Modeling the energetic cost of cancer as a result of altered energy metabolism: implications for cachexia
BACKGROUND: Cachexia affects most patients with incurable cancer. We hypothesize that in metastatic cancer the mass of the tumor as well as its level of anaerobic energy metabolism play a critical role in describing its energetic cost, which results in elevated resting energy expenditure and glucose...
