Why Warburg Works: Lactate Controls Immune Evasion through GPR81

Lactate accumulation in tumors—a hallmark of the Warburg effect—has recently been shown to regulate cancer cell metabolism and survival through autocrine activation of GPR81. Now, Brown et al. (2020) demonstrate that lactate surprisingly also controls immune evasion through paracrine activation of G...

Zusammenfassung:Lactate accumulation in tumors—a hallmark of the Warburg effect—has recently been shown to regulate cancer cell metabolism and survival through autocrine activation of GPR81. Now, Brown et al. (2020) demonstrate that lactate surprisingly also controls immune evasion through paracrine activation of GPR81 on stromal dendritic cells.
