Tumor-on-a-chip for integrating a 3D tumor microenvironment: chemical and mechanical factors
Abstract
Tumor progression is significantly influenced by factors such as mechanical force, shear stress, chemotaxis, and hypoxia. Here, we reviewed recent achievements and presented potential directions for tumor-on-a-chip systems in the future.
