The tumor microenvironment (TME) impacts cancer progression and treatment outcomes. Understanding the TME is crucial for developing effective cancer therapies.
Area of Science:
- Oncology
- Cancer Biology
- Immunology
Background:
- The tumor microenvironment (TME) comprises cellular and non-cellular components that regulate tumor progression.
- The TME critically influences tumor growth, metastasis, and therapeutic responses.
- Key TME components include cancer cells, immune cells, fibroblasts, and the extracellular matrix.
