We have previously shown that the combination of statins and taxanes was a powerful trigger of HGT-1 human gastric cancer cells' apoptosis1. Importantly, several genes involved in the "Central carbon metabolism pathway in cancer", as reported in the Kyoto Encyclopedia of Genes and Genomes, were either up- (ACLY, ERBB2, GCK, MYC, PGM, PKFB2, SLC1A5, SLC7A5, SLC16A3,) or down- (IDH, MDH1, OGDH, P53, PDK) regulated in response to the drug association. In the present study, we conducted non-targeted metabolomics and lipidomics analyses by complementary methods and cross-platform initiatives, namely mass spectrometry (GC-MS, LC-MS) and nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR), to analyze the changes resulting from these treatments. We identified several altered biochemical pathways involved in the anabolism and disposition of amino acids, sugars, and lipids. Using the Cytoscape environment with, as an input, the identified biochemical marker changes, we distinguished the functional links between pathways. Finally, looking at the overlap between metabolomics/lipidomics and transcriptome changes, we identified correlations between gene expression modifications and changes in metabolites/lipids. Among the metabolites commonly detected by all types of platforms, glutamine was the most induced (6-7-fold), pointing to an important metabolic adaptation of cancer cells. Taken together, our results demonstrated that combining robust biochemical and molecular approaches was efficient to identify both altered metabolic pathways and overlapping gene expression alterations in human gastric cancer cells engaging into apoptosis following blunting the cholesterol synthesis pathway.
