Contents

N-acetylasparate (NAA), previously considered a brain-specific metabolite, is found in several cancers. However, whether it plays a role in tumor growth or survival is not fully understood. We provide evidence that NAA prevents cell death in low-glucose conditions via sustaining intracellular UDP-N-acetylglucosamine (UDP-GlcNac) levels, suppressing...
