Induction of a metabolic switch from glucose to ketone metabolism programs ketogenic diet-induced therapeutic vulnerability in lung cancer

To explore metabolic vulnerabilities in lung cancer, relating to ketone metabolism Next, we performed RNA-sequencing on TS and Adh cells, subjected to glucose limitations to map out common biological processes distinctive to respective cell type and to compare their gene expression profile when glucose is limited We performed gene expression profiling analysis using data obtained from RNA-seq of both TS and Adh cell lines, with and without glucose limitation. Treatments: WT - Wild-type UL - Glucose-limiting conditions (1.4mM glucose) for 48 hours, HG - Cultured in high glucose (25mM glucose) for 48 hours, ULG - Glucose-limiting conditions (1.4mM glucose) for 48 hours, Early - Low passage of derived cell line.
