The induction of endoplasmic reticulum unfolded protein responses (UPRER) contributes to cancer development and progression. We recently linked microbiota-related triggers to the tumor-promoting role of signal transducer activating transcription factor 6 (ATF6) in the colon. Here we substantiate ...
Metabolic reprogramming is one of the hallmark events in colorectal cancer (CRC). Tumor cells adapt to microenvironmental changes by regulating energy and biomaterial metabolism. This study identified abnormal lipid accumulation and significant downregulation of fatty acid metabolism in CRC...
Nutrient-deprived conditions in the tumor microenvironment (TME) restrain cancer cell viability due to increased free radicals and reduced energy production. In pancreatic cancer cells, a cytosolic metabolic enzyme, wild-type isocitrate dehydrogenase 1 (wtIDH1), enables the adaptation to these co...
