摘要：

Dietary acrylamide, a thermally induced food contaminant, at a level (2 mg/kg diet) typifying higher occurrence in certain food products - is neither an independent carcinogen nor a tumor promoter in the colon. This is evidenced by our previous studies using the medium-term azoxymethane (AOM)-induced colon tumorigenesis assay in F344 rats and the human colon tumor xenograft model in athymic nude (nu/nu) mice (https://doi.org/10.1371/journal.pone.0073916) [1]. In addition, we found that acrylamide may act as a colon co-carcinogen in association with a known carcinogen (AOM) in F344 rats. Furthermore, exposure to acrylamide at 2 mg/kg in the diet was not associated with any toxicologically relevant changes in clinical biochemistry, hematology, and apical endpoints in healthy rats (exposed only to saline injections) (https://doi.org/10.1016/j.toxrep.2016.08.010) [2]. Here we report data from our previous investigation [1] on gene expression of cancer pathway targets as well as the methylation status of select tumor suppressor genes. Briefly, mRNA and DNA were extracted from (a) colon mucosae and tumors from F344 rats exposed to AOM or saline and (b) athymic nude (nu/nu) mice bearing human colon tumor xenografts, both exposed to dietary acrylamide at concentrations of 0 or 2 mg/kg diet for 20 and 4 weeks, respectively. RT2 Profiler PCR Cancer PathwayFinder Arrays (Qiagen) and EpiTect Methyl II DNA Restriction kits and PCR Assays (Qiagen) were used to detect cancer-relevant gene expression (84 genes representing 9 pathways) and the methylation status of the CpG islands associated with 22 tumor suppressor genes in colon mucosae, tumors and xenografts. Additionally, RT2 Profiler PCR Arrays (Qiagen) for cell cycle regulation, growth factors, inflammatory cytokines and receptors, and inflammatory response and autoimmunity were used to investigate the gene expression (84 genes in each array) of targets involved in these select cellular pathways in the colon mucosae from AOM-treated F344 rats.
