The brain is a common metastatic site for carcinoma, and metabolic reprogramming is crucial for organ-tropic metastatic formation. Li et al. found RARRES2 deficiency affected lipid metabolic reprogramming through PTEN-mTOR-SREBP1 pathway and promoted BCBrM. Other studies revealed that lipid metabolic reprogramming is part of metabolic adaptation to central nervous system. Overall, there is an intricate connection between lipid metabolism and brain metastases, and disrupting this connection may be a potential therapeutic target for BCBrM treatment.
脑是癌常见的转移部位,代谢重编程对于器官特异性转移灶的形成至关重要。李等人发现视黄醇脱氢酶12(RARRES2)缺陷通过磷酸酶和张力蛋白同源物(PTEN)-雷帕霉素靶蛋白(mTOR)-固醇调节元件结合蛋白1(SREBP1)途径影响脂质代谢重编程,并促进乳腺癌脑转移(BCBrM)。其他研究表明,脂质代谢重编程是对中枢神经系统代谢适应的一部分。总体而言,脂质代谢与脑转移之间存在复杂的联系,破坏这种联系可能是BCBrM治疗的一个潜在治疗靶点。
