Abstract
Immunotherapies have significantly improved the survival of patients in many cancers over the last decade. However, primary and secondary resistances are encountered in most patients. Unravelling resistance mechanisms to cancer immunotherapies is an area of active investigation. Elevated levels of circulating enzyme lactate dehydrogenase (LDH) have been historically considered in oncology as a marker of bad prognosis, usually attributed to elevated tumour burden and cancer metabolism. Recent evidence suggests that elevated LDH levels could be independent from tumour burden and contain a negative predictive value, which could help in guiding treatment strategies in immuno-oncology. In this review, we decipher the rationale supporting the potential of LDH-targeted therapeutic strategies to tackle the direct immunosuppressive effects of LDH on a wide range of immune cells, and enhance the survival of patients treated with cancer immunotherapies.

Prognostic Significance of Lactate Dehydrogenase in Patients Undergoing Surgical Resection for Laryngeal Squamous Cell Carcinoma. Cancer Control 2021; 27:1073274820978795.

Abstract
The aim is to estimate the prognostic value of lactate dehydrogenase (LDH) in patients undergoing surgical resection for laryngeal squamous cell carcinoma (LSCC). A total of 640 resected LSCC patients were included. Preoperative lactate dehydrogenase (LDH) was assessed. Kaplan-Meier survival analysis and Cox regression analysis were conducted for overall survival (OS) and recurrence-free survival (RFS). Kaplan-Meier analysis, univariate analysis and multivariate analysis demonstrated significant prognostic value for preoperative LDH. Although LDH was predictor of OS, it failed to be a predictor of RFS. The univariate HR and 95% CI of LDH were 0.484 and 0.357-0.658 (P < 0.0001). The multivariate analysis showed that LDH (HR = 0.518, 95% CI: 0.380-0.705, p < 0.0001) was related to OS. Elevated preoperative LDH >132 IU/L was significantly associated with better survival. Preoperative LDH might be an independent prognostic marker of OS in LSCC patients undergoing surgical resection.

Abstract
Background Penile squamous cell carcinoma (PSCC) represents an important public health problem for developing countries. The major prognostic factors in PSCC are pathological subtype, perineural invasion, lymphovascular invasion, depth of invasion and grade, which are hard to obtain precisely before the operation. Besides, micro-metastases will be detected in about 30% of intermediate-risk patients with clinically non-palpable inguinal lymph nodes after inguinal lymph node dissection (ILND). It means approximately 70% of patients are unable to benefit from ILND who might suffered from the complications of surgery. We hope some biomarkers could be found which are able to predict the outcome before surgery and reflect the inguinal lymph nodes metastasis. Methods A total of 349 consecutive patients of penile cancer in Yunnan cancer hospital in China between October 2002 and December2017. Two hundred twenty-five was succeed to follow-up. The association between NLR, LMR, PLR, LDH and Overall survival (OS), progression free survival (PFS), inguinal lymph node (N stage) was analyzed with K-M analysis, univariable, multivariable logistic regression and Kendall’s tau-b correlation coefficient. Results Multivariable analysis reveal that only PLR was significant independent factor which is associated with inferior OS and PFS; Age and LDH was associated with inferior OS; Lymph node and metastatic status remained significant for OS and PFS as NCCN and EAU Guidelines indicated; the tumor type, initial treatment and NLR LMR were not significant in predicting both OS and PFS. NLR, LMR and PLR were corresponded to N stage, while LDH was not associated with the N stage based on logistic regression model analysis. NLR, LMR and PLR were found weakly related to N stage through an application of Kendall’s tau-b correlation coefficient. Conclusions PLR was significant independent factors for OS and PFS, Age and LDH was significant independent factors for OS. NLR, LMR, PLR was corresponded to N stage.

Abstract
Background: To investigate the potential prognostic role of serum lactate dehydrogenase (LDH) in patients with urothelial carcinoma (UC) using the method of systematic review and meta-analysis. Materials and Methods: We searched PubMed, Embase, Cochrane Library, and Web of Science for eligible studies up to February 2020. Pooled hazard ratios (HRs) and 95% confidence intervals (CIs) were used to estimate the relationship. Results: A total of 14 studies including 4,009 patients with UC were incorporated. The results showed that a high pretreatment serum LDH was associated with an inferior overall survival (OS, HR 1.61, 95% CI 1.39–1.87, p < 0.001), cancer-specific survival (CSS, HR 1.41, 95% CI 1.05–1.90, p = 0.022), and disease-free survival (DFS, HR 1.64, 95% CI 1.04–2.59, p = 0.034) in UC. Subgroup analyses identified that a high pretreatment serum LDH was associated with a poor OS (HR 1.97, 95% CI 1.02–3.81, p = 0.042) and DFS (HR 1.64, 95% CI 1.04–2.59, p = 0.034) in upper tract urothelial carcinoma, a short OS (HR 1.71, 95% CI 1.37–2.15, p < 0.001) in urothelial carcinoma of bladder. Conclusion: Our findings indicated that a high level of pretreatment serum LDH was associated with inferior OS, CSS, and DFS in patients with UC. This biomarker can be an important factor incorporated into the prognostic models for UC.

