Additionally, c-Myc also affects the lipid metabolism reprogramming of tumor cells by regulating genes related to fatty acid metabolism, including ATP citrate lyase, acetyl CoA carboxylase α, stearoyl CoA desaturase and fatty acid synthase (FASN) (Jia et al., 2020; Li et al., 2016a; Liu et al., 2017b). This evidence concerns the gene MYC and neoplasm.
