Obesity promotes a more aggressive breast cancer phenotype. Through spatial and single-cell-based analysis of hormone receptor-negative breast cancers, we identify a subset of tumor-associated neutrophils (TANs) positive for granzyme B (GZMB) enriched in the tumor microenvironment of obese patients. In breast tumors evolved in obese environments, TANs are in proximity of M2 polarized macrophages containing lipopolysaccharides (LPS) from gram-negative bacteria. Pyroptosis of macrophages releases bacterial LPS, activating local GZMB+ TANs. This induces release of the S100 family member S100A8 that promotes tumor progression. In sum, we describe an obesity associated cellular network of cancer cells, neutrophils and M2 polarized macrophages that promotes tumor growth.

"Similar papers" are the closest papers from that journal in the model's embedding space. They show what the match is built on, but the ranking comes mostly from a classifier over the whole training set, not from these examples alone.
