Unraveling tumor cell heterogeneity and epithelial-mesenchymal plasticity in gastric adenocarcinoma: an integrative multi-omics framework evaluating PVR/CD155 as a tumor cell-intrinsic EMT-associated target
Background The tumor microenvironment (TME) of gastric adenocarcinoma is exceptionally heterogeneous, and epithelial-mesenchymal transition (EMT) is a central mechanism promoting local invasion and metastatic spread. Even so, how EMT-programmed cells are spatially arranged within tumor tissue, how they interact with ne...
