One of the key events in cancer development is the ability of tumor cells to overcome nutrient deprivation and hypoxia. Among proteins performing metabolic adaptation to the various cellular nutrient conditions, liver kinase B 1 (LKB1) and its main downstream target adenosine monophosphate (AMP)-activated protein kinase α (AMPKα) are important sensors of energy requirements within the cell. Although LKB1 was originally described as a tumor suppressor, given its role in metabolism, it potentially acts as a double-edged sword. AMPKα,
