The miR-125a/HK2 axis regulates cancer cell energy metabolism reprogramming in hepatocellular carcinoma

Abstract The Warburg effect is a metabolic hallmark of cancer. Tumor cells rapidly adjust their energy source to glycolysis in order to efficiently proliferate in a hypoxic environment, but the mechanism underlying this switch remains incompletely understood. Here, we show that hypoxia potently indu...
