Protein modification partially reverses cancer-related muscle wasting in preclinical study
Cachexia is one of the most severe forms of muscle wasting in humans. It affects up to 80% of cancer patients and is caused by cancer cytokines—pro-inflammatory signaling molecules—that are released by the tumor cells themselves. Depending on the type of cancer, cancer-induced cachexia (CIC) is resp
