    This study reinforces emerging concerns that the administration of mTOR inhibitors in cancer patients may actually confer higher risk of progression in some settings, possibly because of mTOR inhibition in the immune microenvironment, as opposed to tumor cells that may not be therapeutically desirable.

    RhoB is generally considered a cancer suppressor gene, but in vivostudies reveal that it exerts positive effects on angiogenesis that supercede its negative impact on cancer cells themselves, thereby illustrating how differential functions of a signaling protein in stromal cells can complicate the challenge of developing therapeutics that can effectively target cancer pathophysiology rather than cancer cells in isolation.
