Abstract Objective: To study the effects of butyrate on the proliferation and metabolism of gastric cancer cells, and explore its potential mechanism. Methods: EdU and Transwell were used to detect the proliferation and migration of gastric cancer cells after 5 mmol/L sodium butyrate treatment for 48 h, and the cells were collected and metabolites were extracted for metabolomic analysis. Then we screened out the significantly enriched metabolic pathways and upregulated metabolites. Western blot and cellular immunofluorescence were used to detect the degree of protein succinylation in gastric cancer cells treated with sodium butyrate. Meanwhile, the mRNA level of SIRT5, SUCLG1, SUCLG2, and SUCLA2 was detected by RT-qPCR. Results: After 48 h of sodium butyrate treatment, the proliferation of gastric cancer cells decreased significantly. The metabolic pathways such as “TCA cycle” and “oxidative phosphorylation” were significantly enriched in the treatment group, and the TCA cycle metabolite L-Malic acid, succinyl-CoA and fumarate were significantly upregulated (all P<0.05).Western blot and immunofluorescence showed that the protein succinylation of gastric cancer cells was activated after sodium butyrate treatment (P<0.05). What’s more, RT-qPCR results confirmed that sodium butyrate treatment increased the mRNA expression of succinyl-CoA synthetase encoding gene, including SUCLG1,SUCLG2, and SUCLA2 (all P<0.05), but did not significantly affect the expression of SIRT5 (P<0.05).Conclusion: Butyrate inhibits the proliferation of gastric cancer cells by activating SUCLs expression and increasing the level of succinyl-CoA to further promote the protein succinylation of gastric cancer cells.
