A cell-permeable diarylsulfonamide (DASA) compound that acts as a potent and selective activator of tumor-specific M2 isozyme of pyruvate kinase (PKM2; AC50 = 65 nM). Pretreatment of A549 (adenocarcinomic human alveolar basal epithelial cells) with DASA-10 (~10 µM) prevents hydrogen peroxide, diamide, and hypoxia-induced inactivation of PKM2. DASA treatment is shown to cause a diminution in cellular glutathione levels, and higher oxidative stress-induced cell death.

Pharmacological activation of the glycolytic enzyme PKM2 or expression of the constitutively active PKM1 isoform in cancer cells results in decreased lactate production, a phenomenon known as the PKM2 paradox in the Warburg effect. Here we show that oxaloacetate (OAA)
Histone deacetylases (HDACs) drive innate immune cell-mediated inflammation. Here we identify class IIa HDACs as key molecular links between Toll-like receptor (TLR)-inducible aerobic glycolysis and macrophage inflammatory responses. A proteomic screen identified the glycolytic enzyme pyruvate kinase M isoform 2
