Anorexia, body wasting, inflammation, muscle, and adipose tissue loss are hallmarks of cancer cachexia, a syndrome that affects the majority of cancer patients, impairing their ability to endure chemotherapeutic therapies and reducing their lifespan. In the last 10 years, alterations of protein turnover and impairment of adult myogenesis have been proposed as major contributing factors.
