The hallmark feature of metabolic reprogramming is now considered to be widespread in many malignancies, including colorectal cancer (CRC). Of the gastrointestinal tumors, CRC is one of the most common with a high metastasis rate and long insidious period. The incidence and mortality of CRC has increased in recent years. Metabolic reprogramming also has a significant role in the development and progression of CRC, especially lipid metabolic reprogramming. Many studies have reported that lipid metabolism reprogramming is similar to the Warburg effect with typical features affecting tumor biology including proliferation, migration, local invasion, apoptosis, and other biological behaviors of cancer cells. Therefore, studying the role of lipid metabolism in the occurrence and development of CRC will increase our understanding of its pathogenesis, invasion, metastasis, and other processes and provide new directions for the treatment of CRC. In this paper, we mainly describe the molecular mechanism of lipid metabolism reprogramming and its important role in the occurrence and development of CRC. In addition, to provide reference for subsequent research and clinical diagnosis and treatment we also review the treatments of CRC that target lipid metabolism.
