Deskripsi
Tumour microenvironment actively contributes to drug resistance in clinical oncology. Here, the authors show that genotoxic stress induces senescence in human stromal cells, which in turn secrete serine protease inhibitor Kazal type 1 (SPINK1) and promote acquired resistance of cancer cells via EGFR-mediated paracrine signaling.
