Abstract Multiple studies have identified metabolic changes within the tumor and its microenvironment during carcinogenesis. Yet, mechanisms by which tumors affect host metabolism are unclear. We find that systemic inflammation induced cancer leads to liver infiltration of myeloid cells at early extrahepatic The infiltrating immune via IL6–pSTAT3 immune–hepatocyte cross-talk cause depletion a master regulator, HNF4α, consequently leading promote breast pancreatic proliferation worse outcome....

Abstract Cancer-associated cachexia (CAC) is a wasting syndrome present in 80% of advanced cancer patients. CAC decreases the quality life, causes higher mortality, and resistance to treatments with increased toxicity. currently incurable directly responsible for up 30% all deaths. We find that cancer-induced systemic inflammation disrupts vagal tone via infiltration innate immune cells into brain, involving dorsal motor nucleus hindbrain. This disruption leads CCL2-driven hyperactivation...
