Abstract
BACKGROUND Endothelial cell (EC) metabolism plays a crucial role in the process of angiogenesis. Intrinsic metabolic events such as glycolysis, fatty acid oxidation, and glutamine metabolism, support secure vascular migration and proliferation, energy and biomass production, as well as redox homeostasis maintenance during vessel formation. Nevertheless, perturbation of EC metabolism instigates vascular dysregulation-associated diseases, especially cancer. AIM OF REVIEW In this review, we aim to discuss the metabolic regulation of angiogenesis by EC metabolites and metabolic enzymes, as well as prospect the possible therapeutic opportunities and strategies targeting EC metabolism. KEY SCIENTIFIC CONCEPTS OF REVIEW In this work, we discuss various aspects of EC metabolism considering normal and diseased vasculature. Of relevance, we highlight that the implications of EC metabolism-targeted intervention (chiefly by metabolic enzymes or metabolites) could be harnessed in orchestrating a spectrum of pathological angiogenesis-associated diseases.

Najm R, Hachim MY, Kandasamy RK. Divulging a Pleiotropic Role of Succinate Receptor SUCNR1 in Renal Cell Carcinoma Microenvironment. Cancers (Basel) 2022; 14:cancers14246064. [PMID: 36551549 PMCID: PMC9776839 DOI: 10.3390/cancers14246064] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/08/2022] [Revised: 11/29/2022] [Accepted: 12/05/2022] [Indexed: 12/13/2022] Open
Abstract
The succinate receptor, SUCNR1, has been attributed to tumor progression, metastasis, and immune response modulation upon its activation via the oncometabolite succinate. Nonetheless, little is known about the prognostic relevance of SUCNR1 and its association with tumor immune infiltrates and microbiota in renal cell carcinoma (RCC). Herein, publicly available platforms including Human Protein Atlas, cBioPortal, TIMER2.0, and TISIDB were utilized to depict a divergent implication of SUCNR1 in the immune microenvironment of clear cell RCC (KIRC) and papillary RCC (KIRP); the two major subtypes of RCC. Our results showed that the SUCNR1 expression level was augmented in RCC compared to other solid cancers, yet with opposite survival rate predictions in RCC subtypes. Consequently, a higher expression level of SUCNR1 was associated with a good disease-specific survival rate (p = 5.797 × 10-5) in KIRC patients albeit a poor prognostic prediction in KIRP patients (p = 1.9282 × 10-3). Intriguingly, SUCNR1 was mainly correlated to immunomodulators and diverse immune infiltrates in KIRP. Additionally, the SUCNR1 was mostly associated with a repertoire of microbes including beneficial bacteria that likely influenced a better disease-specific survival rate in KIRC. Our findings illustrate a significant novel subtype-specific role of SUCNR1 in RCC which potentially modulates tumor immune infiltration and microbiome signature, hence altering the prognosis of cancer patients.

Abstract
CONTEXT Pheochromocytomas and paragangliomas (PPGL) are rare neuroendocrine tumors that are frequently associated with succinate dehydrogenase (SDH) germline mutations. When mutated, SDH losses its function, thus leading to succinate accumulation. OBJECTIVE In this study, we evaluated serum succinate levels as a new metabolic biomarker in SDHx-related carriers. METHODS Retrospective monocentric study of 88 PPGL patients (43 sporadic, 35 SDHB, 10 SDHA/C/D), 17 tumor-free familial asymptomatic carriers (13 SDHB, 4 SDHC/D), and 60 healthy controls. Clinical, biological, and imaging data were reviewed. Serum succinate levels (n = 280) were quantified by an ultra-performance liquid chromatography coupled to a tandem mass spectrometry method and correlated to SDHx mutational status, disease extension, and other biological biomarkers. RESULTS Serum succinate levels > 7 μM allowed identification of tumor-free asymptomatic SDHB-mutated cases compared to a healthy control group (100% specificity; 85% sensitivity). At PPGL diagnosis, SDHB-mutated patients had a significantly increased median succinate level (14 μM) compared to sporadic patients (8 μM) (P < 0.01). Metastatic disease extension was correlated to serum succinate levels (r = 0.81). In the SDHB group, patients displaying highest tumor burdens showed significant increased succinate levels compared to the sporadic group (P < 0.0001). CONCLUSIONS In this pilot study, we showed that serum succinate level is an oncometabolic biomarker that should be useful to identify SDHB-related carriers. Succinate levels are also a marker of metabolic tumor burden in patients with a metastatic PPGL and a potential marker of treatment response and follow-up.

