How Mitochondria Fuel Cancer Growth

In this video, we explore the critical role of mitochondrial dysfunction in cancer development. Learn how changes in cellular energy production from oxidative phosphorylation to glycolysis contribute to cancer cell survival and proliferation. We'll delve into the science behind this metabolic shift, its impact on cellular processes, and potential therapeutic approaches. Join us for a comprehensive overview of how understanding mitochondrial function can provide insights into new cancer treatments.
