Overview

Experiments demonstrate that serine depletion increases cell death in AML, suggesting metabolic interventions may improve venetoclax effectiveness.

Key Points

  • This research aims to explore how dietary serine restriction affects the efficacy of venetoclax in treating acute myeloid leukemia.
  • Investigated the effects of serine deprivation on AML cell proliferation in culture.
  • Used isotope tracing analysis with mass spectrometry to assess serine synthesis pathway flux.
  • Conducted in vivo experiments by xenografting NSG mice with AML cells and applying dietary interventions.
  • Serine depletion significantly reduced proliferation rates of various AML cell lines.
  • Combined treatment with serine-free diet and venetoclax increased cell death and early apoptosis.
  • In vivo, mice on a serine-free diet had delayed AML progression compared to those on a regular diet.
