Insulin Resistance Increases TNBC Aggressiveness and Brain Metastasis via Adipocyte-Derived Exosomes
6 Mar 2025
Abstract excerpt
Patients with triple-negative breast cancer (TNBC) and comorbid type 2 diabetes (T2D), characterized by insulin resistance of adipose tissue, have a higher risk of metastasis and shorter survival. Adipocytes are the main nonmalignant cells of the breast tumor microenvironment (TME). However, adipocyte metabolism is usually ignored in oncology, and the mechanisms that couple T2D to TNBC outcomes are poorly...
