Metastatic tumours facilitated by hypoxic tumour micro-environments (METOXIA)

Date du début: 1 févr. 2009, Date de fin: 31 juil. 2014,

"Recent research suggests that the hypoxic micro-environment of tumours is one of the major drivers of metastatic spread of cancer. Furthermore, hypoxic tumour micro-environments may result in treatment resistance of cancer cells, therefore causing a double effect of reducing the potential of a successful treatment of the cancer patient. This project seeks to clarify the roles and functions of the ...
