PHGDH expression increases with progression of Alzheimer’s disease pathology and symptoms
Chen et al. reveal an increase of phosphoglycerate dehydrogenase (PHGDH) mRNA and protein levels in two mouse models and four human cohorts in Alzheimer's disease brains compared to age- and sex-matched control brains. The increase of PHGDH expression in human brain correlates with symptomatic development and disease pathology.

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.

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.

Differential expression of PHGDH in pancreatic cancer.
Cancer is a leading cause of death and pancreatic cancer is among the most lethal cancers (1, 2). We mined published microarray datasets (3, 4) to determine in an unbiased fashion and at the level of the transcriptome genes most differentially expressed in the primary tumors of patients with pancreatic cancer, pancreatic adenocarcinoma (PDAC).

Cadmium (Cd) is a widespread environmental contaminant, which has been classified as a human carcinogen. Phosphoglycerate dehydrogenase (PHGDH), the first rate-limiting enzyme involved in the serine biosynthesis pathway, was reported to be able to ...

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.

This study shows that in glioma stem cells (GSCs), RBM12 recruits ALKBH5 to remove m6A from SLC7A5 transcripts, thereby enhancing mRNA stability, which elevates large neutral amino acid (LNAA) levels and activates mTORC1, promoting GSC proliferation, self‐renewal, and tumor growth.

Depression is increasingly recognized as a risk factor for chronic diseases, yet its biological impact on cancer remains unclear. Using data from more than 490 000 participants across three international cohorts, we show that depression significantly increases the risk of liver cancer.

PHGDH and cancer: new job for an old enzyme!
How do cancer cells bolster their energy metabolism under conditions of stress? Recent work by Shu et al (2022) unveils a novel, non-canonical function of the de novo serine synthesis pathway enzyme phosphoglycerate dehydrogenase (PHGDH) as a regulator of mitochondrial translation and tumor progression in liver cancer.
