Metallothionein 2A Expression in Cancer-Associated Fibroblasts and Cancer Cells Promotes Esophageal Squamous Cell Carcinoma Progression

Esophageal cancer has the sixth highest mortality rate worldwide. Cancer-associated fibroblasts (CAFs) are involved in the progression of various cancers. Previously, we demonstrated an association between high expression of the CAF marker, fibroblast activation protein, and poor prognosis of esopha...
