Taurine, a common ingredient in energy drinks, has been linked to leukemia cell growth. New research suggests targeting taurine uptake for leukemia treatment strategies.
US researchers have found that taurine, an amino acid often added to energy drinks such as Red Bull and Celsius, can act as a fuel source for leukemia cancer cells, which develop in bone marrow.
ABOUT THE LEUKEMIA & LYMPHOMA SOCIETY The Leukemia & Lymphoma Society® (LLS) is the global leader and innovator in creating a world without blood cancer.
Researchers also discovered that as leukemia cells drink up taurine, it promotes glycolysis (a breakdown of glucose to produce energy) to feed cancer growth.
