were applied to analyze the (1)H-NMR spectral data of polar extracts of cell lines and to identify characteristic metabolites, including principal component analysis (PCA), partial least squares discriminant analysis (PLS-DA), fuzzy c-means clustering (FCM) analysis and orthogonal projection to latent structure with discriminant analysis (OPLS-DA). The expression analyses of glial fibrillary acidic protein (GFAP) and matrix metal proteinases (MMP-9) were used to assess malignant behaviors of cell lines. GeneGo pathway analysis was used to associate characteristic metabolites with malignant behavior protein markers GFAP and MMP-9.ResultsStable and distinct metabolic profiles of the five cell lines were obtained. The metabolic profiles of the low malignancy grade group (CHG5, SHG44) were clearly distinguished from those of the high malignancy grade group (U87, U118, U251). Seventeen characteristic metabolites were identified that could distinguish the metabolic profiles of the two groups, nine of which were mapped to processes related to GFAP and MMP-9. Furthermore, the results from both quantitative comparison and metabolic correlation analysis indicated that the significantly altered metabolites were primarily involved in perturbation of metabolic pathways of tricarboxylic acid (TCA) cycle anaplerotic flux, amino acid metabolism, anti-oxidant mechanism and choline metabolism, which could be correlated with the changes in the glioma cells' malignant behaviors.ConclusionsOur results reveal the metabolic heterogeneity of glioma cell lines with different degrees of malignancy. The obtained metabolic profiles and characteristic metabolites are closely associated with the malignant features of glioma cells, which may lay the basis for both determining the molecular mechanisms underlying glioma malignant transformation and exploiting non-invasive biomarkers for prognosis monitoring.
