Linoleic acid metabolic reprogramming is linked to immunometabolic remodeling and post-transplant recurrence risk in hepatocellular carcinoma
Multi-omics analyses indicate that, in primary pre-transplant HCC, post-transplant recurrence is associated with an imbalance between a higher estimated Δ6-desaturation index and attenuated oxidative catabolism-related features of linoleic acid, accompanied by Treg-associated immunosuppressive remodeling.
