Hi there,

in many papers the tumors are said to be highly glutaminolytic and it is shown in cell cultures especially in breast cancer models..however in animal models, it is shown that glutamine is very useful and effective..i think there is a controversy..do we feed tumor by giving glutamine? i did not see any research done in humans because of ethic problems i think..

What is your opinion?

best regards..

irem..