Abstract
First introduced in 1976, 18F-fluorodeoxyglucose (18F-FDG) positron emission tomography (PET) has become an indispensable tool for diagnosis and prognostic evaluation of tumors, heart disease, as well as other conditions, including inflammation and infection. Because 18F-FDG can accurately reflect the glucose metabolism level of organs and tissues, it is known as a "century molecule" and is currently the main agent for PET imaging. The degree of 18F-FDG uptake by cells is related to both the rate of glucose metabolism and glucose transporter expression. These, in turn, are strongly influenced by hypoxia, in which cells meet their energy needs through glycolysis, and 18F-FDG uptake increased due to hypoxia. 18F-FDG uptake is a complex process, and hypoxia may be one of the fundamental driving forces. The correct interpretation of 18F-FDG uptake in PET imaging can help clinics make treatment decisions more accurately and effectively. In this article, we review the application of 18F-FDG PET in tumors, myocardium, and inflammation. We discuss the relationship between 18F-FDG uptake and hypoxia, the possible mechanism of 18F-FDG uptake caused by hypoxia, and the associated clinical implications.

Abstract
Metabolic plasticity is the ability of the cell to adjust its metabolism to changes in environmental conditions. Increased metabolic plasticity is a defining characteristic of cancer cells, which gives them the advantage of survival and a higher proliferative capacity. Here we review some functional features of metabolic plasticity of colorectal cancer cells (CRC). Metabolic plasticity is characterized by changes in adenine nucleotide transport across the outer mitochondrial membrane. Voltage-dependent anion channel (VDAC) is the main protein involved in the transport of adenine nucleotides, and its regulation is impaired in CRC cells. Apparent affinity for ADP is a functional parameter that characterizes VDAC permeability and provides an integrated assessment of cell metabolic state. VDAC permeability can be adjusted via its interactions with other proteins, such as hexokinase and tubulin. Also, the redox conditions inside a cancer cell may alter VDAC function, resulting in enhanced metabolic plasticity. In addition, a cancer cell shows reprogrammed energy transfer circuits such as adenylate kinase (AK) and creatine kinase (CK) pathway. Knowledge of the mechanism of metabolic plasticity will improve our understanding of colorectal carcinogenesis.

Abstract
Succinate influences angiogenesis and neovascularization via a hormonelike effect on G-protein-coupled receptor 91 (GPR91). This effect has been demonstrated in the pathophysiology of diabetic retinopathy and rheumatoid arthritis. To evaluate whether succinate can play a role in acute peripheral ischemia, a preclinical study was conducted with ischemic mice treated with succinate or PBS and evaluated by imaging. Acute ischemia was followed by an increased in GPR91 expression in the ischemic muscle. As assessed with LASER-Doppler, succinate treatment resulted in an earlier and more intense reperfusion of the ischemic hindlimb compared to the control group (* p = 0.0189). A microPET study using a radiolabeled integrin ligand ([68Ga]Ga-RGD2) showed an earlier angiogenic activation in the succinate arm compared to control mice (* p = 0.020) with a prolonged effect. Additionally, clinical recovery following ischemia was better in the succinate group. In conclusion, succinate injection promotes earlier angiogenesis after ischemia, resulting in a more effective revascularization and subsequently a better functional recovery.

Abstract
PURPOSE OF REVIEW Pheochromocytoma and paraganglioma (PPGLs) are neuroendocrine tumors with diverse clinical presentations. PPGLs can be sporadic but often are associated with various syndromes, which can have variable clinical presentations. A thorough workup is therefore critical for staging, treatment, and follow-up. Imaging is an essential part of the workup and diagnosis of PPGLs. RECENT FINDINGS Improvements in cross-sectional imaging with radionuclides have increased specificity and sensitivity for identifying and treating PPGLs. Furthermore, a variety of targets on PPGLs has allowed for optimal imaging with radionuclides that can be used for staging and treatment. Currently, radionuclides are being evaluated for staging and treatment of PPGLs. Developing novel radionuclides that can identify disease sites and target them simultaneously provides a potential for improving survival and outcomes in patients with PPGLs. Given the clinical diversity among PPGLs, expanding the therapeutic arsenal against locally advanced or metastatic PPGLs can allow clinicians to evaluate and treat PPGLs thoroughly.

