Skeletal muscle is a highly adaptable tissue capable of responding to stimuli. In the late-
stages of chronic disease such as kidney disease and cancer, a condition called cachexia …

Cachexia is a debilitating syndrome characterized by involuntary muscle wasting that is
triggered at the late stage of many cancers. While the multifactorial nature of this syndrome …

Cachexia, the metabolic dysregulation leading to sustained loss of muscle and adipose

Cachexia is a highly complex syndrome identified by metabolic, hormonal and cytokine-
related abnormalities, but can be shortly characterized as accelerated skeletal muscle and …

Background Cachexia, or weight loss despite adequate nutrition, significantly impairs quality
of life and response to therapy in cancer patients. In cancer patients, skeletal muscle …

Cachexia is a deadly muscle wasting syndrome that arises under conditions linked to
chronic inflammation, such as cancer. Cytokines, including interferon γ (IFNγ), tumor …

Cachexia is common in chronic inflammatory diseases and is attributed, in part, to an
elevation of circulating proinflammatory cytokines. TNF-α is the prototype in this category …
