Abstract P3-02-06: Tracing glucose catabolism in human triple negative breast cancer tumors

Triple negative breast cancer (TNBC) is an aggressive tumor type for which few targeted treatments exist. Altered tumor metabolism may provide novel diagnostic and therapeutic opportunities. Recent genetic analyses in TNBC demonstrate augmented expression of pathways related to glucose metabolism, including glycolysis, the pentose phosphate (PPP), and serine biosynthetic pathways. No studies, however, have directly probed how glucose is utilized...
