The Brain Tumor Microenvironment is unique, but complex. Addressing the brain-specific metabolic demands of tumor cells metastasizing to the brain gives new therapeutic opportunities for the fatal disease.

We discovered that Glutamine synthesis have a role in breast cancer cells growing in the brain. To get a deeper understanding of the role of Glutamine Synthetase (GLUL) and Astrocytes (GFAP) on breast cancer cells growing in the Brain Microenvironment.
