BACKGROUND
Metabolic complications are highly prevalent in cancer survivors treated with irradiation but the underlying mechanisms remain unknown.
METHODS
Chow or high fat-fed C57Bl/6J mice were irradiated (6Gy) before investigating the impact on whole-body or skeletal muscle metabolism and profiling their lipidomic signature. Using a transgenic mouse model (Tg:Pax7-nGFP), we isolated muscle progenitor cells (satellite cells) and characterised their metabolic functions. We recruited childhood cancer survivors, grouped them based on the use of total body irradiation during their treatment and established their lipidomic profile.
RESULTS
In mice, irradiation delayed body weight gain and impaired fat pads and muscle weights. These changes were associated with impaired whole-body fat oxidation in chow-fed mice and altered ex vivo skeletal muscle fatty acid oxidation, potentially due to a reduction in oxidative fibres and reduced mitochondrial enzyme activity. Irradiation led to fasting hyperglycaemia and impaired glucose uptake in isolated skeletal muscles. Cultured satellite cells from irradiated mice showed decreased fatty acid oxidation and reduced glucose uptake, recapitulating the host metabolic phenotype. Irradiation resulted in a remodelling of lipid species in skeletal muscles, with the extensor digitorum longus muscle being particularly affected. A large number of lipid species were reduced, with several of these species showing a positive correlation with mitochondrial enzymes activity. In cancer survivors exposed to irradiation, we found a similar decrease in systemic levels of most lipid species, and lipid species that increased were positively correlated with insulin resistance (HOMA-IR).
CONCLUSION
Irradiation leads to long-term alterations in body composition, and lipid and carbohydrate metabolism in skeletal muscle, and affects muscle progenitor cells. Such changes result in persistent impairment of metabolic functions, providing a new mechanism for the increased prevalence of metabolic diseases reported in irradiated individuals. In this context, changes in the lipidomic signature in response to irradiation could be of diagnostic value.
