Abstract Lipid metabolism reprogramming has emerged as a hallmark of malignant tumors. Lipids represent a complex group of biomolecules that not only compose the essential components of biological membranes and act as an energy source, but also function as messengers to integrate various signaling pathways. In tumor cells, de novo lipogenesis plays a crucial role in acquiring lipids to meet the demands of rapid growth. Increasing evidence has suggested that dysregulated lipid metabolism serves as a driver of cancer progression. Posttranslational modifications (PTMs), which occurs in most eukaryotic proteins throughout their lifetimes, affect the activity, abundance, function, localization, and interactions of target proteins. PTMs of crucial molecules are potential intervention sites and are emerging as promising strategies for the cancer treatment. However, there is limited information available regarding the PTMs that occur in cancer lipid metabolism and the potential treatment strategies associated with these PTMs. Herein, we summarize current knowledge of the roles and regulatory mechanisms of PTMs in lipid metabolism. Understanding the roles of PTMs in lipid metabolism in cancer could provide valuable insights into tumorigenesis and progression. Moreover, targeting PTMs in cancer lipid metabolism might represent a promising novel therapeutic strategy. |
