Stromal Cells
Stromal cells are a type of connective tissue cell that provide physical structure and support to organs and tissues throughout the body. They also produce proteins and hormones that can regulate organ growth, immune system maintains, and metabolic processes. Additionally, stromal cells can act as both antigen-presenting cells and immune cells, ensuring efficient immune responses against foreign invaders. Recent research suggests that stromal cells play an important role in the development of cancer, tissue regeneration, and wound healing, making them of great value in a number of medical and therapeutic applications.
