About this Research Topic
This Research Topic aims to explore the multifaceted role of cell metabolism in cancer, focusing on tumorigenesis, progression, drug resistance, and prognostic assessment. The objective is to gather innovative research and reviews that delve into the metabolic processes influencing cancer development and treatment outcomes. Key questions include how metabolic pathways contribute to drug resistance and the potential of metabolomics in identifying biomarkers for cancer prognosis. By examining these aspects, the research seeks to enhance our understanding of cellular metabolism's impact on cancer and uncover new avenues for therapeutic intervention.
To gather further insights in the realm of cellular metabolism and its implications in cancer, we welcome articles addressing, but not limited to, the following themes:
- Clinical metabolomics in the context of cancers.
- The effect of cell metabolism on drug resistance of cancers.
- The relationship between gene mutation and cell metabolism.
- The prognostic assessment of patients with cancers by metabolism-related biomarkers.
Keywords: cellular metabolism, cancer, phospholipid metabolism, amino acid metabolism, drug resistance
