A cancer diagnosis is understandably stressful for a patient. But how does chronic stress influence cancer progression and metastasis? In this episode, Dr. Xue-Yan He discusses her recent research on the impact of stress on the tumour microenvironment, with a focus on the altered balance between neutrophils and lymphocytes and its role in promoting tumour spread.

This study, published in Cancer Cell (Volume 42, Pages 474–486), was selected for the EACR Highlights in Cancer Research, showcasing its significance to the field.
