FASN is active as a homodimer with seven different catalytic activities and produces lipids in the liver for export to metabolically active tissues or storage in adipose tissue. In most other human tissues, FASN is minimally expressed since they rely on circulating fatty acids for new structural lipid synthesis (1). According to the research literature, increased expression of FASN has emerged as a phenotype common to most human carcinomas. For example, in breast cancer, immunohistochemical staining showed that the levels of FASN are directly related to the size of breast tumors (2). Research studies also showed that FASN is highly expressed in lung and prostate cancers and that FASN expression is an indicator of poor prognosis in breast and prostate cancer (3-5). Furthermore, inhibition of FASN is selectively cytotoxic to human cancer cells (5). Thus, increased interest has focused on FASN as a potential target for the diagnosis and treatment of cancer as well as metabolic syndrome (6,7).\n\u003cb\u003eAlternate Names\u003c\/b\u003e\n[Acyl-carrier-protein] S-acetyltransferase; [Acyl-carrier-protein] S-malonyltransferase; 3-hydroxyacyl-[acyl-carrier-protein] dehydratase; 3-hydroxypalmitoyl-[acyl-carrier-protein] dehydratase; 3-oxoacyl-[acyl-carrier-protein] reductase; 3-oxoacyl-[acyl-carrier-protein] synthase; Acyl-[acyl-carrier-protein] hydrolase; Enoyl-[acyl-carrier-protein] reductase; FAS; FASN; Fatty acid synthase; MGC14367; MGC15706; OA-519; Oleoyl-[acyl-carrier-protein] hydrolase; SDR27X1; short chain dehydrogenase\/reductase family 27X, member 1; Type I fatty acid synthase\n\n\u003cb\u003eSpecification\u003c\/b\u003e\n\nREACTIVITY: H M R\nSENSITIVITY: Endogenous\nMW (kDa): 273\nSource\/Isotype: Rabbit IgG","brand":"CST","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":46800968581289,"sku":"3180S","price":0.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"url":"https:\/\/iright.com\/products\/cst-3180s","provider":"Iright","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
