“…Finally, we aimed to determine the metabolic consequences of increased macropinocytosis due to inhibition of ATM. Previous studies have demonstrated that diverse nutrients including proteins, lipids, glucose, and others are taken up by macropinocytosis to promote cancer cell survival under nutrient stress (Commisso et al, 2013;Hodakoski et al, 2019;Kamphorst et al, 2015;Kim et al, 2018;Palm, 2019;Palm et al, 2017;Recouvreux and Commisso, 2017;Redelman-Sidi et al, 2018; Tejeda-Munoz et al; Zhang and Commisso, 2019). To determine the metabolites that may be important for tumors in the ATM inhibitor treated mice, we performed metabolomics on the tumor tissue, interstitial fluid, and the ascites fluid, which commonly occurs in ovarian cancer models.…”
