Bruning et al. report that blocking fatty acid synthase (FASN) in endothelial cells (ECs) reduces angiogenesis by impairing EC proliferation. Mechanistically, FASN inhibition elevates the malonyl-CoA substrate pool, thereby increasing post-translational malonylation of mTOR and decreasing the pro-angiogenic mTORC1 activity.

Abstract
Bruning et al. report that blocking fatty acid synthase (FASN) in endothelial cells (ECs) reduces angiogenesis by impairing EC proliferation. Mechanistically, FASN inhibition elevates the malonyl-CoA substrate pool, thereby increasing post-translational malonylation of mTOR and decreasing the pro-angiogenic mTORC1 activity.File in questo prodotto:
