The cancer microenvironment, or tumour microenvironment, describes the non-cancerous cells present in the tumour. These include fibroblasts, immune cells and cells that comprise the blood vessels.

Research led by the Chiba Cancer Center Research Institute in Japan has discovered a surprising way cancer evades the immune ...

通过线粒体转移，癌细胞不仅实现了对T细胞功能的精确抑制，还为其免疫逃逸增加了一道屏障。该研究进一步指出，这种机制与免疫治疗效果不佳密切相关，尤其是在携带大量mtDNA突变的患者中，免疫检查点抑制剂的疗效显著降低。

The tissue adjacent to a tumor behaves differently than areas farther away. The tumor's cancerous cells influence their ...

A recent study uncovers how drug-resistant cancer cells induce changes in the tumor microenvironment. This phenomenon promotes cancer recurrence and explains why initially effective targeted therapies ...

The tissue adjacent to a tumor behaves differently than areas farther away: The tumor's cancerous cells influence their surroundings, blocking the body's immune defenses and creating a sort of haven ...

Immunotherapy, cancer treatments that alter the immune system, making it better apt to fight tumor cells, have provided novel ...

Current immunotherapies targeting cholangiocarcinoma have predominantly focused on T lymphocytes within the tumor microenvironment, and new immunotherapies have yielded unsatisfactory results in ...

16 in Nature Biotechnology ... Traditional therapies target one molecule in the tumor microenvironment, but the microenvironment is so complex, targeting one thing doesn't always work.
