VEGF-A and Tenascin-C produced by S100A4 <sup>+</sup> stromal cells are important for metastatic colonization
12 Sept 2011
Abstract excerpt
Increased numbers of S100A4(+) cells are associated with poor prognosis in patients who have cancer. Although the metastatic capabilities of S100A4(+) cancer cells have been examined, the functional role of S100A4(+) stromal cells in metastasis is largely unknown. To study the contribution of S100A4(+) stromal cells in metastasis, we used transgenic mice that express viral thymidine kinase under control of the...
