Type:
ECAR (Extracellular Acidification Rate) is a measure of the rate at which cells release acidic byproducts, such as lactic acid, into the extracellular environment. In the context of cancer, ECAR is often used as a proxy for glycolytic activity, as cancer cells often exhibit increased glycolysis, even in the presence of oxygen.

Studies have shown that cancer cells often have a higher ECAR compared to normal cells, indicating that they are producing more acidic byproducts. This is thought to be due to the fact that cancer cells often rely more heavily on glycolysis for energy production, even in the presence of oxygen.
-ECAR reflects the glycolysis activity
