Acidic ascites inhibits ovarian cancer cell proliferation and correlates with the metabolomic, lipidomic and inflammatory phenotype of human patients

HIGHLIGHTS

SUMMARY

    High acetate levels can also be seen as an indicator of fatty_acid synthesis, as the authors saw a positive correlation between acetate and fatty_acids. In the omentum, fatty_acid synthesis, fatty_acid oxidation and subsequent ketogenesis are involved in the formation of ascites, thus altering the normal metabolism to a more carcinogenic phenotype. Carnitine plays hereby a critical role as those fatty_acids are transported as acyl-carnitine into the mitochondria, where fatty_acids are oxidized. Adipocytes facilitate the metastasis of OC cells by secreting adipokine (IL-6, IL-8, and MCP-1), and IL-8 is the . . .
