Turns out the liver is an even more important contributor to #cachexia #wasting than previously thought. Check out this latest paper from our institute Helmholtz Munich | @HelmholtzMunich

A great study out in Cell and glad to be part. It shows that specific liver‑secreted factors LBP, ITIH3 and IGFBP1 drive muscle wasting and systemic metabolic disruption in cancer cachexia, revealing potential therapeutic targets.
