title: A Glycolytic Solution for Pluripotent Stem Cells.
abstract: Glycolysis is an essential component of cellular metabolism associated with pluripotent stem cells (PSCs). Two new papers, one by Gu et al. (2016) in this issue of Cell Stem Cell and one by Zhang et al. (2016) in Cell Reports, demonstrate that glycolytic flux is dynamically increased in human primed PSCs upon feeder-free cultivation or conversion into the naive state.
