Leptin induces muscle wasting in a zebrafish kras-driven hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) model
Cancer cachexia affects up to 80% of patients with advanced solid cancer and leads to excessive muscle wasting. Here, using an inducible zebrafish hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) model driven by oncogenic krasG12V, we observed a progressive muscle-wasting phenotype in adult zebrafish, characterized b...
