Background
Loss of ASS1 expression is one of the common metabolic alterations observed in many cancers, and it is a prognostic biomarker of reduced metastasis-free survival. ASS1 deficiency leads to the dependence of extracellular arginine for survival, proliferation, and cell growth. Ariginine starvation induces autophagy and apoptosis in ASS1 deficient cells and this has been exploited as a therapeutic intervention for the tumors with loss of ASS1 expression (4, 5). Pegylated arginine deiminase (ADI-PEG20), an enzyme that degrades arginine into citrulline, causes significant growth inhibition in tumors that have lost ASS1 expression, such as hepatocellular carcinoma, breast cancer, and sarcoma (6-8).
