Small Extracellular Vesicle-Derived Nicotinamide Phosphoribosyltransferase (NAMPT) Induces Acyl-Coenzyme A Synthetase SLC27A4-Mediated Glycolysis to Promote Hepatocellular Carcinoma. [PDF]
J Extracell VesiclesNAMPT delivered by metastatic HCC cells‐derived sEV upregulates SLC27A4 expression via TLR4/NF‐кB dependent pathway. SLC27A4 acts as an acyl‐CoA synthetase and increases the level of intracellular TG, leading to DHAP‐mediated transition between lipogenesis and glycolysis.
