Targeting Tumor Stroma: Current Challenges and Future Directions
Figure 1. Mechanism of ECM reprogramming. Cancer‐associated fibroblasts (CAFs), cancer‐associated macrophages (CAMs), and other mesenchymal cells alter the ECM composition and increase its stiffness by depositing matrix components such as collagen and hyaluronic acid, and secreting cross‐linking agents like lysyl oxidase homolog 2 (LOXL2).

Inhibition of TGFβ1 activation prevents radiation‐induced lung fibrosis
Background Radiotherapy is the main treatment modality for thoracic tumours, but it may induce pulmonary fibrosis. Currently, the pathogenesis of radiation‐induced pulmonary fibrosis (RIPF) is unclear, and effective treatments are lacking.

The Role of αvβ3 Integrin in Lamina Cribrosa Cell Mechanotransduction in Glaucoma
Purpose: Glaucoma, one of the leading causes of irreversible blindness, is a common progressive optic neuropathy characterised by visual field defects and structural changes to the optic nerve head (ONH).

L1CAM Promotes the Infiltrative Properties of Patient‐Derived Glioblastoma Cells
In vivo validation of L1CAM‐mediated GBM infiltration. Orthotopic transplantation of L1CAM‐expressing GBM cells into mouse brains demonstrated that L1CAM significantly promotes tumor cell infiltration and expansion in the brain parenchyma, confirming its critical role in the aggressive progression of GBM.

BACKGROUND: Glioblastoma multiforme (GBM), a highly invasive and vascular cancer, responds poorly to conventional cytotoxic therapy. Integrins, widely expressed in GBM and tumor vasculature, mediate cell survival, migration and angiogenesis.

Exploiting Integrin-αVβ3 to Enhance Radiotherapy Efficacy in Medulloblastoma via Ferroptosis
Medulloblastoma, a malignant pediatric brain tumor, has a poor prognosis upon relapse, highlighting a critical clinical need. Our previous research linked medulloblastoma cell radioresistance to integrin-αvβ3 expression.

Cilengitide Treatment for Malignant Glioma: Current Status and Future Direction
Malignant glioma is the most common primary brain tumor and accounts for the majority of diagnoses. Treatment has involved a combination of surgery, radiation, and chemotherapy, yet these modalities rarely extend the life of the patient to more than one year from diagnosis.

A phase I study of cediranib in combination with cilengitide in patients with recurrent glioblastoma [PDF]
Despite being a highly vascularized tumor, glioblastoma response to anti-vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) therapy is transient, possibly because of tumor co-option of preexisting blood vessels and infiltration into surrounding brain. Integrins, which are upregulated after VEGF inhibition, may play a critical role in this resistance mechanism ...

Polycarbonate nanogels enable lipid‐free delivery of anti‐MFAP‐5 siRNA into cancer‐associated fibroblasts (CAF) in hepatocellular carcinoma. In a cirrhotic murine model, this approach silences MFAP‐5, reduces fibroblast activation, and suppresses tumor growth by inhibiting NOTCH/Hes1‐driven angiogenesis. CAF‐targeted MFAP‐5 RNAi and conserved signaling
