Deregulated glucose metabolism fulfils the energetic and biosynthetic requirements for tumour growth driven by oncogenes. Because inhibition of oncogenic BRAF causes profound reductions in glucose uptake and a strong clinical benefit in BRAF mutant melanoma, we examined the role of energy metabolism in responses to BRAF inhibition. We observed pronounced and consistent decreases in glycolytic activity in BRAF mutant melanoma cells. Moreover, we identified a network of BRAF-regulated transcription factors that control glycolysis in melanoma cells. Remarkably, this network of transcription factors, including HIF1α, c-Myc and MondoA, drives glycolysis downstream of BRAFV600, is critical for responses to BRAF inhibition and is modulated by BRAF inhibition in clinical melanoma specimens. Furthermore, we show that concurrent inhibition of BRAF and glycolysis induces cell death in BRAF inhibitor-resistant melanoma cells. Thus, we provide a proof of principle for treatment of melanoma with combinations of BRAF inhibitors and glycolysis inhibitors.
