Overexpression of Fatty Acid Synthase (FASN) correlates with poor prognoses and treatment resistance in NSCLC (10), and stearoyl CoA desaturase 1 (SCD1) is highly expressed in lung adenocarcinomas promoting in vitro and in vivo tumorigenesis, cell migration and invasion (52). This evidence concerns the gene FASN and non-small cell lung carcinoma.
