Wild-Type IDH Enzymes as Actionable Targets for Cancer Therapy

Abstract: Isocitrate dehydrogenases (IDHs) are enzymes that catalyze the oxidative decarboxylation of isocitrate, producing α-ketoglutarate (αKG) and CO2. The discovery of IDH1 and IDH2 mutations in several malignancies has brought to the approval of drugs targeting IDH1/2 mutants in cancers. Here, we summarized findings addressing the impact of IDH mutants in rare pathologies and focused on the relevance of non-mutated IDH enzymes in tumors. Several pieces of evidence suggest that the enzymatic inhibition of IDHs may h… Show more

“…Some cancers, such as glioblastoma, chondrosarcoma, leukemia and colorectal cancer, have mutations in isocitrate dehydrogenase 1/2 (IDH1/2) [13,[39][40][41]. Mutant IDH1/2 uses NADPH to convert α-ketoglutarate (α-KG) into D-2HG, an oncometabolite that causes hypermethylation at…”

“…IDH exists in three isozymes, namely IDH1, IDH2 and IDH3. IDH1, located in the cytosol and peroxisome, is encoded by the IDH1 gene on chromosome 2q34, while IDH2 is localized in the mitochondria and is encoded by the gene located on chromosome 15q26.1 [41]. Both enzymes are NADP-dependent, share high degree of homology and conduct a reversible reaction to maintain the isocitrate pool [12].…”
