RT Journal Article T1 Therapeutic targeting of glutaminolysis as an essential strategy to combat cancer A1 Mates-Sánchez, José Manuel A1 di Paola, Floriana J.

Glutamine isalso a signaling molecule involved in essential pathways regulated by oncogenes and tumor suppressor factors.Glutaminase isoenzymes are critical proteins to control glutaminolysis, a key metabolic pathway for cell proliferationand survival that directs neoplasms’ fate. Adaptive glutamine metabolism can be altered by differentmetabolic therapies, including the use of specific allosteric inhibitors of glutaminase that can evoke synergisticeffects for the therapy of cancer patients. We also review other clinical applications of in vivo assessment ofglutaminolysis by metabolomic approaches, including diagnosis and monitoring of cancer.
