RESUMO

Background and aims: An increasing body of observational studies has linked fructose intake to colorectal cancer (CRC). African Americans (AAs) are significantly more likely than European Americans to consume greater quantities of fructose and to develop right-side colon cancer. Yet, a mechanistic link between these two associations remains poorly defined. We aimed to identify differentially methylated regions (DMRs) associated with dietary fructose consumption measures obtained from food frequency questionnaires in a cohort of normal colon biopsies derived from AA men and women (n=79). Methods: DNA methylation data from this study was obtained using the Illumina Infinium MethylationEPIC kit and is housed under accession GSE151732. DMR analysis was carried out using DMRcate in right and matched left colon, separately. Secondary analysis of CRC tumors was carried out using data derived from TCGA-COAD, GSE101764 and GSE193535. Differential expression analysis was carried out on CRC tumors from TCGA-COAD using DESeq2 . Results: We identified 4,263 right-side fructose-DMRs. In contrast, only 24 DMRs survived multiple testing corrections (FDR<0.05) in matched, left colon. To identify targets by which dietary fructose drives CRC risk, we overlaid these findings with data from three CRC tumor datasets. Remarkably, almost 50% of right-side fructose-DMRs overlapped regions associated with CRC in at least one of three datasets. TNXB and CDX2 ranked among the most significant fructose risk DMRs in right and left colon respectively that also displayed altered gene expression in CRC tumors. Conclusions: Our mechanistic data support the notion that fructose has a greater CRC-related effect in right than left AA colon, alluding to a potential role for fructose in contributing to racial disparities in CRC.
