Targeting Altered Energy Metabolism in Colorectal Cancer: Oncogenic Reprogramming, the Central Role of the TCA Cycle and Therapeutic Opportunities.

TL;DR: The identified cancer-specific metabolic transformations provided new therapeutic targets for the development of small molecule inhibitors, including α-lipoic acid derivative CPI-613, an inhibitor of both PDC and KGDH, and delineate its anti-tumor effects for targeted therapy.
Journal ArticleDOI

The biological underpinnings of therapeutic resistance in pancreatic cancer.

TL;DR: In this article, the authors discuss recent advances in understanding of the biological underpinnings of PDAC and their implications as targetable vulnerabilities in this highly lethal disease, and discuss the potential of these vulnerabilities to be exploited.

Epigenetic Crosstalk between the Tumor Microenvironment and Ovarian Cancer Cells: A Therapeutic Road Less Traveled

TL;DR: In this article, a review outlines basic epigenetic mechanisms, including DNA methylation, histone modifications, chromatin remodeling, and non-coding RNA regulators, and summarizes current knowledge on reciprocal interactions between each participant of the EOC cellular milieu and tumor cells in the context of aberrant epigenetic crosstalk.
Journal ArticleDOI

Drilling for Oil: Tumor-Surrounding Adipocytes Fueling Cancer

TL;DR: This review discusses recent advances in understanding of this metabolic symbiosis between adipocytes and cancer cells and underlines the differences in this metabolic crosstalk between the various types of cancer and their localization.
Journal ArticleDOI

Metabolism of Natural Killer Cells and Other Innate Lymphoid Cells.

TL;DR: How metabolic processes are affected, and how metabolic defects are coupled to dysfunction of ILCs, in disease settings are described, to summarized the current and potential directions for immunotherapy involving targeting of I LC metabolism.

Hallmarks of cancer: the next generation.

TL;DR: Recognition of the widespread applicability of these concepts will increasingly affect the development of new means to treat human cancer.

Normalization of Tumor Vasculature: An Emerging Concept in Antiangiogenic Therapy

TL;DR: Emerging evidence supporting an alternative hypothesis is reviewed—that certain antiangiogenic agents can also transiently “normalize” the abnormal structure and function of tumor vasculature to make it more efficient for oxygen and drug delivery.
Journal ArticleDOI

Molecular mechanisms and clinical applications of angiogenesis

TL;DR: Preclinical and clinical studies have shown new molecular targets and principles, which may provide avenues for improving the therapeutic benefit from anti-angiogenic strategies.

The Emerging Hallmarks of Cancer Metabolism

TL;DR: This Perspective has organized known cancer-associated metabolic changes into six hallmarks: deregulated uptake of glucose and amino acids, use of opportunistic modes of nutrient acquisition, useof glycolysis/TCA cycle intermediates for biosynthesis and NADPH production, increased demand for nitrogen, alterations in metabolite-driven gene regulation, and metabolic interactions with the microenvironment.

Coordinated regulation of myeloid cells by tumours

TL;DR: This work considers myeloid cells as an intricately connected, complex, single system and focuses on how tumours manipulate the myeloids system to evade the host immune response.
