Dysregulated lipid metabolism blunts the sensitivity of cancer cells to EZH2 inhibitor.

ABSTRACT:

Background

Sensitivity has been a key issue for Enhancer of zeste homolog 2 (EZH2) inhibitors in cancer therapy. The EZH2 inhibitor EPZ-6438 was first approved by the US Food and Drug Administration (FDA) in 2020. However, its inadequate anti-cancer activity in solid tumors limits its clinical application. In this study, we utilized the multiple cancer cell lines, which are less sensitive to the EZH2 inhibitor GSK126, combining animal model and clinical data to investigate the underlying mechanism.

Methods

IncuCyte S3 was used to explore the difference in the responsiveness of hematological tumor cells and solid tumor cells to GSK126. Transcriptome and metabolome of B16F10 cells after GSK126 treatment were analyzed and the distinct changes in the metabolic profile were revea
