Abstract:Background: Glutamine-driven anaplerosis maintains the tricarboxylic acid (TCA) cycle by replenishing its carbon source of intermediates with the glutamine-derived carbons in cancer cells. Long noncoding RNA urothelial cancer associated 1 (UCA1), initially identified in bladder cancer, is associated with multiple cellular processes, including metabolic reprogramming. However, its characteristics in the anaplerosis context of bladder cancer (BLCA) remains elusive. Methods: The mechanism of UCA1 bound to and fac… Show more
