Can We Stop Fat From Fueling Triple-Negative Breast Cancer?
Update: 2025-11-18
Description
Dr. Andrei Goga and his colleagues found that triple-negative breast cancer cells build molecular tunnels called gap junctions into nearby fat cells and use the fat cells’ energy for fuel. When the scientists blocked the gap junctions, the tumors stopped growing.
Listen to the episode to hear Dr. Goga explain:
- how the study came about
- how the cancer cells connect to the fat cells
- how the process could work in metastatic TNBC
- what the results could mean for treating triple negative disease.
