Description
Katelyn Del Toro and five co-authors find a fresh driver of breast tumor growth in a 2024 study. Breast cancer care stays hard in part since the tumor's home turf is poorly grasped. Cells that hug blood vessels shape that turf: they firm vessel walls and talk to their linings, yet they have been largely missed.
Such cells are scarce, mixed in kind, and share marks with other cells, which has blocked clean study. The team found a way to pull them pure and grow them in the lab. Grown cells drove tumor cells to split faster, a fresh lead for care.
