Targeting glutamine metabolism as a therapeutic strategy for cancer

open access: yesExperimental and Molecular Medicine, 2023
Further insights into metabolic reprogramming by cancer cells are needed to determine if targeting glutamine metabolism could be a useful therapeutic approach. Cancer cells rely on the amino acid glutamine for growth and proliferation. Glutamine is a key

SLC38A2 and glutamine signalling in cDC1s dictate anti-tumour immunity

open access: yesNature, 2023
Cancer cells evade T cell-mediated killing through tumour–immune interactions whose mechanisms are not well understood^ 1 , 2 . Dendritic cells (DCs), especially type-1 conventional DCs (cDC1s), mediate T cell priming and therapeutic efficacy against ...

Rethinking glutamine metabolism and the regulation of glutamine addiction by oncogenes in cancer

open access: yesFrontiers in Oncology, 2023
Glutamine, the most abundant non-essential amino acid in human blood, is crucial for cancer cell growth and cancer progression. Glutamine mainly functions as a carbon and nitrogen source for biosynthesis, energy metabolism, and redox homeostasis ...

Glutamine metabolic reprogramming in hepatocellular carcinoma

open access: yesFrontiers in Molecular Biosciences, 2023
Hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) is a lethal disease with limited management strategies and poor prognosis. Metabolism alternations have been frequently unveiled in HCC, including glutamine metabolic reprogramming.

CD40 signal rewires fatty acid and glutamine metabolism for stimulating macrophage anti-tumorigenic functions

open access: yesNature Immunology, 2023
Unlike metabolic reprogramming that is characteristic of macrophage inflammatory polarization responses to lipopolysaccharide and TLR4 stimulation, the metabolism underlying inflammatory responses to CD40 signaling is not well characterized.

A tracer bolus method for investigating glutamine kinetics in humans. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2014
Glutamine transport between tissues is important for the outcome of critically ill patients. Investigation of glutamine kinetics is, therefore, necessary to understand glutamine metabolism in these patients in order to improve future intervention studies.

Enteral Glutamine Modulates Renal Glutamine Utilization [PDF]

open access: yesThe Journal of Nutrition, 1996
Enteral glutamine feeding effect on renal glutamine utilization was assessed from the perspective of gamma glutamyltransferase activity-dependent cellular glutamate modulation of phosphate-dependent glutaminase. After 4d, rats fed an elemental diet supplemented with glutamine exhibited a 2 1 % higher kidney glutamate content and 27% reduction in ...

Reprogramming of glutamine metabolism and its impact on immune response in the tumor microenvironment

open access: yesCell Communication and Signaling, 2022
Metabolic reprogramming and immune escape play a major role in tumorigenesis. Increasing number of studies have shown that reprogramming of glutamine metabolism is a putative determinant of the anti-tumor immune response in the tumor microenvironment ...

Glutamine synthetase is a genetic determinant of cell type-specific glutamine independence in breast epithelia. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS Genetics, 2011
Although significant variations in the metabolic profiles exist among different cells, little is understood in terms of genetic regulations of such cell type-specific metabolic phenotypes and nutrient requirements.
