Tissue-engineered prostate tumours shed light on cancer spread

QUT-led research on the interaction between prostate cancer cells and the tumour microenvironment has shed more light on the propensity of some types of prostate cancer to metastasize to bone more readily than other types. Microenvironment surrounding primary prostate cancer tumour driver of growth and spread Study compared microenvironment influence […]
