However, the molecular biological mechanism of NQO1 tumorigenicity in pancreatic adenocarcinoma (PAAD) has not been clearly understood. In this study, we demonstrate the molecular mechanism of NQO1 in PAAD proliferation, metastasis and fatty acid oxidation (FAO) . Multiple databases and western blot analysis show that NQO1 is overexpressed in PAAD and associated with lymph node metastasis and shorter survival. Furthermore, in vitro and in vivo experiments reveal that overexpression of NQO1 improves tumor growth, metastasis and FAO in PAAD. Mechanistically, NQO1 is able to bind to carnitine palmitoyltransferase 1A (CPT1A), a key enzyme controlling FAO. Therefore, Co-IP and a series of rescue experiments demonstrate that NQO1 promotes PAAD progression via CPT1A-mediated FAO. Our findings identify CPT1A-dependent FAO as an essential metabolic pathway for NQO1 to promote the PAAD process. Targeting the NQO1/CPT1A/ FAO axis in PAAD to attenuate proliferation and dissemination is a potential approach to promote a better antitumour effect and improve patient outcomes.  \nKey words NQO1, PAAD, metastasis, fatty acid oxidation, CPT1A  \nIntroduction  \nPancreatic adenocarcinoma (PAAD) is the third leading cause of cancer-related death, with a five-year survival rate of approximately 11% [1] . Although multiple therapeutic strategies, such as immunotherapy and targeted therapies, have been tried to improve the survival of PAAD patients, the effect is still limited [2,3] . This may be partly due to the complexity and heterogeneity of PAAD. Therefore, the exploration of a promising biomarker that regulates the biological dynamics and behavior of PAAD will contribute remarkably to optimizing treatment.  \nThe gene of NAD(P)H:quinone oxidoreductase-1 (NQO1), also known as DT diaphorase, is located on chromosome 16q22 and consists of six exons and five introns [4,5] . It uses NADH or NADPH as a substrate to catalyze the two-electron reduction of quinine to its hydroquinone form, directly blocking quinone to hydroquinone [6] . In addition, more reports have found that NQO1 is closely related to clinical significance and molecular mechanisms in different malignant tumors [7] . Jiang et al. [8] found that the expression of  \nNQO1 protein in gastric cancer tissue is higher than that in normal gastric tissue and is closely related to the patients’ tumor stage and age. Hirose et al. [9] found that the positive expression of NQO1 in colorectal and liver metastatic tumor cells may be an important factor for poor prognosis after hepatectomy. Yang et al. [10] revealed that the NQO1/PKLR axis promotes lymph node (LN) metastasis and breast cancer progression by regulating glycolytic reprogramming. Meanwhile, NQO1 could promote tumor formation by regulating the process of glucose metabolism [11] . Previous studies have revealed that the high expression of NQO1 is positively correlated with glucose metabolism and tumor progression. However, the relationship between NQO1 and the metabolic  \nmechanism of PAAD progression has not yet been reported.  \n","cbCaiiZqwyOkALPQ","https://ap.wps.com/l/cbCaiiZqwyOkALPQ","pdf",4229279,11,"English","# Abstract\n# Introduction\n# Materials and Methods","[{\"question\":\"Why is CPT1A important in the NQO1 mechanism?\",\"answer\":\"NQO1 binds to CPT1A, a key enzyme controlling FAO.
