However, the contribution of these non-glycolytic functions in tumor progression remains poorly defined. Here, we show that elevated expression of glyceraldehyde-3-phosphate dehydrogenase (GAPDH), but not of other glycolytic enzymes tested, increased aggressiveness and vascularization of non-Hodgkin’s lymphoma. Elevated GAPDH expression was found to promote nuclear factor-κB (NF-κB) activation via binding to tumor necrosis factor receptor-associated factor-2 (TRAF2), enhancing the transcription and the activity of hypoxia-inducing factor-1α (HIF-1α). Consistent with this, inactive mutants of GAPDH failed to bind TRAF2, enhance HIF-1 activity or promote lymphomagenesis. Furthermore, elevated expression of gapdh mRNA in biopsies from diffuse large B-cell non-Hodgkin’s lymphoma patients correlated with high levels of hif-1α, vegf-a, nfkbia mRNA and CD31 staining. Collectively, these data indicate that deregulated GAPDH expression promotes NF-κB-dependent induction of HIF-1α and has a key role in lymphoma vascularization and aggressiveness.

    Cancer Microenvironment (2019) 12:149–167 https://doi.org/10.1007/s12307-019-00226-0 REVIEW Pyruvate Kinase M2: a Metabolic Bug in Re-Wiring the Tumor Microenvironment Mohd Rihan1 & Lakshmi Vineela Nalla1 & Anil Dharavath1 & Amit Shard3 & Kiran Kalia2 & Amit Khairnar1 Received: 18 March 2019 /Accepted: 17 May 2019 /Published online: 10 June 2019 # Springer Nature B.V. 2019 Abstract Metabolic reprogramming is a newly emerged hallmark of cancer attaining a recent consideration as an essential factor for the progression and endurance of cancer cells. A prime event of this altered metabolism is increased glucose uptake and discharge of lactate into the cells surrounding constructing a favorable tumor niche. Several oncogenic factors help in promoting this consequence including, pyruvate kinase M2 (PKM2) a rate-limiting enzyme of glycolysis in tumor metabolism via exhibiting its low pyruvate kinase activity and nuclear moon-lightening functions to increase the synthesis of lactate and macromolecules for tumor proliferation. Not only its role in cancer cells but also its role in the tumor microenvironment cells has to be understood for developing the small molecules against it which is lacking with the literature till date. Therefore, in this present review, the role of PKM2 with respect to various tumor niche cells will be clarified. Further, it highlights the updated list of therapeutics targeting PKM2 pre-clinically and clinically with their added limitations. This upgraded understanding of PKM2 may provide a pace for the reader in developing

  • A20 Promotes Melanoma Progression Via the Activation of Akt Pathway
    Ma et al. Cell Death and Disease (2020) 11:794 https://doi.org/10.1038/s41419-020-03001-y Cell Death & Disease ARTICLE Open Access A20 promotes melanoma progression via the activation of Akt pathway Jinyuan Ma1, Huina Wang1,SenGuo1, Xiuli Yi1, Tao Zhao1,YuLiu1,QiongShi1,TianwenGao1,ChunyingLi1 and Weinan Guo1 Abstract Melanoma is the most life-threatening skin cancer with increasing incidence around the world. Although recent advances in targeted therapy and immunotherapy have brought revolutionary progress of the treatment outcome, the survival of patients with advanced melanoma remains unoptimistic, and metastatic melanoma is still an incurable disease. Therefore, to further understand the mechanism underlying melanoma pathogenesis could be helpful for developing novel therapeutic strategy. A20 is a crucial ubiquitin-editing enzyme implicated immunity regulation, inflammatory responses and cancer pathogenesis. Herein, we report that A20 played an oncogenic role in melanoma. We first found that the expression of A20 was significantly up-regulated in melanoma cell lines. Then, we showed that knockdown of A20 suppressed melanoma cell proliferation in vitro and melanoma growth in vivo through the regulation of cell-cycle progression. Moreover, A20 could potentiate the invasive and migratory capacities of melanoma cell in vitro and melanoma metastasis in vivo by promoting epithelial–mesenchymal transition (EMT). Mechanistically, we found that Akt activation mediated the oncogenic effect of A20 on melanoma development, with the involvement of glycolysis. What’s more, the up-regulation of A20 conferred the acquired resistance to Vemurafenib in BRAF-mutant melanoma. Taken together, we demonstrated that up-regulated A20 promoted melanoma progression via the activation of Akt pathway, and that A20 could be exploited as a potential therapeutic target for 1234567890():,; 1234567890():,; 1234567890():,; 1234567890():,; melanoma treatment.

