Abstract
Metabolic reprogramming mediated by hypoxia-inducible factors and its downstream targets plays a crucial role in many human malignancies. Excessive proliferation of tumor cells under hypoxic conditions leads to metabolic reprogramming and altered gene expression enabling tumors to adapt to their hypoxic environment. Here we analyzed the metabolic signatures of primary cutaneous melanomas with positive and negative sentinel node status in order to evaluate potential differences in their metabolic signature. We found a positive correlation of the expression of glucose transporter 1 (GLUT-1) with tumor thickness and ulceration in all melanomas with subgroup analyses as well as in the subgroup with a negative sentinel node. Furthermore, the expression of vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) was positively correlated with the presence of ulceration in melanomas with positive sentinel node.Entities:
