Abstract Introduction: Dysregulation of fatty acid metabolism often occurs in tumor, which mainly constitutes of fatty acid synthesis and oxidation. In recent years, studies found that fatty acid metabolism participated in regulation of tumor immune microenvironment, which further influenced the progress of cancer. Thus, it is important to explore the key fatty acid metabolism-related molecules, which not only affects the prognosis of ovarian cancer, but also shows a close correlation with immune microenvironment of cancer.Methods: Database from TCGA was used to explore the fatty acid metabolism-related molecules, which correlated with the prognosis of ovarian cancer using univariate and multivariate cox proportional regression model. Nomogram was constructed to predict the prognostic probability based on ACSM3 and clinicopathological parameters. GDSC database was used to investigate the chemosensitivity of ovarian cancer cells. The correlation between ACSM3 and immune status of ovarian cancer was analyzed by TIMER and TISIDB online tools. In addition, CCK8 assay was used to investigate the chemosensitivity of ovarian cancer cells, real time-PCR and western blot were used to investigate the expression of chemoresistance-related genes.Results: ACSM3 worked as an independent favorable prognostic molecule through univariate and multivariate cox regression analysis. For the use in clinical, nomogram was constructed, and higher expression of ACSM3 showed better prognosis. We found that ACSM3 could regulate PI3K/AKT signaling, and GDSC database showed that PI3K/AKT inhibitor could promote the chemosensitivity of ovarian cancer cells. In addition, the expression of ACSM3 showed significantly correlated with the immune status of ovarian cancer. In vitro experiments showed that ACSM3 can promote the chemosensitivity of ovarian cancer cells by inhibiting PI3K/AKT signaling pathway.Conclusion: Our results showed that ACSM3 acted as a favorable prognostic-related biomarker for ovarian cancer, which could promote chemosensitivity of ovarian cancer through inhibiting PI3K/AKT signaling pathway. This might be due to participate in regulating immune status of ovarian cancer microenvironment.

AbstractA common feature of cancer cells is their ability to rewire their metabolism to sustain the production of ATP and macromolecules needed for cell growth, division and survival. In particular, the importance of altered fatty acid metabolism in cancer has received renewed interest as, aside their principal role as structural components of the membrane matrix, they are important secondary messengers, and can also serve as fuel sources for energy production. In this review, we will examine the mechanisms through which cancer cells rewire their fatty acid metabolism with a focus on four main areas of research. (1) The role of de novo synthesis and exogenous uptake in the cellular pool of fatty acids. (2) The mechanisms through which molecular heterogeneity and oncogenic signal transduction pathways, such as PI3K–AKT–mTOR signalling, regulate fatty acid metabolism. (3) The role of fatty acids as essential mediators of cancer progression and metastasis, through remodelling of the tumour microenvironment. (4) Therapeutic strategies and considerations for successfully targeting fatty acid metabolism in cancer. Further research focusing on the complex interplay between oncogenic signalling and dysregulated fatty acid metabolism holds great promise to uncover novel metabolic vulnerabilities and improve the efficacy of targeted therapies.
