Ataxia-Telangiectasia Mutated Modulation of Carbon Metabolism in Cancer
نویسندگان
چکیده
The ataxia-telangiectasia mutated (ATM) protein kinase has been extensively studied for its role in the DNA damage response and its association with the disease ataxia telangiectasia. There is increasing evidence that ATM also plays an important role in other cellular processes, including carbon metabolism. Carbon metabolism is highly dysregulated in cancer due to the increased need for cellular biomass. A number of recent studies report a non-canonical role for ATM in the regulation of carbon metabolism. This review highlights what is currently known about ATM's regulation of carbon metabolism, the implication of these pathways in cancer, and the development of ATM inhibitors as therapeutic strategies for cancer.

Heme oxygenase-1 and carbon monoxide modulate DNA repair through ataxia-telangiectasia mutated (ATM) protein.
Stability and repair of DNA is of principal importance in cell survival. Heme oxygenase-1 (HO-1; Hmox1) is critical in maintaining cellular homeostasis, in large part through its ability to generate CO, but neither molecule has been studied in the setting of DNA damage. Naïve Hmox1(-/-) mice exhibit excessive tissue levels of γ-histone H2A, whereas administration of genotoxic stressors or irrad...
متن کاملAtaxia telangiectasia-related protein is involved in the phosphorylation of BRCA1 following deoxyribonucleic acid damage.
The breast/ovarian cancer susceptibility gene BRCA1 exerts its tumor suppressor function, at least in part, by participating in DNA repair and/or DNA damage-responsive pathways. BRCA1 protein is hyperphosphorylated following various DNA-damaging events. Here, we report that the ataxia telangiectasia mutated protein-related protein kinase (ATR) is involved in the phosphorylation of BRCA1 followi...

AIM To investigate glucose and insulin metabolism in participants with ataxia telangiectasia in the absence of a diagnosis of diabetes. METHODS A standard oral glucose tolerance test was performed in participants with ataxia telangiectasia (n = 10) and in a control cohort (n = 10). Serial glucose and insulin measurements were taken to permit cohort comparisons of glucose-insulin homeostasis a...

ATM, the gene product mutated in the cancer susceptibility syndrome ataxia-telangiectasia, is related to proteins involved in DNA repair and cell-cycle control, perhaps explaining how ATM prevents carcinogenesis.
متن کاملOxidative stress in ataxia telangiectasia.
Ataxia telangiectasia is one of a group of recessive hereditary genomic instability disorders and is characterized by progressive neurodegeneration, immunodeficiency and cancer susceptibility. Heterozygotes for the mutated gene are more susceptible to cancer and to ischaemic heart disease. The affected gene, ATM (ataxia telangiectasia mutated), has been cloned and codes for a protein kinase (AT...
