Summary A study of lipogenesis in neoplastic tissues has shown that acetate and glucose carbon can be utilized for synthesis of the fatty acid chain. However, the data indicate that this process is probably too slow to supply the lipid needs of a rapidly growing tumor, and the tumor must therefore obtain its lipids preformed from the host.
