Phagocyte—extracellular matrix crosstalk empowers tumor development and dissemination

Abstract excerpt

Phagocytes, such as tumor-associated macrophages (TAMs) and tumor-associated neutrophils (TANs), are abundant in the stroma of experimental and human tumors and are locally educated to mediate important biological functions that profoundly affect tumor initiation, growth, and dissemination. Of considerable importance is the noncellular component of the tumor microenvironment, namely-the extracellular matrix...
