Manuella Godoi: How Cancer Cells Induce Neuronal Mitochondrial Expansion to Fuel Tumor Growth

Manuella Godoi, Postdoctoral Researcher at University of Copenhagen, shared a post on LinkedIn about a recent article published on Nature:

“Cancer cells reprogram neighboring neurons to increase their mitochondrial mass, thereby promoting mitochondrial transfer to cancer cells. The molecular mechanisms driving this process remain unknown.”

Title: Neuronal transfer of mitochondria to tumor cells promotes cancer spread

Authors: Anand K. Singh and Yuan Pan
