Involvement of host stroma cells and tissue fibrosis in pancreatic tumor development in transgenic mice.
INTRODUCTION: Stroma cells and extracellular matrix (ECM) components provide the pivotal microenvironment for tumor development. The study aimed to evaluate the importance of the pancreatic stroma for tumor development. METHODS: Pancreatic tumor cells were implanted subcutaneously into green fluores...
