Abstract
The extracellular matrix (ECM) is a dynamic entity known to play an important role in cancer progression, influencing the behaviour of both cancer and stromal cells. In colon cancer, high stromal content is associated to poor patient prognosis. However, it is still unclear what is the specific contribution of the ECM for cancer cell stemness and immune escape.
