We investigated gene expressions involved in the glycolytic pathways in colorectal cancer. The study was designed to use gene ontology and its relevant bioinformatics tools to analyze the microarray data obtained from CRC tissues and their corresponding normal tissues, in order to explore the correlation between the glycolytic metabolic pathway and possible pathogenesis of this disease. The overexpression of glycolysis-related genes was observed in over 76% of CRC tissues. In addition, we stimulated the SW480 and SW620 CRC cell lines with 15 mM D-(+)-glucose and 10 mM 2-deoxy-D-glucose respectively. The results indicate that the proliferation response of both the SW480 and SW620 cell lines increased remarkably with a time-dependent effect by D-(+)-glucose administration. In contrast, the proliferation response of both the SW480 and SW620 cell lines was significantly inhibited by 2-DG administration. Likewise, further analyses of the expression of related genes triggered by the D-(+)-glucose in vivo show that the activation process of these eight genes - GLUT1, HK1, GPI, GAPD, PGK1, PGK2, ENO2, PKM2 - prominently increased with a time-dependent effect. In conclusion, this study demonstrates that the glycolytic pathway and glycolysis-related genes may play an important role in the tumorigenesis of CRC, but their molecular mechanisms need further investigation to verify this. |
