In this review article, the main recent advancements in the field of proteomics and metabolomics and their application in cancer research are described. In the second part of the review the main metabolic alterations observed in cancer cells are thoroughly dissected, especially those involving anabolic pathways and NADPH-generating pathways, which indirectly affect anabolic reactions, other than the maintenance of the redox poise. Alterations to mitochondrial pathways and thereby deriving oncometabolites are also detailed. The third section of the review is a discussion of how and to what extent (mutations to) tumor suppressors and oncogenes end up influencing cancer cell metabolism and cell fate, either promoting survival and proliferation or autophagy and apoptosis. In the last section of the review, an overview is provided of therapeutic strategies that make use of metabolic reprogramming approaches. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR] |
