The role of lipids in cancer during the genesis, progression and subsequent metastasis stages is increasingly discussed in the scientific literature. This information is discussed in a wide range of journals making it difficult for researchers to track the latest developments. A comprehensive assessment and translation of the lipidome of ovarian cancer, originating from literature, has yet to be made. We illustrate the deployment of semantic technologies; lipid ontology and text mining, in the aggregation and coordination of lipid literature. We provide the first report on the roles and types of lipids involved in ovarian cancer based on the mining of literature and identify key lipid-protein interactions that may point to potential drug discovery targets.
