Metabolic alterations associated with bladder cancer progression were unveiled

A group of researchers from the Faculty of Health Sciences, University of Beira Interior (UBI-FCS), of the Institute of Biomedical Sciences Abel Salazar, University of Porto (ICBAS-UP) and of the School of Agriculture, Polytechnic Institute of Bragança (IPB) reported that the progression of bladder cancer from a less invasive stage to a highly invasive stage is accompanied by alterations in the metabolic phenotype of tumor cells. Since decades it is recognized that tumor cells have very specific metabolic properties associated with the malignant behavior of these cells.
