项目摘要

Project Summary Altered metabolism is a hallmark of malignancy. Metabolic pathway changes contribute to cancer cell growth, transformation and survival. These differences can be exploited to image tumor tissue and provide predictive information to patients. Importantly, these metabolic differences can also be exploited therapeutically. Thus, understanding cancer metabolism has important implications for pathophysiology and clinical oncology. Progress in translating these studies into new therapies is limited by the fact that much of knowledge in tumor metabolism is derived from studies in cultured cells with unknown relevance to disease biology. Similarly, cell line xenografts may not accurately recapitulate the cellular heterogeneity of a primary tumor. For these reasons, little is known about tumor metabolism in vivo, and the factors that regulate this behavior. My proposal utilizes clinical samples wherein the metabolic behavior of the primary human tumor is evaluated and characterized. These tissues are translated to mouse models, where I will evaluate what metabolic phenotypes are retained, as well as test what intrinsic and extrinsic factors promote metabolic behavior. During the mentored phase of the grant, I will focus on identifying retained/intrinsic metabolic phenotypes, as well as extrinsic factors such as the role of tumor perfusion on nutrient preference. With these insights, I will continue independent research focusing on the molecular details of these factors, to identify combinations of factors influencing cancer metabolism in vivo.

项目摘要改变新陈代谢是恶性肿瘤的标志。代谢途径变化有助于癌细胞生长，转变和生存。这些差异可以被利用为图像肿瘤组织并提供预测性向患者提供信息。重要的是，这些代谢差异也可以治疗。因此，了解癌症代谢对病理生理学和临床肿瘤学具有重要意义。将这些研究转化为新疗法的进展受到肿瘤知识的许多知识的限制代谢来自于与疾病生物学相关的培养细胞中的研究。同样，细胞线异种移植物可能无法准确概括原发性肿瘤的细胞异质性。由于这些原因，关于体内肿瘤代谢以及调节这种行为的因素知之甚少。我的建议使用了评估和表征原发性人类肿瘤的代谢行为的临床样本。这些组织被翻译成小鼠模型，我将评估保留哪些代谢表型，以及测试哪些固有和外在因素促进了代谢行为。在指导的阶段 Grant，我将专注于确定保留/内在的代谢表型以及外部因素，例如肿瘤灌注对营养偏好的作用。有了这些见解，我将继续独立研究重点关于这些因素的分子细节，以确定影响癌症代谢的因素的组合体内。
