Role of tissue stroma in cancer cell invasion
O De Wever, M Mareel - The Journal of Pathology: A Journal of …, 2003 - Wiley Online Library
Maintenance of epithelial tissues needs the stroma. When the epithelium changes, the
stroma inevitably follows. In cancer, changes in the stroma drive invasion and metastasis …
