The Extracellular Matrix Regulates Cancer Progression and Therapy Response: Implications for Prognosis and Treatment
31 Mar 2009
Abstract excerpt
Emerging evidence points towards a key role of the extracellular matrix (ECM) during tumor progression and therapy resistance. Paradoxically, in today's routine of cancer management the ECM is not taken into account.
