الوصف: | Loss of 5‐hydroxymethylcytosine (5hmC) occurs frequently in a wide variety of tumours, including clear‐cell renal cell carcinoma (ccRCC). It remains unknown, however, whether the restoration of 5hmC patterns in tumours could have therapeutic efficacy. Here, we used sodium L‐ascorbate (vitamin C, AsANa) and the oxidation‐resistant form L‐ascorbic acid 2‐phosphate sesquimagnesium (APM) for the restoration of 5hmC patterns in ccRCC cells. At physiological concentrations, both show anti‐tumour efficacy during long‐term treatment in vitro and in vivo. Strikingly, global 5hmC patterns in ccRCC cells after treatment resemble those of normal kidney tissue, which is observed also in treated xenograft tumours, and in primary cells from a ccRCC patient. Further, RNA‐seq data show that long‐term treatment with vitamin C changes the transcriptome of ccRCC cells. Finally, APM treatment induces less non‐specific cell damage and shows increased stability in mouse plasma compared to AsANa. Taken together, our study provides proof of concept for an epigenetic differentiation therapy of ccRCC with vitamin C, especially APM, at low doses by 5hmC reprogramming. |
