Using a sensitizing genetic model, Moon and colleagues provide compelling data for a determinant role of microenvironment in tumorigenesis, and lend support to the notion that such influences can be pharmacologically dampened to reduce the onset of cancers.
利用一种敏化遗传模型，Moon 及其同事提供了令人信服的数据，证明了微环境在肿瘤发生中的决定性作用，并支持这样一种观点，即可以通过药理学手段抑制这种影响，从而降低癌症的发病风险。
