ABSTRACT
Contrary to being an idle bystander,the surrounding tumor microenvironment or stroma,actively participates in,and contributes to tumor progression directly or indirectly.It is evident that tumor stromal cells exhibit specific tumor-suppressive and tumor-promoting abilities that serve to regulate neoplastic growth of the epithelium.Due to the mounting evidence demonstrating the far-reaching effects of stroma during the process of malignant transformation,the involvement of stroma in cancer progression has become an area of intense investigations in recent years.
