Tumor progression is a relatively indolent process, with many years commonly intervening between the inception of an initiating genetic lesion and the development of overt malignant disease. We suggest that the perturbation of normal epithelial-mesenchymal interactions caused by the inappropriate presence of fibroblast subpopulations displaying various 'fetal-like' phenotypic characteristics may significantly...
