Outline of Final Research Achievements |
Most malignant tumor deaths are caused by metastasis with tissue invasion capacity of tumor cells. We previously developed a new mouse model for intestinal malignant tumors. In this study, we demonstrate that tumor progression in these model mice is regulated by tumor microenvironment. Our finding may open new horizons in research of tumor progression and treatment of malignant tumors.
