Nathan Goodyear on 07 Oct 14This is an important study. Study found that Estradiol increased the transcription of pyruvate kinase M (PKM2)production in endometrial stromal cells. This increase in PKM2 shifted metabolism to a aerobic glycolysis pattern similar to the Warburg effect described in cancer. Additionally, increased PKM2 via Estradiol increased ER alpha transcription and functioned as a ER alpha coactivator.
