cancer patients. Preclinical studies have demonstrated that increased osteoclastic bone
resorption can impair muscle contractility and prime the bone microenvironment to
accelerate metastatic growth. We hypothesized that AI-induced bone loss could increase
breast cancer progression in bone and exacerbate muscle weakness associated with bone
metastases. Female athymic nude mice underwent ovariectomy (OVX) or sham surgery and …
