Extracellular Metabolic Energetics Can Promote Cancer Progression
Open accessAbstract
Colorectal cancer primarily metastasizes to the liver and globally kills over 600,000 people annually. By functionally screening 661 microRNAs (miRNAs) in parallel during liver colonization, we have identified miR-551a and miR-483 as robust endogenous suppressors of liver colonization and metastasis. These miRNAs convergently target creatine kinase, brain-type (CKB), which phosphorylates the metabolite creatine, to generate phosphocreatine. CKB is released into the extracellular space by metastatic cells encountering hepatic hypoxia and catalyzes production of phosphocreatine, which is imported through the SLC6A8 transporter and used to generate ATP—fueling metastatic survival. Combinatorial therapeutic viral delivery of miR-551a and miR-483-5p through single-dose adeno-associated viral (AAV) delivery significantly suppressed colon cancer metastasis, as did CKB inhibition with a small-molecule inhibitor. Importantly, human liver metastases express higher CKB and SLC6A8 levels and reduced miR-551a/miR-483 levels relative to primary tumors. We identify the extracellular space as an important compartment for malignant energetic catalysis and therapeutic targeting.

Hypoxic colorectal cancer cell lines release CKB into the extracellular space, where it catalyzes production of PCr using extracellular ATP as phosphate source.
“A number of hypoxic colorectal cancer cell lines have been found to release CKB into the extracellular space, where it catalyzed the production of PCr using extracellular ATP as the phosphate source [60].”

The Results section on extracellular CKB reports release from metastatic LvM3b colorectal cancer cells and evidence that CKB uses extracellular ATP to produce phosphocreatine. The Discussion also states this mechanism directly. The cited passages do not establish CKB release from a number of cell lines specifically while they were hypoxic; hypoxia is examined separately as a challenge to cancer-cell survival. (LLM, conf=0.82)
Experimental — accuracy not yet measuredPCr is imported into cancer cells via SLC6A8 and generates ATP, enabling metastatic cancer cells to sustain energetic requirements despite hypoxic O2 levels in normal liver.
“This PCr was then imported into the cancer cells via SLC6A8 and generated ATP, thus enabling metastatic cancer cells to sustain their energetic requirements despite the physiologically hypoxic O2 levels in the normal liver [60].”

Mice inoculated with colorectal cancer cells and treated with cyclocreatine showed significant reduction in liver metastases.
“The in vivo importance of this mechanism was demonstrated when mice inoculated with colorectal cancer cells and treated with cyclocreatine, an inhibitor of creatine metabolism, showed significant reduction in liver metastases [60].”

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
