New mechanism: How itaconate can slow lung cancer growth
A team of researchers from the German Center for Lung Research (DZL) has elucidated a previously poorly understood mechanism of tumor regulation: itaconate, a metabolic intermediate produced by certain immune cells, can influence the metabolism of lung cancer cells and tumor-associated macrophages, thereby inhibiting tumor growth.
