Muscle atrophy in cancer: a role for nutrition and exercise

Applied Physiology, Nutrition, and Metabolism = Physiologie Appliquée, Nutrition Et Métabolisme
Marina Mourtzakis, Megan Bedbrook

Abstract

Developing successful antineoplastic therapies has been a primary focus of cancer research, whereas less attention has been directed at body composition and metabolism in cancer patients. Here, we examine the metabolic implications of muscle atrophy in cancer as well as the potential factors that contribute to muscle atrophy, including energy imbalance, hormone perturbations, and inflammation. The role of nutrition and exercise interventions in maintaining muscle mass during the cancer trajectory is examined.

Cancer Metabolism

In order for cancer cells to maintain rapid, uncontrolled cell proliferation, they must acquire a source of energy. Cancer cells acquire metabolic energy from their surrounding environment and utilize the host cell nutrients to do so. Here is the latest research on cancer metabolism.
