In the past years, we have learnt that tumors co-evolve with their microenvironment, and that
the active interaction between cancer cells and stromal cells plays a pivotal role in cancer …

Critical processes such as growth, invasion, and metastasis of cancer cells are sustained via
bidirectional cell-to-cell communication in tissue complex environments. Such …

The cell ecology and spatial niche implicated in the dynamic and sequential process of lung
adenocarcinoma (LUAD) from adenocarcinoma in situ (AIS) to minimally invasive …

Podocyte injury leading to albuminuria is a characteristic feature of diabetic nephropathy
(DN). Hyperglycemia and advanced glycation end products (AGEs) are major determinants …

One of the characteristics of cancer cells important for tumorigenesis is their metabolic
plasticity. Indeed, in various stress conditions, cancer cells can reshape their metabolic …

Intercellular communication among cancer cells and their microenvironment is crucial to
disease progression. The mechanisms by which communication occurs between distant …

The interaction between tumor cells and macrophages is crucial in promoting tumor invasion
and metastasis. In this study, we examined a novel mechanism of intercellular …

Triple negative breast cancer (TNBC) is one of the most aggressive subtypes of breast
cancer with the worst prognosis after chemo‐or radiation therapy. This is mainly due to the …

Tunneling nanotubes (TNTs) are intercellular conduits, which meet the communication
needs of non-adjacent cells situated in the same tissue but at distances up to a few hundred …

Direct cell-to-cell communication is crucial for the survival of cells in stressful situations such
as during or after radiation exposure. This communication can lead to non-targeted effects …
