Nearly half of all cancer patients suffer from excessive weight loss due to the loss of adipose and skeletal muscle tissues, or cachexia. This progressive illness not only impairs the quality of life for cancer patients but also poses a severe threat to treatment since it obstructs the use of effective medicines, especially in advanced stages. Current research yet fails to offer an effective therapy to slow down or block this wasting because the driving forces behind the atrophy process remain incompletely understood.
