Gene expression of adipokines and adipokine receptors in the tumor microenvironment: associations of lower expression with more aggressive breast tumor features

Adana A. M. Llanos et al.

Summary: Limited epidemiologic data are available on the expression of adipokines leptin (LEP) and adiponectin (ADIPOQ) and adipokine receptors (LEPR, ADIPOR1, ADIPOR2) in the breast tumor microenvironment (TME). The associations of gene expression of these biomarkers with tumor clinicopathology are not well understood. Findings suggest that lower expression of ADIPOQ, ADIPOR2, LEP, and LEPR in the breast TME might be indicators of more aggressive breast cancer phenotypes.

Local Biomarkers Involved in the Interplay between Obesity and Breast Cancer

Jonas Busk Holm et al.

Summary: Breast cancer is the second most common cancer in women worldwide, with the risk influenced by factors such as age, heredity, reproductive factors, physical inactivity, and obesity. Obesity not only increases the risk of breast cancer but also worsens outcomes for patients.Awareness of the association between obesity and breast cancer is crucial due to the increasing global obesity rate.

Association of Body Mass Index, Central Obesity, and Body Composition With Mortality Among Black Breast Cancer Survivors

Elisa V. Bandera et al.

Summary: In this prospective population-based cohort study, central obesity and higher adiposity were associated with higher all-cause and breast cancer-specific mortality among Black breast cancer survivors. Simple measures of body fat distribution and body composition were found to be useful tools for identifying Black women with a higher risk of death after a breast cancer diagnosis.
