Abstract:
:Overexpression of acyl-coenzyme A:cholesterol acyltransferase (ACAT) results in increased cholesteryl ester levels and has been involved in a variety of cancer types. As a consequence, cholesterol metabolism has raised interest as a potential target for cancer treatment. Inhibition of ACAT results in suppression of proliferation in a range of cancer cell types both in vitro and in vivo. The exact mechanism of this phenomenon is being investigated, and the most important findings are presented in this review.
