Emerging evidence suggests that proline metabolism is important for regulating the survival and death of different types of cancer cells. Proline dehydrogenase (PRODH), an enzyme catalyzing proline catabolism, and the degradation products of proline by ...

Understanding the role of key amino acids in regulation of proline dehydrogenase/proline oxidase (prodh/pox)-dependent apoptosis/autophagy as an approach to targeted cancer therapy [PDF]
AbstractIn stress conditions, as neoplastic transformation, amino acids serve not only as nutrients to maintain the cell survival but also as mediators of several regulatory pathways which are involved in apoptosis and autophagy. Especially, under glucose deprivation, in order to maintain the cell survival, proline and glutamine together with other ...

Association study of the G-protein signaling 4 (RGS4) and proline dehydrogenase (PRODH) genes with schizophrenia: a meta-analysis [PDF]
Schizophrenia is a devastating psychiatric disease that affects up to 1% of the population worldwide. Recent studies suggested that schizophrenia might result from the hypofunction of glutamatergic neurotransmission. Systematic positional, expression and functional studies have implicated the regulator of G-protein signaling 4 (RGS4) and proline ...

Sources of superoxide/H2O2 during mitochondrial proline oxidation
p53 Inducible gene 6 (PIG6) encodes mitochondrial proline dehydrogenase (PRODH) and is up-regulated several fold upon p53 activation. Proline dehydrogenase is proposed to generate radicals that contribute to cancer cell apoptosis.

Plants facing adverse conditions usually alter proline (Pro) metabolism, generating changes that help restore the cellular homeostasis. These organisms synthesize Pro from glutamate (Glu) or ornithine (Orn) by two-step reactions that share Δ1 pyrroline-5-

Connexin43 Deficiency Leads to Ventricular Arrhythmias by Reprogramming Proline Metabolism. [PDF]
The study demonstrated that connexin43 (Cx43) knockout caused arrhythmic phenotype and decreased proline content in vitro and in vivo. Mechanistically, Cx43 interacts with the amino acid transporter SNAT2 (sodium‐dependent neutral amino acid transporter), and its deficiency disrupts proline transport and metabolism.

Emerging Roles of De Novo Proline Biosynthesis in Human Diseases. [PDF]
De novo proline synthesis, a multi‐step biochemical pathway starting from glutamate, supplies essential protein building blocks. It supports redox balance, cell proliferation, signal transduction, and nucleotide and protein biosynthesis. This tightly regulated pathway, governed by conserved mechanisms, is disrupted in diseases such as cancer and ...

PRODH Polymorphisms, Cortical Volumes and Thickness in Schizophrenia [PDF]
Schizophrenia is a neurodevelopmental disorder with high heritability. Several lines of evidence indicate that the PRODH gene may be related to the disorder.

Δ(1)-pyrroline-5-carboxylate/glutamate biogenesis is required for fungal virulence and sporulation. [PDF]
Proline dehydrogenase (Prodh) and Δ(1)-pyrroline-5-carboxylate dehydrogenase (P5Cdh) are two key enzymes in the cellular biogenesis of glutamate.
