additional information | construction of in p16/p19-/- mutant mice. Comparison of mouse survival and tumor incidence in three independent cohorts of p16/p19/Vnn1-/- versus p16/p19-/- mice, derived from two independently derived crosses between p16/p19-/- and Vnn1-/- mice. Whereas 35% p16p19-/- mice progressively develop lethal tumors within 220 days, 70% p16p19/Vnn1-/- die of aggressive tumors before 220 days. Whereas p16p19-/- mice develop various tumor types with a majority of lymphomas, p16/p19/Vnn1-/- mice predominantly develop skin STS typed as fibrosarcomas | Mus musculus |

physiological function | Vnn1 pantetheinase acts as a tumor suppressor for the development of aggressive soft tissue sarcomas (STS). The two products of pantetheinase activity exert complementary effects on the tumor, explaining the basis for Vnn1's suppression on tumor growth. Pantothenate production restores CoA levels leading to an enhanced mitochondrial activity, whereas cysteamine reduces glycolysis and prevents the transition to the Warburg effect, a feature of the most aggressive tumors. Vnn1 expression antagonizes the glycolytic switch in Ras-driven tumors. Vnn1 expression antagonizes the glycolytic switch in Ras-driven tumors | Mus musculus |
