Overview of Gene Research
Psat1, or phosphoserine aminotransferase 1, is an enzyme in the serine biosynthesis pathway (SBP) [1,2,3,4,6,7,8,9]. SBP is a branch of glycolysis, and Psat1 is crucial for the production of metabolites like α-ketoglutarate (α-KG) and glutamine [1,7]. These metabolites play roles in bioenergetics, biomass generation, and as cofactors for chromatin modifiers, thus having broad impacts on cell biology [1].
Gene inactivation studies, such as in muscle stem cells (MuSCs), have shown that Psat1 ablation leads to defective expansion of MuSCs and impaired muscle regeneration [1]. This indicates that Psat1-generated α-KG and glutamine are essential for MuSC activation and myogenic progenitor expansion [1]. In old mice, reduced levels of Psat1, α-KG, and glutamine in MuSCs result in impaired muscle regeneration, which can be restored by α-KG or glutamine supplementation [1].
In cancer research, targeting PSAT1 shows promise. For example, in tumors with the p53-72Pro variant, depleting PSAT1 restores the interaction between p5372P and PGC-1α, suppressing metastasis [2]. In triple-negative breast cancer, miR-195-5p/PSAT1 regulatory axis exists, and upregulating miR-195-5p inhibits tumor behavior [3]. In estrogen receptor-negative breast cancer, PSAT1 promotes metastasis via the p-AKT/SP1/ITGA2 axis [4]. In clear cell renal cell carcinoma, PSAT1 enhances the efficacy of the prognosis estimation nomogram model [5]. In colorectal cancer, siRNA-mediated knockdown of PSAT1 promotes cell migration, invasion, proliferation, colony formation, and the EMT process, with PSAT1 affecting EMT by regulating the PI3K/AKT signaling pathway [6]. In breast cancer cells, PSAT1's unique catalytic property enables metabolic adaptation to glutamine blockade [7]. In high-glucose-induced retinal pigment epithelial cell injury, upregulating PSAT1 can attenuate cell apoptosis and oxidative stress [8]. In hepatoblastoma, LATS2 affects ferroptosis through the YAP1/ATF4/PSAT1 axis [9].
In summary, Psat1 is essential in multiple biological processes, especially in muscle stem cell activation and regeneration. Its role in various diseases, particularly cancer, has been highlighted through gene-inactivation models. These studies on Psat1 provide insights into its biological functions and potential therapeutic strategies for related diseases.
