Fig. 4From: Cysteine catabolism and the serine biosynthesis pathway support pyruvate production during pyruvate kinase knockdown in pancreatic cancer cellsPHGDH and NPL dual KO does not impact growth rate and pyruvate generation from glucose. a Average proliferation rates of 3 PHGDH/NPL dual knockouts (dual KO) clones or wild-type PDACs with vehicle (−Dox) or PKM1/2 knockdown (+Dox). Cell counts were measured daily (n = 3). b 13C-Glucose labeling of intracellular metabolites for 60 min in wild-type (WT) or PHGDH/NPL dual knockout clone D7 cells with PKM1/2 knockdown for 60 min. The y-axis for all graphs is the percent labeling of indicated 13C-isotopologue. Experiments were performed in triplicates, and all data are displayed as the mean values ± standard errorBack to article page
