ACSS2 Antibody

1. High ACSS2 expression is associated with renal cell carcinoma. PMID: 29503142
2. A novel biologic role for ACSS2 in recycling of nuclear acetate for histone acetylation to promote lysosomal and autophagy-related gene expression and counteract nutritional stress, highlighting the importance of ACSS2 in maintaining autophagy and lysosome-mediated cellular energy homeostasis during tumor development. PMID: 28820290
3. ACLY and ACSS2 are both activated to produce cytosolic Ac-CoA from glucose carbon for lipogenesis during human cytomegalovirus infection. PMID: 28167750
4. ACSS2 is an important factor for promoting RCC development and is essential for cell migration and invasion, which it promotes by increasing the expression of LAMP1. PMID: 29444517
5. these findings suggest that downregulation of acetyl-CoA synthetase-2 expression is a metabolic hallmark of tumor progression and aggressive behavior in colorectal carcinoma. PMID: 27713423
6. Exogenous acetate augments Acss2/HIF-2 dependent cancer growth and metastasis in cell culture and mouse models PMID: 29281714
7. The nuclear-cytosolic acetyl-CoA synthetase 2 recaptures acetate released from histone deacetylation for recycling by histone acetyltransferases. PMID: 28099844
8. In a Honduran population, the odds of having nonsyndromic cleft lip/palate (NSCLP) among carriers of the ACSS2 variant was 4.0 with a carrier frequency of 7.1% in unrelated affected and 1.9% in unrelated unaffected individuals. In a Colombian population, the odds of having NSCLP among carriers of the ACSS2 variant was 2.6 with a carrier frequency of 10.0% in unrelated affected and 4.1% in unrelated unaffected individuals. PMID: 28543373
9. In the nucleus, ACSS2 binds to transcription factor EB and translocates to lysosomal and autophagy gene promoter regions, where ACSS2 incorporates acetate generated from histone acetylation turnover to locally produce acetyl-CoA for histone H3 acetylation in these regions and promote lysosomal biogenesis, autophagy, cell survival, and brain tumorigenesis. PMID: 28552616
10. ACSS2 is essential for glucose-independent acetate-mediated cell survival and tumor growth. PMID: 27539851
11. Loss of ACSS2 expression is associated with with gastric cancer. PMID: 26381042
12. Study revealed that the activity of acetyl-CoA synthetase 2 (ACSS2) contributes to cancer cell growth under low-oxygen and lipid-depleted conditions. PMID: 25584894
13. Observations suggest that ACSS2 is expressed to a significant extent in particular tumor types, including triple-negative breast cancers. PMID: 25525877
14. Study shows that ACSS2 is upregulated in the human orthotopic tumor and primary human tumors, as well as a murine glioma model; the tumors do not oxidize [U-(13)C]glutamine. In vivo oxidation of [1,2-(13)C]acetate was validated in brain tumor patients and was correlated with expression of acetyl-CoA synthetase enzyme 2, ACSS2. PMID: 25525878
15. During hypoxia, ACSS2 modulates interactions of the acetylase/coactivator CBP with the stress-responsive transcription factor, HIF-2. These interactions include acetylation of HIF-2 by CBP as well as stable HIF-2/CBP complex formation, both of which are required for maximal HIF-2 signaling. Thus, ACSS2 links changes in metabolism that occur during stress with activation of a selective nuclear signaling pathway. PMID: 25108527
16. Ritonavir (at 100 mg once daily and 100 mg twice daily significantly down-regulated acyl-CoA synthetase short-chain family member 2 in 20 healthy individuals. PMID: 20353815
17. Because the activity of a bacterial ortholog of AceCS2, called ACS, is controlled via deacetylation by a bacterial sirtuin protein, our observation highlights the conservation of a metabolic regulatory pathway from bacteria to humans PMID: 16788062
18. The patterns of (18)F-FDG and (11)C-acetate uptake seemed to complement each other in both human HCC and HCC cell lines. PMID: 19617323
