Glucose deprivation induces G2/M transition-arrest and cell death in N-GlcNAc2-modified protein-producing renal carcinoma cells.
Some cancer cells can survive under glucose deprivation within the microenvironment of a tumor. Recently, we reported that N-linked (β-N-acetylglucosamine)2 [N-GlcNAc2]-modified proteins induce G2/M arrest and cell death under glucose deprivation. Here, we investigated whether such a response to glu...

Some cancer cells can survive under glucose deprivation within the microenvironment of a tumor.
