1 Mar 2007
Abstract excerpt

It is a syndrome that is characterized by extreme weight loss resulting mainly from the depletion of skeletal muscle. Research from the past decades investigating the mechanisms of tumor-induced muscle wasting has identified several key cachectic factors that act through the ubiquitin-dependent proteasome...
