1 In Vivo Evidence for Serine Biosynthesis-Defined Sensitivity of Lung Metastasis, but Not of Primary Breast Tumors, to mTORC1 Inhibition. Serine CREB regulated transcription coactivator 1 Mus musculus
2 We discovered that breast-cancer-derived lung metastases, but not the corresponding primary breast tumors, use the serine biosynthesis pathway to support mTORC1 growth signaling. Serine CREB regulated transcription coactivator 1 Mus musculus
3 Mechanistically, pyruvate uptake through Mct2 supported mTORC1 signaling by fueling serine biosynthesis-derived alpha-ketoglutarate production in breast-cancer-derived lung metastases. Serine CREB regulated transcription coactivator 1 Mus musculus
4 Consequently, expression of the serine biosynthesis enzyme PHGDH was required for sensitivity to the mTORC1 inhibitor rapamycin in breast-cancer-derived lung tumors, but not in primary breast tumors. Serine CREB regulated transcription coactivator 1 Mus musculus
