    A Revolutionary Approach to Cancer Treatment: Using Engineered Adipocytes to Starve Tumors

    A groundbreaking study carried out by the researchers of the University of California, San Francisco (UCSF) has unveiled a new way to combat cancer by reprogramming fat cells to outcompete tumors for essential nutrients. Researchers have developed a method called adipose manipulation transplantation (AMT), where engineered adipocytes—fat cells—are implanted near tumors to deprive them of…
