Résumé

Chemotherapy is a common therapy to treat breast cancer patients but also leads to skeletal muscle deconditioning. Skeletal muscle deconditioning is multifactorial and intermuscular adipose tissue (IMAT) accumulation is closely linked to muscle dysfunction. To date, there is no clinical study available investigating IMAT development through a longitudinal protocol and the underlying mechanisms remain unknown. Our study was dedicated to investigating IMAT content in early breast cancer patients treated with chemotherapy and exploring the subsequent cellular mechanisms involved in its development.
