ALDOA‐Mediated Metabolic Reprogramming is a Targetable Vulnerability for Ferroptosis Sensitization in Cancer

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
ALDOA‐depletion‐mediated glycolytic reprogramming promotes autophagy‐mediated degradation of MBOAT2, increasing the ratio of phospholipids containing pro‐ferroptotic polyunsaturated fatty acids over anti‐ferroptotic monounsaturated fatty acids, and thus sensitizing cancer cells to ferroptosis.

The Pivotal Role of GR‐CAR Pathway in Fetal Programming of Hepatic Cytochrome P450 3A Alteration in Adulthood

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
Prenatal dexamethasone exposure (PDE) persistently upregulates hepatic CYP3A1/CYP2B1 in offspring via glucocorticoid receptor (GR) activation. In vivo and in vitro studies show GR promotes P300/CBP binding to the constitutive androstane receptor (CAR) promoter, sustaining histone acetylation (H3K9/K27ac) and enhancing CYP expression. The GR–CAR pathway

Transcriptomic changes associated with PCK1 overexpression in hepatocellular carcinoma cells detected by RNA-seq

open access: yesGenes and Diseases, 2020
Phosphoenolpyruvate carboxykinase 1 (PCK1), a step limiting enzyme of gluconeogenesis, is downregulated in hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC). Overexpression of PCK1 has been shown to suppress hepatoma cell growth, but the underlying mechanism remains ...

Structural and functional studies of phosphoenolpyruvate carboxykinase from Mycobacterium tuberculosis. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2015
Tuberculosis, the second leading infectious disease killer after HIV, remains a top public health priority. The causative agent of tuberculosis, Mycobacterium tuberculosis (Mtb), which can cause both acute and clinically latent infections, reprograms ...

Conservation and Divergence of Phosphoenolpyruvate Carboxylase Gene Family in Cotton

open access: yesPlants, 2022
Phosphoenolpyruvate carboxylase (PEPC) is an important enzyme in plants, which regulates carbon flow through the TCA cycle and controls protein and oil biosynthesis. Although it is important, there is little research on PEPC in cotton, the most important

Alkaline Phosphatase‐Activated NIR‐II AIEgens Nanosystem for Surgical and Postoperative Closed‐Loop Therapy of Advanced Osteosarcoma

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
This study designed a tumor microenvironment‐responsive AIEgen nanoparticle for near‐infrared photoimmunotherapy, which inhibits primary tumors and metastasis by promoting pyroptosis and suppressing aerobic glycolysis. ABSTRACT In advanced osteosarcoma, tumor invasion often prevents complete resection, and immunotherapy is limited by the tumor's ...

Emerging roles of cytosolic phosphoenolpyruvate kinase 1 (PCK1) in cancer

open access: yesBiochemistry and Biophysics Reports, 2023
Although it was traditionally believed that gluconeogenesis enzymes were absent from cancers that did not originate in gluconeogenic organs, numerous investigations have shown that they are functionally expressed in a variety of tumors as mediators of ...

GSH as an A‐A Type Allosteric Activator of PKM2: Modulating Cancer Cell Homeostasis and Ferroptosis Susceptibility

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
Glutathione (GSH) defines oxidative balance, but can it directly tune central metabolism? The research reveals that GSH binds and potently activates pyruvate kniase M2 (PKM2), rewiring glycolysis and dictating ferroptosis sensitivity. Combining GSH depletion with PKM2 activation triggers mitochondrial damage and lipid peroxidation, profoundly ...

Phosphoenolpyruvate carboxylase (PEPC) is essential for the glycolytic pathway and parasite proliferation in Babesia gibsoni

open access: yesAnimal Diseases
Apicomplexan parasites predominantly generate ATP and lactic acid through glycolysis and anaerobic glucose metabolism, incorporating CO2 into glycolysis via a stage-dependent phosphoenolpyruvate carboxylase (PEPC) mechanism.
