Our new study shows mitochondrial amino acid fermentation as the missing link in sustaining cancer cell energy metabolism and viability in hypoxia. (doi.org/10.1101/2024.0…).

Is today’s resistance by the cancer establishment to the mitochondrial metabolic theory like the resistance of the Catholic Church to the heliocentric theory of the solar system? Look carefully at the Graphical Abstract in our article (doi.org/10.3390/metabo…).

Pablo Kelly begins his 10th year of survival with terminal stage 4 brain cancer without ever receiving radiation or chemotherapy (doi: 10.3389/fnut.2021.682243). Please visit his website for information on his non-toxic metabolic therapy (pablosbrainjourney.com).

High grade gliomas (HGG) are the leading cause of cancer death in children. Our latest preclinical study shows how the ketogenic diet can enhance therapeutic action while reducing toxicity of cancer drugs used for managing pediatric HGG.(doi.org/10.1101/2023.0…)

Our new study shows that OxPhos is not needed for the viability of cultured breast and liver tumor cells making oxygen consumption an ambiguous marker for ATP synthesis through OxPhos (doi: doi.org/10.1101/2022.1…).

Extraordinary radiographic and clinical responses were recently documented for several malignant brain cancer patients that were treated with non-toxic ketogenic metabolic therapy at the Barrow Neurological Institute, Phoenix, AZ (DOI: 10.7759/cureus.26457)

Our new study shows that glutamine-driven ATP synthesis through mitochondrial substrate level phosphorylation can compensate for OxPhos loss under hypoxia. Tumor cells can also use this mechanism to remain viable under limited oxygen. (doi.org/10.1101/2022.0…).

Glucose and glutamine drive the rapid growth of GBM, a deadly brain cancer. Radiotherapy increases glucose and glutamine in the GBM microenvironment. Do the GBM survival data in Figure 1 of our attached paper fit Einstein’s definition of insanity? (10.3389/fonc.2022.968351).

Glucose and glutamine drive glioblastoma (GBM), a deadly type of brain cancer. Radiation increases glucose and glutamine in the microenvironment. Should radiation therapy be justified for GBM in light of this? (doi: 10.3389/fnut.2021.682243; DOI 10.1007/s11064-019-02795-4)
