| Project Title: | Adaptation to cystine limitation stress confers a targetable lipid metabolism vulnerability in pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC). |
| Project Summary: | Cystine/cysteine is critical for antioxidant response and sulfur metabolism in cancer cells and is one of the most depleted amino acids in the PDAC microenvironment. The effects of cystine limitation stress (CLS) on PDAC progression are poorly understood. Here we report that adaptation to CLS (CLSA) promotes PDAC cell proliferation and tumor growth through translational upregulation of the oxidative pentose phosphate pathway (OxPPP). OxPPP activates the de novo synthesis of nucleotides and fatty acids to support tumor growth. On the other hand, CLSA-mediated lipidomic reprogramming depends on triacylglycerides synthesis to mitigate lipotoxicity. Through drug screening, we identified lomitapide as an inhibitor of CLSA PDAC tumor growth and a potent sensitizer of FOLFIRINOX chemotherapy. Mechanistically, lomitapide inhibits triacylglycerides synthesis to interfere with CLSA and chemotherapy-induced lipidomic reprograming. Taken together, CLSA-mediated metabolic and lipidomics reprograming promotes PDAC tumor growth and lomitapide could be used to target the dysregulated lipid metabolism in PDAC. |
