Probing the Biology of Zinc Alpha2-Glycoprotein and the role it plays in cachexia

2022-12-16

Abstract excerpt

Cachexia is a metabolic disease that results in drastic weight loss and muscle wasting. 20% of total cancer patients will die due to cachexia related complications. ZAG contributes to the regulation of weight and body fat through lipid and glucose metabolism. In healthy individuals, ZAG exerts a homeostasis effect by inducing lipolysis of adipose tissue to help reduce fat storage and overall weight. ZAG is upregul...
