Identification of key proteins in the signaling crossroads between wound healing and cancer hallmark phenotypes

Abstract Wound healing (WH) and cancer seem to share common cellular and molecular processes that could work in a tight balance to maintain tissue homeostasis or, when unregulated, drive tumor progression. The “Cancer Hallmarks” comprise crucial biological properties that mediate the advancement of...
