Preprint alert! Excited to share our new manuscript from @CornellBME @GarrettBeeghly examining how the size of fat cells, or adipocytes, impacts breast cancer risk. We found that larger adipocytes promote aggressive behavior in tumor cells. 1/5 biorxiv.org/content/10.110…

As an undergraduate researcher, Yiwei Yan ’25 studied how breast cancer cell growth is regulated in bone by investigating how bone mineral content and tumor-secreted factors influence the growth of mesenchymal stem cells.

In a published cohort of mastectomy patients, we found that average adipocyte size predicted dyslipidemia and circulating triglycerides more than BMI. These results suggest that altered lipid release by larger adipocytes may also have implications for whole body metabolism. 4/5

Ultimately, our findings suggest that larger adipocytes are a distinct cell population within adipose tissue and increase lipid transfer to invading cancer cells. As a result, we propose that adipocyte size could be a valuable prognostic biomarker for breast cancer patients. 5/5

Scaffold design and choice of animal model drastically affect tissue formation and cellular complexity impressively shown in our new @Biomaterials_ paper by @Matt_AWhit and @mantri_madhav with @IwijnDeVlaminck @CornellBME

Feeling extremely grateful to have completed my PhD with so much support from @CornellBME, @FischbachLab, and my fantastic advisor. I can't imagine the past six years anywhere else. Excited to see what is next! #PhDone
Congratulations @GarrettBeeghly on a fantastic defense and significantly advancing our understanding of adipocytes and their role in cancer! Well done Dr. B! @CornellBME @FischbachLab
