Abstract
BACKGROUND & AIMS Hepatitis B virus (HBV) reactivation is a major problem that must be overcome during chemotherapy for HBV-related hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC). However, the mechanism underlying chemotherapy-associated HBV reactivation is still not fully understood, hindering the development of improved HBV-related HCC treatments. METHODS A meta-analysis was performed to assess the HBV reactivation risk during transcatheter arterial chemoembolization (TACE). To investigate the regulatory effects and mechanisms of 5-FU on HBV replication, an HBV mouse model was established by pAAV-HBV1.2 hydrodynamic injection followed by intraperitoneal 5-FU injection, and different in vitro models (HepG2.2.15 or Huh7 cells) were established. Realtime RT‒qPCR, western blotting, luciferase assays, and immunofluorescence were used to determine viral parameters. We also explored the underlying mechanisms by RNA-seq, oxidative stress evaluation and autophagy assessment. RESULTS The pooled estimated rate of HBV reactivation in patients receiving TACE was 30.3 % (95 % CI, 23.1%-37.4 %). 5-FU, which is a chemotherapeutic agent commonly used in TACE, promoted HBV replication in vitro and in vivo. Mechanistically, 5-FU treatment obviously increased autophagosome formation, as shown by increased LC3-II levels. Additionally, 5-FU impaired autophagic degradation, as shown by marked p62 and mCherry-GFP-LC3 upregulation, ultimately promoting HBV replication and secretion. Autophagy inhibition by 3-methyladenine or chloroquine significantly altered 5-FU-induced HBV replication. Furthermore, 5-FU-induced autophagy and HBV replication were markedly attenuated with a reactive oxygen species (ROS) scavenger. CONCLUSIONS Together, our results indicate that ROS-induced autophagosome formation and autophagic degradation play a critical role in 5-FU-induced HBV reactivation.

[PMID: 38069040 PMCID: PMC10706732 DOI: 10.3390/ijms242316711] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 06/05/2023] [Revised: 10/24/2023] [Accepted: 10/29/2023] [Indexed: 12/18/2023] Open
Abstract
Our previous study showed that not only bovine lactoferrin (LF), the protein of milk and neutrophils, but also the human species forms complexes with oleic acid (OA) that inhibit tumor growth. Repeated injections of human LF in complex with OA (LF/8OA) to hepatoma-carrying mice decelerated tumor growth and increased animals' longevity. However, whether the effect of the LF/8OA complex is directed exclusively against malignant cells was not studied. Hence, its effect on normal blood cells was assayed, along with its possible modulation of ceruloplasmin (CP), the preferred partner of LF among plasma proteins. The complex LF/8OA (6 μM) caused hemolysis, unlike LF alone or BSA/8OA (250 μM). The activation of neutrophils with exocytosis of myeloperoxidase (MPO), a potent oxidant, was induced by 1 μM LF/8OA, whereas BSA/8OA had a similar effect at a concentration increased by an order. The egress of heme-containing proteins, i.e., MPO and hemoglobin, from blood cells affected by LF/8OA was followed by a pronounced oxidative/halogenating stress. CP, which is the natural inhibitor of MPO, added at a concentration of 2 mol per 1 mol of LF/8OA abrogated its cytotoxic effect. It seems likely that CP can be used effectively in regulating the LF/8OA complex's antitumor activity.
