New approaches for the management of glioblastoma (GBM) are an urgent and unmet clinical need. Here, we illustrate that the efficacy of radiotherapy for GBM is strikingly potentiated by concomitant therapy with the arginine-depleting agent ADI-PEG20 in a

Prognostic and Therapeutic Impact of Argininosuccinate Synthetase 1 Control in Bladder Cancer as Monitored Longitudinally by PET Imaging [PDF]
Abstract Targeted therapies have yet to have significant impact on the survival of patients with bladder cancer. In this study, we focused on the urea cycle enzyme argininosuccinate synthetase 1 (ASS1) as a therapeutic target in bladder cancer, based on our discovery of the prognostic and functional import of ASS1 in this setting ...

Pyrroloquinoline Quinone Attenuates Traumatic Brain Injury-Induced Secondary Damage by Activating PINK1/Parkin-Mediated Mitophagy and Suppressing ASS1/CPS1-Driven Arginine Biosynthesis. [PDF]
Pyrroloquinoline quinone (PQQ) attenuates traumatic brain injury in mice. Multi‐omics integration and molecular docking reveal that PQQ activates PINK1/Parkin‐mediated mitophagy to restore mitochondrial homeostasis while suppressing ASS1/CPS1‐driven arginine biosynthesis to dampen neuroinflammation, identifying a dual‐axis therapeutic mechanism for TBI.

The ASS1 gene encodes argininosuccinate synthetase-1, a cytosolic enzyme with a critical role in the urea cycle. Mutations are found in all ASS1 exons and cause the autosomal recessive disorder citrullinemia. Using CRISPR/Cas9-editing, we established the

Differential expression of argininosuccinate synthetase in serous and non‐serous ovarian carcinomas [PDF]
The current standard of care for epithelial ovarian cancer does not discriminate between different histologic subtypes (serous, clear cell, endometrioid and mucinous) despite the knowledge that ovarian carcinoma subtypes do not respond uniformly to ...

Background Arginine (Arg) is a semiessential amino acid whose bioavailability is required for the in vitro replication of several oncolytic viruses. In vivo, Arg bioavailability is regulated by a combination of dietary intake, protein catabolism, and ...
