Abstract
Epidemiological data have shown a positive correlation between lipid levels and tumor occurrence, such as the correlation between tumor frequency and aggressiveness, and cardiovascular disease, obesity, type 2 diabetes mellitus, and hyperinsulinemia. Therefore, reducing fat accumulation or weakening lipid metabolism may affect the carcinogenic processes of cells. Many studies have shown that traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM) has obvious advantages over traditional therapies in terms of fewer side effects, lower toxicity, and lower economic burden. This paper reviews the mechanism by which TCM regulates lipid metabolism and its antitumor effect through this regulation, with the aim of elucidating the bioactive compounds in TCM with good efficacy and few side effects that can provide promising therapeutic drugs for targeting lipid metabolism reprogramming in cancer.
