LDHA and glioma: mRNA expression data indicated that: (i) GL261 LDH-A KD cells may have an improved ability to metabolize lactate into the TCA cycle; and (ii) that GL261 LDH-A KD cells can upregulate lipid metabolism/fatty acid oxidation pathways, whereas the other glioma cell lines (CT2A, and ALTS1C1) do not have this capacity.
