Outline of Final Research Achievements |
Obesity increases the risk of developing cancer. The number of obese people is increasing worldwide, and obesity-related cancers are also on increase.However, the mechanisms by which obesity is involved in cancer development and progression remain poorly understood.We show that a high-fat diet promotes tumour initiation and progression and induces a phenotypic switch from PD-1- CD8+ non-exhausted T cells to PD-1+ CD8+ exhausted T cells in a murine breast cancer model. Our results are expected to lead to the prevention of obesity-related cancers and the development of treatments.
