Linkage of CD8+ T cell exhaustion with high-fat diet-induced tumourigenesis

Abstract Obesity increases the risk of cancer. Increased levels of hormones (such as oestrogen, insulin, insulin-like growth factor, and leptin), free fatty acid-induced production of reactive oxygen species, an altered intestinal microbiome and chronic inflammation are known to be associated with a...
