摘要: Migration Stimulating Factor (MSF) is an oncofetal regulatory molecule, constitutively expressed by various cell types during fetal development, generally not their counterparts in healthy adult tissues, but re-expressed cancer progression. The diverse bioactivities of MSF, including its potent stimulation migration/invasion, matrix remodelling and angiogenesis, suggest that it makes a significant contribution to driving tumour In this review, we discuss the role MSF within general perspective perturbed cell-fibroblast interactions pathogenesis potential utility as novel clinical target for improved patient management.