Abstract
BACKGROUND To date, there remain uncertainties over the prognostic role of serum lactate dehydrogenase (LDH) in patients with metastatic renal cell carcinoma (mRCC). A systematic review and meta-analysis was performed. MATERIALS AND METHODS Eligible studies were retrieved from PubMed, Embase, Cochrane Library and Web of Science databases up to October 2019. The endpoints included overall survival (OS) and progression-free survival (PFS). Multivariable adjusted hazard ratios (HRs) and 95% confidence intervals (CIs) were used to evaluate each endpoint. RESULTS Thirty observational studies of low to moderate risk of bias embracing 6754 patients with mRCC were included. The results showed that patients with a high pretreatment serum LDH had an inferior OS (HR: 2.15, 95% CI: 1.85-2.51; P < 0.001) and PFS (HR: 1.76, 95% CI: 1.49-2.10; P < 0.001). Subgroup analyses according to year of publication, study design, patient population, geographic region, sample size and NOS score did not alter the direction of results. There was significant publication bias for OS, but not for PFS. Sensitivity analyses further confirmed the robustness of the results. CONCLUSION Our findings indicated that a high level of pretreatment serum LDH was associated with an inferior OS and DFS in patients with mRCC. Methodological limitations should be considered while interpreting these results.

Abstract
To sustain their high proliferation rates, most cancer cells rely on glycolytic metabolism, with production of lactic acid. For many years, lactate was seen as a metabolic waste of glycolytic metabolism; however, recent evidence has revealed new roles of lactate in the tumor microenvironment, either as metabolic fuel or as a signaling molecule. Lactate plays a key role in the different models of metabolic crosstalk proposed in malignant tumors: among cancer cells displaying complementary metabolic phenotypes and between cancer cells and other tumor microenvironment associated cells, including endothelial cells, fibroblasts, and diverse immune cells. This cell metabolic symbiosis/slavery supports several cancer aggressiveness features, including increased angiogenesis, immunological escape, invasion, metastasis, and resistance to therapy. Lactate transport is mediated by the monocarboxylate transporter (MCT) family, while another large family of G protein-coupled receptors (GPCRs), not yet fully characterized in the cancer context, is involved in lactate/acidosis signaling. In this mini-review, we will focus on the role of lactate in the tumor microenvironment, from metabolic affairs to signaling, including the function of lactate in the cancer-cancer and cancer-stromal shuttles, as well as a signaling oncometabolite. We will also review the prognostic value of lactate metabolism and therapeutic approaches designed to target lactate production and transport.

