Abstract
Perhaps the most pressing need in cancer therapeutics is to understand drug resistance. In this issue of Cancer Cell, Hirata and colleagues show that melanoma-associated fibroblasts can drive resistance to the BRAF inhibitor PLX4720 by stimulating matrix production/remodeling, and, consequently, survival signaling in melanoma cells via β1-integrin, Src, and FAK.Entities:
