Abstract
Breast cancer is a leading cause of mortality and the most prevalent form of malignant tumor among women worldwide. Breast cancer cells exhibit an elevated glycolysis and altered glucose metabolism. Moreover, these cells display abnormal glycosylation patterns, influencing invasion, proliferation, metastasis, and drug resistance. Consequently, targeting glycolysis and mitigating abnormal glycosylation represent key therapeutic strategies for breast cancer. This review underscores the importance of protein glycosylation and glucose metabolism alterations in breast cancer. The current research efforts in developing effective interventions targeting glycolysis and glycosylation are further discussed.
