Mitochondrial oxidative phosphorylation TRAP(1)ped in tumor cells

Abstract

Many tumors undergo a dramatic metabolic shift known as the Warburg effect in which glucose utilization is favored and oxidative phosphorylation is downregulated, even when oxygen availability is plentiful. However, the mechanistic basis for this switch has remained unclear. Recently several independent groups identified tumor necrosis factor receptor-associated protein 1 (TRAP1), a mitochondrial molecular chaperone of the heat shock protein 90 (Hsp90) family, as a key modulator of mitochondrial respiration. Although all reports agree that this activity of TRAP1 has important implications for neoplastic progression, data from the different groups only partially overlap, suggesting that TRAP1 may have complex and possibly contextual effects on tumorigenesis. In this review we analyze these recent findings and attempt to reconcile these observations.

Each is checked against this paper’s own text: does it say what the citing paper says it does?

  • A hypoxia response element exists in the IL-1β promoter.

    “The finding that hypoxia was capable of inducing IL-1β production in astrocytes in an NF-κB-independent, HIF-1α-dependent, mechanism 28 led to the discovery of a HRE in the IL-1β promoter 2.”
  • Succinate production is enhanced during inflammation, acting as a signal from mitochondria to cytosol to activate pro-inflammatory gene expression and generating ROS as a pro-inflammatory redox signal.

    “The production of succinate is also enhanced during inflammation13, acting as a signal from mitochondria to the cytosol to activate pro-inflammatory gene expression while also generating ROS as a further pro-inflammatory redox signal28.”
  • DMM decreases inflammation in a mouse model of sepsis.

    “DMM could also decrease inflammation in a mouse model of sepsis28.”

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
