Long non-coding RNAs (lncRNAs) are expressed aberrantly in cardiac disease, but their roles in cardiac hypertrophy are still unknown. Here we sought to identify a specific lncRNA and explore the mechanisms underlying lncRNA functions. Our results revealed that lncRNA Snhg7 was a super-enhancer-driven gene in cardiac hypertrophy by using chromatin immunoprecipitation sequencing (ChIP-seq).

Activation of serine biosynthesis supports growth and proliferation of cancer cells. Human cancers often exhibit overexpression of phosphoglycerate dehydrogenase (PHGDH), the metabolic enzyme that catalyses the reaction that diverts serine biosynthesis from the glycolytic pathway. By refueling serine biosynthetic pathways, cancer cells sustain their metabolic requirements, promoting macromolecule synthesis, anaplerotic flux and ATP.

The amino acid Glutamine is converted into Glutamate by a deamidation reaction catalyzed by the enzyme Glutaminase (GLS). Two isoforms of this enzyme have been described, and the GLS2 isoform is regulated by the tumor suppressor gene p53. Here, we show that the p53 family member TAp73 also drives the expression of GLS2.
