What if one of cancer’s most devastating side effects could be reversed? Cancer cachexia is a debilitating wasting syndrome that affects many people with cancer, yet treatment options remain limited. Team CANCAN has published new research in @ScienceMagazine that highlights a previously underappreciated driver of cancer cachexia: localised signals from tumours acting directly on sensory neurons. This is a big step toward reframing cancer cachexia as not only a systemic metabolic condition, but also one shaped by tumour–nerve communication. 🎥 @ThalesPapaG, Co-Investigator on team CANCAN and team InteroCANCEption, explains the discovery and what it could mean for patients. Read the full paper: science.org/doi/10.1126/sc… --- Team CANCAN is funded by @CR_UK and @theNCI through Cancer Grand Challenges.
