MD Anderson studies reveal how cancer cells rewire metabolism to spread. A glucose–fructose mix promotes colorectal metastasis via cholesterol pathways, while fatty-acid oxidation driven by ACBP ...

Fructose, the most common food sweetener, is widely used in processed sugary beverages, candies, and baked goods. Excessive fructose intake is closely associated with metabolic diseases like obesity, ...

Glycolysis is a central metabolic pathway by which cells obtain energy from sugar. Cancer cells in particular have long been thought to depend on the energy obtained through glycolysis, a phenomenon ...

Sugar metabolism refers to the process by which the body breaks down carbohydrates into sugars, including glucose and fructose. The body uses these sugars as a source of energy. The body metabolizes ...

Glycolysis is an important sugar degradation pathway that cancer cells in particular depend on. Scientists at the German Cancer Research Center (DKFZ) have now shown that liver cancer cells in mice ...

High-fructose corn syrup, a sweetener made from corn starch, is widely found in common foods. Due to its widespread use, the consumption of fructose has increased over the past five decades. “If you ...
