Aurora kinase A inhibition reverses the Warburg effect and elicits unique metabolic vulnerabilities in glioblastoma

Glioblastoma patients are treated with Aurora kinase A (AURKA) inhibitors but resistance can occur. Here, the authors show that AURKA inhibition induces metabolic reprogramming, which leads to increased mitochondrial activity and inhibition of oxidative metabolism sensitizes glioblastoma cells to AU...
