Excited to share our latest research, now out in @Oncogene! We reveal new insights from combining Palbociclib and glutaminase inhibition in colorectal cancer. Check it out:

[Oncogene Journal @oncogenejournal]

Research at @IBUB_UB found that combining Palbociclib and a Glutaminase inhibitor has a strong synergistic effect, preventing #resistance and significantly reducing tumor growth in #colorectal cancer cells.
