Abstract:The interaction between cancer cells and stromal cells contributes to the pathogenesis of various types of tumors in the tumor microenvironment (TME). Macrophages (Mφs), a type of stromal cell, are transformed into tumor-associated Mφs (TAMs) after integrating within solid tumors. TAMs are known to interact with cancer cells and induce tumor progression. Thus, the cancer cells construct an organ-specific TME, which is advantageous for the survival of cancer cells in the TME. The density of stromal cells is kno… Show more
