  1. Visualizing stromal cell dynamics in different tumor microenvironments by spinning disk confocal microscopy.
    Mikala Egeblad, Andrew J Ewald, ... Zena Werb

    Dis Model Mech 1(2):155-67; discussion 165 (2008) PMID 19048079

    We developed and applied multicolor imaging techniques to analyze the behavior of these cells within different tumor microenvironments in the same live mouse. We found that regulatory T-lymphocytes (Tregs) migrated in proximity to blood vessels. Dendritic-like cells, myeloid cells and carcinoma-asso...

    Fabio F Martinon

    Eur J Immunol 37(11):3003-6 (2007) PMID 17960661

    Innate immunity is a crucial part of the immune system, capable of mounting specific host responses against distinct pathogens. An integral component of the innate immune system is a network of pathogen recognition receptors, which are present at the surface of the cell or in the cytoplasm. Nucleoti...
  3. Tumors as Organs: Complex Tissues that Interface with the Entire Organism
    Mikala M Egeblad, Elizabeth S ES Nakasone, and Zena Z Werb

    Dev Cell 18(6):18 (2010) PMID 20627072 PMCID PMC2905377

    Solid tumors are not simply clones of cancer cells. Instead, they are abnormal organs composed of multiple cell types and extracellular matrix. Some aspects of tumor development resemble processes seen in developing organs, whereas others are more akin to tissue remodeling. Some micr...
