Adipocytes are dispensable in shaping the ovarian cancer tumor microenvironment in the omentum
2025-10-29
Abstract excerpt
The omentum, a specialized adipose tissue within the peritoneum, is a primary niche for ovarian cancer (OC) dissemination during peritoneal carcinomatosis. Traditionally, omental adipocytes are thought to promote OC growth by supplying lipids, supported by evidence that global FABP4 deficiency reduces tumor progression. Here, we generated mice lacking mature adipocytes in the peritoneum, including the omentum. ID8...
