Omental Tissue-Mediated Tumorigenesis of Gastric Cancer Peritoneal Metastases

Omental Tissue-Mediated Tumorigenesis of Gastric Cancer Peritoneal Metastases

The peritoneal cavity, especially the omentum, is a common site for gastric cancer metastasis, representing advanced disease stage and poor prognosis. Here, we studied the effects of omental tissue on gastric cancer tumor progression in vitro and in vivo. Utilizing in vitro models, we found that ome...
