The tumor microenvironment (TME) is complex and consists of different cell lineages besides the tumor cells, including endothelial cells, cancer-associated fibroblasts (CAFS), immune cells, as well as soluble components such as cytokines and metabolites, and extracellular matrix components. Reprogramming of energy metabolism is an important hallmark of neoplastic diseases. Compared to nor…
Although the literature indicates that tumor cells preferentially use the glycolytic pathway, there are tumors that use other substrates for metabolism, such as fatty acids and amino acids, including glutamine. The use of glutamine, by glutaminolysis, provides metabolic intermediates for the Krebs cycle, for the synthesis of macromolecules and for the redox balance. Tumor cells and immune…
