The multifaceted roles of fatty acid synthesis in cancer
Abstract
Lipid metabolism, in particular the synthesis of fatty acids (FAs), is an essential cellular process that converts nutrients into metabolic intermediates for membrane biosynthesis, energy storage and the generation of signalling molecules. This Review explores how different aspects of FA synthesis promote tumorigenesis and tumour progression. FA synthesis has received substantial attention as a potential target for cancer therapy, but strategies to target this process have not yet translated into clinical practice. Furthermore, efforts to target this pathway must consider the influence of the tumour microenvironment.

De novo fatty acid biosynthesis is a key metabolic requirement for some cancers.
“Since then, numerous studies have identified de novo fatty acid biosynthesis as a key metabolic requirement for some cancers, and it has been dubbed by some as a distinct metabolic “hallmark of the transformed phenotype” (Kuhajda et al., 1994; Menendez and Lupu, 2006; Rohrig and Schulze, 2016).”
From Targeting Metabolism for Cancer Therapy (2017) · cites this paper as Rohrig and Schulze, 2016
Fatty acids are a major source of cellular energy, particularly under conditions of nutrient stress.
“Therefore, FAs are a major source of cellular energy, particularly under conditions of nutrient stress.”

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
