Treatment:

Treatment ID:TR002817
Treatment Summary:The human non-small cell lung cancer cell line (A549) was purchased from AmericanType Culture Collection (ATCC) (Manassas, USA). A doxorubicin-resistant A549 (A549-R) cell line was generated in our laboratory (Drug Design and Discovery Research Group, Pharmacology Laboratory, Sharjah Institute for Medical Research, University of Sharjah). To develop resistant cells from the parental A549 cells (A549-P), A549-P cells were treated with a tenth of Dox's maximal inhibitory concentration (IC10). The surviving population of cells was cultured in a new flask and treated with a gradual increase of Dox concentration for 8 months. Maintenance of A549-R cells resistance was at a dose of 0.02 µg/ml of Dox. A549-P and A549-R cells were cultured in a Dulbecco's Modified Eagle Medium/ Nutrient Mixture F-12 (1:1) medium (DMEM/F-12) supplemented with 10% fetal bovine serum (FBS) and 1% penicillin/streptomycin. The cells were incubated in a humidified atmosphere of 5% CO2 at 37 ˚C.

Sample Preparation:

Sampleprep ID:SP002814
Sampleprep Summary:Two million cells from both cell lines (A549-P and A549-R) were seeded in T75 cell culture flasks. Following culturing the cells, they were collected by trypsin and a pellet of 3x106 cells was stored at -80 ℃ for further analysis. Each cell line was prepared in triplicates for the metabolomics and proteomics studies. Frozen A549-P and A549-R cells pellets were centrifuged at 14000 rpm for 5 min at 4 ℃ to separate them from Phosphate Buffered Saline (PBS) buffer. The pellets were suspended in a lysis buffer (10 mM Tris) and protease inhibitor cocktail tablets. The lysed cells were kept on ice for 10 min, and then each sample was vortexed for 30 s. After that, the samples were sonicated in an ice bath using a Q500 sonicator from QSonica Sonicator (Fairfield, Connecticut, USA) at 30% amp for 30 s. Then, the samples were centrifuged at 14000 rpm for 5 min at 4℃, 400 µL of methanol was added to the supernatant, followed by 300 µL of chloroform and vortexed for 30 seconds, and then centrifuged at 14000 rpm for 5 min at 4 ℃. The resulting aqueous biphasic solution's upper layer was transferred carefully into LC vials without touching the white disk for metabolites analysis. For proteins extraction, the generated white disk and the lower layer were washed with 300 µL of methanol and vortexed vigorously, and then centrifuged at 14000 rpm for 3 min at 4 ℃. After that, the protein pellet was precipitated and allowed to dry by keeping the tubes opened for 5 min. Then a denaturation buffer was used to re-suspend the pellets (10 mM Tris, 6 M Urea, 2 M Thiourea, pH 8) and the concentration of precipitated proteins was determined using the modified Bradford assay. The resulted supernatant from the previous centrifugation, which contains metabolites, was transferred to the previously collected metabolites in the LC vials. The metabolites samples were dried at 45 ℃ using an EZ-2 Plus evaporator from GeneVac (Ipswich, UK), and then the dehydrated extracts were reconstituted in 200 µL 0.1% formic acid (FA) in water and vortexed for 2 min. Finally, the samples were filtered using a hydrophilic syringe filter with a pore size of 0.45 µm and were ready to be analyzed using Q-TOF MS.

MS:

MS ID:MS004132
Analysis ID:AN004383
Instrument Name:Bruker timsTOF
Instrument Type:QTOF
MS Type:ESI
MS Comments:MetaboScape® 4.0 software from Bruker (Bremen, Germany) was used for data processing. The parameters for the detection were as follows: a minimum of 7 spectra were used for peak detection, while for molecular features detection, the minimum intensity threshold was equivalent to 1000 counts. Mass recalibration was performed within a retention time range between 0-0.3 min. Only those features present in at least 2 of 6 samples were considered. Finally, the detected MS/MS spectra assigned onto the bucket table allowed for better viewing and understanding. The main features included retention time, measured m/z, detected fragments, and molecular weight [12]. Data bucketing parameters were as follows: the retention time range was between 0.3 min and 25 min, whereas the mass range began at 50 m/z and finished at 1,300 m/z. A two-tailed independent student’s t-test was utilized to determine the significantly altered metabolites between the two cell lines. The threshold for significance was p-value <0.05. Functional enrichment analysis was constructed utilizing the MetaboAnalyst 5.0 website (https://www.metaboanalyst.ca).
