Insights Into <scp>circRNA</scp> ‐Mediated Lipid Metabolism in Cancer Progression

Lipid metabolism reprogramming is one of the most prominent characteristics of cancer, but it is still unclear which regulatory pathways underlie this process in cancer cells. Circular RNAs (circRNAs) represent a novel category of non-coding RNAs with multifaceted regulatory functions. While the biological roles of circRNAs in cancer have been elucidated, there remains a dearth of knowledge regarding their involvement and regulatory mechanisms in lipid metabolism within the context of cancer. This article provides an overview of the regulatory roles and specific mechanisms of circRNAs in cancer lipid metabolism reprogramming. By elucidating these mechanisms, it enhances our comprehension of the metabolic rewiring driving tumour development and uncovers new avenues for targeted therapy.
