Fatty Acid Synthesis and Degradation Interplay to Regulate the Oxidative Stress in Cancer Cells

Both cytosolic fatty acid synthesis (FAS) and mitochondrial fatty acid oxidation (FAO) have been shown to play a role in the survival and proliferation of cancer cells. This study aimed to confirm experimentally whether FAS and FAO coexist in breast cancer cells (BCC). By feeding cells with 13C-labe...
