Recent studies further demonstrated the essential role of the fatty acid transport protein 2 (FATP2) in tumor associated neutrophils across multiple murine cancer models, including mice inoculated subcutaneously with EL4 (lymphoma), LLC (Lewis lung carcinoma), CT26 (colon carcinoma), and TC-1 (lung epithelial cancer) cells (108). This evidence concerns the gene SLC27A2 and cancer.
