Enhanced mitochondrial glutamine anaplerosis suppresses pancreatic cancer growth through autophagy inhibition
Cancer cells use precursors derived from tricarboxylic acid (TCA) cycle to support their unlimited growth. However, continuous export of TCA cycle intermediates results in the defect of mitochondrial integrity. Mitochondria glutamine metabolism plays an essential role for the maintenance of mitochon...
