GDNF family receptor alpha‐like antagonist antibody alleviates chemotherapy‐induced cachexia in melanoma‐bearing mice

open access: yesJournal of Cachexia, Sarcopenia and Muscle, 2023
Patients with cancer undergoing chemotherapy experience cachexia with anorexia, body weight loss, and the depletion of skeletal muscles and adipose tissues. Effective treatment strategies for chemotherapy‐induced cachexia are scarce.

Development and validation of a clinically applicable score to classify cachexia stages in advanced cancer patients

open access: yesJournal of Cachexia, Sarcopenia and Muscle, 2018
Background Cachexia is a multifactorial syndrome that is highly prevalent in advanced cancer patients and leads to progressive functional impairments. The classification of cachexia stages is essential for diagnosing and treating cachexia. However, there

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 ...

Activation of GPR81 by lactate drives tumour-induced cachexia

open access: yesNature Metabolism
Cachexia affects 50–80% of patients with cancer and accounts for 20% of cancer-related death, but the underlying mechanism driving cachexia remains elusive.

Storage Conditions and Passages Alter IL-6 Secretion in C26 Adenocarcinoma Cell Lines [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
The C26 adenocarcinoma tumor line is frequently used to establish peripheral tumors in mice for the study of cancer cachexia and cancer-related fatigue. Recently, we have noticed a progressive decline in the effects of tumor growth on our biological and ...

The canonical ER stress IRE1α/XBP1 pathway mediates skeletal muscle wasting during pancreatic cancer cachexia

open access: yesEMBO Molecular Medicine
Cancer cachexia is a debilitating syndrome characterized by the progressive loss of skeletal muscle mass with or without fat loss. Recent studies have implicated dysregulation of the endoplasmic reticulum (ER) stress-induced unfolded protein response ...
