Increasing evidence suggests that fatty acid synthase (FASN) is crucial in the carcinogenesis of various types of tumor. In addition, the phosphatidylinositol 3‑kinase (PI3K)/Akt signaling pathway, which is closely associated with cellular metabolism, affects cancer biology. However, whether the malignant phenotype of osteosarcoma (OS) cells is regulated by the PI3K/Akt/FASN signaling pathway a...
