GLS1 promotes proliferation in hepatocellular carcinoma cells via AKT/GSK3β/CyclinD1 pathway

Glutamine metabolism is an important metabolic pathway for cancer cell survival, and there is a critical connection between tumor growth and glutamine metabolism. However, the role of GLS1 in hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) progression remains to be elucidated. In this study, we reported that GLS1 expression was significantly increased in HCC tissues and correlated with serum AFP, tumor differentiation, lymphatic metastasis, TNM stage, and poorer...
