Mechanical stress regulates tissue oxygenation, cancer cell proliferation and drug delivery during progression of solid tumors
(Springer Verlag, 2016)Oxygen supply plays a central role in cancer cell proliferation. While vascular density increases at the early stages of carcinogenesis, mechanical solid stresses developed during growth compress tumor blood vessels and, ...
