Tumor cells rely on metabolic reprogramming to meet their increased demands for energy and biomass. Such reprogramming is exemplified by increased rates of glucose uptake, greater utilization of glycolysis, and a reliance on glutaminolysis. We have developed a suite of bioluminescent assays that can monitor metabolites in all of these important pathways.
