<i>Cis</i> -vaccenic acid is a key product of stearoyl-CoA desaturase 1 and a critical oncogenic factor in prostate cancer
2024-03-30
Abstract excerpt
<h4>Summary</h4> Altered monounsaturated fatty acid (MUFA) metabolism is a hallmark of oncogenic transformation. Recently, the MUFA cis -vaccenic acid (cVA) was identified as a putative regulator of prostate cancer cell viability. cVA production requires the activity of stearoyl CoA desaturase 1 (SCD1), an enzyme frequently dysregulated in cancer, but the role of cVA in regulating cancer cell phenotypes has not...
