Successful weight loss reduces healthcare expenses over time: fewer medications for obesity-related conditions, lower risk of costly interventions, and improved quality of life that has economic value even if it does not show up on a balance sheet
Dysregulation of the de novo serine synthesis pathway impairs T-cell proliferation and their antitumor immune function ( + T-cell infiltration and is highly upregulated in breast cancer and papillary renal cell carcinoma ( In addition, activation of the serine synthesis pathway in glioblastoma attenuates the therapeutic efficacy of CAR-T cells, whereas PHGDH inhibition restores the antitumor activity of immune cells by enhancing STAT1 signaling ( Taken together, the de novo serine synthesis pathway (SSP) serves as a critical component of tumor metabolic reprogramming, driving malignant tumor progression through multi-dimensional regulatory mechanisms
