The prognostic and therapeutic implications of distinct patterns of argininosuccinate synthase 1 (ASS1) and arginase-2 (ARG2) expression by cancer cells and tumor stroma in non-small-cell lung cancer

open access: yesCancer & Metabolism, 2021
Background Arginine (Arg) is essential for cancer cell growth and also for the activation of T cells. Thus, therapies aiming to reduce Arg utilization by cancer may prove detrimental for the immune response.

Reduced expression of argininosuccinate synthetase 1 has a negative prognostic impact in patients with pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma.

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2017
Argininosuccinate synthetase 1 (ASS1), the rate-limiting enzyme for arginine biosynthesis, is expressed in many types of human malignancies. Recent studies showed that ASS1 may have tumor suppressor function and that ASS1 deficiency is associated with ...

Hypomorphic citrullinaemia due to mutatedASS1with episodic ataxia [PDF]

open access: yesBMJ Case Reports, 2018
Children with citrullinaemia commonly present in the neonatal period with life-threatening hyperammonaemia and progressive encephalopathy. Less often, ‘hypomorphic’ or mild late-onset childhood or adult-onset forms may be seen with intermittent neurological symptoms or acute crisis in pregnancy.

Cloning and functional analysis of the promoter of the sesquiterpene synthase gene ASS1 in Aquilaria sinensis

open access: yesBiologia Plantarum, 2021
Agarwood, the resin part of Aquilaria spp., is valued in medicine, perfumes, and incense. The most important components of agarwood are sesquiterpenes, which are produced only when a healthy tree is wounded.

Targeting purine synthesis in ASS1-expressing tumors enhances the response to immune checkpoint inhibitors

open access: yes, 2020
Argininosuccinate synthase (ASS1) downregulation in different tumors has been shown to support cell proliferation and yet, in several common cancer subsets ASS1 expression associates with poor patient prognosis.

BAP1 loss is associated with higher ASS1 expression in epithelioid mesothelioma: implications for therapeutic stratification. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2023
The nuclear deubiquitylase BRCA1 associated protein 1 (BAP1) is frequently inactivated in malignant pleural mesothelioma (MPM) and germline BAP1 mutation predisposes to cancers including MPM.

Snail enhances arginine synthesis by inhibiting ubiquitination-mediated degradation of ASS1

open access: yesThe EMBO Reports, 2021
Snail is a dedicated transcriptional repressor and acts as a master inducer of EMT and metastasis, yet the underlying signaling cascades triggered by Snail still remain elusive. Here, we report that Snail promotes colorectal cancer (CRC) migration by preventing non-coding RNA LOC113230-mediated degradation of argininosuccinate synthase 1 (ASS1 ...

ASS1 protein is upregulated in 3D in mesothelioma cells but not in normal mesothelial cells.

open access: yes, 2016
(A) ASS1 antibodies (BD clone 25, Sigma clone 2B10, and Millipore clone 2C10) were tested against ASS1-positive MSTO pIRES-ASS1 (as a positive control) and ASS1-negative MSTO pIRES-EV (as a negative control).

ASS1 Promotes Atherosclerotic Inflammation Through the NLRP3/IL-33/ST2 Axis in Ox-LDL–Induced Foam Cells

open access: yesFrontiers in Bioscience-Landmark
Background: Atherosclerosis is a chronic inflammatory disease characterized by lipid-driven immune dysregulation. Argininosuccinate synthase 1 (ASS1) has been implicated in macrophage inflammation, yet its precise mechanistic role in ...
