Long-term 1,2-dimethylhydrazine triggers pathological remodeling of colon mucosa through repression of sestrin2, nuclear factor (erythroid-derived 2)-like 2, and sirtuin4 stimulating mitochondrial stress and metabolic reprogramming

Description
Summary:1,2-Dimethylhydrazine (DMH) is a plant toxicant that enters the food web through the diet. It is biotransformed into azoxymethane, a colon carcinogen, during the first hepatic passage. In mice, this study assessed the role of glutamate dehydrogenase (GDH), a key glutaminolysis enzyme in DMH-induced colorectal cancer (CRC). Colon samples were taken from mice given 6 or 15 weekly doses of 20 mg/kg DMH and serially sacrificed. Repeated DMH doses induced early aberrant crypt foci that evolved into irreversible adenocarcinomas over 24 weeks, along with an increase in GDH and lactate dehydrogenase activities (+ 122%, + 238%, P
