Zusammenfassung

In recent years, the characterization of cancer-dependent metabolic remodeling has been the focus of a growing number of studies. In particular, the metabolic requirements for cell proliferation have been extensively studied. Within this project, the scientists are interest in unique metabolic processes that do not fall under the category of ?proliferation-dependent", but instead are more likely to be involved in the transition of cancer cells to a more aggressive state. By executing the epithelial-mesenchymal transition (EMT) program, carcinoma cells gain stem-like properties, such a...
