Normal and cancer cell functions. Physiologic functions are colored in blue. Upregulated functions are colored in red and are critical for cancer cell survival. Normally, the mitochondrial transmembrane potential (Δψ) is polarized (negative inside). In cancer cells, the Δψ is more hyperpolarized than normal cells.
