Recent years have witnessed an increasing interest at understanding the role of
myeloid-derived suppressor cells (MDSCs) in cancer-induced immunosuppression,
with efforts to inhibit their maturation and/or their activity. We have thus
modelled MDSCs central carbon metabolism and bioenergetics dynamic, calibrating
the model using experimental data on in vitro matured mice bone marrow cells into
MDSCs. The model was then used to probe the cells metabolic state and dynamics,
performing a dynamic metabolic flux analysis (dMFA) study. Indeed, MDSCs
maturation correlates with a high glycolytic flux contributing to up to 95% of
the global ATP turnover rate, while most of the glucose-derived carbon enters the
TCA cycle. Model simulations also reveal that pentose phosphate pathway and
oxidative phosphorylation activities were kept at minimal levels to ensure NADPH
production and anabolic precursors synthesis. Surprisingly, MDSCs
immunosuppressive activity, i.e. L-arginine uptake, metabolism and endogenous
synthesis, only consumes sparse quantities of energy-rich nucleotides (ATP and
NADPH). Therefore, model simulations suggest that MDSCs exhibit a heterogeous
metabolic profile similar to tumour cells. This behavior is probably an indirect
immunosuppressive mechanism where MDSCs reduce the availability of carbon sources
in the tumour periphery microenvironment, which could explain the dysfuntion and
death of immune effector cells.
