Trial watch: chemotherapy-induced immunogenic cell death in oncology

J Sprooten, RS Laureano, I Vanmeerbeek… - …, 2023 - Taylor & Francis
Immunogenic cell death (ICD) refers to an immunologically distinct process of regulated cell
death that activates, rather than suppresses, innate and adaptive immune responses. Such …

Phenotype molding of stromal cells in the lung tumor microenvironment

D Lambrechts, E Wauters, B Boeckx, S Aibar… - Nature medicine, 2018 - nature.com
Cancer cells are embedded in the tumor microenvironment (TME), a complex ecosystem of
