项目摘要
Metastasis is the primary cause of cancer death, yet therapeutic strategies to inhibit metastatic invasion do not
exist. The long-term goal of our research program is to define the molecular mechanisms driving metastatic
invasion, with the goal of identifying novel therapeutic targets and strategies to improve cancer survival. While
tumor cells are known to undergo metabolic reprogramming to support tumor growth, the metabolic drivers of
metastasis are poorly understood. This proposed research will define how stored lipids are used as a fuel
source to power metastatic invasion in pancreatic cancer. We have preliminary data that pancreatic tumor cells
undergo a shift towards lipid storage, and that this is required for invasion. This occurs through a suppression
of the hormone sensitive lipase (HSL) by the oncogene KRAS, leading to lipid accumulation and priming tumor
cells for metastasis. These stored lipid droplets are then catabolized during the process of invasion via the
action of lipases. This results in increased oxidative metabolism in the most migratory cells, thereby
coordinating lipid droplet breakdown and fatty acid oxidation with cell migration. These data lead to the
hypothesis for this proposed research that PDAC cells undergo a metabolic shift to favor the accumulation
and storage of lipid droplets, which are catabolized during invasive migration to fuel oxidative phosphorylation
to power metastasis. Using a combination of cell biology, biochemistry, and in vivo models, we will test this
hypothesis by defining the mechanisms of lipase suppression leading to lipid droplet storage (Aim 1), and the
coordinated and localized activation of lipolysis to drive tumor cell invasion (Aim 2). Successful completion of
this research will provide fundamental advances in defining the metabolic pathways regulating invasive
migration, with a focus on lipid droplets, and with the goal of identifying metabolic vulnerabilities in tumor cells
that will provide targets for therapy to block metastasis and improve survival.
转移是癌症死亡的主要原因,但是抑制转移性侵袭的治疗策略却不

与细胞迁移一起协调脂质液滴分解和脂肪酸氧化。这些数据导致
这项提出的研究假设PDAC细胞经历了代谢转移以有利于积累

这将提供治疗的靶标,以阻止转移并改善生存率。
