Stroma, mainly composed by fibroblasts, extracellular matrix (ECM) and vessels, may play a role in tumorigenesis and cancer progression. Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease (COPD) is an independent risk factor for LC. We hypothesized that markers of fibroblasts, ECM and endothelial cells may differ in tumors of LC patients with/without COPD. Markers of cultured cancer-associated fibroblasts and normal fibroblasts [CAFs and NFs, respectively, vimentin and alpha-smooth muscle actin (SMA) markers, immunofluorescence in cultured lung
