Outline of Final Research Achievements |
In this study, we investigated whether cellular metabolism can be explored as novel therapeutic target of small cell lung cancer (SCLC). We found that neuroendocrine tumors, a subset of lung cancer, exhibit substantial expression of Pkm1. Functional analyses revealed that Pkm1, but not Pkm2, can fully support proliferation of the SCLC cell-lines, suggesting their dependence on Pkm1. We also found that an inhibitor on NAD salvage suppresses growth of PKM1-expressing cancer cells, suggesting a therapeutic strategy for PKM1-positive tumors such as SCLC
