The HMGB1 protein induces a metabolic type of tumour cell death by blocking aerobic respiration

HMBG1 is a protein expressed in natural killer cells and is important in immunosurveillance. In this study, the authors show that HMGB1 binds to and inhibits PKM2, resulting in a block in aerobic glycolysis and ultimately cell death.
