Posttranscriptional Upregulation of IDH1 by HuR Establishes a Powerful Survival Phenotype in Pancreatic Cancer Cells

Abstract: Cancer aggressiveness may result from the selective pressure of a harsh nutrient-deprived microenvironment. Here we illustrate how such conditions promote chemotherapy resistance in pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC). Glucose or glutamine withdrawal resulted in a 5- to 10-fold protective effect with chemotherapy treatment. PDAC xenografts were less sensitive to gemcitabine in hypoglycemic mice compared with hyperglycemic mice. Consistent with this observation, patients receiving adjuvant gemcitabine (n = … Show more

“…In pancreatic cancer cells, HuR, a RNA-binding protein binds to and stabilizes IDH1 transcript. Elevated IDH1 levels promote chemoresistance in these cells by augmenting antioxidant defense mechanism (36). A recent report suggests that exogenously expressed FOXO3A transactivates IDH1.…”

“…Cells were plated in 96-well plates at 10 3 cells per well and treated the next day with THZ1 at various concentrations. After 5 d of incubation, cell growth was measured using Quant-it PicoGreen dsDNA assay kit (Invitrogen; Zarei et al, 2017). To estimate cell death, cells were trypsinized and counted after Trypan blue staining (Invitrogen) with a Hausser brightline hemocytometer (Thermo Fisher Scientific).…”

“…Cancer cells are characterized by an accelerated metabolism and an increased demand for glucose and other nutrients. Therefore, the overexpression of the wild-type IDH1 is often associated with the uncontrolled growth and survival of numerous cancers, including non-small cell lung carcinoma [9], primary glioblastomas (GBMs) [10], pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma [11] and several hematological malignancies such as lymphomas or leukemias [12,13]. On the other hand, mutations of the genes encoding the IDH1 enzyme have also been found in several cancers, mainly in about 80% of low-grade gliomas and secondary GBMs, about 40% of T cell lymphomas and in about of 10% of myeloid leukemias [13,14].…”
