The phosphatidylinositol‑3‑kinase catalytic subunit α (PIK3CA) gene is mutated in numerous human cancers. This mutation promotes the proliferation of tumor cells; however, the underlying mechanism is still not clear. In the present study, it was revealed that the PIK3CA mutation in colorectal cancer (CRC) HCT116 (MUT) rendered the cells more dependent on glutamine by regulating the glutamic‑pyruvate...
