SCD and malignant colon neoplasm: In order to clarify the role of fatty acid metabolic enzyme SCD1 in the cancer-related immune response, we evaluated the immunologic antitumor effects of SCD1 inhibition and its mechanism using C57BL/6 and Balb/C mice implanted with four different types of syngeneic murine tumors, including MC38 colon cancer cells, CT26 colon cancer cells, MCA205 sarcoma cells and 4T1 breast cancer cells.
