Identifying novel glioma-driven signaling molecules and exploring the corresponding molecularly targeted therapies are essential for better and efficient glioma therapy. YME1L (YME1 Like 1 ATPase), a primary member of the AAA family of ATPase, is located at the inner mitochondrial membrane (Anand et al., 2014; MacVicar et al., 2019; Ohba et al., 2020). YME1L is essential for maintaining mitochondrial morphology, function, and plasticity (Anand et al., 2014; MacVicar et al., 2019; Ohba et al., 2020). YME1L assembles into a homo-oligomeric complex within the inner mitochondrial membrane (Anand et al., 2014; MacVicar e t al., 2019; Ohba et al., 2020). Moreover, YME1L can degrade mitochondrial proteins, including lipid-transferring proteins, IM translocation proteins, and the dynamin-like GTPase optic atrophy 1 (OPA1)(Anand et al., 2014; MacVicar et al., 2019; Ohba et al., 2020). YME1L depletion accelerated OMA1-dependent long-form OPA1 cleavage, resulting in short-form OPA1 accumulation, increased mitochondrial fission, and mitochondrial fragmentations (Wai e t al., 2015). YME1L controls the accumulation of respiratory chain subunits and is required for apoptotic resistance, cristae morphogenesis, and cell proliferation (Stiburek et al., 2012). YME1L-mediated mitochondrial reshaping is required for the growth of pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma cells (MacVicar et al., 2019). Conversely, YME1L silencing or knockout disrupted mitochondrial functions and inhibited PDAC cell growth (MacVicar et al., 2019). Nevertheless, the expression and potential functions of YME1L in human glioma have not been studied. Gαi proteins, or guanine nucleotide-binding protein G (i) subunit alpha, have three subunits, Gαi1, Gαi2, and Gαi3 (Fan et al., 2011). Our group has identified an essential role of Gαi proteins in transducing signals by multiple receptor tyrosine kinases (RTKs)(Cao et al., 2009; Zhang et al., 2015; Liu et al., 2018; Marshal l et al., 2018; Sun et al., 2018; Bai et al., 2021; Wang et al., 2021). Gαi proteins associated with ligand-activated RTKs, required for the transduction of downstream oncogenic signalings, including phosphatidylinositol-3-kinase (PI3K)-Akt-mammalian target of rapamycin (mTOR) and extracellular signal-regulated kinase (Erk)-mitogen-activated protein kinase (MAPK) cascades (Cao e t al., 2009; Zhang et al., 2015; Liu et al., 2018; Marshall et al., 2018; Sun et al., 2018; Bai et al., 2021; Wang et al., 2021). Gαi overexpression is also essential for the progression of glioma and other cancers (Liu et al., 2018; Lv et al., 2021; Wang et al., 2021). In this study, we will show that YME1L overexpression exerts pro-tumorigenic activity in glioma by promoting Gαi1 expression and Akt activation. First, The Cancer Genome Atlas (TCGA) database was first consulted to retrieve YME1L RNA sequencing data in human glioma. As shown, in the human glioma tissues (“Tumor,” n= 166), the number of YME1L mRNA transcripts is significantly higher than that in the normal brain tissues (“Normal,” n= 1,157)(P< 0.001, Fig. 1A). Of the normal brain tissues, 1,152 of them were retrieved from the Genotype-Tissue Expression (GTEx) database and five tissues were from TCGA database (tumor-surrounding normal brain tissues)(Fig. 1A). The subgroup analyses based on clinical characteristics showed that high YME1L mRNA expression in human glioma tissues was correlated with IDH (isocitrate dehydrogenase) mutation (P< 0.001, Fig. 1B). It was not correlated with age (Fig. 1C) and sex (Fig. 1D) of the patients. To confirm the significance of the bioinformatics observations, we tested YME1L expression in local human glioma tissues (“T”) and surrounding …
