Previous studies have shown that VacA causes cell PR:PROJECT_SUMMARY vacuolation and mitochondrial dysfunction. In this study, we sought to define PR:PROJECT_SUMMARY the cellular metabolic consequences of VacA intoxication. Untargeted metabolomic PR:PROJECT_SUMMARY analyses revealed that several hundred metabolites were significantly altered in PR:PROJECT_SUMMARY VacA-treated gastroduodenal cells (AGS and AZ-521) compared to control cells. PR:PROJECT_SUMMARY Pathway analysis suggested that VacA caused alterations in taurine and PR:PROJECT_SUMMARY hypotaurine metabolism. Treatment of cells with the purified active s1m1 form of PR:PROJECT_SUMMARY VacA, but not hypoactive s2m1 or 6-27 VacA mutant proteins (defective in PR:PROJECT_SUMMARY membrane channel formation), caused reductions in taurine and hypotaurine PR:PROJECT_SUMMARY levels. Supplementation of the tissue culture medium with taurine or hypotaurine PR:PROJECT_SUMMARY protected AZ-521 cells against VacA-induced cell death. Untargeted global PR:PROJECT_SUMMARY metabolomics of AZ-521 cells or AGS cells intoxicated with VacA in the presence PR:PROJECT_SUMMARY or absence of extracellular taurine showed that taurine was the main PR:PROJECT_SUMMARY intracellular metabolite significantly altered by extracellular taurine PR:PROJECT_SUMMARY supplementation. These results indicate that VacA causes alterations in cellular PR:PROJECT_SUMMARY taurine metabolism and indicate that repletion of taurine is sufficient to PR:PROJECT_SUMMARY attenuate VacA-induced cell death.

CO:SAMPLE_TYPE Stomach CO:STORAGE_CONDITIONS -80℃ #TREATMENT TR:TREATMENT_SUMMARY AGS and AZ-521 cells were cultured in T-75 cell culture flasks overnight to a TR:TREATMENT_SUMMARY density of approximately 4x106 cells. Cells were incubated in media containing TR:TREATMENT_SUMMARY 20 ug/mL of purified s1m1 VacA toxin and 5 mM ammonium chloride. Following TR:TREATMENT_SUMMARY intoxication, the media was removed, and cells were washed with PBS. Cells were TR:TREATMENT_SUMMARY detached by incubation with trypsin for 5 minutes and collected via TR:TREATMENT_SUMMARY centrifugation at 4°C at 1,000 rpm for 4 minutes. Trypsin was removed, cells TR:TREATMENT_SUMMARY were once again washed with PBS, and the cells were then flash-frozen in liquid TR:TREATMENT_SUMMARY nitrogen and stored at -70°C. TR:TREATMENT_PROTOCOL_FILENAME Cell_Culture_Methods.pdf #SAMPLEPREP SP:SAMPLEPREP_SUMMARY Samples were analyzed via Liquid Chromatography-High Resolution Mass SP:SAMPLEPREP_SUMMARY Spectrometry (LC-HRMS and LC-HRMS/MS)-based metabolomics using previously SP:SAMPLEPREP_SUMMARY described methods. Briefly, cell pellets were normalized by total protein (200 SP:SAMPLEPREP_SUMMARY ug) and the corresponding cell supernatants were normalized by volume (200 uL). SP:SAMPLEPREP_SUMMARY Metabolites were extracted with methanol/water 80:20. Heavy labeled SP:SAMPLEPREP_SUMMARY phenylalanine-D8 and biotin-D2 were added to individual samples prior to protein SP:SAMPLEPREP_SUMMARY precipitation. Following overnight incubation at -80°C, precipitated proteins SP:SAMPLEPREP_SUMMARY were pelleted by centrifugation at 10,000 rpm for 10 min and metabolite extracts SP:SAMPLEPREP_SUMMARY were transferred into two Eppendorf tubes in equal amounts and dried down in SP:SAMPLEPREP_SUMMARY vacuo and stored at -80°C.
