    Abstract Butyrate helps to maintain colon homeostasis and exhibits chemopreventive effects in colon epithelium. We examined the interactive effects of butyrate and benzo[a]pyrene (BaP), dietary carcinogen, in regulation of expression of a panel of phase I and II xenobiotic metabolizing enzymes (XMEs) in human colon cells. In human colon carcinoma HCT-116 and HT-29 cell lines, butyrate alone increased mRNA levels of some enzymes, such as N-acetyltransferases (in particular NAT2). In combination with BaP, butyrate potentiated induction of cytochrome P450 family 1 enzymes (CYP1A1), aldo-keto reductases (AKR1C1) or UDP-glucuronosyltransferases (UGT1A1). There were some notable differences between cell lines, as butyrate potentiated induction of NAD(P)H:quinone oxidoreductase 1 (NQO1) and UGT1A4 only in HCT-116 cells, and it even repressed AKR1C3 induction in HT-29 cells. Butyrate also promoted induction of CYP1, NQO1, NAT2, UGT1A1 or UGT1A4 in human colon Caco-2 cells, in a differentiation-dependent manner. Differentiated Caco-2 cells exhibited a higher inducibility of selected XME genes than undifferentiated cells. Butyrate increased induction of enzymatic activities of NATs, NQO1 and UGTs by BaP in HCT-116 and HT29 cells, whereas in differentiated Caco-2 cells it helped to increase only enzymatic activity of NQO1 and UGTs. Together, the present data suggest that butyrate may modulate expression/activities of several enzymes involved in metabolism of carcinogens in colon. In some cases (NAT2, UGT1 A1), this was linked to inhibition of histone deacetylases (HDAC), as confirmed by using HDAC inhibitor trichostatin A. These results may have implications for our understanding of the role of butyrate in regulation of XMEs and carcinogen metabolism in colon.

    Abstract The development and progression of colorectal cancer (CRC), a major cause of cancer-related death in the western world, is accompanied with alterations of sphingolipid (SL) composition in colon tumors. A number of enzymes involved in the SL metabolism have been found to be deregulated in human colon tumors, in experimental rodent studies, and in human colon cancer cells in vitro. Therefore, the enzymatic pathways that modulate SL levels have received a significant attention, due to their possible contribution to CRC development, or as potential therapeutic targets. Many of these enzymes are associated with an increased sphingosine-1-phosphate/ceramide ratio, which is in turn linked with increased colon cancer cell survival, proliferation and cancer progression. Nevertheless, more attention should also be paid to the more complex SLs, including specific glycosphingolipids, such as lactosylceramides, which can be also deregulated during CRC development. In this review, we focus on the potential roles of individual SLs/SL metabolism enzymes in colon cancer, as well as on the pros and cons of employing the current in vitro models of colon cancer cells for lipidomic studies investigating the SL metabolism in CRC.

    Abstract The short-chain and n-3 polyunsaturated fatty acids exhibit anticancer properties, and they may mutually interact within the colon. However, the molecular mechanisms of their action in colon cancer cells are still not fully understood. Our study focused on the mechanisms responsible for the diverse effects of sodium butyrate (NaBt), in particular when interacting with docosahexaenoic acid (DHA), in distinct colon cancer cell types, in which NaBt either induces cell differentiation or activates programmed cell death involving mitochondrial pathway. NaBt activated autophagy both in HT-29 cells, which are sensitive to induction of differentiation, and in nondifferentiating HCT-116 cells. However, autophagy supported cell survival only in HT-29 cells. Combination of NaBt with DHA-promoted cell death, especially in HCT-116 cells and after longer time intervals. The inhibition of autophagy both attenuated differentiation and enhanced apoptosis in HT-29 cells treated with NaBt and DHA, but it had no effect in HCT-116 cells. NaBt, especially in combination with DHA, activated PPARγ in both cell types. PPARγ silencing decreased differentiation and increased apoptosis only in HT-29 cells, therefore we verified the role of caspases in apoptosis, differentiation and also PPARγ activity using a pan-caspase inhibitor. In summary, our data suggest that diverse responses of colon cancer cells to fatty acids may rely on their sensitivity to differentiation, which may in turn depend on distinct engagement of autophagy, caspases and PPARγ. These results contribute to understanding of mechanisms underlying differential effects of NaBt, when interacting with other dietary fatty acids, in colon cancer cells.

    Abstract Dietary carcinogens, such as benzo[a]pyrene (BaP), are suspected to contribute to colorectal cancer development. n-3 Polyunsaturated fatty acids (PUFAs) decrease colorectal cancer risk in individuals consuming diets rich in PUFAs. Here, we investigated the impact of eicosapentaenoic (EPA) and docosahexaenoic (DHA) acid on metabolism and genotoxicity of BaP in human cell models derived from the colon: HT-29 and HCT-116 cell lines. Both PUFAs reduced levels of excreted BaP metabolites, in particular BaP-tetrols and hydroxylated BaP metabolites, as well as formation of DNA adducts in HT-29 and HCT-116 cells. However, EPA appeared to be a more potent inhibitor of formation of some intracellular BaP metabolites, including BaP-7,8-dihydrodiol. EPA also reduced phosphorylation of histone H2AX (Ser139) in HT-29 cells, which indicated that it may reduce further forms of DNA damage, including DNA double strand breaks. Both PUFAs inhibited induction of CYP1 activity in colon cells determined as 7-ethoxyresorufin-O-deethylase (EROD); this was at least partly linked with inhibition of induction of CYP1A1, 1A2 and 1B1 mRNAs. The downregulation and/or inhibition of CYP1 enzymes by PUFAs could thus alter metabolism and reduce genotoxicity of BaP in human colon cells, which might contribute to known chemopreventive effects of PUFAs in colon epithelium.

