Cancer cell survival depends on collagen uptake into tumor-associated stroma
2022-04-05
Abstract excerpt
<title>Abstract</title> <p>Collagen I, the most abundant protein in humans, is ubiquitous in solid tumors where it provides a rich source of exploitable metabolic fuel for cancer cells. While tumor cells were unable to exploit collagen directly, here we show they can usurp metabolic byproducts of collagen-consuming tumor-associated stroma. Using genetically engineered mouse models, we discovered that solid tumor...
