The activation of lactate dehydrogenase induced by mTOR drives neoplastic change in breast epithelial cells.

mTOR kinase and the A isoform of lactate dehydrogenase (LDH-A) are key players controlling the metabolic characteristics of cancer cells. By using cultured human breast cells as a "metabolic tumor" model, we attempted to explore the correlation between these two factors. "Metabolic tu...
