Lin Ye

Dr Lin Ye is a Senior Lecturer at the School of Medicine, Cardiff University. Their research focuses on cancer cell interactions with the extracellular matrix and tumor microenvironment, particularly investigating bone morphogenetic proteins (BMPs) and anthrax toxin receptors (ANTXR1/2). Key areas include metastasis mechanisms in breast/prostate cancers and therapeutic targeting strategies. Dr Ye has published extensively on BMP signaling roles in tumor progression, ECM interactions, and peritoneal metastasis. Their work integrates molecular biology, cell biology, and translational oncology approaches.

Research interests span:

• BMP-mediated tumor-stroma crosstalk
• ECM remodeling in metastasis
• ANTXR1/CMG2 roles in cancer progression
• Hormonal regulation of tumor microenvironment
• Therapeutic targeting of metastatic niches

Recent articles highlight exploration of hyaluronic acid interactions in peritoneal metastasis, BMP8B dual roles in gastric cancer, and mechanistic studies of CMG2 in pancreatic dissemination. Work emphasizes biomarker discovery and drug resistance mechanisms in colorectal/gastric cancers.
