Study finds obesity biomarkers for endometrial cancer

RIYADH: A recent study by the University Obesity Research Center, in collaboration with the Department of Obstetrics and Gynecology at King Saud University’s College of Medicine, has highlighted the link between obesity and the risk of developing endometrial cancer. Researchers identified fundamental differences in the protein composition of endometrial cancer in obese versus non-obese patients, highlighting molecular mechanisms that may explain obesity’s impact on tumor behavior and progression.
