Cancer metabolism: the Warburg effect today.
One of the first studies on the energy metabolism of a tumour was carried out, in 1922, in the laboratory of Otto Warburg. He established that cancer cells exhibited a specific metabolic pattern, characterized by a shift from respiration to fermentation, which has been later named the Warburg effect. Considerable work has been done since then, deepening our understanding of the process, with co...
متن کامل“Warburg Effect” and Mitochondrial Metabolism in Skin Cancer
Skin cancer is the most common type of cancer in the United States, with an increasing annual rate. Defining the mechanism of skin cancer malignancy and progression is the first step towards skin cancer prevention and therapy. “Warburg Effect” describes the preference of glycolysis and lactate fermentation rather than oxidative phosphorylation for energy production in cancer cells, which also p...
متن کاملWarburg effect or reverse Warburg effect? A review of cancer metabolism.
Cancer is a major threat to human health. A considerable amount of research has focused on elucidating the nature of cancer from its pathogenesis to treatment and prevention. Tumor cell metabolism has been considered a hallmark of cancer. Cancer cells differ from normal cells through unlimited cell division, and show a greater need for energy for their rapid growth and duplication. Research on ...
متن کاملCancer Cell Metabolism: Warburg and Beyond
Described decades ago, the Warburg effect of aerobic glycolysis is a key metabolic hallmark of cancer, yet its significance remains unclear. In this Essay, we re-examine the Warburg effect and establish a framework for understanding its contribution to the altered metabolism of cancer cells.
متن کاملTargeting Cancer Metabolism - Revisiting the Warburg Effects
After more than half of century since the Warburg effect was described, this atypical metabolism has been standing true for almost every type of cancer, exhibiting higher glycolysis and lactate metabolism and defective mitochondrial ATP production. This phenomenon had attracted many scientists to the problem of elucidating the mechanism of, and reason for, this effect. Several models based on o...
