Cell network reveals how pancreatic cancer drives muscle and fat loss

Study identifies three cell clusters driving pancreatic cancer-induced cachexia

Research published today in Cell identifies three small subclusters of cells driving pancreatic cancer-induced cachexia, a muscle-wasting and fat-loss condition that makes patients less tolerant of cancer treatment.

Cell network reveals how pancreatic cancer drives muscle and fat loss

Research published today in Cell identifies three small subclusters of cells that drive pancreatic cancer-induced cachexia, a muscle-wasting and fat-loss condition that makes patients less able to tolerate cancer treatment. The study, led by the University of Oklahoma, could help researchers develop treatments targeting these subclusters.
