A low carbohydrate diet high in fish oil and soy protein delays inflammation, hematopoietic stem cell depletion, and mortality in miR-146a knock-out mice.

ABSTRACT: Since our previous studies found a low carbohydrate (CHO) diet containing soy protein and fish oil (15%Amylose/Soy/FO) significantly reduced lung and breast cancer in mice we asked herein if this low CHO diet could also delay the onset of myeloid malignancies. To test this we employed a miR-146a knock-out (KO) mouse model and found the 15%Amylose/Soy/FO diet increased their median lifespan by 8.5 month, compared to these mice on a Western diet. This was associated with increased lymphocytes and reduced monocytes, granulocytes, blood glucose and insulin levels. Inflammatory cytokine/chemokine studies carried out with 6-month-old mice, before any signs of illness, revealed the 15%Amylose/Soy/FO diet significantly reduced pro-inflammatory cytokines. This low CHO diet also led to an increase in plasma β-hydroxybutyrate and in liver fatty acid synthase levels. This, together with higher liver carnitine palmitoyltransferase I levels suggested that the 15%Amylose/Soy/FO diet was causing a systemic metabolic shift from glucose to fatty acids as an energy source. Lastly, we found the 15%Amylose/Soy/FO diet resulted in significantly higher numbers of primitive hematopoietic stem cells (HSCs) in the bone marrow of 6-month-old mice than those fed a Western diet. Taken together, these results suggest a 15%Amylose/Soy/FO diet reduces chronic inflammation and increases fatty acid oxidation and that this, in turn, may prevent HSC proliferation and exhaustion, thereby delaying myeloid malignancy-induced death of miR-146a KO mice. We suggest a low CHO diet containing soy protein and fish oil could be beneficial in reducing the risk of myeloid malignancies in patients with low miR-146a levels.

Project description:ObjectiveCD73 (ecto-5'-nucleotidase, NT5E), a cell-surface enzyme converting 5'-AMP to adenosine, is crucial for cancer progression. However, its role in the tumorigenesis process remains mostly obscure. We aimed to demonstrate CD73's role in breast cancer (BC) tumorigenesis through metabolic rewiring of fatty acid metabolism, a process recently indicated to be regulated by BC major prognostic markers, hormone receptors (HR) for estrogen (ER), and progesterone (PR).MethodsA murine model of chemically induced mammary gland tumorigenesis was applied to analyze CD73 knock-out (KO)-induced changes at the transcriptome (RNA-seq), proteome (IHC, WB), and lipidome (GC-EI-MS) levels. CD73 KO-induced changes were correlated with scRNA-seq and bulk RNA-seq data for human breast tissues and BCs from public collections and confirmed at the proteome level with IHC or WB analysis of BC tissue microarrays and cell lines.ResultsCD73 KO delayed the onset of HR/PR-negative mammary tumors in a murine model. This delay correlated with increased expression of genes related to biosynthesis and β-oxidation of fatty acids (FAs) in the CD73 KO group at the initiation stage. STRING analysis based on RNA-seq data indicated an interplay between CD73 KO, up-regulated expression of PR-coding gene, and DEGs involved in FA metabolism, with PPARγ, a main regulator of FA synthesis, as a main connective node. In epithelial cells of mammary glands, PPARγ expression correlated with CD73 at the RNA level. With cancer progression, CD73 KO increased the levels of PUFAn3/6 (polyunsaturated omega 3/6 FAs), known ligands of PPARγ and target for lipid peroxidation, which may lead to oxidative DNA damage. It correlated with the downregulation of genes involved in cellular stress response (Mlh1, Gsta3), PR-or CD73-dependent changes in the intracellular ROS levels and expression or activation of proteins involved in DNA repair or oxidative stress response in mammary tumor or human BC cell lines, increased tumor mutational burden (TMB) and genomic instability markers in CD73 low HR-negative human BCs, and the prolonged onset of tumors in the CD73 KO HR/PR-negative group.ConclusionsCD73 has a significant role in tumorigenesis driving the reprogramming of lipid metabolism through the regulatory loop with PR and PPARγ in epithelial cells of mammary glands. Low CD73 expression/CD73 KO might enhance mutational burden by disrupting this regulatory loop, delaying the onset of HR-negative tumors. Our results support combining therapy targeting the CD73-adenosine axis and tumor lipidome against HR-negative tumors, especially at their earliest developmental stage.
