不少的癌症病人均會出現體重及BMI急速下降的情況，肌肉會出現萎縮，脂肪組織亦有機會有所消耗，這現象稱之為Cancer-associated cachexia(CAC)。737Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyZFdTuOMqQ

與厭食症不同的是，體重的流失並沒能依靠增加進食來進行完全填補。737Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0b9gcFsJGT

（圖2）CAC的形成，是腫瘤與身體多種器官互動後所得出的結果，箇中涉及新陳代謝及荷爾蒙的轉變。737Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUJuSiRQmTp

（圖3）從圖中所見，老鼠出現腫瘤約21日後，腿部肌肉出現萎縮，與人類的CAC現象吻合。737Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnmWanxbBzJ

PTHrP是一種某類型的腫瘤釋放到血管的蛋白質，而往老鼠注射PTHrP蛋白質抗體的話，肌肉的萎縮程度亦有所緩和。737Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvTtbPCX1Kj
737Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHW1EQWVzMj
只可是，往健康老鼠注射PTHrP蛋白質的話，肌肉並不會貿然萎縮，而往出現腫瘤的老鼠注射PTHrP蛋白質的話，肌肉萎縮的程度反會更加劇烈。737Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtnRH0lV2St

這亦證明，PTHrP蛋白質只是導致癌症時候肌肉萎縮的其中一道組件，還需要癌細胞另外的付出才可達成。737Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMCOkIPTN2B

癌症所帶來的CAC現象，會導致藥物對其他正常器官出現更強烈的副作用及毒性。這變相需要降低用藥的劑量作出配合，因而減低了滅癌的效率。737Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡA80dV6FI5v

因此，現今科學家亦在努力嘗試找出CAC的整套機制，務求找出有效的醫學方法制止CAC的產生。737Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVAueKkUmq5
