Amino acid transporters in breast cancer: promising prognostic markers and emerging targets across molecular subtypes

Background: To maintain the necessary energy and cellular building blocks, tumour cells selectively upregulate expression of cell-surface nutrienttransporters. One of the most prominent are amino acid transporters, which catalyse the uptake of vital amino acids, particularly glutamine. Glutamine pro...
