Cancer-Associated Fibroblasts (CAFs) Cancer-associated fibroblasts, or CAFs, are a type of stromal cell commonly found in the tumor microenvironment. They are associated with all stages of cancer and contribute to its progression in various ways. CAFs can increase the rate of cancer cell growth, promote the formation of new blood vessels, and facilitate the spread of cancer cells to other parts of the body.In addition to these effects, CAFs can also suppress the immune system's ability to fight ...

Exosomes are the smallest and most characteristic of extracellular vesicles and contain a variety of biological information, including proteins, lipids, DNA, mRNA, and microRNA. These biomolecules are involved in regulating various life activities such as signal transduction, proliferation, migration, and angiogenesis among tumor cells. Exosomes are not only a new biological marker assay, but also provide potential molecular therapeutic targets and are expected to be a carrier for anti-brain tum...

Neoantigen is a kind of tumor-specific antigen derived from non-synonymous mutations, which plays an important role in the killing of tumor by immune cells, and effective anti-tumor immunity is directly related to tumor neoantigen-specific T cells. Neoantigens are highly immunogenic and specific, not expressed in normal tissues, and bypass the central thymus without immune tolerance, making them ideal targets for anti-tumor immunotherapy. With the development of next-generation sequencing techno...

Introduction of TME biomarker detection servicesTumor markers appear along with tumors and are usually increased in amounts of proteins, oncogenes, tumor suppressor genes and their related products in the form of antigens, enzymes, receptors, hormones or metabolites. It is produced and secreted by tumor cells, or is part of the released tumor cell structure. It exists only in tumor cells and is often released into serum or other body fluids, which can reflect the presence of tumors in the body t...
