#Cancer cells can detach from the original tumor and travel through the bloodstream to form metastases in the body. An international #research team investigated how the mechanical properties of #tumor cells influence their metastatic pathway. The key finding: viscosity โ rather than elasticity โ determines how tumor cells invade surrounding tissue.

#MitochondrialDynamics are important regulators of various cancer cell phenotypes. This Essay explores the role of mitochondrial dynamic regulators in #tumor growth & #metastasis, discussing how they can be targeted to develop novel intervention strategies

#Neutrophils are very abundant and generally helpful #immune cells. However, in tumors they can misfire and form large clumps that block blood vessels. This blockage causes necrosis & metabolic adaptation of #tumor and #metastasis.

A great read on #DrugResistance in #cancer, in Nature, by Vasan, Baselga, and Hyman. Sure, 2019 is four years ago, so there will be updates, e.g. on mapping #CancerDependency or the role of #ctDNA in early detection or monitoring. But the framework for understanding drug resistance is here.

Although it doesn't say it, I think it may be #OpenAccess since I'm not logged in to my institution right now but can reach full text anyway.
