Hepatocyte growth factor activates tumor stromal fibroblasts to promote tumorigenesis in gastric cancer

Cancer-associated fibroblasts (CAFs), as the activated fibroblasts in tumor stroma, are important modifiers of tumor progression. However, the mechanisms underlying stromal fibroblast activation and their promotion of tumor growth remain largely unknown in gastric cancer. Here, we show that normal f...
