    New study from @SJMorrison_ lab @Nature figured out why many cancers metastasize to lymph nodes before forming distant tumors. Lymph protects them from oxidative stress. Melanoma cells take up anti-oxidants from lymph that prevent ferroptosis in the blood.

    New research from @M_Agathocleous lab in @Cell_Metabolism suggests metabolic features of #cancer cells could be inherited from the normal stem or progenitor cell type of origin. Learn more about this study. ⤵️
