結腸直腸癌是發生率世界排名第三的惡性癌症類型,具有高度的復發和轉移率。近期研究已證實腫瘤微生物是引發化療抗藥性的重要原因之一,進而影響治療效果。中間普雷沃菌(Prevotella intermedia)是一種存在於口腔和腸道的革蘭氏陰性厭氧菌,近年被發現在結腸直腸癌腫瘤中具有較高含量,並與癌症發展有關。然而中間普雷沃菌在結腸直腸癌化療抗藥性中扮演的角色仍未被揭露。本研究中調查了中間普雷沃菌是否促進結腸直腸癌對化療藥5-氟尿嘧啶(5-FU)的抗藥性。中間普雷沃菌ATCC 25611菌株與結腸直腸癌細胞株的共培養,以及其條件培養基(CM)的處理,顯著促進了細胞增殖並降低了對5-氟尿嘧啶的敏感性。CM處理也增強了在化療藥物施用下癌細胞的群落形成能力,顯示出其與化療抗性和復發有很大的潛在相關性。在機制上,中間普雷沃菌分泌的半胱胺酸蛋白酶interpain A能夠活化結腸直腸癌細胞上的蛋白酶活化受體2(PAR-2)。較高interpain A表現水平的中間普雷沃菌臨床分離株的CM具有更強的促增殖和抗藥能力,而蛋白酶抑制劑和PAR-2拮抗劑能顯著抑制這些效應。進一步的細胞傳訊分析顯示,CM介導的效應主要是通過PI3K和AKT傳訊分子驅動的。另外在5-氟尿嘧啶施用下,CM處理會顯著上調藥物外排基因ABCB1的表達,暗示其在外排介導的抗藥性中扮演重要角色。透過SA-β-gal染色的方法進行判斷,CM處理亦增加了治療誘導衰老(TIS)細胞的比例。另外CM處理之細胞上調與衰老相關的細胞因子IL-10與TGF-β的表達量,並可以藉此進一步增強鄰近細胞的旁觀者效應,促進其增殖與抗藥。綜合而言,我們的研究發現揭示了中間普雷沃菌在結腸直腸癌中扮演的新角色,透過PAR-2訊號傳導、ABCB1上調及衰老誘導來促進化療抗藥性,為腫瘤微生物影響結腸直腸癌化療效果提供了新的見解。
Colorectal cancer (CRC) is the third most common cancer worldwide and is characterized by a high rate of recurrence and metastasis. Recent studies have identified intratumoral microbiota as a critical factor influencing chemotherapy resistance, thereby compromising treatment efficacy. Prevotella intermedia, a Gram-negative anaerobe typically found in the oral cavity and gut, is enriched in CRC tumors and has been associated with advanced disease stages. However, its role in CRC chemoresistance remains largely unexplored. In this study, we investigated whether P. intermedia contributes to CRC resistance to 5-fluorouracil (5-FU). Co-culture of P. intermedia ATCC 25611 with CRC cell lines, as well as treatment with its conditioned medium (CM), significantly promoted cell proliferation and reduced sensitivity to 5-FU. CM treatment also enhances the clonogenicity under drug exposure, indicating potential links to chemoresistance and recurrence. Mechanistically, the cysteine protease interpain A (InpA) secreted by P. intermedia was found to activate protease-activated receptor 2 (PAR-2) on CRC cells. Clinical isolates with higher InpA expression level induced stronger proliferative and chemoresistant responses, while protease inhibitors and PAR-2 antagonists significantly suppressed these effects. Further pathway analysis revealed that CM-mediated effects were primarily driven through PI3K and AKT signaling. Additionally, CM treatment under 5-FU exposure led to upregulation of the drug efflux gene ABCB1, suggesting a role for efflux-mediated drug resistance. CM also increased therapy-induced senescence (TIS), as evidenced by enhanced SA-β-gal staining and elevated expression of the senescence-associated cytokines IL-10 and TGF-β. These changes further enhanced bystander effects, promoting neighboring cell proliferation and resistance. Collectively, our findings reveal a previously unrecognized role of P. intermedia in promoting chemoresistance in CRC via PAR-2 signaling, ABCB1 upregulation, and senescence induction, offering new insights into microbe-driven therapeutic failure in CRC.
