Epithelial-to-mesenchymal transition activates Bcat1 expression to promote recurrent tumor growth

2020-12-09

Abstract excerpt

Branched-chain amino acid metabolism has emerged as a crucial regulator of tumor proliferation. In particular, the branched-chain amino acid transaminase 1 (BCAT1), which catalyzes the conversion of branched-chain amino acids to α-keto acids in the cytoplasm, has been identified as a promising therapeutic target for several different cancer types, including gliomas and leukemias. BCAT1 expression has also been ass...
