Abstract:
Ovarian cancer(OC)is an aggressive and fatal cancer. A growing number of studies have shown that the tumor mi-croenvironment(TME)is involved in the promotion and development of ovarian cancer,immunosuppression and inflammatory response through various mechanisms. TME includes tumor blood vessels and lymphatic vessels,as well as cancer cells,mesenchymal cells,im-mune cells,and extracellular matrix(ECM). Based on recent literature reports,this paper reviews the commonly used three-dimen-sional(3D)cell culture model of ovarian tumor microenvironment,and summarizes many 3D models that do not contain primitive stro-mal cells,aiming to find new approaches for ovarian cancer treatment.
