Secretomes of Cancer-Associated Myofibroblasts and Normal Tissue Myofibroblasts in hypoxia and normoxia C4PR_LIV

Cancer-associated fibroblasts are a major component of the cancer stroma. Here we focus on gastric cancer associated myofibroblasts (CAMs). CAMs secrete factors that increase the migration, invasion and proliferation of cancer cells when compared to adjacent tissue myofibroblasts (ATMs), or normal tissue myofibroblasts (NTMs). In this study we identified and quantified the proteins secreted by normoxic (21% O2) and hypoxic (1% O2) myofibroblast cells.
