“…46 These ketoneinduced gene signatures accurately predicted increased tumor recurrence, metastasis and poor clinical outcome in human breast cancer patients. 46 Similarly, genetic induction of ketone body production in cancer-associated fibroblasts (by expression of ATG16L1 or HMGCS2, or via silencing of the BRCA1 gene) promotes both tumor growth and/or metastasis. 27,32,47 Finally, genetic induction of mitochondrial biogenesis in cancer cells (by expression of PGC1-α/β; POLRMT; or MitoNEET) promotes tumorigenesis.…”
