This lethality is partly attributable to its rapid growth, which creates intratumoral regions scarce of oxygen and nutrients. GBM adapts to oxygen scarcity by activating the hypoxic response via hypoxia-inducible factor (HIF), thereby ensuring their survival and progression. HIF, in turn, is tightly regulated by prolyl hydroxylase domain-containing proteins. This work aims to characterize metabolic factors that influence the function of prolyl hydroxylase domain-containing proteins in GBM, including the metabolites glutamine, glutamate and alpha-ketoglutarate, and the citric acid cycle enzyme isocitrate dehydrogenase.enIn Copyrightglioblastomahypoxiatumor microenvironmenttumor metabolismddc:610
