Proline metabolism supports metastasis formation and could be inhibited to selectively target metastasizing cancer cells
Metastasizing cancer cells rewire their metabolism to support their malignant phenotypes. Here, the authors show that the acquisition of a metastatic phenotype in breast cancer cell lines results in increased proline catabolism and that inhibition of this pathway decreases lung metastasis formation...
