Cancer-associated fibroblasts are positively correlated with metastatic potential of human gastric cancers
8 Jun 2010
Abstract excerpt
BACKGROUND: The prognosis of gastric cancer patients is difficult to predict because of defects in establishing the surgical-pathological features. Cancer-associated fibroblasts (CAFs) have been found to play prominent role in promoting tumor growth, invasion and metastasis. Thus raises the hypothesis that the extent of CAFs prevalence may help to establish the prognosis of gastric cancer patients. METHODS:...
