Abstract
During the tumorigenic process, cancer cells always readjust their metabolism to obtain the energy and metabolites to sustain their increased proliferation. The activation of oncogenes and the loss of tumor suppressors are key molecular events controlling the acquisition of metabolic reprogramming. Many factors can cause the occurrence of metabolic reprogramming in tumor cells, such as changes of tumor microenvironment, activation of oncogenes, and inactivation of tumor suppressor genes. Metabolic pathways such as glycolysis and glutamine metabolism can be altered in tumor cells, thereby making these metabolic pathways adapted to tumor survival and proliferation. These metabolic pathways of tumor cells generate specific metabolites, which have been reported as new clues for cancer treatment. Therefore, signature metabolites in cancers play very important roles in tumor progression and can be used in diagnosis and prognosis of cancers.
