TGF-beta signalling plays an important role in fibroblasts activation and tumour progression. Here, we report that the TGFBR-IDH1-Cav1 axis promotes TGF-beta signalling in fibroblasts. Our data demonstrated that IDH1 was downregulated by TGF-beta signalling in fibroblasts, and downregulation of IDH1 increased cellular concentration of alpha-ketoglutarate (alpha-KG) by accelerating glutamine metabolization. Interestingly, alpha-KG suppressed Cav1 expression through reducing the trimethylation of histone H3K4. Furthermore, Cav1 downregulation inhibited TGFBR protein degradation. In turn, the activated TGFBR promoted TGF-beta signalling. These findings demonstrated that metabolic enzyme IDH1 regulates TGF-beta signalling by feedback mechanism through alpha-KG and TGFBR-IDH1-Cav1 axis is important for TGF-beta signalling.
