Dynamic profiling of intra- and extra-cellular L/D-amino acids metabolism in colorectal cell and intestinal epithelial cell
The metabolism process of amino acids is closely related to the growth of normal and cancer cells. It is still not clear how L/D-configuration amino acids participate in the metabolism of colorectal cell. Herein, intra- and extra-cellular metabolic distribution of L/D-amino acids in colorectal cell (HCT116) and human normal intestinal epithelial cell (NCM460) were profiled utilizing HPLC-MS/MS coupled with a chiral probe. The results displayed the differential metabolic portrayal for the two cell lines. Compared with NCM460 cell, 13 kinds of significant differential amino acids were founded in a lower concentration within HCT116 cell, and L-Gln was even not detected for intra-cell; as for extra-cell culture medium, the HCT116 cell consumed more L-Gln, D-Phe and D-Leu, while L-Met was low ingested in HCT116 cell. L-Ala and Gly were excretion in both two cell lines, excepted L-Cit which was uptake in HCT116 and excretion in NCM460 cell. Furthermore, the dynamic changes of chiral amino acids displayed that phenylalanine, tyrosine and tryptophan biosynthesis and arginine biosynthesis is the major pathway for intra-cellular metabolites and extra-cellular metabolites, respectively. Moreover, with additional D-amino acids in culture medium, the results exhibited that high concentration of D-amino acids have no significant effect on the proliferation of NCM460 cell, but could influence the profiling of amino acids metabolites, and further affect the proliferation of HCT116 cell. This present work enhances the understanding of these differential amino acids metabolic network and depicts a dynamic process of metabolic dysregulation of HCT116 and NCM460 cell.
