The Mesothelial Origin of Carcinoma Associated-Fibroblasts in Peritoneal Metastasis
Solid tumors are complex and unstructured organs that, in addition to cancer cells, also contain other cell types. Carcinoma-associated fibroblasts (CAFs) represent an important population in the tumor microenviroment and participate in several stages of tumor progression, including cancer cell migr...
