New studies (Tang et al. 2024. J. Exp. Med.https://doi.org/10.1084/jem.20231395) describe a liver stress pathway that is activated by certain chemotherapeutic drugs, which in turn induces a peptide hormone which partially mediates the lower food intake and body weight loss during chemotherapy treatment.
