Book excerpt: Many cells, including immune, neuronal, cancer and stem cells, become dependent on aerobic glycolysis to escape apoptosis and accommodate their bioenergetics needs. How this metabolic change, also known as the Warburg effect, is regulated remains largely unknown. The Warburg effect has been widely investigated in cancer cells where it was first observed with the aim of decoding the molecular networks controlling its activation for therapeutic purposes. This Research Topic aimed to discuss and review all the intracellular signaling regulating the Warburg effect in cancerous and normal non-cancerous cells though original research articles, mini reviews and reviews.
