Científicos descubren un catalizador del cáncer: detalles del estudio
Investigadores del Instituto Wistar revelaron una cadena bioquímica previamente desconocida mediante la cual la fructosa — uno de los edulcorantes más comunes en la dieta moderna — impulsa a las células del cáncer de ovario…

Researchers at the Wistar Institute have identified a biochemical pathway through which fructose, a common sweetener, may drive ovarian cancer cells to metastasize. The study, published in Nature Aging, found that surviving cancer cells after platinum-based treatment produce fructose, which signals nearby tumor cells to detach and spread. This discovery could reshape understanding of how diet influences cancer progression, though further research is needed to confirm clinical implications.
