    Abstract Purpose of review: Pheochromocytomas and paragangliomas (PPGL) display a strong genetic determinism with 40% of inherited forms. The purpose of this review is to provide an update on current knowledge on adult forms of hereditary PPGL and their management.
    Recent findings: PPGL are genetically-driven in 70% of cases, with germline and/or somatic mutations identified in more than 20 genes. Although eight new susceptibility genes have recently emerged, mutations on SDHx genes remain the most frequent. In addition to SDHB, mutations in SLC25A11, FH and MDH2 may predispose to a metastatic disease and somatic alterations including TERT and ATRX mutations, and the differential expression on noncoding RNAs are also associated with the occurrence of metastases.The biochemical diagnosis remains the mainstay of functional PPGL and does not differ between hereditary PPGL while the choice of the best nuclear imaging approach is dictated by the tumor type and can be influenced by the presence of a germline mutation (18F-DOPA PET/CT for cluster 2 mutation and Ga-DOTATATE PET/CT for cluster 1 mutation).
    Summary: A systematic genetic testing and counselling is recommended for all PPGL patients and should lead to conservative surgery and an adapted follow up, in case of hereditary form.

    Abstract Research focused on succinate dehydrogenase (SDH) and its substrate, succinate, culminated in the 1950s accompanying the rapid development of research dedicated to bioenergetics and intermediary metabolism. This allowed researchers to uncover the implication of SDH in both the mitochondrial respiratory chain and the Krebs cycle. Nowadays, this theme is experiencing a real revival following the discovery of the role of SDH and succinate in a subset of tumors and cancers in humans. The aim of this review is to enlighten the many questions yet unanswered, ranging from fundamental to clinically oriented aspects, up to the danger of the current use of SDH as a target for a subclass of pesticides.

    Abstract Metastatic pheochromocytoma/paraganglioma (PPGL) represents a major clinical challenge due to limitations in accurate diagnostic tools and effective treatments. Currently, patients classified at high-risk by means of clinical, biochemical and genetic criteria, require a lifelong monitoring, while it remains difficult to determine the metastatic potential of PPGL only on the basis of histopathological features. Thus, tumor molecular markers that improve the risk stratification of these patients are needed. In the past few years, we have witnessed an unprecedented molecular characterization of PPGL, which led to the emergence of promising candidate biomarkers predictive of metastatic behavior. Here, we briefly discuss these breakthroughs and provide some insights for the prospective implementation of molecular markers of metastatic PPGL in the clinical setting in years to come.

    Abstract Paragangliomas and pheochromocytomas are rare neuroendocrine tumors characterized by a large spectrum of hereditary predisposition. Based on gene expression profiling classification, they can be classically assigned to either a hypoxic/angiogenic cluster (cluster 1 including tumors with mutations in SDHx, VHL and FH genes) or a kinase-signaling cluster (cluster 2 consisting in tumors related to RET, NF1, TMEM127 and MAX genes mutations, as well as most of the sporadic tumors). The past 15 years have seen the emergence of an increasing number of genetically engineered and grafted models to investigate tumorigenesis and develop new therapeutic strategies. Among them, only cluster 2-related predisposed models have been successful but grafted models are however available to study cluster 1-related tumors. In this review, we present an overview of existing rodent models targeting predisposition genes involved or not in human pheochromocytoma/paraganglioma susceptibility and their contribution to the improvement of pheochromocytoma experimental research.

    Abstract Mutations in succinate dehydrogenase (SDH) lead to the development of tumors in a restricted subset of cell types, including chromaffin cells and paraganglia. The molecular basis for this specificity is currently unknown. We show that loss of SDH activity in a chromaffin cell model does not perturb complex I function, retaining the ability to oxidize NADH within the electron transport chain. This activity supports continued oxidation of substrates within the tricarboxylic acid (TCA) cycle. However, due to the block in the TCA cycle at SDH, the high glutamine oxidation activity is only maintained through an efflux of succinate. We also show that although the mitochondria of SDH-deficient cells are less active per se, their higher mass per cell results in an overall respiratory rate that is comparable with wild-type cells. Finally, we observed that when their mitochondria are uncoupled, SDH-deficient cells are unable to preserve their viability, suggesting that the mitochondrial metabolic network is unable to compensate when exposed to additional stress. We therefore show that in contrast to models of SDH deficiency based on epithelial cells, a chromaffin cell model retains aspects of metabolic "health," which could form the basis of cell specificity of this rare tumor type.

    Abstract There are no officially approved therapies for metastatic pheochromocytomas apart from ultratrace 131I-metaiodbenzylguanidine therapy, which is approved only in the United States. We have, therefore, investigated the antitumor potential of molecular-targeted approaches in murine pheochromocytoma cell lines [monocyte chemoattractant protein (MPC)/monocyte chemoattractant protein/3-(4,5-Dimethylthiazol-2-yl)-2,5-diphenyltetrazolium bromide (MTT)], immortalized mouse chromaffin Sdhb-/- cells, three-dimensional pheochromocytoma tumor models (MPC/MTT spheroids), and human pheochromocytoma primary cultures. We identified the specific phosphatidylinositol-3-kinase α inhibitor BYL719 and the mammalian target of rapamycin inhibitor everolimus as the most effective combination in all models. Single treatment with clinically relevant doses of BYL719 and everolimus significantly decreased MPC/MTT and Sdhb-/- cell viability. A targeted combination of both inhibitors synergistically reduced MPC and Sdhb-/- cell viability and showed an additive effect on MTT cells. In MPC/MTT spheroids, treatment with clinically relevant doses of BYL719 alone or in combination with everolimus was highly effective, leading to a significant shrinkage or even a complete collapse of the spheroids. We confirmed the synergism of clinically relevant doses of BYL719 plus everolimus in human pheochromocytoma primary cultures of individual patient tumors with BYL719 attenuating everolimus-induced AKT activation. We have thus established a method to assess molecular-targeted therapies in human pheochromocytoma cultures and identified a highly effective combination therapy. Our data pave the way to customized combination therapy to target individual patient tumors.
