Abstract excerpt
Pleural mesothelioma (PM) is a highly aggressive cancer with limited treatment efficacy and poor prognosis. Conventional two-dimensional (2D) culture models fail to replicate the tumour microenvironment (TME), limiting their translational relevance. Here, we establish a three-dimensional (3D) spheroid model to investigate chemotherapy resistance across different PM subtypes. Compared to 2D cultures, 3D spheroids...
