Although initial studies considered glycolysis as a crucial metabolic pathway in tumor metabolism reprogramming (i.e., the Warburg effect), recently, the critical role of mitochondria in oncogenesis, tumor progression, and neoplastic dissemination has emerged. In this report, we examined the main mitochondrial metabolic pathways that are altered in cancer, which play key roles in the different stages of tumor progression. Furthermore, we reviewed the function of important molecules inhibiting the main mitochondrial metabolic processes, which have been proven to be promising anticancer candidates in recent years. In particular, inhibitors of oxidative phosphorylation (OXPHOS), heme flux, the tricarboxylic acid cycle (TCA), glutaminolysis, mitochondrial dynamics, and biogenesis are discussed. The examined mitochondrial metabolic network inhibitors have produced interesting results in both preclinical and clinical studies, advancing cancer research and emphasizing that mitochondrial targeting may represent an effective anticancer strategy. Keywords: mitochondria; metabolic rewiring; metabolic network; targeting mitochondria; cancer therapy 1. Mitochondria and Cancer For many years, glycolysis has been considered the engine of cancer cells, the metabolic pathway that ensures their rapid production of ATP and supports an uncontrolled proliferation. Indeed, the Warburg studies showed that cancer metabolic reprogramming shifts energy metabolism towards the glycolytic pathway even in aerobic conditions [1]. Such aerobic glycolysis conditions, defined as the Warburg effect, ensures a rapid production of ATP from glucose, albeit less efficiently than complete mitochondrial oxidation, a process coupled with oxidative phosphorylation. The maintenance of the glycolytic pathway in cancer is associated with the conversion of the high amount of produced pyruvate into lactate, in order to guarantee a high NAD+/NADH cell ratio, which is essential for feeding glycolysis. The clinical application of the Warburg effect has led to the development of imaging technologies allowing the identification of malignant neoplasms by evaluating the ability of cells to metabolize 2-[18F] fluoro-2-deoxy-d-glucose (18F-FDG), a glucose analogue easily traceable by positron emission tomography (PET). Based on Warburg’s observations, for a long time, aerobic glycolysis of cancer cells was believed to be the result of a mitochondrial dysfunction, which in turn was considered to be a cause of cancer. Numerous nuclear–cytoplasmic transfer experiments supported this theory, showing that normal Int. J. Mol. Sci. 2020, 21, 6014; doi:10.3390/ijms21176014 www.mdpi.com/journal/ijms Int.Int. J. J. Mol.

In particular, several in vitro and in vivo cytoplasm suppresses tumorigenesis in cell cybrids [2]. In particular, several in vitro and in vivo studies showed that the fusion of healthy enucleated cells (cytoplasts) with tumoral karyoplastes can studies showed that the fusion of healthy enucleated cells (cytoplasts) with tumoral karyoplastes can significantly reduce tumorogenicity with respect to parental cancer. In contrast, the fusion of tumor significantly reduce tumorogenicity with respect to parental cancer. In contrast, the fusion of tumor cytoplasts with healthy karyoplasts does not determine any reduction of tumorogenicity, suggesting cytoplasts with healthy karyoplasts does not determine any reduction of tumorogenicity, suggesting that tumor development is triggered by mitochondrial rather than nuclear dysfunctions. that tumor development is triggered by mitochondrial rather than nuclear dysfunctions. In recent decades, however, the Warburg effect has been overcome as the dogma of In recent decades, however, the Warburg effect has been overcome as the dogma of cancer cancer biochemistry, with hypotheses emerging that the mechanisms underlying tumor metabolic biochemistry, with hypotheses emerging that the mechanisms underlying tumor metabolic reprogramming are much more complex than those theorized by Warburg, and that mitochondrial reprogramming are much more complex than those theorized by Warburg, and that mitochondrial metabolism can change during oncological pathology, thus influencing neoplastic transformation, metabolism can change during oncological pathology, thus influencing neoplastic transformation, tumortumor progression, progression, and and metastatic metastatic dissemination dissemination processes processes (Figure (Figure1). 1).

  • Lonidamine Induces Apoptosis in Drug-Resistant Cells Independently of the P53 Gene
    Lonidamine induces apoptosis in drug-resistant cells independently of the p53 gene. D Del Bufalo, … , A Sacchi, G Zupi J Clin Invest. 1996;98(5):1165-1173. https://doi.org/10.1172/JCI118900. Research Article Lonidamine, a dichlorinated derivative of indazole-3-carboxylic acid, was shown to play a significant role in reversing or overcoming multidrug resistance. Here, we show that exposure to 50 microg/ml of lonidamine induces apoptosis in adriamycin and nitrosourea-resistant cells (MCF-7 ADR(r) human breast cancer cell line, and LB9 glioblastoma multiform cell line), as demonstrated by sub-G1 peaks in DNA content histograms, condensation of nuclear chromatin, and internucleosomal DNA fragmentation. Moreover, we find that apoptosis is preceded by accumulation of the cells in the G0/G1 phase of the cell cycle. Interestingly, lonidamine fails to activate the apoptotic program in the corresponding sensitive parental cell lines (ADR-sensitive MCF-7 WT, and nitrosourea-sensitive LI cells) even after long exposure times. The evaluation of bcl-2 protein expression suggests that this different effect of lonidamine treatment in drug-resistant and -sensitive cell lines might not simply be due to dissimilar expression levels of bcl-2 protein. To determine whether the lonidamine-induced apoptosis is mediated by p53 protein, we used cells lacking endogenous p53 and overexpressing either wild-type p53 or dominant-negative p53 mutant. We find that apoptosis by lonidamine is independent of the p53 gene. Find the latest version: https://jci.me/118900/pdf
