Inflammatory Auxo-Action in the Stem Cell Division Theory of Cancer
June 2023
TLDR Reviewers suggest clarifying the abstract, adding background on inflammation's effect on cancer, discussing immune cell roles, including counter studies, and correcting grammar.
The document is a peer review of a revised manuscript discussing the relationship between inflammation and its impact on cancer stem cells and cancer progression. The reviewers were generally satisfied with the authors' responses to their comments, particularly regarding basic reporting, experimental design, and the validity of the findings. However, they suggested improvements such as revising the abstract for clarity, providing more background information on the effect of inflammatory responses on stem cells and cancer progression, discussing the role of different immune cells in regulating the tumor microenvironment, and including studies that suggest inflammation lowers cancer growth. They also recommended the inclusion of future studies and open questions to stimulate further research, and pointed out several grammatical errors that need correction for clarity and readability.