Mitotic checkpoint protein BUB3 as a key protein involved in the regulation of mitosis is modulated by PKM2, an important glycolytic enzyme. However the role of BUB3 in glucose metabolism remains unknown. Methods: We analyzed the TCGA data to evaluate BUB3 expression in certain tumors. The uptake of glucose and CO2 incorporation was tested by isotopic tracer methods. The lactate, NADPH, NADP and metabolic enzyme activities were tested by assay kits accordingly. Results: We show here that BUB3 is over expressed in cervical cancer and hepatocellular carcinoma. Interference of BUB3 increase the uptake of glucose and shunts the metabolic ux from pentose phosphate pathway to glycolytic pathway. The glycolysis metabolites lactate is increased by BUB3 interference whereas NADPH/NADP ratio is reduced.

This comprehensive review summarizes what is known for each enzyme confirmed to form filamentous structures in vitro, and for the many that are known only to form large self-assemblies within cells. For some enzymes, studies describing both the in vitro filamentous structures and cellular self-assembly formation are also known and described. Special attention is paid to the detailed structures of each type of enzyme filament, as well as the roles the structures play in enzyme regulation and in biology. Where it is known or hypothesized, the advantages conferred by enzyme filamentation are reviewed. Finally, the similarities, differences, and comparison to the SgrAI system are also highlighted. 2 Contents INTRODUCTION…………………………………………………………..4 STRUCTURALLY CHARACTERIZED ENZYME FILAMENTS…….5 Acetyl CoA Carboxylase (ACC)……………………………………………………………………5 Phosphofructokinase (PFK)……………………………………………………………………….6

  • Metabolic Regulation of Calcium Pumps in Pancreatic Cancer: Role of Phosphofructokinase-Fructose- Bisphosphatase-3 (PFKFB3) D
    Richardson et al. Cancer & Metabolism (2020) 8:2 https://doi.org/10.1186/s40170-020-0210-2 RESEARCH Open Access Metabolic regulation of calcium pumps in pancreatic cancer: role of phosphofructokinase-fructose- bisphosphatase-3 (PFKFB3) D. A. Richardson1, P. Sritangos1, A. D. James2, A. Sultan1 and J. I. E. Bruce1* Abstract Background: High glycolytic rate is a hallmark of cancer (Warburg effect). Glycolytic ATP is required for fuelling plasma membrane calcium ATPases (PMCAs), responsible for extrusion of cytosolic calcium, in pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC). Phosphofructokinase-fructose-bisphosphatase-3 (PFKFB3) is a glycolytic driver that activates key rate-limiting enzyme Phosphofructokinase-1; we investigated whether PFKFB3 is required for PMCA function in PDAC cells. Methods: PDAC cell-lines, MIA PaCa-2, BxPC-3, PANC1 and non-cancerous human pancreatic stellate cells (HPSCs) were used. Cell growth, death and metabolism were assessed using sulforhodamine-B/tetrazolium-based assays, poly-ADP- ribose-polymerase (PARP1) cleavage and seahorse XF analysis, respectively. ATP was measured using a luciferase-based assay, membrane proteins were isolated using a kit and intracellular calcium concentration and PMCA activity were measured using Fura-2 fluorescence imaging. Results: PFKFB3 was highly expressed in PDAC cells but not HPSCs. In MIA PaCa-2, a pool of PFKFB3 was identified at the plasma membrane. PFKFB3 inhibitor, PFK15, caused reduced cell growth and PMCA activity, leading to calcium overload and apoptosis in PDAC cells. PFK15 reduced glycolysis but had noeffectonsteady-stateATPconcentrationinMIAPaCa-2. Conclusions: PFKFB3 is important for maintaining PMCA function in PDAC, independently of cytosolic ATP levels and may be involved in providing a localised ATP supply at the plasma membrane.

However, whether the dysregulated level of miRNAs contributes to the metabolic shift in nasopharyngeal carcinoma is not completely understood. Objectives: This study was conducted to explore the expression and function of miR-206 in nasopharyngeal carcinoma. Methods: miR-206 expression level was examined by real-time PCR. miR-206 inhibitor, mimics, and scrambled control were transiently transfected into nasopharyngeal carcinoma cells and their effects on colony formation, glucose uptake, and lactate secretion were observed in vitro. Moreover, the relationship between the levels of miR-206 and HK2 was examined by luciferase reporter and assay western blot. Results: In our study, we reported downregulation of miR-206 expression leads to metabolic change in nasopharyngeal carcinoma cells. miR-206 controls this function by enhancing HK2 expression.
