Macrophage-derived cathepsin L promotes epithelial-mesenchymal transition and M2 polarization in gastric cancer
In consideration of our findings, tumor-associated macrophage-derived CTSL is an important factor that promotes the metastasis and invasion of gastric cancer cells, and the targeting of CTSL may potentially improve the prognosis of patients with gastric cancer with peritoneal metastasis.
