A new approach that used CRISPR to engineer adipocytes and implant them in mice models of cancer reduced cancer progression.

Scientists at UC San Francisco have pioneered a groundbreaking approach to fighting cancer using engineered fat cells. By ...

Liposuction and plastic surgery aren't often mentioned in the same breath as cancer. But they are the inspiration for a new ...

In this study, these properties were leveraged to engineer adipocytes that can outcompete tumors for essential metabolic resources. In mouse cancer models, these adipocytes suppressed tumor growth ...

"Do the cancer cells move ballistically or diffusively? Can they move fast enough to deform the adipocytes? If we understand ...

The study was published Jan. 28 in the Journal of Investigative Dermatology. Previous research has shown that during fibrosis, fat cells in the skin called adipocytes are depleted. Why that happens ...

In a recent study, researchers demonstrated that Z526, a novel dithiocarbamate-like compound, mitigates cancer-associated cachexia (CAC) both in vitro and in vivo.
