タイトル PHGDH inhibition and FOXO3 modulation drives PUMA-dependent apoptosis in osteosarcoma.
ジャーナル Cell Death Dis
Abstract Osteosarcoma is a bone cancer that has been found to be metabolically dependent on the conversion of glucose to serine through the rate-limiting enzyme 3-phosphoglycerate dehydrogenase (PHGDH). The upregulation of PHGDH has been correlated with poor patient survival, and the inhibition of the serine synthesis pathway using targeted small-molecule inhibition of PHGDH induces a rapid metabolic adaptation that prevents cell death due to pro-survival signaling through the mammalian target of rapamycin complex 1 (mTORC1) pathway. Here, PHGDH inhibition in combination with mTORC1 signaling modulation for the treatment of osteosarcoma was evaluated. When combined with PHGDH inhibition, several non-rapalog inhibitors of mTORC1 activated Forkhead box O (FOXO) transcription factor 3 (FOXO3), a transcription factor associated with various cellular processes driving apoptosis. The activation of FOXO3 led to transcriptional activation of the pro-apoptotic gene p53 upregulated modulator of apoptosis (PUMA), inducing apoptosis when combined with PHGDH inhibition. These data suggest a path for the clinical development of PHGDH inhibitors in conjunction with mTORC1 pathway modulators in osteosarcoma.
