Abstract | Pyruvate kinase M2 (PKM2), a subtype of pyruvate kinase (PK), has been shown to play an important role in the development of cancer. It regulates the last step of glycolytic pathway. PKM2 has both pyruvate kinase and protein kinase activity, and the conversion of these two functions of PKM2 depends on the mutual change of dimer and tetramer. The dimerization of PKM2 can promote the proliferation and growth of tumor cells, so inhibiting the dimerization of PKM2 is essential to curing cancer. The aggregation of PKM2 is regulated by both endogenous and exogenous cofactors as well as post-translational modification (PTM). Although there are many studies on the different aggregation of PKM2 in the process of tumor development, there are few summaries in recent years. In this review, we first introduce the role of PKM2 in various biological processes of tumor growth. Then, we summarize the aggregation regulation mechanism of PKM2 by various endogenous cofactors such as Fructose-1, 6-diphosphate (FBP), various amino acids, and post-translational modification (PTMs). Finally, the related inhibitors and agonists of PKM2 are summarized to provide reference for regulating PKM2 aggregation in the treatment of cancer in the future. |
