Dynamic roles of inflammasomes in inflammatory tumor microenvironment

Abstract The inflammatory tumor microenvironment has been known to be closely connected to all stages of cancer development, including initiation, promotion, and progression. Systemic inflammation in the tumor microenvironment is increasingly being recognized as an important prognostic marker in can...
