Insulin Resistance Increases TNBC Aggressiveness and Brain Metastasis via Adipocyte-derived Exosomes.

IR adipocyte exosomes modify TME, increase EMT and promote metastasis to distant organs, likely through miRNA pathways. We suggest metabolic diseases such as T2D reshape the TME, promoting metastasis and decreasing survival. Therefore, TNBC patients with T2D should be closely monitored for metastasis, with metabolic medications considered.
