| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
Five of six lung squamous cell carcinoma cell lines exhibited glutamine- dependence. The extent of dependence was correlated with the mRNA levels of GLS1/GLS2. The
proliferation of Sq-1, LK-2, LC-1/sq, EBC-1 and RERF-LCAI cells was significantly decreased in Gln-depleted medium. In contrast, no significant inhibition of cell proliferation was observed in the QG56 cell line at either 72 or 120 h.
When mRNA expression ratio of GLS1/GLS2 is essential for Gln dependence in lung squamous cell carcinoma cell lines, the relative mRNA level of GLS1 was markedly higher than that of GLS2 in all cell lines. We found that GLS1 may be also essential to glutaminolysis in lung squamous cell carcinoma cell lines.
