Abstract:
Lipid metabolism plays a key role in tumorigenesis and progression and has a significant impact on the efficacy of radiotherapy. This article reviews the current research progress in the role of lipid metabolism in tumor radiotherapy, focusing on the central role of lipid metabolism in tumorigenesis, progression and metastasis, and how radiotherapy affects and regulates lipid metabolism. In addition, this article also investigates the intrinsic link between lipid metabolism and tumor radiosensitivity, and reviews how lipid metabolism can be used as a therapeutic strategy to improve the efficacy of radiotherapy. In-depth study of the role of lipid metabolism in tumor radiotherapy may offer assistance for clinical trials and mechanistic studies of tumor radiotherapy based on the modulation of lipid metabolism.
