Cancer cells ‘feed’ on extracellular matrix components under starvation conditions: how can they do it?

University of Sheffield School of Biosciences

Background. The tumour microenvironment (TME) has a key role in promoting tumour formation and progression. In breast and pancreatic cancers, this accompanied by the accumulation of extracellular matrix (ECM) in the TME. Read more
