Project description:Cancer cachexia is a metabolic multifactorial syndrome that causes up to 20% of cancer-related deaths. Muscle atrophy, the hallmark of cancer cachexia, strongly impairs the quality of life of cancer patients; however, the underlying pathological process is still poorly understood. In our study, the transcriptome of cachectic gastrocnemius muscle in the C26 xenograft model was comparied with normal control. The key pathways involving this diseases was discovered according to the different expressed genes.

Project description:The IL-6 was reported as a key cachectic factor in mice inoculated with colon carcinoma 26 (C26) cells, a widely used cancer cachexia model. However, we identified We found that the growth of IL-6 KO tumors was dramatically delayed. More strikingly, while IL-6 KO tumors eventually reached the similar size as wild-type tumors, cachexia still took place, despite no elevation in circulating IL-6. We further showed that IL-6 promotes tumor growth by facilitating immune evatioon but is dispensable for cachexia.

Project description:Cancer mediated activation of the ActRIIB-ALK4/5 heterodimer by myostatin is strongly associated with muscle wasting. Progressive skeletal muscle wasting, with or without loss of adipose tissue, is observed in up to 50 per cent of all cancer patients. This multifactorial syndrome is known as cachexia, and cannot be fully reversed by conventional nutritional support. Cachexia leads to progressive functional impairment. We investigated in vitro and in vivo the efficacy of ALK4/5 receptor blockers like SB431542 in preventing muscle wasting and in this context determined muscle-related miRNA expression profiles in non-tumor bearing control mice, in SB431542 treated C26 tumor-bearing mice and in cachectic C26 tumor-bearing mice.

Project description:We found out that bile acid pathways were deeply altered in cachectic mice bearing ectopic tumor, leading to an increase in portal and liver conjugated bile acid levels. Counteracting this increased level in conjugated bile acids using cholestyramine, a bile acid sequestrant, reduced hepatic inflammation in cachectic mice with no impact on steatosis and minor effects on thermogenesis. Hepatic whole transcriptome analysis identified 16 pathways altered in cachectic mice which were counteracted by cholestyramine, pointing out the large contribution of bile acids to hepatic disturbances occurring in cancer cachexia.

Project description:Background: Anorexia is a common symptom among cancer patients and contributes to malnutrition and strongly impinges on quality of life. Cancer-induced anorexia is thought to be caused by an inability of food intake-regulating systems in the hypothalamus to respond adequately to negative energy balance during tumour growth. Here, we show that this impaired response of food-intake control is likely to be mediated by altered serotonin signalling and by failure in post-transcriptional neuropeptide Y (NPY) regulation. Methods: Two tumour cachectic mouse models with different food intake behaviours were used: a C26-colon adenocarcinoma model with increased food intake and a Lewis lung carcinoma model with decreased food intake. This contrast in food intake behaviour between tumour-bearing (TB) mice in response to growth of the two different tumours was used to distinguish between processes involved in cachexia and mechanisms that might be important in food intake regulation. The hypothalamus was used for transcriptomics (affymetrix chips). Results: In both models, hypothalamic expression of orexigenic NPY was significantly higher compared with controls, suggesting that this change does not directly reflect food intake status but might be linked to negative energy balance in cachexia. Expression of genes involved in serotonin signalling showed to be different between C26-TB mice and Lewis lung carcinoma-TB mice and was inversely associated with food intake. In vitro, using hypothalamic cell lines, serotonin repressed neuronal hypothalamic NPY secretion while not affecting messenger NPY expression, suggesting that serotonin signalling can interfere with NPY synthesis, transport, or secretion. Conclusions: Altered serotonin signalling is associated with changes in food intake behaviour in cachectic TB mice. Serotonins' inhibitory effect on food intake under cancer cachectic conditions is probably via affecting the NPY system. Therefore, serotonin regulation might be a therapeutic target to prevent the development of cancer-induced eating disorders.

Project description:Forkhead BoxO (FoxO) transcription factors expressed in adult skeletal muscle promote muscle atrophy during various catabolic conditions. We have identified the genome wide target genes and biological networks regulated by FoxO in skeletal muscle during Colon-26 (C-26) cancer cachexia. In this dataset, we include the expression data obtained from the tibialis anterior muscles of control and severely cachectic Colon-26 mice in which FoxO-dependent transcription was either intact (AAV9-EV) or inhibited (AAV9-d.n.FoxO). These data were used to obtain 543 FoxO target genes during cancer. These target genes were identified as those genes whose expression was both differentially regulated in skeletal muscle in response to cancer (control AAV9-EV vs. C26 AAV9-EV), and differentially regulated in the presence of d.n.FoxO (C26 AAV9-EV vs. C26 AAV9-d.n.FoxO).

Project description:Appetite is frequently affected in cancer patients, leading to anorexia and consequently insufficient food intake. In this study, we report on hypothalamic gene expression profile of a cancer cachectic mouse model with increased food intake. In this model, mice bearing C26 colon adenocarcinoma have an increased food intake subsequently to the loss of body weight. We hypothesize that in this model, appetite regulating systems in the hypothalamus, which apparently fail in anorexia, are still able to adapt adequately to changes in energy balance. Therefore studying the changes that occur on appetite regulators in the hypothalamus might reveal targets for treatment of cancer-induced eating disorders. By applying transcriptomics, many appetite regulating systems in the hypothalamus could be taken into account, providing an overview of changes that occur in the hypothalamus during tumour growth. We show that hypothalamic expression of orexigenic neuropeptides NPY and AgRP was higher, whereas expression of anorexigenic genes CCK and POMC were lower in TB compared to controls. In addition, serotonin and dopamine signalling pathways were found to be significantly altered in TB mice. Serotonin levels in brain showed to be lower in TB mice compared to control mice, while dopamine levels did not change. Moreover, serotonin levels inversely correlated with food intake. Transcriptomic analysis of the hypothalamus of cachectic TB mice with an increased food intake showed changes in NPY, AgRP and serotonin signalling. Serotonin levels in the brain showed to correlate with changes in food intake. Targeting these systems seems a promising strategy to avoid the development of cancer-induced eating disorders. C26-colon adenocarcinoma cells were subcutaneously inoculated in CDF1 mice. After 20 days, hypothalami were dissected and subjected to gene expression profiling. The total dataset consists of 2 parts; dataset 1, a pilot stuy in which mice were injected with increasing number of tumour cells and pooled samples were arrayed; and dataset 2, the main study in which mice were injected with 1 million tumour cells and samples were individually arrayed.
