Cancer proteomics: from signaling networks to tumor markers.

abstract：:Intravital imaging enables to study dynamic tumour-stroma interactions within primary and metastatic sites, including the lung. The combination of optical windows with specific molecular probes targeting the tumour microenvironment will provide new insights into prometastatic stromal interactions and lead to novel the...
