Warburg effects on cancer cells survival: the role of sugar starvation in cancer therapy.
CONCLUSION: As cancer cells use glucose for aerobic glycolysis as a preferred substrate for energy yielding metabolism, we discuss in this review the Warburg effect and a strategy of starving cancer from glucose to prevent cancer cell survival and induce apoptosis in various types of cancer which could be the key to future treatment.
