Aspartate signalling drives lung metastasis via alternative translation - Nature Aspartate in the tumour environment activates the N-methyl-d-aspartate receptor in cancer cells to induce cellular programmes that increase the aggressiveness of metastasis.

#WeekendRead! #MetabolismPower! @fendtlab.bsky.social &co show @ Nature that pulmonary aspartate favors lung metastases via CREB & DOHH dependent hypusination of the alternative translation factor eIF5A, driving TGFb & collagen deposition! www.nature.com/articles/s41...
