It is demonstrated that uptake of radiolabeled acetate is a useful predictor of FASN-targeted therapy outcome, which suggests that [1-11C]acetate positron emission tomography (PET) could be a powerful tool to accomplish personalized FASn- targeted therapy by non-invasive visualization of tumor acetate uptake and selection of responsive tumors.

It is found that tumor cells expressed higher levels of cytosolic acetyl‐CoA synthetase (ACSS2) under hypoxia than normoxia, which indicates that ACSS2 is a bi‐directional enzyme in tumor cells and that AC SS2 might play a buffering role in tumor acetyl-CoA/acetate metabolism.

Endometrial carcinoma reduces estrogen dependency with accelerated glucose metabolism as it progresses to a higher stage or grade through a new index of the 18F-FDG–to–18F-FES ratio, which is considered the most informative index reflecting tumor aggressiveness.
