Normal stroma suppresses cancer cell proliferation via mechanosensitive regulation of JMJD1a-mediated transcription

The tumour stroma has altered stiffness and matrix architecture compared to normal tissue, which favours proliferation, and invasion. Here, the authors find that the extracellular matrix produced by normal fibroblasts inhibits cancer cell proliferation through mechanosensitive downregulation of JMJD...
