Expert view: Creating metabolic liabilities to target cancer
As the pace of genetic approaches to combating cancer slows, researchers are focusing on novel approaches to identify and create metabolic liabilities in cells. Cancer cells rewire their metabolism to survive and proliferate rapidly; however, there is no single metabolic phenotype that enables this rewired state.
