mouse study holds clue to starving cancer tumor cells to death

Cancer cells, like all living things, require nutrients to survive and grow. Scientists have long been focused on finding ways to starve tumors by targeting their main food source, glucose. However, according to William Lowry, a biologist at the University of California, Los Angeles, the approach of blocking glucose metabolism has been largely ineffective.

Lowry and his team recently published a study in Science Advances that sheds light on why targeting glucose alone may not be enough to effectively treat cancer. Their research, conducted in mice, suggests that cancer cells have the ability to consume multiple food sources, and blocking the metabolism of at least two of these nutrients is crucial for impacting tumor growth.

This new understanding of cancer cell metabolism could lead to the development of innovative treatment strategies that target multiple nutrient pathways, rather than focusing solely on glucose. By disrupting the cancer cells’ ability to metabolize key nutrients, researchers may be able to effectively starve tumors and inhibit their growth.

The study’s findings highlight the importance of considering the complex metabolic processes involved in cancer cell survival. By uncovering the role of multiple nutrients in fueling tumor growth, scientists have the opportunity to explore new avenues for targeted cancer therapies.

In conclusion, the research conducted by Lowry and his team provides valuable insights into the metabolic dependencies of cancer cells. By targeting multiple nutrient pathways, researchers may be able to develop more effective treatments that disrupt the energy supply to tumors and ultimately improve patient outcomes. This study opens up new possibilities for the field of cancer metabolism research and offers hope for the development of novel therapies that can effectively starve tumors to death.
