Cutting off Cancer's Energy Supply
 

I found this copy of a very interesting article from Science Magazine. I have also mentioned in a thread on the main board, but thought that it was so interesting that it should be repeated here.

"..the fact that PET detects tumors is more evidence for a high level of glucose uptake." To me, a lay person, that in itself seems enough reason to research glycolysis.

Thanks for the article.

I have no idea where glucose fits in but have seen it mentioned.

Your post made me look out for it.

Glucose is reported in arthritis studies as increasing COX 2 expression so I will keep an eye out for trials with more info.

Also your post led me by accident to an article on critical injury and sepsis which has helped me get a glimmer of understanding as to how the inate immune system (of which omega six eicosanoid pathway is an important part.)

So many thanks for the post.

Thank you for this information. I had read that cancer loves sugar, so reduce intake to perhaps assist in 'starving' those cells.
