The obese adipose tissue microenvironment in cancer development and progression
Open accessAbstract
Obesity is associated with both increased cancer incidence and progression in multiple tumour types, and is estimated to contribute to up to 20% of cancer-related deaths. These associations are driven, in part, by metabolic and inflammatory changes in adipose tissue that disrupt physiological homeostasis both within local tissues and systemically. However, the mechanisms underlying the obesity-cancer relationship are poorly understood. In this Review, we describe how the adipose tissue microenvironment (ATME) evolves during body-weight gain, and how these changes might influence tumour initiation and progression. We focus on multiple facets of ATME physiology, including inflammation, vascularity and fibrosis, and discuss therapeutic interventions that have the potential to normalize the ATME, which might be translationally relevant for cancer prevention and therapy. Given that the prevalence of obesity is increasing on an international scale, translational research initiatives are urgently needed to provide mechanistic explanations for the obesity-cancer relationship, and how to best identify high-risk individuals without relying on crude measures, such as BMI.

The Abstract (page unavailable) reports that excess body fatness is associated with increased risk of 13 cancer types in adults, supporting the general risk claim. It does not identify those types or substantiate the sentence’s full list, particularly the distinction between thyroid cancer subtypes; searches for those subtypes and the listed cancer sites did not establish that detail.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
