Hypoxia-driven oncometabolite L-2HG maintains “stemness”-differentiation balance and facilitates immune suppression in pancreatic cancer
2020-05-10
Abstract excerpt
2-hydroxyglutarate (2-HG) has gained considerable importance in glioma and blood cancers that have mutations in the IDH1/2 gene. In the current study we show for the first time that pancreatic tumors produce 2HG in the absence of IDH1/2 mutation. Our study shows that hypoxic pancreatic tumors that have activated lactate dehydrogenase (LDH) activity, produce the L-isoform of 2HG. Metabolic mass spectrometric analys...
