Oncogenes Meet Metabolism

Discover the groundbreaking insights in "Oncogenes Meet Metabolism" by Guido Kroemer, published by Springer-Verlag Berlin and Heidelberg GmbH & Co. KG in 2010. This compelling book delves into the pivotal research initiated by Otto Warburg in the 1920s, where he first identified the phenomenon of 'aerobic glycolysis.' This process describes how tumor cells can convert glucose into lactate even in the presence of normal oxygen levels, shedding light on the metabolic adaptations of cancer cells. With 265 pages of in-depth analysis and exploration, this softcover reprint of the hardcover 1st edition from 2008 is an essential read for anyone interested in the intersection of oncology and metabolism. Enhance your understanding of cancer biology and the metabolic processes that drive tumor growth with this informative resource.