Abstract
Endothelial cell (EC) metabolism is important for health and disease. Metabolic pathways, such as glycolysis, fatty acid oxidation, and amino acid metabolism, determine vasculature formation. These metabolic pathways have different roles in securing the production of energy and biomass and the maintenance of redox homeostasis in vascular migratory tip cells, proliferating stalk cells, and quiescent phalanx cells, respectively. Emerging evidence demonstrates that perturbation of EC metabolism results in EC dysfunction and vascular pathologies. Here, we summarize recent insights into EC metabolic pathways and their deregulation in vascular diseases. We further discuss the therapeutic implications of targeting EC metabolism in various pathologies.

Abstract
To assess the metabolomic fingerprint of small intestine neuroendocrine tumors (SI-NETs) and related hepatic metastases, and to investigate the influence of the hepatic environment on SI-NETs metabolome. Ninety-four tissue samples, including 46 SI-NETs, 18 hepatic NET metastases and 30 normal SI and liver samples, were analyzed using 1H-magic angle spinning (HRMAS) NMR nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) spectroscopy. Twenty-seven metabolites were identified and quantified. Differences between primary NETs vs. normal SI and primary NETs vs. hepatic metastases, were assessed. Network analysis was performed according to several clinical and pathological features. Succinate, glutathion, taurine, myoinositol and glycerophosphocholine characterized NETs. Normal SI specimens showed higher levels of alanine, creatine, ethanolamine and aspartate. PLS-DA revealed a continuum-like distribution among normal SI, G1-SI-NETs and G2-SI-NETs. The G2-SI-NET distribution was closer and clearly separated from normal SI tissue. Lower concentration of glucose, serine and glycine, and increased levels of choline-containing compounds, taurine, lactate and alanine, were found in SI-NETs with more aggressive tumors. Higher abundance of acetate, succinate, choline, phosphocholine, taurine, lactate and aspartate discriminated liver metastases from normal hepatic parenchyma. Higher levels of alanine, ethanolamine, glycerophosphocholine and glucose was found in hepatic metastases than in primary SI-NETs. The present work gives for the first time a snapshot of the metabolomic characteristics of SI-NETs, suggesting the existence of complex metabolic reality, maybe characteristic of different tumor evolution.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES Nuclear imaging findings by virtue of phenotyping disease heavily depend on genetic background, metabolites, cell membrane specific targets and signalling pathways. PPGL related to succinate dehydrogenase subunits mutations (SDHx mutations) are less differentiated than other subgroups and therefore may lack to concentrate 18 F-FDOPA, a precursor of catecholamines biosynthesis. However, this 18 F-FDOPA negative phenotype has been reported mostly in SDHx-PPGL of sympathetic origin, suggesting that both genotype status and location (from sympathetic vs parasympathetic paraganglia; adrenal vs extra-adrenal) could influence 18 F-FDOPA uptake. The aim of this study was to test if SDHx drives 18 F-FDOPA uptake in presence of normal epinephrine/norepinephrine concentrations. DESIGN Retrospective study PATIENTS: A cohort of 86 head and neck PPGL patients (including three metastatic) with normal metanephrines underwent 18 F-FDOPA PET/CT. The relationships between 18 F-FDOPA uptake and tumour genotype were evaluated. RESULTS In nonmetastatic HNPGL (50 non-SDHx/33 SDHx), no significant difference was observed between these two groups for SUVmax (P = .256), SUVmean (P = .188), MTV 42% (P = .596) and total lesion uptake (P = .144). Metastatic HNPGL also had high elevated uptake values. CONCLUSIONS Our results suggest that SDH deficiency or metastatic behaviour have no influence on 18 F-FDOPA uptake in HNPGL probably due to their very-well differentiation status, even at metastatic stage. The potential prognosticator value of 18 F-FDOPA uptake would need to be further explored in the setting of metastatic PPGL of sympathetic origin.

Abstract
PURPOSE Diverse radionuclide imaging techniques are available for the diagnosis, staging, and follow-up of phaeochromocytoma and paraganglioma (PPGL). Beyond their ability to detect and localise the disease, these imaging approaches variably characterise these tumours at the cellular and molecular levels and can guide therapy. Here we present updated guidelines jointly approved by the EANM and SNMMI for assisting nuclear medicine practitioners in not only the selection and performance of currently available single-photon emission computed tomography and positron emission tomography procedures, but also the interpretation and reporting of the results. METHODS Guidelines from related fields and relevant literature have been considered in consultation with leading experts involved in the management of PPGL. The provided information should be applied according to local laws and regulations as well as the availability of various radiopharmaceuticals. CONCLUSION Since the European Association of Nuclear Medicine 2012 guidelines, the excellent results obtained with gallium-68 (68Ga)-labelled somatostatin analogues (SSAs) in recent years have simplified the imaging approach for PPGL patients that can also be used for selecting patients for peptide receptor radionuclide therapy as a potential alternative or complement to the traditional theranostic approach with iodine-123 (123I)/iodine-131 (131I)-labelled meta-iodobenzylguanidine. Genomic characterisation of subgroups with differing risk of lesion development and subsequent metastatic spread is refining the use of molecular imaging in the personalised approach to hereditary PPGL patients for detection, staging, and follow-up surveillance.

