Abstract: Tumor drug resistance is currently one of the most difficult clinical problems. There are many theories on the mechanism of tumor drug resistance, and metabolic reprogramming is one of its mechanisms. Tumor cells undergo metabolic reprogramming to meet the energy requirements of proliferation, especially the changes in the glucose metabolism. This article reviews the glucose metabolism reprogramming-related enzymes and the associated small molecule inhibitors that reverse tumor drug resistance.

Key words: metabolic reprogramming, Warburg effect, drug resistance, glucose metabolism, small molecule inhibitors
