Fig. 5. L2HGDH and OGDH downregulation increase L2HG levels and induce ATF4 in CRC.

A Schematic pathway of L2HG and D2HG production (left) and the mRNA expression of ADHFE1, L2HGDH, OGDH, and DLST in paired non-neoplastic and CRC tissues (right). mRNA levels were measured using microarray analysis. B Representative chromatograms (left) and levels (right) of L2HG in HT29 cells transfected with OGDH and/or L2HGDH siRNA. Data represent the mean ± SD of three independent experiments. C ATF4 protein expression in the whole and nuclear fractions of OGDH and L2HGDH knockdown HT29 cells. D Effect of OGDH and L2HGDH knockdown on the mRNA expression of ATF4 target genes in HT29 cells. mRNA levels were measured using real-time PCR. Data are the average of three technical replicates and are representative of at least two independent experiments with similar results. E S6K phosphorylation in OGDH and L2HGDH knockdown HT29 cells. F Effect of Torin1 (250 nM) on the expression of nuclear ATF4 in OGDH and L2HGDH knockdown HT29 cells.
