Article Synopsis
  • Cancer cells require altered metabolism and nutrient uptake to maintain their harmful characteristics, particularly through pathways like the hexosamine biosynthetic pathway.
  • This pathway produces important substrates that influence glycosylation, which plays a critical role in tumor growth and development.
  • The review focuses on three specific types of glycosylation related to cancer progression and discusses potential inhibitors that could serve as anti-tumor treatments.
