Abstract

Pancreatic cancer is one of the most lethal types of cancer, due to difficulty in early detection and the limited efficacy of available treatments. Erlotinib is used to inhibit the epidermal growth factor receptor for the treatment of pancreatic cancer; however, erlotinib resistance is a major issue and the mechanisms underlying the development of erlotinib resistance remain unclear. To better understand the alterations in tumor metabolism by acquired resistance to erlotinib, an erlotinib-resistant pancreatic cancer cell line (HPAC-ER) was established, followed by a comparison of the metabolic characteristics between these cells and their erlotinib-sensitive parental cells (HPAC). This comparison was accomplished through mass spectrometry-based targeted metabolic profiling. Five metabolite groups (acylcarnitines, amino acids and biogenic amines, glycerophospholipids, sphingolipids and monosaccharides) were semi-quantified and compared statistically. These results revealed significant differences between the two groups of cells. A significant increase in the level of short-chain acylcarnitines and selected lysophosphatidylcholines, and a significant decrease in the level of acyl-alkyl-phosphatidylcholines and one sphingolipid, w...Continue Reading

Cancer Metabolism

In order for cancer cells to maintain rapid, uncontrolled cell proliferation, they must acquire a source of energy. Cancer cells acquire metabolic energy from their surrounding environment and utilize the host cell nutrients to do so. Here is the latest research on cancer metabolism.
