ZOOM CA, United StatesTITLE: "Exercise and tumor genomic landscapes in 2,702 patients with cancer" ABSTRACT: Approximately two-thirds of cancer diagnoses globally are attributed to modifiable lifestyle factors such as smoking, diet and inactivity. Conversely, regular exercise is linked to decreased risk of multiple cancers. However, the underlying molecular mechanisms are not fully elucidated. Specifically, how exercise impacts tumor genomic […]
