In this study, Kreuzaler et al. perform zonal analysis to study metabolic heterogeneity in breast cancer and identify the metabolic dependency on pantothenic acid (vitamin B5) in areas of the tumor that show high expression levels of the oncogene MYC. Dietary restriction of vitamin B5 reverses several MYC-driven metabolic changes and hampers tumor progression.
