In cancer cells, major changes in gene expression increase glucose uptake to support their rapid growth. Unlike normal cells, which produce lactate only when oxygen is low, cancer cells convert much of the glucose to lactate even in the presence of adequate oxygen. This is known as the “Warburg Effect.”
Overexpression of the mucin proteins, especially MUC1, is associated with many types of cancer. [ 5 ] [ 6 ] Although some mucins are membrane -bound due to the presence of a hydrophobic membrane-spanning domain that favors retention in the plasma membrane , most mucins are secreted as principal components of mucus by mucous membranes or are ...

T cells must replicate after arriving at the tumor site to effectively kill the cancer cells, survive hostile elements and migrate through the stroma to the cancer cells. This is affected by the tumor microenvironment. The draining lymph nodes are the likely location for cancer specific T cell replication, although this also occurs within the ...
