Relying on the technology platform of the tumor microenvironment center, Alfa Oncology provides a full range of imaging services for innervation ecotone in the tumor microenvironment (TME) to help researchers successfully achieve their research goals.

Introduction

Nerves are also an important component of the tumor microenvironment (TME) and a major driver of tumor formation. The nerves that wrap around the blood vessels enter the tumor along with the new tumor vessels and provide oxygen and nutrients through the vessels, and the tumor cells also saecrete molecules that promote the formation of peripheral nerve axons that coil around the tumor. They initiate tumorigenesis by regulating stem cells, driving angiogenesis, modulating the immune system and influencing the microbiota. Peripheral nerves are important "accomplices" in tumor growth, and they release molecular signals that promote tumorigenesis and growth. Controlling nerve fibers and nerve signals will be a new strategy for tumor treatment.
