Abstract
Cancer cell survival under metabolic stress is a critical step for metastasis. Here, the authors show that under glucose deprivation, Snail, a key regulator of the metastatic process, promotes survival by diverting glucose to the pentose phosphate pathway through repression of phosphofructokinase PFKP.
