(A) Data presented in Fig. 1D were re-analyzed to visualize a significant N-Myc-mediated effect on glutathione (GSH) metabolism. In total, 32 out of 34 GSH-related metabolites are significantly affected by N-Myc levels according to ANOVA. (B) Main routes of the glutathione pathway (modified from30). Metabolites which are significantly affected by N-Myc for the sample groups under constant glucose and varying glutamine concentration in the medium are marked by red boxes. Interestingly, all significantly altered species are found to be decreased upon MYCN induction. Metabolites that have not been detected by UPLC are greyed (AA: amino acid, BCKA: branched chain keto acids, F-6-P: fructose-6-phosphate, GSSG: glutathione disulfide, LOOH: lipid hydroxyperoxide, LOH: lipid peroxyl radical, NA-cysteine: N-acetyl-cysteine, OTC: oxothiazolidine-4-carboxylate, R-5-P: ribose-5-phosphate, R, R*: radicals, X: xenobiotic). (C,D) Redox modulation by addition of GSH (100 mM) in the presence of varying concentrations of DON (C) or the ROS-inducer mono-methyl fumarate (MMF, D) in SHEP-TR-MYCN cells with or without induction of MYCN expression (“+Tet” and “−Tet”, respectively).
