| Study Title | Respiration defects limit serine synthesis required for lung cancer growth and survival - Effect of Polg mutation in NSCLC Tissues |
| Study Summary | This study investigates the impact of mtDNA mutation burden induced by the PolG D256A mutation in NSCLC. Using in vivo (GEMMs), we characterized the metabolic profile of NSCLC harboring this mutation compared to controls. Here, we show that PolG mutation causes mitochondrial dysfunction, impacting serine/glycine metabolism as well as energy metabolism through glycolysis. This study was conducted in animals divided into two age groups. The "young" group consisted of animals in which NSCLC was initiated at 3 months of age, while the "old" group included animals whose tumors were initiated at 10 months of age. WT: Wild Type animals KP: NSCLC conditional animals PolG: Animals with PolG mutation PGKP: NSCLC conditional animals with PolG mutation |

| Project Title: | Respiration defects limit serine synthesis required for lung cancer growth and survival |
| Project Type: | Pool Size Metabolomic in vivo |
| Project Summary: | Mitochondrial function supports energy and anabolic metabolism. Pathogenic mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA) mutations impair these processes, causing mitochondrial diseases. Their role in human cancers is less clear; while some cancers harbor high mtDNA mutation burden, others do not. Here we show that a proofreading mutant of DNA polymerase gamma (PolGD256A) increases the mtDNA mutation burden in non-small-cell lung cancer (NSCLC). This mutation promotes the accumulation of defective mitochondria, reduces tumor cell proliferation and viability, and improves cancer survival. In NSCLC, pathogenic mtDNA mutations enhance glycolysis and create a glucose dependency to support mitochondrial energy, but at the expense of a lower NAD⁺/NADH ratio that hinders de novo serine synthesis. Thus, mitochondrial function in NSCLC is essential for maintaining adequate serine synthesis, which in turn supports the anabolic metabolism and redox homeostasis required for tumor growth, explaining why these cancers preserve functional mtDNA. |

| Collection Summary: | Extraction of polar metabolites from solid tissues: 20 to 30 mg of tissues were weighed and added to a 2 mL round-tipped microtube with a – 80° C cold Yttria Grinding Ball per tube. The tissues were pulverized in CryoMill (Retsch) following alternating three cycles at 5 Hz for 2 min with three cycles at 25 Hz for 2 min. Buffer was added to each 2 mL microtube (sample weight x 40)/2 volume of the buffer) 40:40:20 buffer with 0.5% formic acid, samples were vigorously vortexed and incubated on ice for 10 minutes, vortexed, and incubated for an additional 10 min. After the samples were centrifuged for 10 min at 16,000g at 4° C, the supernatant A was collected and saved, and the pellets were submitted to re-extraction following the same procedure to generate supernatant B. Supernatant A and B were mixed and transferred to a clean 1.5 mL microtube with the appropriated volume of 15% NH4CO3. The samples were stored in a -80° C freezer until analysis by LC-MS. Extraction of polar metabolites from plasma:To extract polar metabolites from mouse plasma 40 µL of cold methanol was added to a 15 µL of mouse plasma in a 1.5 mL microtube. This mixture was vortexed for 10 seconds and incubated for 20 minutes in a -20° C freezer. Samples were centrifuged for 10 min at 16,000g at 4° C. Next, supernatant A was collected in a new tube, and the pellet was saved for re-extraction. For re-extraction, the pellet was resuspended in 200 µL of 40:40:20 buffer, vortexed, and allowed to sit on ice for 10 min. The samples were centrifuged for 10 min at 16,000 g at 4° C. Supernatant B was collected and mixed with supernatant A. This mixture was further processed to remove phospholipids using 1 mL Phenomenex (Phenomenex Inc.) tubes according to the manufacturer's instruction and stored at -80° C until analysis by LC-MS. Ion counts table: The Ion Counts table (Peaks Extracted) includes the integrated data from all tissue types analyzed: plasma, tumor, and lung. Metabolites extracted from plasma are labeled as “MetaboliteX_Plasma,” whereas those from tumors or lungs are labeled simply as “MetaboliteX.” |
