Hepatic gluconeogenesis and PDK3 upregulation drive cancer cachexia in flies and mice
16 Apr 2025
Abstract excerpt
Cachexia, a severe wasting syndrome characterized by tumour-induced metabolic dysregulation, is a leading cause of death in people with cancer, yet its underlying mechanisms remain poorly understood. Here we show that a longitudinal full-body single-nuclei-resolution transcriptome analysis in a Drosophila model of cancer cachexia captures interorgan dysregulations. Our study reveals that the tumour-secreted...
