Inhibition of hepatic lipogenesis enhances liver tumorigenesis by increasing antioxidant defence and promoting cell survival

The lipogenic pathway is often upregulated in liver tumours and regarded as a therapeutic target. Here, the authors show instead that blocking lipogenesis via knockout of acetyl-CoA carboxylase genes results in increased susceptibility to liver tumorigenesis associated with an increased antioxidant...
