The tumour microenvironment is increasingly recognized as an
important contributor to cancer progression and treatment. However,
most cancer studies continue to be performed in 2D tissue culture
dishes that do not capture the characteristics of the tumour niche.
This book provides an introduction to the rich chemical,
topographical, and mechanical cues in the tumour microenvironment
and then introduces readers to bioengineering strategies, including
scaffold design and synthesis, chemical signalling and delivery,
and co-culture, microfluidics, and organ-on-a-chip tools that can
be used to mimic tumour microenvironment features. This book also
includes discussion of emerging imaging methods compatible with
tumour microenvironment mimicking biomaterials and discusses
applications of such models in immuno-oncology, metastasis, and
drug screening. Edited by two leaders in the field, this book will
appeal to graduate students and researchers working in biomaterials
science, chemical and biomedical engineering departments.
