dc.description.abstractMelanoma is the most aggressive skin cancer characterized by a high metastatic potential and poor survival rate, leading to major morbidity/mortality. Overweight, obesity and diet composition have been identified as risk factors for many types of cancers. However, there are cancers where obesity is associated with favorable outcomes and this has been coined the “obesity paradox”. Preliminary data obtained by our research group disclosed paradoxical findings unveiling that obesity act as a two-edged sword in melanoma: potentiating primary tumor growth, and vascularity/angiogenesis, but at the same time decrease metastatic potential, thus preventing secondary tumor growth. In this exploratory research project, we propose to further explore and deepen the impact that fat-rich diets and obesity partake in melanoma etiologypt_PT
