Tumour Biochemistry: Molecular Mechanisms and Metabolic Reprogramming in Cancer

This chapter investigates the biochemical hallmarks of malignancy, including oncometabolite accumulation, the Warburg effect, altered lipid and amino acid metabolism, and the biochemical interplay between tumour cells and the microenvironment. It evaluates the translational relevance of tumour biochemistry for cancer biomarker discovery, metabolic vulnerabilities, and targeted therapeutic strategies including immunometabolism.
