More than a half century ago, Otto Warburg discovered the cancer cells
prefer glycolysis, a rather inefficient metabolic pathway for reducing
glucose into energy. This peculiar preference of tumour cells has since
been recognised as a metabolic hallmark of cancers. Since evading
apoptosis is critical for cancer cells to achieve uncontrolled growth is
and proliferation, be metabolic features of cancers must play an
important role in regulating the apoptosis machinery. Thus a molecular
understanding of the link between metabolic and apoptotic sensitivity is
warranted.
Apoptosis is a highly regulated form of cell death that functions to mean
tissue in homeostasis by eliminating unnecessary or damaged cells. In
Caenorhabditis elegan, developmental apoptosis is controlled by an
elegant and linear genetic program. In mammals, however, the core
apoptotic program has been dramatically expanded, resulting in an
intricate suit of regulatory pathways that influence apoptotic sensitivity.
Although biochemical approaches have uncovered many factors that
