RESUMO

Regular exercise is believed to suppress cancer progression. However, the precise molecular mechanisms by which exercise prevents cancer development remain unclear. In this study, using a steatosis-associated liver cancer mouse model, we found that regular exercise at a speed of 18 m/min for 20 min daily suppressed liver cancer development. To explore the underlying mechanisms, we examined the gene expression profiles in the livers of the exercise and non-exercise groups. The expressions of circadian genes, such as Per1 and Cry2, were upregulated in the exercise group. As circadian rhythm disruption is known to cause various diseases, including cancer, improving circadian rhythm through exercise could contribute to cancer prevention. We further found that the expression of a series of E2F1 and c-Myc target genes that directly affect the proliferation of cancer cells was downregulated in the exercise group. However, the expression of E2F1 and c-Myc was transcriptionally unchanged but degraded at the post-translational level by exercise. Cry2, which is regulated by the Skp1-Cul1-FBXL3 (SCFFBXL3) ubiquitin ligase complex by binding to FBXL3, can form a complex with E2F1 and c-Myc, which we think is the mechanism to degrade them. Our study revealed a previously unknown mechanism by which exercise prevents cancer development.

RESUMO

The incidence of oral cancer has recently been increasing worldwide, particularly among young individuals and women. The primary risk factors for head and neck cancers, including oral and pharyngeal cancers, are smoking, alcohol consumption, poor oral hygiene, and repeated exposure to mechanical stimuli. However, approximately one-third of the patients with oral and pharyngeal cancers are neither smokers nor drinkers, which points to the existence of other mechanisms. Recently, human microbes have been linked to various diseases, including cancer. Oral pathogens, especially periodontal pathobionts, are reported to play a role in the development of colon and other types of cancer. In this study, we employed a series of bioinformatics analyses to pinpoint Fusobacterium nucleatum as the predominant oral bacterial species in oral and pharyngeal cancer tissue samples. We successfully isolated Fn. polymorphum from the saliva of patients with oral cancer and demonstrated that Fn. polymorphum indeed promoted oral squamous cell carcinoma development by activating YAP in a mouse tongue cancer model. Our research offers scientific evidence for the role of the oral microbiome in oral cancer progression and provides insights that would help in devising preventative strategies against oral cancer, potentially by altering oral bacterial profiles.
