1. 异柠檬酸脱氢酶1（IDH1）R132H/Q突变体致癌的机理
IDH1-R132H/Q突变与多种肿瘤，特别是胶质瘤的发生密切相关。研究表明该突变体能产生大量的2-羟基戊二酸（2-HG），2-HG作为癌性代谢产物导致了肿瘤的发生，但2-HG致癌的机理仍待进一步阐明。我们从2-HG引起代谢紊乱及细胞凋亡异常方面入手对其致癌机理进行研究，鉴定2-HG引起代谢紊乱的靶点，开发针对这些靶点的抗肿瘤药物。

2. 原癌基因c-src通过改变细胞代谢模式促进肿瘤发生和转移的分子机制
肿瘤细胞代谢的一大特征是出现Warburg effect，即在有氧的情况下，肿瘤细胞主要通过提高无氧代谢糖酵解的效率来供应能量及生物合成的原料，并伴有大量乳酸的生成。这种代谢改变对肿瘤细胞的生长、增殖及迁移起重要作用。c-src是一个非常重要的原癌基因，其蛋白产物c-Src是第一个被发现的酪氨酸激酶。c-Src的高表达或过度激活与多种肿瘤的发生和转移密切相关，但其调控细胞代谢的机理还不清楚。我们研究c-Src通过改变细胞代谢模式在肿瘤发生和转移中的作用。

3. 谷氨酰胺酶GLS1在营养应激、肿瘤发生及器官发育中的作用
GLS1是谷氨酸分解代谢的关键酶，目前的研究表明其在多种恶性肿瘤中高表达，促进肿瘤增殖，因此，被认为是一个重要的肿瘤治疗靶点。我们研究发现在谷氨酰胺缺乏的情况下，GLS1能通过感受其产物谷氨酸的浓度进行结构重塑，高度激活其酶活性，进而导致细胞死亡。目前，我们在进一步研究GLS1在营养应激、肿瘤发生及器官发育中的作用，筛选能通过激活GLS1抑制肿瘤生长的小分子化合物。

4. 抑癌因子p53调控肿瘤代谢的新机理
抑癌因子p53的功能缺失与多种肿瘤发生有关，其被发现能抑制Warburg effect。我们主要研究p53对生物合成及脂代谢的调节作用。

1. Mechanisms underlying tumorigenesis driven by isocitrate dehydrogenase 1 (IDH1) R132H/Q mutations. IDH1-R132H/Q mutations are related to the generation and development of various tumors, in particular glioma. It has been well understood that it is the large amount of 2-hydroxyglutarate (2-HG) produced by these mutants that leads to tumorigenesis. However, the mechanism by which 2-HG results in tumorigenesis remains far to be clarified. We are working on the metabolic and apoptotic disorders caused by 2-HG, which may play important roles in 2-HG induced tumorigenesis.
2. The roles of metabolic alterations caused by proto-oncogene c-src in tumorigenesis and metastasis. One hallmark of cancer cell metabolism is Warburg effect, a metabolic alteration that even in the presence of oxygen, cancer cells predominantly produce energy by a high rate of glycolysis followed by lactic acid fermentation. This metabolic switch is essential for cancer cells to maintain survival, proliferation and mobility. c-src is an important proto-oncogene that encodes c-Src protein, the firstly identified tyrosine kinase. Excessive expression and/or activation of c-Src contribute to the generation and metastasis of various tumors. However, little is known about how c-Src regulates metabolism of tumor cells. One of our goals is to clarify the contribution of metabolic alterations caused by proto-oncogene c-Src to tumorigenesis and metastasis.
3. The roles of Glutaminase 1 (GLS1) in nutrient stress, tumorigenesis and organ development
GLS1, a key enzyme in glutamine catabolism, is considered as an important target for tumor therapy because it is excessively expressed in various tumor and functions to stimulated tumor proliferation. We find that upon glutamine deprivation, the structure of GLS1 is remodelled by the lower concentration of its product glutamate to stimulate its enzymatic activity which in turn leads to cell death. We are now engaged in the studies to clarify the roles of GLS1 in nutrient stress, tumorigenesis and organ development. We are also interested in screening small molecules showing strong anti-tumor activity by stimulating GLS1 activity.
4. The novel mechanisms underlying metabolic regulation by p53. Deficiency of tumor suppressor p53 is high correlated with the incidence of various tumors. p53 has been found participating in the suppression of Warburg effect, a hallmark of cancer. We focus on the regulatory effect of p53 on biosynthesis and lipid metabolism of cancer cells.
