Potential role of immunological factors in early diagnosis of cancer cachexia in C26 tumor-bearing mice

open access: yesApplied Biological Chemistry, 2019
Cachexia is a wasting syndrome associated with high mortality in cancer patients through inducing the failure of normal metabolism and reducing the efficacy of cancer treatment. Thus, it is critically important to diagnose cancer cachexia early.

Targeting cancer cachexia: Molecular mechanisms and clinical study

open access: yesMedComm, 2022
Cancer cachexia is a complex systemic catabolism syndrome characterized by muscle wasting. It affects multiple distant organs and their crosstalk with cancer constitute cancer cachexia environment. During the occurrence and progression of cancer cachexia,

Impact of cancer cachexia on the therapeutic outcome of combined chemoimmunotherapy in patients with non-small cell lung cancer: a retrospective study

open access: yesOncoImmunology, 2021
Although previous studies suggest that cancer cachexia is a poor prognostic factor for immune checkpoint inhibitor monotherapy, the impact of cancer cachexia on chemoimmunotherapy is unclear.

Behavioural changes are a major contributing factor in the reduction of sarcopenia in calorie-restricted ageing mice [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
Background: In rodent models, caloric restriction (CR) with maintenance of adequate micronutrient supply has been reported to increase lifespan and to reduce age-induced muscle loss (sarcopenia) during ageing.

Associations of low hand grip strength with 1 year mortality of cancer cachexia: a multicentre observational study

open access: yesJournal of Cachexia, Sarcopenia and Muscle, 2021
Backgrounds Hand grip strength (HGS) is one of diagnose criteria factors of sarcopenia and is associated with the survival of patients with cancer. However, few studies have addressed the association of HGS and 1 year mortality of patients with cancer ...
