.... That is a multifactorial disease initiated by intrinsic or extrinsic factors that induce cell differentiation into cancer cells. However, cancer development, progression, and metastasis are not controlled only by cancer cells. The entire environment around these cells, named tumor microenvironment (TME), influences tumor...

... microenvironments between hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) and fetal tissues and described this phenomenon as an oncofetal ecosystem. This ecosystem includes fetal-like immune (macrophage) and stromal (endothelial) cells within the tumor microenvironment (TME). This discovery highlights reciprocal interactions...

... bioactive cargo, including proteins, metabolites, RNA transcripts, microRNAs, and DNA that can be transferred to other cancer cells and stimulate their growth, survival, and migration. However, cancer cell-derived EVs also play important roles in helping re-shape the tumor microenvironment to support tumor...
