SCD1 is required for EGFR-targeting cancer therapy of lung cancer via re-activation of EGFR/PI3K/AKT signals
Abstract Background Cancer cells are characterized by aberrant activation of lipid biosynthesis, producing saturated fatty acids and monounsaturated fatty acids via stearoyl-CoA desaturases (SCD) for regulating metabolic and signaling platforms. SCD1 overexpression functions as an oncogene in lung c...
