Summary: Phosphoglycerate dehydrogenase (PHGDH) is the first enzyme in the serine synthesis pathway in which it is also the rate-limiting enzyme. It is significantly upregulated in many cancers, especially breast cancer.

PHGDH supports liver ceramide synthesis and sustains lipid homeostasis
Background d-3-phosphoglycerate dehydrogenase (PHGDH), which encodes the first enzyme in serine biosynthesis, is overexpressed in human cancers and has been proposed as a drug target.

Targeting phosphoglycerate dehydrogenase in multiple myeloma
Background Multiple myeloma (MM) is a hematological malignancy characterized by the clonal expansion of plasma cells in the bone marrow. To date, this disease is still incurable and novel therapeutic approaches are required.

Increased PHGDH expression promotes aberrant melanin accumulation
Background Copy number gain of the D-3-phosphoglycerate dehydrogenase (PHGDH) gene, which encodes the first enzyme in serine biosynthesis, is found in some human cancers including a subset of melanomas.

Can small molecular inhibitors that stop de novo serine synthesis be used in cancer treatment?
To sustain their malignancy, tumour cells acquire several metabolic adaptations such as increased oxygen, glucose, glutamine, and lipids uptake. Other metabolic processes are also enhanced as part of tumour metabolic reprogramming, for example, increased

High Expression of PHGDH Predicts Poor Prognosis in Non–Small Cell Lung Cancer
Tumors have exceptionally high demands for energy and anabolism because of their rapid growth. The de novo serine synthesis pathway initiated by phosphoglycerate dehydrogenase (PHGDH) has been recognized as a hallmark of metabolic adaption in ...

The metabolic reprogramming and vulnerability of SF3B1 mutations
Mutations in the splicing factor 3b subunit 1 (SF3B1) gene create a neomorphic protein that disrupts RNA splicing, but the downstream consequences of this missplicing are unclear.

Targeting one-carbon metabolism requires mTOR inhibition: a new therapeutic approach in osteosarcoma
The rate-limiting enzyme of serine biosynthesis, 3-phosphoglycerate dehydrogenase (PHGDH), contributes to rapid growth and proliferation when it is overexpressed in cancer.
