Tumor Microenvironment: Extracellular Matrix Alterations Influence Tumor Progression
The tumor microenvironment (TME) is composed of various cell types embedded in an altered extracellular matrix (ECM). ECM not only serves as a support for tumor cell but also regulates cell–cell or cell–matrix cross-talks.

Roles of tumor-associated macrophages in tumor progression: implications on therapeutic strategies
Macrophages are heterogeneous cells that present as different functional phenotypes due to their plasticity. They can be classified into two categories, namely M1- and M2-like macrophages, which are involved in processes as diverse as anti-tumor activity

The Role of MSCs in the Tumor Microenvironment and Tumor Progression [PDF]
Over the past few decades, longevity without disease has become an important topic worldwide. However, as life expectancy increases, the number of patients with cancer is also increasing. Tumor progression is related to interactions between tumor cells and mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) in the tumor microenvironment.

ABSTRACT Rates of cancer among adolescents and young adults (AYA), age 15–39 years, are increasing. Consequently, radiation oncologists are treating more AYAs who have diagnoses spanning both pediatric and adult practices. Compared to pediatric and older adult patients, AYAs face a unique set of challenges.

Gelsolin induces colorectal tumor cell invasion via modulation of the urokinase-type plasminogen activator cascade [PDF]
Gelsolin is a cytoskeletal protein which participates in actin filament dynamics and promotes cell motility and plasticity. Although initially regarded as a tumor suppressor, gelsolin expression in certain tumors correlates with poor prognosis and ...

ABSTRACT Background Allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (alloHSCT) is an essential therapy for several malignant and nonmalignant diseases, but relapse and graft loss remain the principal threats to its success. Routine monitoring of chimerism and minimal residual disease (MRD) enables early detection of imminent recurrence and guides ...

mLST8 Promotes mTOR-Mediated Tumor Progression. [PDF]
The activity of the mechanistic target of rapamycin (mTOR) is elevated in various types of human cancers, implicating a role in tumor progression. However, the molecular mechanisms underlying mTOR upregulation remain unclear. In this study, we found that

OverAKT3: tumor progression and chemoresistance [PDF]
Akt3 is one of 3 closely related serine/threonine-protein kinases in the Akt family (Akt1, Akt2, and Akt3). Akt is among the most hyperactivated oncogenes in human cancer, regulating key cellular functions such as growth, proliferation, migration, invasion, angiogenesis, metabolism, and survival.1,2 Studies evaluating the effect of Akt isoform gene ...