Abstract
Immunotherapy has revolutionized the treatment of melanoma. Targeting of the immune checkpoints cytotoxic T-lymphocyte-associated protein 4 and programmed cell death protein 1 has led to improved survival in a subset of patients. Unfortunately, the use of immune checkpoint inhibitors is associated with significant side effects and many patients do not respond to treatment. Thus, there is an urgent need both for prognostic biomarkers to estimate risk and for predictive biomarkers to determine which patients are likely to respond to therapy. In this review, prognostic and predictive biomarkers that are an active area of research are outlined. Of note, certain transcriptomic signatures are already used in the clinic, albeit not routinely, to prognosticate patients. In the predictive setting, programmed cell death protein ligand 1 expression has been shown to correlate with benefit but is not precise enough to be used as an exclusionary biomarker. Future investigation will need to focus on biomarkers that are easily reproducible, cost effective, and accurate. The use of readily available clinical material, such as serum or hematoxylin and eosin-stained images, may offer one such path forward.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Although guidelines exist for advanced and variant bladder cancer management, evidence is limited/conflicting in some areas and the optimal approach remains controversial. OBJECTIVE To bring together a large multidisciplinary group of experts to develop consensus statements on controversial topics in bladder cancer management. DESIGN A steering committee compiled proposed statements regarding advanced and variant bladder cancer management which were assessed by 113 experts in a Delphi survey. Statements not reaching consensus were reviewed; those prioritised were revised by a panel of 45 experts prior to voting during a consensus conference. SETTING Online Delphi survey and consensus conference. PARTICIPANTS The European Association of Urology (EAU), the European Society for Medical Oncology (ESMO), experts in bladder cancer management. OUTCOME MEASUREMENTS AND STATISTICAL ANALYSIS Statements were ranked by experts according to their level of agreement: 1-3 (disagree), 4-6 (equivocal), and 7-9 (agree). A priori (level 1) consensus was defined as ≥70% agreement and ≤15% disagreement, or vice versa. In the Delphi survey, a second analysis was restricted to stakeholder group(s) considered to have adequate expertise relating to each statement (to achieve level 2 consensus). RESULTS AND LIMITATIONS Overall, 116 statements were included in the Delphi survey. Of these statements, 33 (28%) achieved level 1 consensus and 49 (42%) achieved level 1 or 2 consensus. At the consensus conference, 22 of 27 (81%) statements achieved consensus. These consensus statements provide further guidance across a broad range of topics, including the management of variant histologies, the role/limitations of prognostic biomarkers in clinical decision making, bladder preservation strategies, modern radiotherapy techniques, the management of oligometastatic disease, and the evolving role of checkpoint inhibitor therapy in metastatic disease. CONCLUSIONS These consensus statements provide further guidance on controversial topics in advanced and variant bladder cancer management until a time when further evidence is available to guide our approach. PATIENT SUMMARY This report summarises findings from an international, multistakeholder project organised by the EAU and ESMO. In this project, a steering committee identified areas of bladder cancer management where there is currently no good-quality evidence to guide treatment decisions. From this, they developed a series of proposed statements, 71 of which achieved consensus by a large group of experts in the field of bladder cancer. It is anticipated that these statements will provide further guidance to health care professionals and could help improve patient outcomes until a time when good-quality evidence is available.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Although guidelines exist for advanced and variant bladder cancer management, evidence is limited/conflicting in some areas and the optimal approach remains controversial. OBJECTIVE To bring together a large multidisciplinary group of experts to develop consensus statements on controversial topics in bladder cancer management. DESIGN A steering committee compiled proposed statements regarding advanced and variant bladder cancer management which were assessed by 113 experts in a Delphi survey. Statements not reaching consensus were reviewed; those prioritised were revised by a panel of 45 experts before voting during a consensus conference. SETTING Online Delphi survey and consensus conference. PARTICIPANTS The European Association of Urology (EAU), the European Society for Medical Oncology (ESMO), experts in bladder cancer management. OUTCOME MEASUREMENTS AND STATISTICAL ANALYSIS Statements were ranked by experts according to their level of agreement: 1-3 (disagree), 4-6 (equivocal), 7-9 (agree). A priori (level 1) consensus was defined as ≥70% agreement and ≤15% disagreement, or vice versa. In the Delphi survey, a second analysis was restricted to stakeholder group(s) considered to have adequate expertise relating to each statement (to achieve level 2 consensus). RESULTS AND LIMITATIONS Overall, 116 statements were included in the Delphi survey. Of these, 33 (28%) statements achieved level 1 consensus and 49 (42%) statements achieved level 1 or 2 consensus. At the consensus conference, 22 of 27 (81%) statements achieved consensus. These consensus statements provide further guidance across a broad range of topics, including the management of variant histologies, the role/limitations of prognostic biomarkers in clinical decision making, bladder preservation strategies, modern radiotherapy techniques, the management of oligometastatic disease and the evolving role of checkpoint inhibitor therapy in metastatic disease. CONCLUSIONS These consensus statements provide further guidance on controversial topics in advanced and variant bladder cancer management until a time where further evidence is available to guide our approach.

