Onco-spheres are defined as where cancer cells (living organisms) dynamically interact with nontumor cellular (other living organisms) and noncellular components (non-living environmental factors) in the ?host? internal environment (habitat) to construct a self-sustainable cancer ecosystem, which can be scoped at three different levels: primary/regional, distal and systemic onco-spheres. Cancer cells should be conceived as ?living organisms?, interacting with cellular or noncellular components in the host internal environment, not only with the local tumor microenvironment (TME) but also constantly communicating with a distant organ niche as well interacting with the host?s nervous, endocrine and immune systems, to construct a self-sustainable ?biosphere?, as we termed the tumor ecosystem. By looking at the interaction of cancer and host as a unique ecosystem, we will use ecology principles to further delineate the features of the dynamics of the tumor ecosystem. As the pioneer in proposing this concept, we feel that this full-scale overview of the tumor ecosystem is able to inform the readers about this concept, and to pave the way for designing novel therapeutic strategies on actionable targets within tumor ecosystem. The book is likely to be of interest to immunologist, biologist, medical students, researchers and general public who wish to learn more on this new concept of tumor ecosystem, and how this could be applied in many fields of research. 606 $aMedicine?Research 606 $aBiology?Research 606 $aCancer 606 $aTumors?Immunological aspects 606 $aBiomedical Research 606 $aCancer Biology 606 $aCancer Microenvironment 606 $aTumour Immunology 615 0$aMedicine?Research. 615 0$aBiology?Research. 615 0$aCancer. 615 0$aTumors?Immunological aspects. 615 14$aBiomedical Research. 615 24$aCancer Biology. 615 24$aCancer Microenvironment. 615 24$aTumour Immunology. 676 $a616.994 702 $aSong$b Erwei 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910735779203321 996 $aTumor Ecosystem$93417153 997 $aUNINA
