Article Synopsis
- Macrophages in breast tissue during obesity cause chronic inflammation, increasing the risk of breast cancer.
- Researchers found that exposing breast epithelial cells to macrophage-conditioned medium gives them cancer-like traits through the oncogene IKKε and changes in the serine biosynthesis pathway.
- An FDA-approved drug, amlexanox, shows promise in delaying tumor formation in obesity-related breast cancer models, indicating a potential new strategy to mitigate breast cancer risk linked to obesity and inflammation.
