However, CRC cells frequently exhibit upregulated lipogenic enzymes, including fatty acid synthase (FASN), acetyl-CoA carboxylase (ACC), and stearoyl-CoA desaturase 1 (SCD1), along with enhanced lipid uptake mediated by transporters such as CD36 and fatty acid binding proteins (FABPs). The gene discussed is ACACA; the disease is colorectal carcinoma.
