Popis: International audience; Cancer cells mainly rely on glycolysis for energetic needs, and mitochondrial ATP production is almost inactive. However, cancer cells require the integrity of mitochondrial functions for their survival, such as the maintenance of the internal membrane potential gradient (Delta Psi m). It thus may be predicted that Delta Psi m regeneration should depend on cellular capability to produce sufficient ATP by upregulating glycolysis or recruiting oxidative phosphorylation (OXPHOS). To investigate this hypothesis, we compared the response to an anticancer agent chloroethylnitrosourea (CENU) of two transformed cell lines: HepG2 (hepatocarcinoma) with a partially differentiated phenotype and 143B (osteosarcoma) with an undifferentiated one. These cells types differ by their mitochondrial OXPHOS background; the most severely impaired being that of 143B cells. Treatment effects were tested on cell proliferation, O-2 consumption/ATP production coupling, Delta Psi m maintenance, and global metabolite profiling by NMR spectroscopy. Our results showed an OXPHOS uncoupling and a lowered Delta Psi m, leading to an increased energy request to regenerate Delta Psi m in both models. However, energy request could not be met by undifferentiated cells 14313, which ATP content decreased after 48 h leading to cell death, while partially differentiated cells (HepG2) could activate their oxidative metabolism and escape chemotherapy. We propose that mitochondrial OXPHOS background confers a survival advantage to more differentiated cells in response to chemotherapy. This suggests that the mitochondrial bioenergetic background of tumors should be considered for anticancer treatment personalization.
