Effects of folate on telomere length and chromosome stability of human fibroblasts and melanoma cells in vitro: a comparison of folic acid and 5-methyltetrahydrofolate

Abstract Telomere length (TL), which is maintained by human telomerase reverse transcriptase (hTERT; component of telomerase) and/or TRF1/TRF2 (core components of shelterin) via different mechanisms, is essential for chromosomal stability and cell survival. Folates comprise a group of essential B9 v...

description Abstract Telomere length (TL), which is maintained by human telomerase reverse transcriptase (hTERT; component of telomerase) and/or TRF1/TRF2 (core components of shelterin) via different mechanisms, is essential for chromosomal stability and cell survival. Folates comprise a group of essential B9 vitamin that involve in DNA synthesis and methylation. This study aimed to evaluate the effects of folic acid (FA) and 5-methyltetrahydrofolate (5-MeTHF) on TL, chromosome stability, and cell survival of telomerase-negative BJ and telomerase-positive A375 cells in vitro. BJ and A375 cells were cultured in modified medium with FA or 5-MeTHF (22.6 or 2260 nM) for 28 days. TL and mRNA expression were determined by RT-qPCR. Chromosome instability (CIN) and cell death were measured by CBMN-Cyt assay. Results showed that abnormal TL elongation was observed in FA- and 5-MeTHF-deficient BJ cells. The TL of A375 cells showed no obvious alterations under the FA-deficient condition but was significantly elongated under the 5-MeTHF-deficient condition. In both BJ and A375 cells, FA and 5-MeTHF deficiency caused decreased TRF1, TRF2, and hTERT expression, increased CIN and cell death; while a high concentration of 5-MeTHF induced elongated TL, elevated CIN, increased TRF1 and TRF2 expression, and decreased hTERT expression, when compared with the FA counterpart. These findings concluded that folate deficiency induced TL instability in both telomerase-negative and -positive cells, and FA was more efficient in maintaining TL and chromosome stability compared with 5-MeTHF.
