Cancer Microenvironment and Cancer Vaccine [PDF]
Cancer Microenvironment, 2012 The cancer microenvironment is constituted of non-transformed host stromal cells such as endothelial cells, fibroblasts, various immune cells, and a complex extra-cellular matrix secreted by both the normal and neoplastic cells embedded in it. The importance of the microenvironment and its potential in cancer therapy is just being established.
