Biochem/physiol Actions

LY345899 (LY354899) is a methylenetetrahydrofolate dehydrogenase inhibitor (MTHFD1 IC50 = 96 nM with 30 μM folitixorin and 400 μM NADP+; MTHFD2 IC50 = 663 nM with 5 μM folitixorin and 250 μM NAD+) that exerts antiproliferation activity against cancer cells by targeting the folate cycle. Co-administer LY345899 with the dihydrofolate reductase (DHFR) inhibitor methotrexate (MTX) overcomes AML MTX resistance (50 mg/kg) in mice in vivo (10 mg/kg q.o.d. i.p.).

Metabolic reprogramming by oncogenic signaling is a hallmark of cancer. Hyperactivation of Wnt/β-catenin signaling has been reported in hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC). However, the mechanisms inducing hyperactivation of Wnt/β-catenin signaling and strategies for targeting this pathway are incompletely understood. In this

The folate metabolism enzyme MTHFD2 (methylenetetrahydrofolate dehydrogenase/cyclohydrolase) is consistently overexpressed in cancer but its roles are not fully characterized, and current candidate inhibitors have limited potency for clinical development. In the present study, we demonstrate a role for MTHFD2 in

The mechanism by which redox metabolism regulates the fates of acute myeloid leukemia (AML) cells remains largely unknown. Using a highly sensitive, genetically encoded fluorescent sensor of nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide phosphate (NADPH), iNap1, we find three heterogeneous subpopulations of AML

Antigenic stimulation promotes T cell metabolic reprogramming to meet increased biosynthetic, bioenergetic, and signaling demands. We show that the one-carbon (1C) metabolism enzyme methylenetetrahydrofolate dehydrogenase 2 (MTHFD2) regulates de novo purine synthesis and signaling in activated T cells to promote proliferation and