Abstract
The mitochondrial enzyme succinate dehydrogenase (SDH) acts as a tumor suppressor. Biallelic inactivation of one of the genes encoding for SDH subunits (collectively named SDHx) leads to complete loss of the protein function and the development of diverse group of tumors. Pheochromocytomas-paragangliomas are the prime example of hereditary tumors caused by SDH deficiency. In this review, we discuss the roles of imaging examinations, and illustrate new insights into genotype-imaging phenotype relationships.

Abstract
Succinate dehydrogenase (SDH) mutations lead to the accumulation of succinate, which acts as an oncometabolite. Germline SDHx mutations predispose to paraganglioma (PGL) and pheochromocytoma (PCC), as well as to renal cell carcinoma and gastro‐intestinal stromal tumors. The SDHx genes were the first tumor suppressor genes discovered which encode for a mitochondrial enzyme, thereby supporting Otto Warburg's hypothesis in 1926 that a direct link existed between mitochondrial dysfunction and cancer. Accumulation of succinate is the hallmark of tumorigenesis in PGL and PCC. Succinate accumulation inhibits several α‐ketoglutarate dioxygenases, thereby inducing the pseudohypoxia pathway and causing epigenetic changes. Moreover, SDH loss as a consequence of SDHx mutations can lead to reprogramming of cell metabolism. Metabolomics can be used as a diagnostic tool, as succinate and other metabolites can be measured in tumor tissue, plasma and urine with different techniques. Furthermore, these pathophysiological characteristics provide insight into therapeutic targets for metastatic disease. This review provides an overview of the pathophysiology and clinical implications of oncometabolite succinate in SDHx mutations.

Abstract
One in four non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) patients are diagnosed at an early-stage. Following the results of the National Lung Screening Trial that demonstrated a survival benefit for low-dose computed tomography screening in high-risk patients, the incidence of early-stage NSCLC is expected to increase. Use of 18F-fluorodeoxyglucose positron emission tomography/computed tomography during initial diagnosis of these early-stage lesions has been increasing. Traditionally, positron emission tomography/computed tomography scans have been utilized for mediastinal nodal staging and to rule out distant metastases in suspected early-stage NSCLC. In clinically node-negative NSCLC, the use of sublobar resection and selective lymph node dissection has been increasing as a therapeutic option. The higher rate of locoregional recurrences after limited resection and the significant incidence of occult lymph node metastases underscores the need to further stratify clinically node-negative NSCLC in order to select patients for limited resection versus lobectomy with complete mediastinal lymph node dissection. In this report, we review the published data, and discuss the significance and potential role of 18F-fluorodeoxyglucose positron emission tomography/computed tomography evaluation for clinically node-negative NSCLC. Consequently, the literature review demonstrates that maximum standardized uptake value is a predictive factor for occult nodal metastasis with an accuracy of 55-77%. In addition, maximum standardized uptake value is a predictor for worse overall, as well as disease-free, survival.

