Direct evidence for cancer-cell-autonomous extracellular protein catabolism in pancreatic tumors
2017
Using a device implanted in KRAS-driven pancreatic tumors, authors demonstrate that cancer cells incorporate proteins in their microenvironment as a source of amino acids. This work provides a novel approach to study tumor metabolism that could be applied with therapeutic purposes.
