A study using fluorescence technique to show the preferential migration of ovarian cancer cells to the mouse omentum revealed that cancer cell migratory behavior can be mediated by adipokines secreted by omentum-associated adipocytes, including chemokine C-C motif ligand 2 (CCL2), IL-6, IL-8, tissue inhibitor of metalloproteinase 1 (TIMP1), and adiponectin (Nieman et al., 2011). Here, IL6 is linked to ovarian cancer.
