Abstract
Factors of metabolic syndrome including hyperinsulinemia and obesity are well known to increase the risk of cancer incidence and progression. In a recent iScience article, Ramos et al. demonstrate a novel tumor-suppressor role of the circadian transcription factor BMAL1 in triple-negative breast cancer (TNBC) specifically under conditions of hyperinsulinemia.Entities:
