PKM2 is a potential prognostic biomarker and related to immune infiltration in lung cancer

open access: yesScientific Reports, 2023
Pyruvate kinase M2 ( PKM2 ), a subtype of pyruvate kinase, plays a crucial role as a key enzyme in the final step of glycolysis. It is involved in regulating the tumor microenvironment and accelerating tumor progression. However, the relationship between

Please Keep Me 2uned to PKM2 [PDF]

open access: yesMolecular Cell, 2014
In this issue of Molecular Cell, Keller et al. (2014) found that binding of the metabolite SAICAR to PKM2 induces the protein kinase activity of an enzyme normally designed to terminate the glycolytic pathway.

PKM2, STAT3 and HIF-1α [PDF]

open access: yesJAK-STAT, 2012
The M2 isoform of pyruvate kinase, highly expressed in tumor cells, is known to engage a feed forward loop with the glycolysis master transcription factor HIF-1α. Gao and co-authors recently showed that dimeric PKM2 localizes to the nucleus in highly proliferating cancer cells, where it regulates in vivo growth by acting as a protein kinase and ...

Subcellular compartmentalization of PKM2 identifies anti-PKM2 therapy response in vitro and in vivo mouse model of human non-small-cell lung cancer.

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2019
Pyruvate kinase M2 (PKM2) is an alternatively spliced variant, which mediates the conversion of glucose to lactate in cancer cells under normoxic conditions, known as the Warburg effect.

PKM2/STAT1-mediated PD-L1 upregulation on neutrophils during sepsis promotes neutrophil organ accumulation by serving an anti-apoptotic role

open access: yesJournal of Inflammation, 2023
Background Delayed neutrophil apoptosis during sepsis may impact neutrophil organ accumulation and tissue immune homeostasis. Elucidating the mechanisms underlying neutrophil apoptosis may help identify potential therapeutic targets.

SIRT5 Desuccinylates and Activates Pyruvate Kinase M2 to Block Macrophage IL-1β Production and to Prevent DSS-Induced Colitis in Mice

open access: yesCell Reports, 2017
LPS-activated macrophages undergo a metabolic shift from dependence on mitochondria-produced ATP to reliance on aerobic glycolysis, where PKM2 is a critical determinant.

What to do with PKM2 [PDF]

open access: yesScience-Business eXchange, 2013
Novartis has shown that the absence of pyruvate kinase M2 isozyme has no effect on cancer cell proliferation in mice, thus suggesting PKM2 inhibition alone might not be an effective strategy to stop tumor growth. Biotechs working on PKM2 modulators think it is too early to write off the target.

Research progress on the role of PKM2 in the immune response

open access: yesFrontiers in Immunology, 2022
Pyruvate kinase (PK) is a key enzyme that catalyzes the dephosphorylation of phosphoenolpyruvate (PEP) into pyruvate, and is responsible for the production of ATP during glycolysis. As another important isozyme of PK, pyruvate kinase M2 (PKM2) exists in cells with high levels of nucleic acid synthesis, such as normal proliferating cells (e.g ...

FOXM1D potentiates PKM2‐mediated tumor glycolysis and angiogenesis [PDF]

open access: yesMolecular Oncology, 2020
Tumor growth, especially in the late stage, requires adequate nutrients and rich vasculature, in which PKM2 plays a convergent role. It has been reported that PKM2, together with FOXM1D, is upregulated in late‐stage colorectal cancer and associated with metastasis; however, their underlying mechanism for promoting tumor progression remains elusive ...

Effects of PKM2 on global metabolic changes and prognosis in hepatocellular carcinoma: from gene expression to drug discovery

open access: yesBMC Cancer, 2018
Background Hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) is a malignant tumor that threatens global human health. High PKM2 expression is widely reported in multiple cancers, especially in HCC.
