Untargeted metabolomics unveil alterations of biomembranes permeability in human HaCaT keratinocytes upon 60 GHz millimeter-wave exposure

ABSTRACT: A joint metabolomic and lipidomic workflow is used to account for a potential effect of millimeter waves (MMW) around 60 GHz on biological tissues. For this purpose, HaCaT human keratinocytes were exposed at 60.4 GHz with an incident power density of 20 mW/square cm, this value corresponding to the upper local exposure limit for general public in the context of a wide scale deployment of MMW technologies and devices. After a 24h-exposure, endo- and extracellular extracts were recovered to be submitted to an integrative UPLC-Q-Exactive metabolomic and lipidomic workflow. R-XCMS data processing and subsequent statistical treatment led to emphasize a limited number of altered features in lipidomic sequences and in intracellular metabolomic analyses, whatever the ionization mode (i.e 0 to 6 dysregulated features). Conversely, important dysregulations could be reported in extracellular metabolomic profiles with 111 and 99 frames being altered upon MMW exposure in positive and negative polarities, respectively. This unexpected extent of modifications can hardly stem from the mild changes that could be reported throughout transcriptomics studies, leading us to hypothesize that MMW might alter the permeability of cell membranes, as reported elsewhere.

Project description:The emergence of multidrug resistant tuberculosis and the increasing level of resistance urges the search for alternative drugs in treatment. Several neuroleptics, like thioridazine, reveal activity against Mycobacterium tuberculosis. Thioridazine was even successfully applied in compassionate therapy of extensively drug resistant tuberculosis in patients when added to other second and third line antibiotics. The synergistic effects between thioridazine and other anti-tuberculosis drugs is usually assigned to the inhibition of efflux pumps by thioridazine. Using an unbiased proteomic approach, we set out to unravel the molecular mechanism of this potential new anti-tuberculosis component by examining the impact of continuous thioridazine exposure on the proteome of M. tuberculosis. We discovered that under the influence of thioridazine several proteins involved in the maintenance of the cell wall permeability barrier are differentially regulated, while none of the known mycobacterial efflux pumps was differentially regulated on the protein level. By assessing accumulation of fluorescent dyes in M. tuberculosis over time, we demonstrated that long-term drug exposure of M. tuberculosis indeed affected the mycobacterial cell envelope and increased the permeability towards both hydrophilic and hydrophobic compounds. Furthermore, we demonstrated that treatment of M. tuberculosis with thioridazine altered the composition of the plasma membrane. Thioridazine induced an increase in cell envelope permeability, and thereby the enhanced uptake of compounds, this could explain the previously reported synergistic effects between thioridazine and other anti-tuberculosis drugs. Although the hypothesis of higher intercellular drug concentrations by THZ has not changed in this study, the more exact knowledge on its mode of action is a major step forward. This new insight in the molecular mechanism of this anti-tuberculosis compound could facilitate further development of this class of drugs for application in drug therapy of multidrug resistant tuberculosis. In fact, the efficacy of many existing drugs could be improved significantly.
