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.

A PHGDH inhibitor reveals coordination of serine synthesis and one-carbon unit fate [PDF]
Serine is a both a proteinogenic amino acid and the source of one-carbon units essential for de novo purine and deoxythymidine synthesis. In the canonical glucose-derived serine synthesis pathway, Homo sapiens phosphoglycerate dehydrogenase (PHGDH ...

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

3-Phosphoglycerate dehydrogenase (PHGDH) has recently been identified as an attractive target in cancer therapy as it links upregulated glycolytic flux to increased biomass production in cancer cells. PHGDH catalyses the first step in the serine synthesis pathway and thus diverts glycolytic flux into serine synthesis.

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.

Nuclear PHGDH protects cancer cells from nutrient stress
In this study, the serine biosynthetic enzyme PHGDH is shown to transition from the cytosol to the nucleus following nutrient stress. Nuclear PHGDH reduces local NAD+ availability needed for the PARylation of the transcription factor c-Jun. Consequently, c-Jun activity is reduced, contributing to sustained cancer cell proliferation.
