My favorite citric acid cycle fact is that cancer cells often just stop doing it. Something in the pentose shunt pathway provides a critical metabolite, because just about every cancer mass you’ll find is busy with ‘not’ the citric acid cycle and is kicking out those products. My cancer biology professor didn’t really have a good answer as to why (it wasn’t his specialty, he just got told to teach it, lol).
