Selective sensitiveness of mesenchymal cells to shock waves leads to anticancer effect in human cancer cell co-cultures
Mesenchymal cells (MSC) possess the distinctive feature of homing in on and engrafting into the tumor stroma making their therapeutic applications in cancer treatment very promising. Research into new effectors and external stimuli, which can selectively trigger the release of cytotoxic species from MSC toward the cancer cells, significantly raises their potential.
