Periprostatic adipocytes act as a driving force for prostate cancer progression in obesity
Obesity is associated with an elevated risk of prostate cancer. Here, the authors show that periprostatic adipose tissue promotes the migration and local invasion of prostate cancer cells by secreting the chemokine, CCL7, and that this process is enhanced in the context of obesity.
