Tumor cells release EVs containing bioactive molecules such as hormones (adrenomedullin, PTHrP), pro-inflammatory cytokines (IL-6), and miRNAs (miR-1304-3p, miR-204-5p, miR-155, miR-425-3p, miR-146b-5p, miR-92a-3p), which can trigger lipolysis and induce the browning of white adipocytes contributing to a cancer cachexia phenotype. Here, IL6 is linked to cancer.
