Control of Cellular Redox State and Biomass Synthesis
To proliferate, tumors must synthesize sufficient biomass, such as proteins, nucleotides, and lipids. Many nutrients that produce biomass undergo oxidation reactions that require the redox cofactor NAD+ as an electron acceptor. Thus, the cellular redox state, measured by the NAD+/NADH ratio, can con...
