Glucose Metabolism Takes Center Stage in Epithelial-Mesenchymal Plasticity

Abstract

Aerobic glycolysis, or Warburg effect, has been associated with pathologies such as cancer. In this issue of Developmental Cell, Bhattacharya et al. show that aerobic glycolysis is required for neural crest migration in development. These findings point to a link between glucose metabolism and epithelial-mesenchymal plasticity in development and disease.
