Ovarian cancer stem cells and macrophages reciprocally interact through the WNT pathway to promote pro-tumoral and malignant phenotypes in 3D engineered microenvironments
BACKGROUND: Innate immune cells such as macrophages are abundantly present within malignant ascites, where they share the microenvironment with ovarian cancer stem cells (CSC). METHODS: To mimic this malignant ascites microenvironment, we created a hanging-drop hetero-spheroid model to bring CSCs an...
