PKM2/PKM1 ratio
-PKM (pyruvate kinase M) exists mainly as two splice isoforms: PKM1 and PKM2.
-PKM1 is constitutively active and typically found in tissues with high-energy demands (e.g., muscle, brain).
-PKM2 is less active under some conditions and is highly regulated; importantly, it is often upregulated in cancers.
- A higher PKM2/PKM1 ratio is thought to promote the “Warburg effect” (aerobic glycolysis) that benefits rapidly proliferating tumor cells by providing biosynthetic precursors even though it is less energy efficient.
-An increased PKM2/PKM1 ratio has been associated with enhanced tumor cell proliferation, survival, and metastasis.

Colon cancer can start anywhere in the colon, (5 feet long) and absorbs water from stool. Rectal cancer starts in the rectum, which is the last 12 centimeters.
