Abstract

AbstractMetabolic reprogramming is a hallmark of human malignancies. Dysregulation of glutamine metabolism is essential for tumorigenesis, microenvironment remodeling, and therapeutic resistance. Based on the untargeted metabolomics sequencing, we identified that the glutamine metabolic pathway was up-regulated in the serum of patients with primary DLBCL. High levels of glutamine were associated with inferior clinical outcomes, indicative of the prognostic value of glutamine in DLBCL. In contrast, the derivate of glutamine alpha-ketoglutarate (α-KG) was negatively correlated with the invasiveness features of DLBCL patients. Further, we found that treatment with the cell-permeable derivative of α-KG, known as DM-αKG, significantly suppressed tumor growth by inducing apoptosis and non-apoptotic cell death. Accumulation of a-KG promoted oxidative stress in double-hit lymphoma (DHL), which depended on malate dehydrogenase 1 (MDH1)-mediated 2-hydroxyglutarate (2-HG) conversion. High levels of reactive oxygen species (ROS) contributed to ferroptosis induction by promoting lipid peroxidation and TP53 activation. In particular, TP53 overexpression derived from oxidative DNA damage, further leading to the activation of ferroptosis-related pathways. Our study demonstrated the importance of glutamine metabolism in DLBCL progression and highlighted the potential application of α-KG as a novel therapeutic strategy for DHL patients.
