It is often assumed that tumor rejection is mainly the result of cytotoxic T lymphocytes (CTLs) killing the tumor cells. However, recent studies have demonstrated that the rejection process is not as simple as this. In some models, tumors are rejected in the absence of lytic mechanisms (e.g. perfori
Collagenases are a family of metalloproteinases which may play a role in facilitating tumor cell invasion of the extracellular matrix. Tumor cells traverse two types of extracellular matrix: basement membranes and interstitial stroma, at multiple stages of the metastatic process. The matrix is a den
## Abstract The tumor microenvironment, composed of non‐cancer cells and their stroma, has become recognized as a major factor influencing the growth of cancer. The microenvironment has been implicated in the regulation of cell growth, determining metastatic potential and possibly determining locat
During the last 20 years it has become increasingly clear that the tumor micro-environment, the tumor stroma with its cellular end extracellular components, plays an crucial role in regulating tumor growth and progression. This book on “Tumor-associated fibroblasts and their matrix” as part of the s