Abstract
Static single-time-frame 18F-FDG PET/CT is useful for the localization and functional characterization of pheochromocytomas and paragangliomas (PPGLs). 18F-FDG uptake varies between PPGLs with different genotypes, and the highest SUVs are observed in cases of succinate dehydrogenase (SDH) mutations, possibly related to enhanced aerobic glycolysis in tumor cells. The exact determinants of 18F-FDG accumulation in PPGLs are unknown. We performed dynamic PET/CT scanning to assess whether in vivo 18F-FDG pharmacokinetics has added value over static PET to distinguish different genotypes. Methods: Dynamic 18F-FDG PET/CT was performed on 13 sporadic PPGLs and 13 PPGLs from 11 patients with mutations in SDH complex subunits B and D, von Hippel-Lindau (VHL), RET, and neurofibromin 1 (NF1). Pharmacokinetic analysis was performed using a 2-tissue-compartment tracer kinetic model. The derived transfer rate-constants for transmembranous glucose flux (K 1 [in], k 2 [out]) and intracellular phosphorylation (k 3), along with the vascular blood fraction (Vb), were analyzed using nonlinear regression analysis. Glucose metabolic rate (MRglc) was calculated using Patlak linear regression analysis. The SUVmax of the lesions was determined on additional static PET/CT images. Results: Both MRglc and SUVmax were significantly higher for hereditary cluster 1 (SDHx, VHL) tumors than for hereditary cluster 2 (RET, NF1) and sporadic tumors (P < 0.01 and P < 0.05, respectively). Median k 3 was significantly higher for cluster 1 than for sporadic tumors (P < 0.01). Median Vb was significantly higher for cluster 1 than for cluster 2 tumors (P < 0.01). No statistically significant differences in K 1 and k 2 were found between the groups. Cutoffs for k 3 to distinguish between cluster 1 and other tumors were established at 0.015 min-1 (100% sensitivity, 15.8% specificity) and 0.636 min-1 (100% specificity, 85.7% sensitivity). MRglc significantly correlated with SUVmax (P = 0.001) and k 3 (P = 0.002). Conclusion: In vivo metabolic tumor profiling in patients with PPGL can be achieved by assessing 18F-FDG pharmacokinetics using dynamic PET/CT scanning. Cluster 1 PPGLs can be reliably identified by a high 18F-FDG phosphorylation rate.

Abstract
Endothelial cells (ECs) make up the lining of our blood vessels and they ensure optimal nutrient and oxygen delivery to the parenchymal tissue. In response to oxygen and/or nutrient deprivation, ECs become activated and sprout into hypo-vascularized tissues forming new vascular networks in a process termed angiogenesis. New sprouts are led by migratory tip cells and extended through the proliferation of trailing stalk cells. Activated ECs rewire their metabolism to cope with the increased energetic and biosynthetic demands associated with migration and proliferation. Moreover, metabolic signaling pathways interact and integrate with angiogenic signaling events. These metabolic adaptations play essential roles in determining EC fate and function, and are perturbed during pathological angiogenesis, as occurs in cancer. The angiogenic switch, or the growth of new blood vessels into an expanding tumor, increases tumor growth and malignancy. Limiting tumor angiogenesis has therefore long been a goal for anticancer therapy but the traditional growth factor targeted anti-angiogenic treatments have met with limited success. In recent years however, it has become increasingly recognized that focusing on altered tumor EC metabolism provides an attractive alternative anti-angiogenic strategy. In this review, we will describe the EC metabolic signature and how changes in EC metabolism affect EC fate during physiological sprouting, as well as in the cancer setting. Then, we will discuss the potential of targeting EC metabolism as a promising approach to develop new anti-cancer therapies.

Mathematical modeling of disease dynamics in SDHB- and SDHD-related paraganglioma: Further step in understanding hereditary tumor differences and future therapeutic strategies. PLoS One 2018; 13:e0201303.

Abstract
Succinate dehydrogenase subunit B and D (SDHB and SDHD) mutations represent the most frequent cause of hereditary pheochromocytoma and paraganglioma (PPGL). Although truncation of the succinate dehydrogenase complex is thought to be the disease causing mechanism in both disorders, SDHB and SDHD patients exihibit different phenotypes. These phenotypic differences are currently unexplained by molecular genetics. The aim of this study is to compare disease dynamics in these two conditions via a Markov chain model based on 4 clinically-defined steady states. Our model corroborates at the population level phenotypic observations in SDHB and SDHD carriers and suggests potential explanations associated with the probabilities of disease maintenance and regression. In SDHB-related syndrome, PPGL maintenance seems to be reduced compared to SDHD (p = 0.04 vs 0.95) due to higher probability of tumor cell regression in SDHB vs SDHD (p = 0.87 vs 0.00). However, when SDHB-tumors give rise to metastases, metastatic cells are able to thrive with decreased probability of regression compared with SDHD counterparts (p = 0.17 vs 0.89). By constrast, almost all SDHD patients develop PGL (mainly head and neck) that persist throughout their lifetime. However, compared to SDHB, maintenance of metastatic lesions seems to be less effective for SDHD (p = 0.83 vs 0.11). These findings align with data suggesting that SDHD-related PPGL require less genetic events for tumor initiation and maintenance compared to those related to SDHB, but fail to initiate biology that promotes metastatic spread and metastatic cell survival in host tissues. By contrast, the higher number of genetic abnormalities required for tumor initiation and maintenance in SDHB PPGL result in a lower penetrance of PGL, but when cells give rise to metastases they are assumed to be better adapted to sustain survival. These proposed differences in disease progression dynamics between SDHB and SDHD diseases provide new cues for future exploration of SDHx PPGL behavior, offering considerations for future specific therapeutic and prevention strategies.

