Stiff Tumors Communicate With Immune Cells Through Mechanical Forces

Original: Stiff Tumors Talk to Immune Cells: How Mechanical Forces Shape Cancer and Immunity

New coverage highlights research on how the physical stiffness of tumors acts as a signal that influences immune cell behavior. Mechanical forces in tumor tissue appear to shape how cancer progresses and how the immune system responds, suggesting mechanics could matter as much as biochemistry in cancer and immunotherapy research.

Why now: Growing scientific interest in how the mechanical properties of tumors affect cancer progression and immune response
