Reductive carboxylation was demonstrated for IDH2 in 2002 [65] and was indicated for cancer cells in transformed brown adipocytes [22], pediatric glioma SF188 cells [23, 41], and UOK262 cells (derived from a renal tumor in a patient with hereditary leiomyomatosis, these cells are defective in respiration and devoid of fumarate hydratase activity) [2]. This evidence concerns the gene IDH2 and cancer.
