Targeting metabolism in breast cancer: How far we can go?

Abstract: receptor-2 targeted therapy, marked a new era of breast cancer treatment. However, except for chemotherapy, an efficient drug treatment to improve the overall survival of breast cancer patients is still lacking for triple negative breast cancer. Furthermore, a certain proportion of breast cancer patients present with resistance to drug therapy, making it much more difficult to control the deterioration of the disease. Recently, altered energy metabolism has become one of the hallmarks of cancer, including brea… Show more

“…These lipid metabolites are associated with cell proliferation, cellular membrane synthesis and signaling molecules (4)(5)(6). Some of the dysregulated metabolic enzymes, such as the glucose transporter 1 (GLUT1), hexokinase 2, lactate dehydrogenase A, glutaminase and fatty acid synthase have been demonstrated to be novel therapeutic targets of cancers (7). The metabolomics in serum or plasma will be novel diagnostic approach in clinic (8).…”

“…Most breast cells acquire fatty acids from circulation system. However, breast cancer cells synthesize fatty acids for structured lipid synthesis (7). Fatty acid synthase (FAS) is an important enzyme in lipid synthesis pathway.…”

“…In a recent study, Willmann et al (39), used metabolomic profiling to sub-classify different breast cancer cell lines and differentiate not only between them, but also between the cancer cell lines and a non-cancer breast epithelial cell line as well. Research has shown that elevated glycine and lactate indicate increased metabolic changes due to rapid growth of cancer cells, and hence poorer prognosis (5). …”

“…According to a review completed by Long and colleagues [19], many studies have shown dysregulation in cellular metabolism may associate with resistance to cancer treatment drugs. Various factors, including insulin, insulin-like growth factor (IGF), and inflammatory cytokines, may link diabetes to breast cancer mortality.…”
