TAMC-derived creatine sustains glioblastoma growth

Huiwen Yan, Pengcheng Bu

Abstract

Tumor-associated myeloid cells (TAMCs) are the predominant immune population in glioblastoma (GBM), but the definite role of TAMCs in GBM tumorigenicity remains uncertain. In this issue of Cell Metabolism, Rashidi et al. identify a specific population of TAMCs surrounding hypoxic regions of GBM. These TAMCs provide creatine to nearby tumor cells to promote GBM progression.
