Acute myeloid leukaemia (AML) cells metabolise glucose by glycolysis-based re-programming. However, how glucose uptake is partitioned between leukaemia cells and other cells of the bone marrow micro-environment is unstudied. We used a positron emission tomography (PET) tracer F-18 fluorodeoxyglucose ([F-18]-FDG) probe and transcriptomic analyses to detect glucose uptake by diverse cells in the bone marrow micro-environment in a MLL-AF9-induced mouse model. Leukaemia cells had the greatest glucose uptake with leukaemia stem and progenitor cells having the greatest glucose uptake. We also show the effects of anti-leukaemia drugs on leukaemia cell numbers and glucose uptake. Our data suggest targeting glucose uptake as a potential therapy strategy in AML if our observations are validated in humans with AML.
