Cachexia is primarily caused by the complex interplay of pro-inflammatory cytokines, tumor-derived factors, and metabolic alterations. These factors lead to a systemic inflammatory response, muscle wasting, and increased energy expenditure, ultimately resulting in the depletion of fat and muscle mass seen in cachexia.
Stinging nettle trichomes are tiny hairs on the plant that contain irritating chemicals. When touched, these trichomes break and release the chemicals, causing a stinging sensation. This defense mechanism deters herbivores from eating the plant, protecting it from being consumed.
Phagocytosis by white blood cells, such as macrophages and neutrophils, is an example of the immune system's innate defense mechanism against disease-causing bacteria. These cells recognize and engulf the bacteria to prevent infection and promote immunity.
Urea in sweat can impact the body's cooling mechanism during physical activity by making sweat more concentrated, which can hinder the evaporation process. This can lead to less effective cooling of the body, potentially causing overheating and discomfort during exercise.
The animal that can shoot quills as a defense mechanism is the porcupine.

Cachexia means that a patient is losing weight without trying, and the lost weight cannot be replaced calorically. When this begins to appear in a patient, it is not a very good sign.
Cachexia is a debilitating disease usually associated with cancer, certain infectious diseases, and other autoimmune disorders. It is also called the wasting syndrome.
