Pfkp mediates metastasis through altered glycolysis in breast cancer
Abstract
Despite recent breakthroughs in
genetic profiling, breast cancer metastasis is still a considerable challenge
affecting treatment and overall patient survival. Therefore, the discovery of
target alternatives to restrain metastasis is urgently needed. In the current
study, we aimed to identify novel targets driving metastasis and elucidate the
underlying mechanisms.
