    Abstract: The mammalian target of rapamycin (mTOR) is a serine/threonine kinase that regulates cell growth via mTOR complex 1 (mTORC1), whose activation has been implicated in many human cancers. However, mTORC1's status in gastrointestinal tumors has not been characterized thoroughly. We have found that the mTORC1 pathway is activated with increased expression of the mTOR protein in intestinal polyps of the Apc Δ716 heterozygous mutant mouse, a model for human familial adenomatous polyposis. An 8-week treatment with RAD001 (everolimus) suppressed the mTORC1 activity in these polyps and inhibited proliferation of the adenoma cells as well as tumor angiogenesis, which significantly reduced not only the number of polyps but also their size. β-Catenin knockdown in the colon cancer cell lines reduced the mTOR level and thereby inhibited the mTORC1 signaling. These results suggest that the Wnt signaling contributes to mTORC1 activation through the increased level of mTOR and that the activation plays important roles in the intestinal polyp formation and growth. Indeed, long-term RAD001 treatment significantly reduced mortality of the Apc Δ716 mice. Thus, we propose that the mTOR inhibitors may be efficacious for therapy and prevention of colonic adenomas and cancers with Wnt signaling activation.

    Global metabolic reprogramming of colorectal cancer occurs at adenoma stage and is induced by MYC

    Abstract: Cancer cells alter their metabolism for the production of precursors of macromolecules. However, the control mechanisms underlying this reprogramming are poorly understood. Here we show that metabolic reprogramming of colorectal cancer is caused chiefly by aberrant MYC expression. Multiomics-based analyses of paired normal and tumor tissues from 275 patients with colorectal cancer revealed that metabolic alterations occur at the adenoma stage of carcinogenesis, in a manner not associated with specific gene mutations involved in colorectal carcinogenesis. MYC expression induced at least 215 metabolic reactions by changing the expression levels of 121 metabolic genes and 39 transporter genes. Further, MYC negatively regulated the expression of genes involved in mitochondrial biogenesis and maintenance but positively regulated genes involved in DNA and histone methylation. Knockdown of MYC in colorectal cancer cells reset the altered metabolism and suppressed cell growth. Moreover, inhibition of MYC target pyrimidine synthesis genes such as CAD , UMPS , and CTPS blocked cell growth, and thus are potential targets for colorectal cancer therapy.

    Inactivation of chemokine (C-C motif) receptor 1 (CCR1) suppresses colon cancer liver metastasis by blocking accumulation of immature myeloid cells in a mouse model

    Abstract: Recent reports have suggested critical roles of myeloid cells in tumor invasion and metastasis, although these findings have not led to therapeutics. Using a mouse model for liver dissemination, we show that mouse and human colon cancer cells secrete CC-chemokine ligands CCL9 and CCL15, respectively, and recruit CD34 + Gr-1 − immature myeloid cells (iMCs). They express CCL9/15 receptor CCR1 and produce matrix metalloproteinases MMP2 and MMP9. Lack of the Ccr1 , Mmp2 , or Mmp9 gene in the host dramatically suppresses outgrowths of disseminated tumors in the liver. Importantly, CCR1 antagonist BL5923 blocks the iMC accumulation and metastatic colonization and significantly prolongs the survival of tumor-bearing mice. These results suggest that CCR1 antagonists can provide antimetastatic therapies for patients with disseminated colon cancer in the liver.
