Does this diabetes guy have any relationship with cancer?
Of course, cancer cells depends largely on lipolysis instead of glycolysis, hence increased lipolysis in diabetes supports the development of cancer cells, this is where the two pathologies intersect.
Thanks for reading through.

Sorry for the big words, I just mean that cancer cells depends more on products of lipids breakdown such as ketone bodies and free fatty acids instead of products of carbohydrate breakdown such as α-ketoglutarate. So in diabetes, lipid metabolism is more pronounced, so cancer cells will develop more in this state of health. That's where the two conditions are related. That's just what I mean.
