Disrupting peroxisomes alters lipid metabolism in melanoma and uncovers a novel therapeutic vulnerability in combination with MAPK-targeted therapies
2022-10-27
Abstract excerpt
Melanomas reprogram their metabolism to rapidly adapt to therapy-induced stress conditions, allowing them to persist and ultimately develop resistance. We report that a subpopulation of melanoma cells tolerate MAPK pathway inhibitors (MAPKi) through a concerted metabolic reprogramming mediated by peroxisomes and UDP-glucose ceramide glycosyltransferase (UGCG). Compromising peroxisome biogenesis, by repressing PEX3...
