Structured Review
![A) Schematic overview of de novo nucleotide biosynthesis and nucleotide salvage pathways. Nucleosides and nucleobases are imported into the cell via hENT 1 and 2 and subsequently phosphorylated to their corresponding nucleotide monophosphates (NMPs). In parallel, nucleotides can be synthesized de novo from metabolic precursors, resulting in the formation of NMPs. Key enzymes involved in these pathways, including uridine-cytidine kinase (UCK), DHODH, and carbamoyl-phosphate synthetase 2/ aspartate transcarbamylase/ dihydroorotase (CAD), are highlighted. Both pathways can be subjected to pharmacological inhibition by agents targeting hENT1/2 (e.g., <t>dipyridamole)</t> and DHODH (e.g., BAY-2402234 and GTX-196). B) Dose-response curves for ecMRT tumoroid models 60T and 103T treated with BAY-2402234 for 120 hours in Plasmax™ medium, with or without dipyridamole (500 nM). ecMRT tumoroids treated with BAY-2402234 in KOM medium served as a reference. Data represent mean ± SD from three independent experiments, each performed with technical duplicates. Data are normalized to DMSO vehicle in KOM (100%). The grey dotted horizontal line represents a viability of 50% (IC 50 ). C-D) Dose-response curves for ecMRT tumoroid model 103T treated with BAY-2402234 (panel C ) or GTX-196 (panel D) for 120 hours in KOM supplemented with 30 μM uridine, with or without different concentrations of dipyridamole. Data represent mean ± SD from three independent drug matrix experiments. Data are normalized to DMSO vehicle (100%). The grey dotted horizontal line represents a viability of 50% (IC 50 ). E-F) ZIP synergy landscapes for BAY-2402234 + dipyridamole (E) and GTX-196 + dipyridamole (F) , corresponding to panels C–D. ZIP scores >10 indicate synergistic interactions, scores between -10 and 10 represent additive effects, and scores <10 indicate antagonism. Regions outlined in white represent the most synergistic concentration combinations. Synergy landscapes were generated using SynergyFinder software . G) Bar graph depicting the average cell viability (%) of ecMRT tumoroid models following 120-hour treatment with 5 nM GTX-196, 10 μM dipyridamole, or their combination, in the presence or absence of nucleoside supplementation. Data represent the mean ± standard deviation (SD) of n = 3 independent experiments, each performed in technical triplicates. Viability values were normalized to the DMSO vehicle control without nucleoside supplementation (set to 100%). H) Relative isotopologue distribution (fractional labeling) of CTP and UTP in two ecMRT models following 24-hour incubation with [U- 13 C 6 ]-glucose upon 48-hour treatment with DMSO vehicle or 10 μM DP, in the presence or absence of 30⍰μM uridine. Statistical testing was performed within each uridine condition. I) Isotopic labeling pattern of CTP and UTP in two ecMRT tumoroid models following 24-hour incubation with [U- 13 C 6 ]-glucose upon 48-hour treatment with DMSO vehicle, 5 nM GTX-196, 10 μM DP, or the combination thereof, in the presence or absence of 30⍰μM uridine. DMSO and GTX-196 reference data originate from the same [U- 13 C 6 ]-glucose tracing experiment as previously presented in , but are shown again to provide direct comparison across all treatment conditions. Unless specified otherwise, all conditions were statistically compared to the DMSO ctrl within each uridine condition. J) Isotopic labeling pattern of CTP and UTP in two ecMRT tumoroid models following 24-hour incubation with 30⍰μM [ 13 C 9 - 15 N 2 ]-uridine upon 48-hour treatment with DMSO vehicle, 5 nM GTX-196, 10 μM DP, or the combination thereof. DMSO and GTX-196 reference data originate from the same [ 13 C 9 - 15 N 2 ]-uridine tracing experiment as previously presented in , but are shown again to provide direct comparison across all treatment conditions.
