The Importance of Mitochondrial Pyruvate Carrier in Cancer Cell Metabolism and Tumorigenesis
Pyruvate is a key molecule in the metabolic fate of mammalian cells; it is the crossroads from where metabolism proceeds either oxidatively or ends with the production of lactic acid. Pyruvate metabolism is regulated by many enzymes that together control carbon flux. Mitochondrial pyruvate carrier (...
