Project description:Cancer cachexia is a prevalent and often fatal wasting condition that cannot be fully reversed with nutritional interventions. Muscle atrophy is a central component of the syndrome, but the mechanisms whereby cancer leads to skeletal muscle atrophy are not well understood. We performed single nucleus multi-omics on skeletal muscles from a mouse model of cancer cachexia and profiled the molecular changes in cachexic muscle. Our results revealed the activation of a denervation-induced gene program that upregulates the transcription factor myogenin. Further studies showed that a myogenin-myostatin pathway promotes muscle atrophy in response to cancer cachexia. shRNA inhibition of myogenin or inhibition of myostatin through overexpression of its endogenous inhibitor follistatin prevented cancer cachexia-induced muscle atrophy in mice. Our findings uncover a molecular basis of cancer cachexia-induced muscle atrophy and highlight potential therapeutic targets for this disorder.

Project description:The essential amino acid methionine plays a pivotal role in one-carbon metabolism, facilitating the production of S-adenosylmethionine (SAMe), a critical supplier for DNA methylation. Here we find the disruption of methionine metabolism by rapid SAMe depletion in skeletal muscle in cancer cachexia, leading to endoplasmic reticulum (ER) stress and the overexpression of regulated in development and DNA damage responses (REDD1). Targeting the DNA methylation process via DNA methyltransferases (DNMTs) and REDD1 knockout can alleviate cancer cachexia-induced skeletal muscle atrophy. Methionine supplementation maintains the DNA methylation of DNA damage-inducible transcript 4 (Ddit4) by DNMT3A, thereby inhibiting activating transcription factor 4 (ATF4)-mediated Ddit4 transcription. Our study suggests that methionine or SAMe supplementation can effectively reverse muscle atrophy in cancer cachexia, providing valuable mechanistic insights and a promising therapeutic strategy for clinical application.

Project description:Background Loss of skeletal muscle mass in advanced cancer is recognized as an independent predictor of mortality. Mechanisms involved in this wasting process and parameters for early diagnosis are still lacking. As skeletal muscle is considered as a secretory organ, the aim of this present experimental work was to characterize the changes in muscle proteome and secretome associated with cancer-induced cachexia to better understand cellular mechanisms involved in this wasting process and to identify secreted proteins which might reflect the ongoing muscle atrophy process. Methods We investigated first the changes in the muscle proteome associated with cancer-induced cachexia by using differential label-free proteomic analysis on muscle of the C26 mouse model. The differentially abundant proteins were submitted to sequential bioinformatic secretomic analysis in order to identify potentially secreted proteins. Selected reaction monitoring and Western blotting were used to verify the presence of candidate proteins at the circulating level. Their muscle source was demonstrated by assessing their gene expression in skeletal muscle and in cultured myotubes. Finally, we also investigated their regulation in muscle cells. Alterations in several molecular pathways potentially involved in muscle atrophy were highlighted using Gene ontology enrichment analyses. Results Our results revealed a dramatic increased production (2-to 25-fold) by the muscle of several acute phase reactants (APR: Haptoglobin, Serpina3n, Complement C3, Serum amyloid A1) which are also released in the circulation during C26 cancer cachexia. Their production was confirmed in other preclinical models of cancer cachexia as well as in cancer patients. The muscular origin of these APR was demonstrated by their increased expression in skeletal muscle and myotubes. Glucocorticoids and pro-inflammatory cytokines contribute directly to their increased expression in muscle cells in vitro, while the role of IL-6 in the muscular induction of these APR was demonstrated in vivo. Conclusions Cancer is associated with marked changes in muscle secretome during muscle wasting. Our study demonstrates a marked increased production of APR by skeletal muscle in pre-clinical models of cancer cachexia and in cancer patients. Further studies are required to unravel the potential role of these proteins in muscle atrophy and their interest as biomarkers of cancer cachexia.

