- Summary
- This novel assay addresses an unmet need of measuring the mechanical stimulation required to induce cancer cells to leave the tumor and metastasize. The assay has applicability in the pharmaceutical industry where it can be used to screen for inhibitors of mechanically induced invasion/metastasis. Additionally, the assay can have clinically utility in assess a solid tumor’s potential to metastasize and priming normal cells for transplantation.
