New insights into cell metabolism and how it is altered in disease conditions
While cell metabolism is what helps cancer cells grow and proliferate, it may also hold the key to developing new ways to diagnose and treat the disease. But this requires that we first fully understand the inner workings of this hugely complex system – which is exactly what the EU-funded CancerFluxome project set out to do.
