TLDR
It is reported that tumor 2HG is elevated in a high percentage of patients with cytogenetically normal acute myeloid leukemia (AML), and AML patients with IDH mutations display a significantly reduced number of other well characterized AML-associated mutations and/or associated chromosomal abnormalities, potentially implicating IDH mutation in a distinct mechanism of AML pathogenesis.

Cancer Genome Landscapes

TL;DR: This work has revealed the genomic landscapes of common forms of human cancer, which consists of a small number of “mountains” (genes altered in a high percentage of tumors) and a much larger number of "hills" (Genes altered infrequently).

Regulation of cancer cell metabolism

TL;DR: Interest in the topic of tumour metabolism has waxed and waned over the past century, but it has become clear that many of the signalling pathways that are affected by genetic mutations and the tumour microenvironment have a profound effect on core metabolism, making this topic once again one of the most intense areas of research in cancer biology.

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.

Consensus coding sequences of human breast and colorectal cancers

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors analyzed 13,023 genes in 11 breast and 11 colorectal cancers and found that individual tumors accumulate an average of 90 mutant genes but only a subset of these contribute to the neoplastic process.

Beyond aerobic glycolysis : Transformed cells can engage in glutamine metabolism that exceeds the requirement for protein and nucleotide synthesis

TL;DR: Transformed cells exhibit a high rate of glutamine consumption that cannot be explained by the nitrogen demand imposed by nucleotide synthesis or maintenance of nonessential amino acid pools, and glutamine metabolism provides a carbon source that facilitates the cell's ability to use glucose-derived carbon and TCA cycle intermediates as biosynthetic precursors.