Project description:Skeletal muscle atrophy is a serious and highly prevalent condition that remains poorly understood at the molecular level. Previous work found that skeletal muscle atrophy involves an increase in skeletal muscle Gadd45a expression, which is necessary and sufficient for skeletal muscle fiber atrophy. However, the direct mechanism by which Gadd45a promotes skeletal muscle atrophy was unknown. To address this question, we biochemically isolated skeletal muscle fiber proteins that associate with Gadd45a as it induces skeletal muscle atrophy in living mice. We found that Gadd45a interacts with multiple proteins in skeletal muscle fibers, including, most prominently, the MAP kinase kinase kinase MEKK4. Furthermore, by forming a complex with MEKK4 in skeletal muscle fibers, Gadd45a increases MEKK4 protein kinase activity, which is sufficient to induce skeletal muscle fiber atrophy and required for Gadd45a-mediated skeletal muscle fiber atrophy. Together, these results identify a direct biochemical mechanism by which Gadd45a induces skeletal muscle atrophy and provide new insight into way that skeletal muscle atrophy occurs at the molecular level.

Project description:Cancer cachexia is a devastating metabolic syndrome characterized by systemic inflammation and massive muscle and adipose tissue wasting. Although cancer cachexia is responsible for approximately one third of cancer deaths, no effective therapies are available and the underlying mechanisms have not been fully elucidated.We have found that (+)-JQ1 administration protects tumor-bearing mice from body weight loss, muscle and adipose tissue wasting. Remarkably, in C26-tumor bearing mice (+)-JQ1 administration dramatically prolongs survival, without directly affecting tumor growth. By ChIP-seq analyses, we unveil that the BET proteins directly promote the muscle atrophy program during cachexia. Consistently, BET pharmacological blockade prevents the activation of catabolic genes associated with skeletal muscle atrophy and decreases IL6 systemic levels. Overall, these findings indicate that BET may represent a promising therapeutic target in the management of cancer cachexia.

Project description:Background. Pancreatic Ductal AdenoCarcinoma (PDAC), the most frequent pancreatic cancer, is a deadly cancer since often diagnosed late and resistant to current therapies. A high proportion of PDAC patients are affected by cachexia induced by the tumor. This cachexia, characterized by loss of muscle mass and strength, contributes to patient frailty and poor therapeutic response. We showed that mitochondrial metabolism is reprogrammed in PDAC tumor cell and constitutes a vulnerability, opening novel therapeutic avenues. The objective of the present work was to investigate the molecular mechanisms underlying mitochondrial remodeling in PDAC cachectic skeletal muscle. Methods. Our study focused on the gastrocnemius muscle of genetically-engineered mice developing spontaneously a PDAC associated with cachexia (KIC GEMM). We compared KIC mice developing a pancreatic tumor in 9-10 weeks to control littermates. We did an integrative study combining in vivo functional analyses by non-invasive Magnetic Resonance, and ex-vivo histology, Seahorse, RNA-sequencing, and proteomic mass spectrometry and western blotting analyses. Results. The cachectic KIC PDAC mice show a severe sarcopenia with loss of muscle mass and strength associated with a diminution in muscle fiber’s size and induction of protein degradation processes. Mitochondria in PDAC atrophic muscles show decreased respiratory capacities and structural alterations (“hyperfused” mitochondria), associated with deregulation of oxidative phosphorylation and mitochondrial dynamics pathways at the molecular level. Increased expression of multiple reactive oxygen species (ROS) defense genes suggests oxidative stress prone to affect mitochondrial macromolecules and homeostasis. Interestingly, multiple genes and proteins involved in DNA metabolism pathways, such as DNA damage, degradation of DNA, nucleotide synthesis, and folate pathway were found altered in sarcopenic mitochondria. While the number of mitochondria was not changed, the mitochondrial mass was decreased by a factor of 2 and the mitochondrial DNA by a factor of 3, suggesting a defect in mitochondrial genome homeostasis. Conclusions. We unveiled that mitochondrial alterations in skeletal muscle play a central role in PDAC-induced cachexia. Muscle atrophy is associated with strong mitochondrial metabolic defects that are not limited to carbohydrates and protein, but concern also lipids, ROS and nucleic acids. Our data provide a frame to guide towards the most relevant molecular markers that would be affected at the start of tumor development and could be targets in the clinic to limit PDAC-induced cachexia at early stages of the pathology.
