DECR1 is an androgen-repressed survival factor that regulates PUFA oxidation to protect prostate tumor cells from ferroptosis

Abstract: Fatty acidβ -oxidation (FAO) is the main bioenergetic pathway in prostate cancer (PCa) and a promising novel therapeutic vulnerability. Here we demonstrate therapeutic efficacy of targeting FAO in clinical prostate tumors cultured ex vivo, and identify DECR1, which encodes the rate-limiting enzyme for oxidation of polyunsaturated fatty acids (PUFAs), as robustly overexpressed in PCa tissues and associated with shorter relapse-free survival.DECR1 is a negatively-regulated androgen receptor (AR) target gene and,… Show more

“…DECR1 can cause PUFA depletion in prostate cancer by encoding the rate-limiting enzyme of PUFA oxidation, thus protecting prostate cancer from ferroptosis. Targeting to DECR1 can cause PUFA to accumulate in cells, enhanced oxidative stress and lipids peroxidation, and finally induce ferroptosis (Nassar et al, 2020;Yang et al, 2021). Erastin and RSL3, showing a good ability to induce ferroptosis in prostate cancer in vitro and suppress this malignancy (Yang et al, 2021;Ghoochani A et al, 2021).…”

“…Expression of the elongated very-long-chain fatty acid protein 5 and fatty acid desaturase has been found to enhance the synthesis of more elongated and desaturated PUFA species that promote ferroptosis sensitivity [63][64] . As a rate-limiting enzyme in the β-oxidation process, 2,4-dienoyl-CoA reductase 1 is involved in the catabolism of PUFAs in mitochondria, and the loss of 2,4-dienoyl-CoA reductase 1 function may lead to the accumulation of intracellular PUFAs and increase ferroptosis sensitivity [65] .…”
