Phosphatidate phosphatase (PAP) enzymes play a pivotal role in lipid metabolism, acting as a control point that directs metabolic flux between membrane phospholipid synthesis and the production of ...

Faulty lipid regulation in CLL patients impairs T-cell function, affecting treatment outcomes and resistance to current therapies. Differences in lipid metabolism between CLL patients and healthy ...

The raw material for de novo fatty acid synthesis is acetyl-CoA, which can be obtained via the citrate shuttle pathway or from acetic acid. ACC and FASN catalyze the conversion of acetyl-CoA into ...

Lipid metabolism has emerged as a central player in the progression and therapy resistance of breast cancer, particularly the aggressive subtype known as triple-negative breast cancer (TNBC). This ...

Mutations in the lipid transporter ABCA7 are known to elevate the risk of Alzheimer’s disease, but how they do so has been murky. Now, scientists led by Li-Huei Tsai at MIT in Cambridge, Massachusetts ...

This article summarizes metabolic reprogramming in prostate cancer (PCa). Early PCa relies more on glycolysis.

Prostate cancer (PCa) is one of the most common malignant tumors among men worldwide. Following androgen deprivation therapy ...
