Cancer, a highly morbid and mortal disease, which shows properties of metastasis thereby tumours formation at a distant site has been in the
last decade been probed and overwhelmingly researched and has been shown to have two significant emerging hallmarks in the pathogenesis of
metastasis which are (a) Reprogramming Energy Metabolism (REM) and (b) Evading Immune Destruction (EID). REM has the ability to reprogram
and modify the cellular status whilst EID has the ability to evade the natural killer (NK) cells and the macrophages. Cancer cells get benefited
by these features in terms of acquisition of nutrition, uptake of glucose, metabolic interactions with the micro environment, thereby resulting in
increased nitrogen demand. In this paper, we have discussed the benefits of these emerging hallmarks for cancer cells to sustain and proliferate
inside the body an.. Read More»
