Reprogrammed Lipid Metabolism-Associated Therapeutic Vulnerabilities in Prostate Cancer.
Review in International journal of molecular sciences, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 9 papers.
What it found
Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.
The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.
The trial behind it
Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.
Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract
Prostate cancer (PCa), the second leading cause of cancer-related mortality among men in the United States, is marked by profound metabolic reprogramming, particularly in lipid metabolism. This review highlights the pivotal role of altered lipid metabolic pathways, including de novo fatty acid synthesis, fatty acid uptake and transport, β-oxidation, and cholesterol metabolism, in the development, progression, and therapeutic resistance of PCa. Key enzymes and transcription factors, such as FASN, ACLY, SREBPs, and FABPs, which are mainly regulated by androgen receptor signaling, orchestrate a lipogenic phenotype that supports prostate tumor growth and survival. Crosstalk between lipid metabolism and the tumor microenvironment further promotes immune evasion and metastasis. The review also explores therapeutic opportunities in targeting lipid metabolic pathways, highlighting the preclinical and clinical advances in inhibiting FASN, SREBP1, SREBP2, HMGCR, and FABPs, as well as combinatorial strategies with conventional therapies. Understanding the impact of lipid metabolism on PCa pathogenesis provides a promising avenue for developing novel targeted and combinatorial interventions to improve clinical outcomes in PCa.
