Cancer stem cells have an "energy addiction" scientists may be able to exploit

High-risk MDS stem cells appear to have an unexpected "energy addiction," relying far more heavily than healthy blood-forming cells on a molecule called NAD; disrupting this energy pathway selectively weakened the cancer-driving cells, revealing a potential new target for treatment.