    Abstract Docosahexaenoic acid (DHA) and sodium butyrate (NaBt) exhibit a number of interactive effects on colon cancer cell growth, differentiation, or apoptosis; however, the molecular mechanisms responsible for these interactions and their impact on cellular lipidome are still not fully clear. Here, we show that both dietary agents together induce dynamic alterations of lipid metabolism, specific cellular lipid classes, and fatty acid composition. In HT-29 cell line, a model of differentiating colon carcinoma cells, NaBt supported incorporation of free DHA into non-polar lipids and their accumulation in cytoplasmic lipid droplets. DHA itself was not incorporated into sphingolipids; however, it significantly altered representation of individual ceramide (Cer) classes, in particular in combination with NaBt (DHA/NaBt). We observed altered expression of enzymes involved in Cer metabolism in cells treated with NaBt or DHA/NaBt, and exogenous Cer 16:0 was found to promote induction of apoptosis in differentiating HT-29 cells. NaBt, together with DHA, increased n-3 fatty acid synthesis and attenuated metabolism of monounsaturated fatty acids. Finally, DHA and/or NaBt altered expression of proteins involved in synthesis of fatty acids, including elongase 5, stearoyl CoA desaturase 1, or fatty acid synthase, with NaBt increasing expression of caveolin-1 and CD36 transporter, which may further promote DHA incorporation and its impact on cellular lipidome. In conclusion, our results indicate that interactions of DHA and NaBt exert complex changes in cellular lipidome, which may contribute to the alterations of colon cancer cell differentiation/apoptotic responses. The present data extend our knowledge about the nature of interactive effects of dietary fatty acids.

    Abstract In the present study, we investigated the effects of potential endogenous ligand indirubin on the aryl hydrocarbon receptor (AhR) signalling, with a focus on the AhR-dependent gene expression and cell cycle progression in rat liver progenitor cells, and compared them with the effects of a model toxic AhR ligand, 2,3,7,8-tetrachlorodibenzo-p-dioxin (TCDD). The low (picomolar and nanomolar) doses of indirubin, corresponding to expected endogenous levels, induced a transient translocation of AhR to the nucleus, while high (micromolar) doses induced a long-term AhR nuclear translocation, followed by its degradation, similar to the effects of TCDD. Whereas high doses of indirubin recruited AhR/ARNT1 dimer to rat Cyp1a1 promoter, the low doses did not induce its DNA binding, as revealed by the chromatin immunoprecipitation assay. This corresponded with the fact that the micromolar doses of indirubin significantly increased Cyp1a1/1b1 mRNA in a way similar to TCDD, while the low doses of indirubin were only poor inducers of Cyp1a1/1b1 expression. Comparable patterns of expression were observed also for other AhR gene targets, such as Nqo1 and Nrf2. Also, only micromolar doses of indirubin were able to mimic the effects of TCDD on cell cycle and proliferation of liver progenitor cells or hepatoma cells. Nevertheless, indirubin at low concentrations may have unique effects on gene expression in non-tumorigenic cells. Although both TCDD and the high doses of indirubin repressed plakoglobin (Jup) expression, the picomolar doses of indirubin, unlike the equimolar doses of TCDD, increased mRNA levels of this important desmosomal and adherens junctions constituent. These present data suggest that the outcome of AhR activation induced by indirubin at concentrations expected in vivo may differ from the AhR signalling triggered by exogenous toxic ligands, such as TCDD.

    Abstract Although Chk1 kinase inhibitors are currently under clinical investigation as effective cancer cell sensitizers to the cytotoxic effects of numerous chemotherapeutics, there is still a considerable uncertainty regarding their role in modulation of anticancer potential of platinum-based drugs. Here we newly demonstrate the ability of one of the most specific Chk1 inhibitors, SCH900776 (MK-8776), to enhance human colon cancer cell sensitivity to the cytotoxic effects of platinum(II) cisplatin and platinum(IV)- LA-12 complexes. The combined treatment with SCH900776 and cisplatin or LA-12 results in apparent increase in G1/S phase-related apoptosis, stimulation of mitotic slippage, and senescence of HCT116 cells. We further show that the cancer cell response to the drug combinations is significantly affected by the p21, p53, and PTEN status. In contrast to their wt counterparts, the p53- or p21-deficient cells treated with SCH900776 and cisplatin or LA-12 enter mitosis and become polyploid, and the senescence phenotype is strongly suppressed. While the cell death induced by SCH900776 and cisplatin or LA-12 is significantly delayed in the absence of p53, the anticancer action of the drug combinations is significantly accelerated in p21-deficient cells, which is associated with stimulation of apoptosis beyond G2/M cell cycle phase. We also show that cooperative killing action of the drug combinations in HCT116 cells is facilitated in the absence of PTEN. Our results indicate that SCH900776 may act as an important modulator of cytotoxic response triggered by platinum-based drugs in colon cancer cells.
