Lean adipocyte oxylipin signaling restrains breast cancer through ferroptosis
Obesity increases breast cancer risk and tumor aggressiveness, yet the mechanisms underlying this association remain unclear. In this work, we identify a tumor-suppressive lipid signaling pathway in which mammary adipocytes secrete the oxylipin 9S-...
