Targeting the lactic acid metabolic pathway for antitumor therapy.
Molecular Therapy Oncolytics 2023 December 20
Lactic acid is one of the most abundant products of cellular metabolism and has historically been considered a cell-damaging metabolic product. However, as research has deepened, the beneficial effects of lactic acid on tumor cells and the tumor microenvironment have received increasing attention from the oncology community. Lactic acid can not only provide tumor cells with energy but also act as a messenger molecule that promotes tumor growth and progression and protects tumor cells from immune cells and killing by radiation and chemotherapy. Thus, the inhibition of tumor cell lactic acid metabolism has emerged as a novel antitumor treatment strategy that can also effectively enhance the efficacy of conventional antitumor therapies. In this review, we classify the currently available therapies targeting lactic acid metabolism and examine their prospects for clinical application.
