It has long been known that our bodies derive energy from sugar. Researchers at RPTU University Kaiserslautern-Landau have now discovered that sugar breakdown produces an intermediate product that is also crucial for the motility of human cells. The new findings, published in Nature Cell Biology, are likely to be relevant for understanding several biological processes, including cell migration in embryonic development, the migration of metastatic cancer cells and wound healing.
