Hypoxically cultured cells of oral squamous cell carcinoma increased their glucose metabolic activity under normoxic conditions

<h4>Objective</h4> The oxygen concentration within cancer tissue is known to be low, but is expected to increase rapidly when oxygen is supplied by angiogenesis and hematogenous metastasis, suggesting that rapid increases in oxygen levels might influence cancer cell physiology. Therefore...
