Abstract Background The Warburg effect demonstrates the importance of glycolysis in the development of primary and metastatic cancers. We aimed to explore the role of monocarboxylate transporter 1 (MCT1) and MCT4, two essential transporters of lactate, in renal cancer progression during cancer-endothelial cell co-culturing. Methods Renal cancer cells (786-O) and human vascular endothelial cells (HUVECs) were single-cultured or co-cultured in transwell membranes in the presence or absence of a MCT-1/MCT-4 specific blocker, 7ACC1. Cell proliferation was evaluated with the CCK-8 kit, while cell migration, after a scratch and invasion in transwell chambers, was evaluated under a microscope. Real-time qPCR and western blot were employed to determine the mRNA and protein levels of MCT1 and MCT4, respectively. The concentration of lactic acid in the culture medium was quantified with an l-Lactic Acid Assay Kit. Results 786-O cells and HUVECs in the co-culturing mode exhibited significantly enhanced proliferation and migration ability, compared with the cells in the single-culturing mode. The expression of MCT1 and MCT4 was increased in both 786-O cells and HUVECs in the co-culturing mode. Co-culturing promoted the invasive ability of 786-O cells, and markedly increased extracellular lactate. Treatments with 7ACC1 attenuated cell proliferation, migration, and invasion, and down-regulated the levels of MCT1/MCT4 expression and extracellular lactate. Conclusions The Warburg effect accompanied with high MCT1/MCT4 expression in the cancer-endothelial microenvironments contributed significantly to renal cancer progression, which sheds new light on targeting MCT1/MCT4 and glycolytic metabolism in order to effectively treat patients with renal cancers. |
