Project description:Cancer cachexia is a debilitating metabolic disorder characterized by involuntary loss of body and muscle mass, leading to increased morbidity and mortality. We previously found that Forkhead box P1 (FoxP1) upregulation in skeletal muscle causes muscle wasting and is required for muscle wasting in response to cancer. However, transcriptional networks targeted by FoxP1 in skeletal muscles undergoing cancer-induced wasting remain largely unknown. Here, we identify FoxP1 as a key disruptor of the skeletal muscle clock in response to cancer, that reprograms circadian patterns of gene expression at cachexia onset. Specifically, we show that cancer-induced FoxP1 rewires the skeletal muscle circadian transcriptome towards pathways associated with muscle wasting and disrupts the temporal patterning of pathways governing glucose, lipid, and oxidative metabolism. These findings thus implicate cancer/disease-specific functions of FOXP1 in the disruption and reprograming of the skeletal muscle circadian transcriptome which may contribute to muscle wasting and the development of cachexia.

Project description:Skeletal muscle wasting is a devastating consequence of cancer that affects up to 80% of cancer patients and associates with reduced survival. Herein we identified the transcriptional repressor protein, Forkhead box P1 (FoxP1), as a downstream target gene of FoxO1 whose skeletal muscle expression is elevated in multiple models of cancer cachexia and in patients with cancer who exhibit cachexia. Through generation of inducible skeletal muscle-specific FoxP1 over-expressing (FoxP1iSkmTg/Tg) mice, we demonstrate that FoxP1 upregulation is sufficient to induce features of cachexia, including body and skeletal muscle wasting characterized by reduced muscle fiber cross-sectional area of type IIX/B muscle fibers. Muscles from FoxP1iSkmTg/Tg mice also showed significant muscle damage and myopathy characterized by the accumulation of p62 and cellular material-filled vesicles, the presence of centrally nucleated myofibers, and were significantly weaker than controls. In the context of cancer cachexia, blocking FoxP1 upregulation prevented the cancer-induced repression of target genes critical to muscle structural integrity and repair, including Myocyte enhancer factor 2c (Mef2c), improved muscle ultrastructure and significantly attenuated muscle fiber atrophy. We further show that the muscle wasting phenotype induced by FoxP1 required the activity of histone deacetylase (HDAC) proteins, which are well-established to cooperate with FoxP1 to mediate gene repression, and which were necessary for FoxP1-dependent repression of Mef2c. In summary, we identify FoxP1 as a negative transcriptional regulator of skeletal muscle mass and function, whose up-regulation mediates cancer-induced muscle wasting. We used microarrays to investigate the genome-wide transcriptional networks regulated by the FoxO1 and FoxP1 transcription factors in skeletal muscle of tumor-bearing mice.

Project description:Cachexia is a systemic metabolic syndrome characterized by loss of fat and skeletal muscle mass in chronic wasting diseases such as cancer. The regulation of cellular protein synthesis in response to workload in skeletal muscle is generally blunted in cancer cachexia; however, the precise molecular regulation is largely unknown. In this study, to examine the molecular mechanism of skeletal muscle protein metabolism in cancer cachexia, we analyzed comprehensive gene expression in skeletal muscle using microarrays. CD2F1 mice (male, 7 weeks old) were subcutaneously transplanted (1*10^6 cells per mouse) with a mouse colon cancer-derived cell line (C26) as a model of cancer cachexia. Functional overload of the plantaris muscle by synergist ablation was performed at the 2nd week, and the plantaris muscle was sampled at the 4th week of cancer transplantation. The hypertrophy of skeletal muscle (increased skeletal muscle weight/protein synthesis efficiency and activation of mTOR signaling) associated with compensatory overload was significantly suppressed with the cancer cachexia. Gene expression profiling and pathway analysis by microarray showed that resistance to muscle protein synthesis associated with cancer cachexia was induced by downregulation of insulin-like growth factor-1. These observations show that cancer cachexia induces resistance to muscle protein synthesis, which could be a potential factor inhibiting the adaptation of skeletal muscle growth to physical exercise.

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.
