Abstract
Metabolic reprogramming of cancer cells and the tumour microenvironment are pivotal characteristics of cancers, and studying these processes offer insights and avenues for cancer diagnostics and therapeutics. Recent advancements have underscored the impact of host systemic features, termed macroenvironment, on facilitating cancer progression. During tumorigenesis, these inherent features of the host, such as germline genetics, immune profile and the metabolic status, influence how the body responds to cancer. In parallel, as cancer grows, it induces systemic effects beyond the primary tumour site and affects the macroenvironment, for example, through inflammation, the metabolic end-stage syndrome of cachexia, and metabolic dysregulation. Therefore, understanding the intricate metabolic interplay between the tumour and the host is a growing frontier in advancing cancer diagnosis and therapy. In this Review, we explore the specific contribution of the metabolic fitness of the host to cancer initiation, progression and response to therapy. We then delineate the complex metabolic crosstalk between the tumour, the microenvironment and the host, which promotes disease progression to metastasis and cachexia. The metabolic relationships among the host, cancer pathogenesis and the consequent responsive systemic manifestations during cancer progression provide new perspectives for mechanistic cancer therapy and improved management of patients with cancer.
