DAXX drives de novo lipogenesis and contributes to tumorigenesis
Cancer cells exhibit elevated lipid synthesis. In breast and other cancer types, genes involved in lipid production are highly upregulated, but the mechanisms that control their expression remain poorly understood.

Lipogenesis in human adipose tissue
The pathways and some critical enzymes involved in lipogenesis in adipose tissue from 82 patients have been studied. Of the glucose-(14)C metabolized to lipid by isolated adipose cells, approximately 0.6% was recovered in fatty acids and the rest in glyceride-glycerol. Palmitate-1-(14)C was readily incorporated into neutral lipid.

The role of the glucose-sensing transcription factor carbohydrate-responsive element-binding protein pathway in termite queen fertility [PDF]
Termites are among the few animals that themselves can digest the most abundant organic polymer, cellulose, into glucose. In mice and Drosophila, glucose can activate genes via the transcription factor carbohydrate-responsive element-binding protein ...

Serotonin Regulates Lipogenesis in Adipose Tissues through Serotonin Receptor 2A [PDF]
Background Obesity is defined as excessive fat mass and is a major cause of many chronic diseases such as diabetes, cardiovascular disease, and cancer. Increasing energy expenditure and regulating adipose tissue metabolism are important targets for the ...

A newly discovered role of metabolic enzyme PCK1 as a protein kinase to promote cancer lipogenesis
Highly active lipogenesis is essential for rapid tumor growth. Sterol regulatory element‐binding protein (SREBP) is a key transcriptional factor for lipogenesis and activated by reduced sterol and oxysterol levels.