[PMID: 31371982 PMCID: PMC6626897 DOI: 10.2147/ott.s208637] [Citation(s) in RCA: 1] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.2] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/13/2019] [Accepted: 06/13/2019] [Indexed: 01/10/2023] Open
Abstract
Background: Trimethylation of histones has been extensively studied, where histone methyltransferases catalyze the transfer of methyl groups from S-adenosyl methionine. Thus far, there have been no researches on the trimethylation of non-histone proteins. The precise mechanisms by which trimethylation affects cell progress and the related protein functions remain unclear. Purpose: The objective of this study was to identify the Lys-trimethylated proteins in kidney-derived cells and tissues, as well as to better understand the mechanisms underlying Lys-trimethylation-mediated cell metabolism. Methods: The levels of Lys-trimethylation in kidney-derived cells and tissues were assayed by Western blotting. Additionally, high-resolution mass spectrometry was used to analyze kidney-derived cells and tissues, and the eukaryotic expression vectors that led to the mutations of lysine were constructed and transfected into HEK293T cells. The LDHA activity of HEK293T cells was detected under conditions of Lys-trimethylation inhibition, and the proliferation of HEK293T cells was measured using EdU and Western blotting analyses. Results: The different proteins in kidney-derived cells and tissues showed different levels of Lys-trimethylation. In particular, lactate dehydrogenase A (LDHA) was Lys-trimethylated on lysine (K5). Inhibition of the Lys-trimethylation in LDHA increased the LDH activity of HEK293T cells and upregulated their proliferation. Conclusion: We suggested that LDHA affects the metabolism and proliferation of cells via a Lys-trimethylation-mediated mechanism; Lys-trimethylation might be a potential target for therapeutic research or used as a prognostic and treatment biomarker of several diseases.

Lactate Dehydrogenases as Metabolic Links between Tumor and Stroma in the Tumor Microenvironment. Cancers (Basel) 2019; 11:cancers11060750. [PMID: 31146503 PMCID: PMC6627402 DOI: 10.3390/cancers11060750] [Citation(s) in RCA: 151] [Impact Index Per Article: 30.2] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 04/23/2019] [Revised: 05/20/2019] [Accepted: 05/23/2019] [Indexed: 02/07/2023] Open
Abstract
Cancer is a metabolic disease in which abnormally proliferating cancer cells rewire metabolic pathways in the tumor microenvironment (TME). Molecular reprogramming in the TME helps cancer cells to fulfill elevated metabolic demands for bioenergetics and cellular biosynthesis. One of the ways through which cancer cell achieve this is by regulating the expression of metabolic enzymes. Lactate dehydrogenase (LDH) is the primary metabolic enzyme that converts pyruvate to lactate and vice versa. LDH also plays a significant role in regulating nutrient exchange between tumor and stroma. Thus, targeting human lactate dehydrogenase for treating advanced carcinomas may be of benefit. LDHA and LDHB, two isoenzymes of LDH, participate in tumor stroma metabolic interaction and exchange of metabolic fuel and thus could serve as potential anticancer drug targets. This article reviews recent research discussing the roles of lactate dehydrogenase in cancer metabolism. As molecular regulation of LDHA and LDHB in different cancer remains obscure, we also review signaling pathways regulating LDHA and LDHB expression. We highlight on the role of small molecule inhibitors in targeting LDH activity and we emphasize the development of safer and more effective LDH inhibitors. We trust that this review will also generate interest in designing combination therapies based on LDH inhibition, with LDHA being targeted in tumors and LDHB in stromal cells for better treatment outcome.

Deng T, Zhang J, Meng Y, Zhou Y, Li W. Higher pretreatment lactate dehydrogenase concentration predicts worse overall survival in patients with lung cancer. Medicine (Baltimore) 2018; 97:e12524.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The aim of this study was to systematically evaluate the prognostic role of pretreatment lactate dehydrogenase (LDH) concentration for survival in patients with lung cancer through performing a meta-analysis. METHODS PubMed, EMBASE, Cochrane Library, Web of Science, and China National Knowledge Infrastructure were searched for potentially relevant literature. The study and patients' characteristics were extracted. Hazard ratios (HRs) with 95% confidence intervals (95% CIs) were pooled to estimate the prognostic role of LDH in patients with lung cancer. RESULTS Fourteen studies with 4084 patients were included. Higher pretreatment LDH concentration was significantly associated with an increased risk of overall mortality in patients with lung cancer (HR = 1.49, 95% CI, 1.38-1.59). Subgroup analysis of studies also resulted in a significantly increased risk of mortality in patients with small cell lung cancer (SCLC, HR = 1.54, 95% CI, 1.43-1.67) or nonsmall cell lung cancer (NSCLC, HR = 1.25, 95% CI, 1.06-1.46), with high pretreatment LDH concentration. No significant between-study heterogeneity was observed (I = 12.0%, P = .321). No significant publication bias was found (P = .352) in the meta-analysis. CONCLUSION The results suggested that higher pretreatment LDH concentration was associated with worse overall survival in patients with lung cancer. The findings may assist future research on anticancer therapy by targeting LDH and help predict prognosis in lung cancer patients. However, high-quality studies are required to further research and support these associations. Moreover, confounding factors such as patient ethnicity and tumor type should be considered in future studies.
