IL-17 signaling pathway in SPP1+ macrophages drives digestive tract cancer progression
Digestive tract cancers (DTCs) are cancers that occur in the gastrointestinal tract and related organs, including esophageal, gastric, and colorectal cancer. Since these types of cancer share similar endoderm developmental origins, the genomic and other molecular features can possess many similarities. Therefore, it is urgent to explore the commonalities of molecular characteristics and signaling pathways in the tumor microenvironment among these diseases.
