Neutrophil extracellular traps produced during inflammation awaken dormant cancer cells in mice
Waking up in a trap Cancer patients who have undergone successful treatment can experience relapse of their disease years or even decades later. This is because cancer cells tha...
Increased type IV collagen-degrading activity in metastases originating from primary tumors of the human colon.
The secretion of specific matrix metalloproteinases (MMPs) is considered a prerequisite step for tumor cell invasion and metastasis. In the present study we investigated the exp...
Angiostatin: A novel angiogenesis inhibitor that mediates the suppression of metastases by a lewis lung carcinoma
The phenomenon of inhibition of tumor growth by tumor mass has been repeatedly studied, but without elucidation of a satisfactory mechanism. In our animal model, a primary tumor...
Suppression of ICE and Apoptosis in Mammary Epithelial Cells by Extracellular Matrix
Apoptosis (programmed cell death) plays a major role in development and tissue regeneration. Basement membrane extracellular matrix (ECM), but not fibronectin or collagen, was s...
The Acidic Tumor Microenvironment as a Driver of Cancer
Acidic metabolic waste products accumulate in the tumor microenvironment because of high metabolic activity and insufficient perfusion. In tumors, the acidity of the interstitia...