Abstract
PURPOSE Mutations in the mitochondrial enzyme succinate dehydrogenase (SDH) subunit genes are associated with a wide spectrum of tumours including phaeochromocytoma and paraganglioma (PPGL) 1, 2, gastrointestinal stromal tumours (GIST) 3, renal cell carcinoma (RCC) 4 and pituitary adenomas5. SDH-related tumorigenesis is believed to be secondary to accumulation of the oncometabolite succinate. Our aim was to investigate the potential clinical applications of MRI spectroscopy (1H-MRS) in a range of suspected SDH-related tumours. PATIENTS AND METHODS Fifteen patients were recruited to this study. Respiratory-gated single-voxel 1H-MRS was performed at 3T to quantify the content of succinate at 2.4 ppm and choline at 3.22 ppm. RESULTS A succinate peak was seen in six patients, all of whom had a germline SDHx mutation or loss of SDHB by immunohistochemistry. A succinate peak was also detected in two patients with a metastatic wild-type GIST (wtGIST) and no detectable germline SDHx mutation but a somatic epimutation in SDHC. Three patients without a tumour succinate peak retained SDHB expression, consistent with SDH functionality. In six cases with a borderline or absent peak, technical difficulties such as motion artefact rendered 1H-MRS difficult to interpret. Sequential imaging in a patient with a metastatic abdominal paraganglioma demonstrated loss of the succinate peak after four cycles of [177Lu]-DOTATATE, with a corresponding biochemical response in normetanephrine. CONCLUSIONS This study has demonstrated the translation into clinical practice of in vivo metabolomic analysis using 1H-MRS in patients with SDH-deficient tumours. Potential applications include non-invasive diagnosis and disease stratification, as well as monitoring of tumour response to targeted treatments.

Molecular imaging and theranostic approaches in pheochromocytoma and paraganglioma. Cell Tissue Res 2018; 372:393-401.

Abstract
Pheochromocytomas and their extra-adrenal counterpart paragangliomas (PGLs; together called PPGLs), belong to the family of neural crest-derived tumors. Given the overexpression of a wide variety of specific targets in PPGLs, it seems that these tumors are optimally suited to be imaged by specific radiopharmaceuticals. Thus, theranostics approaches with somatostatin agonists and antagonists are rapidly evolving in the setting of these tumors and may be considered as the next step in the therapeutic arsenal of metastatic PPGLs.

Abstract
Pheochromocytomas and paragangliomas (PCCs/PGLs) are rare commonly benign neuroendocrine tumors that share pathology features and clinical behavior in many cases. While PCCs are chromaffin-derived tumors that arise within the adrenal medulla, PGLs are neural-crest-derived tumors that originate at the extraadrenal paraganglia. Pheochromocytoma-paraganglioma (PPGL) syndromes are rapidly evolving entities in endocrinology and oncology. Discoveries over the last decade have significantly improved our understanding of the disease. These include the finding of new hereditary forms of PPGL and their associated susceptibility genes. Additionally, the availability of new functional imaging tools and advances in targeted radionuclide therapy have improved diagnostic accuracy and provided us with new therapeutic options. In this review article, we present the most recent advances in this field and provide an update of the biochemical classification that further reflects our understanding of the disease.

Abstract
Pheochromocytomas and paragangliomas (PPGLs) belong to the family of neural crest cell-derived neoplasms. In up to 70% of cases they are associated with germline and somatic mutations in 15 well-characterized PPGL driver or fusion genes. PPGLs can be grouped into three main clusters, where cluster 1 includes PPGLs characterized by a pseudohypoxic signature. Although cluster 1 tumors share several common features, they exhibit unique behaviors. We present here unique insights into the imaging phenotypes of cluster 1 PPGLs based on glucose uptake, catecholamine metabolism, and somatostatin receptor expression. Recent data suggest that succinate is a major player in the imaging phenotype of succinate dehydrogenase-deficient PPGLs. This review emphasizes the emerging stromal cell-succinate interaction and highlights new perspectives in PPGL theranostics.
