Endogenous Damage-Associated Molecular Pattern Molecules at the Crossroads of Inflammation and Cancer
Inflammatory mediators play important roles in the development and progression of cancer. Cellular stress, damage, inflammation, and necrotic cell death cause release of endogenous damage-associated molecular pattern (DAMP) molecules or alarmins, which alert the host of danger by triggering immune...
