摘要: 代谢重编程是肝细胞癌的关键特征,其中脂肪酸代谢异常与肿瘤免疫逃逸密切相关。本文系统介绍了肝细胞癌中脂肪酸代谢重编程的分子机制,重点阐述了从头脂肪合成和脂肪酸氧化通路的关键酶及其转录调控网络,分析了β-联蛋白突变型与AXIN1突变型肝细胞癌的代谢异质性及其治疗意义,归纳了脂质微环境调控免疫细胞功能的多维度机制,最后总结了针对不同肝细胞癌分子亚型的靶向治疗策略。Abstract: Metabolic reprogramming is a key characteristic of hepatocellular carcinoma, and abnormal fatty acid metabolism is closely associated with tumor immune escape. This article systematically reviews the molecular mechanisms of fatty acid metabolic reprogramming in hepatocellular carcinoma, focusing on key enzymes and their transcriptional regulatory networks within de novo lipogenesis and fatty acid oxidation pathways. This article also analyzes the metabolic heterogeneity between β-catenin-mutant hepatocellular carcinoma and AXIN1-mutant hepatocellular carcinoma and their therapeutic implications, summarizes the multidimensional mechanisms by which the lipid microenvironment regulates immune cell function, and reviews the targeted therapeutic strategies for different molecular subtypes of hepatocellular carcinoma.
