Accumulation of Krebs cycle intermediates and over-expression of HIF1alpha in tumours which result from germline FH and SDH mutations.

TL;DR: In this study, it is shown that FH-deficient cells and tumours accumulate fumarate and, to a lesser extent, succinate, and in situ analyses showed that these tumours also have over-expression of hypoxia-inducible factor 1alpha, activation of HIF1alphatargets, and high microvessel density.
Journal ArticleDOI

Reexamining cancer metabolism: lactate production for carcinogenesis could be the purpose and explanation of the Warburg Effect

TL;DR: It is posited that in carcinogenesis, aberrant cell signaling due to exaggerated and continually high lactate levels yields an inappropriate positive feedback loop that increases glucose uptake, glycolysis, lactate production and release, decreases mitochondrial function and clearance and upregulates glyCOlytic enzyme and monocarboxylate transporter expression thereby supporting angiogenesis, immune escape, cell migration, metastasis and self-sufficient metabolism.
Journal ArticleDOI

The Tumor Microenvironment: A Milieu Hindering and Obstructing Antitumor Immune Responses

TL;DR: This review intends to give a contemporary and detailed overview of the different roles of immune cells, exosomes, and molecules acting in the tumor microenvironment and how they relate to immune activation and escape.
Journal ArticleDOI

Hallmarks of glycosylation in cancer

TL;DR: How glycosylation is clearly an enabling characteristic that is causally associated with the acquisition of all the hallmark capabilities is discussed, which indicates that glycans play a role in every recognised cancer hallmark.
Journal ArticleDOI

Glucose conjugation for the specific targeting and treatment of cancer

TL;DR: This review summarizes the most salient examples of glycoconjugates, in which known cytotoxins or targeted anticancer therapeutics have been linked to glucose (or another glucose transporter substrate sugar) for improved cancer targeting and selectivity, and provides a series of guidelines for the design and mechanistic evaluation of future glycconjugates.
