Cancer cells in culture obtain ATP and biosynthetic precursors primarily by aerobic glycolysis, not by mitochondrial glucose oxidation. In this issue of Cell Metabolism, Marin-Valencia et al. (2012) demonstrate that glioblastoma, an aggressive and, in culture, highly glycolytic cancer, primarily uses glucose oxidation to meet energetic and biosynthetic demands in vivo.
在培养的癌细胞中,细胞主要通过有氧糖酵解而非线粒体葡萄糖氧化获取三磷酸腺苷(ATP)和生物合成前体。在本期《细胞代谢》中,Marin-Valencia 等人(2012)证明,神经胶质瘤(一种侵袭性的、在培养中高度糖酵解的癌症)在体内主要利用葡萄糖氧化来满足能量和生物合成需求。
