GABA signaling by melanoma cells was found by Tagore and colleagues to trigger keratinocyte-driven growth of melanomas. This study reveals new roles for nonneuronal signaling by a neurotransmitter in regulating tumor initiation and outgrowth. See related article by Tagore et al., p. 2270 (4).
Tagore 及其同事发现黑色素瘤细胞的 GABA 信号会触发角质形成细胞驱动黑色素瘤的生长。这项研究揭示了神经递质的非神经元信号在调节肿瘤起始和生长中的新作用。参见 Tagore 等人的相关文章,第 2270 页(4)。
