Glucose starvation suppresses gastric cancer through targeting miR-216a-5p/Farnesyl-Diphosphate Farnesyltransferase 1 axis [PDF]
Background Fasting mimic diet is an effect approach for gastric cancer (GC) treatment. Exploring mechanisms of glucose deprivation-mediated GC suppression is required to develop novel therapeutic regimens. Farnesyltransferase 1 (FDFT1), as a novel target
