Adipocytes in tumour microenvironment promote chemoresistance in TNBC through oxysterols
2025-04-26
Abstract excerpt
<h4>Objective</h4> Triple-negative breast cancer (TNBC) patients with excess adipose tissue experience poorer disease-free survival than those with a healthy body mass index. Adipocytes, abundant in mammary tissue, store and release cholesterol, which can be hydroxylated to form oxysterols. These cholesterol derivatives activate the liver X receptor (LXR) pathway. This study tested the hypothesis that adipocytes...
