What is Tumor Microenvironment and Its Impact on Cancer?
The tumor microenvironment consists of cancer cells, surrounding stromal cells, immune cells, and the extracellular matrix. It plays a crucial role in cancer development and progression. Interactions within this microenvironment can influence cancer cell behavior, angiogenesis, and the immune response. Targeting the microenvironment is a promising strategy in cancer therapy, aiming to disrupt these supportive interactions.
