Background: Cancer cell growth has been described to depend on glucose utilization. Activation of Akt and up-regulation of pyruvate kinase M2 (M2-PK) are attributes of tumour glycolysis.
Patients And Methods: In order to evaluate the prognostic relevance of glycolytic markers in breast cancer, the expression of pAkt and M2PK was analysed in 160 tissue samples.
