NNT in NSCLC: No need to worry?

In this study, Ward et al. (https://doi.org/10.1084/jem.20191689) provide exciting evidence that nucleotide nicotinamide transhydrogenase (NNT), a mitochondrial matrix–located enzyme harnessing the proton gradient to generate NADPH using NADH, markedly contributes to non-small cell lung carcinoma (N...

Sumario:In this study, Ward et al. (https://doi.org/10.1084/jem.20191689) provide exciting evidence that nucleotide nicotinamide transhydrogenase (NNT), a mitochondrial matrix–located enzyme harnessing the proton gradient to generate NADPH using NADH, markedly contributes to non-small cell lung carcinoma (NSCLC), which is abrogated in the murine C57BL/6J background, a strain known to be deficient in NNT.
