Targeting the tumor microenvironment.
Despite some notable successes cancer remains, for the most part, a seemingly intractable problem. There is, however, a growing appreciation that targeting the tumor epithelium in isolation is not sufficient as there is an intricate mutually sustaining synergy between the tumor epithelial cells and their surrounding stroma. As the details of this dialogue emerge, new therapeutic targets have be...
متن کاملTargeting the tumor microenvironment
Persistent JAK-STAT3 signaling is implicated in many aspects of tumorigenesis. Apart from its tumor-intrinsic effects, STAT3 also exerts tumor-extrinsic effects, supporting tumor survival and metastasis. These involve the regulation of paracrine cytokine signaling, alterations in metastatic sites rendering these permissive for the growth of cancer cells and subversion of host immune responses t...
متن کاملMacrophages and the tumor microenvironment
Macrophages and the tumor microenvironment Tumor tissue comprises a highly complex network of diverse cell types. In a simplified view, the tumor microenvironment can be subdivided into the cancer cell and the stromal cell compartments, the latter of which harbors many different cell types. A considerable number of innate immune cells reside within the tumor microenvironment, including macropha...
متن کاملTumor-Associated Macrophages as Major Players in the Tumor Microenvironment
During tumor progression, circulating monocytes and macrophages are actively recruited into tumors where they alter the tumor microenvironment to accelerate tumor progression. Macrophages shift their functional phenotypes in response to various microenvironmental signals generated from tumor and stromal cells. Based on their function, macrophages are divided broadly into two categories: classic...
متن کاملTargeting the Tumor Microenvironment: Focus on Angiogenesis
Tumorigenesis is a complex multistep process involving not only genetic and epigenetic changes in the tumor cell but also selective supportive conditions of the deregulated tumor microenvironment. One key compartment of the microenvironment is the vascular niche. The role of angiogenesis in solid tumors but also in hematologic malignancies is now well established. Research on angiogenesis in ge...
