Disordered tissue environments may promote cancer spread
Original: Disordered environments around tumour cells can promote cancer spread
New research highlighted by Physics World suggests that disordered environments surrounding tumour cells can actively promote the spread of cancer. Rather than being passive bystanders, the chaotic structural and mechanical properties of tissue around a tumour may help cancer cells migrate, offering a fresh perspective on how metastasis begins and potential new targets for treatment.
Why now: New physics-based cancer research offers a fresh angle on metastasis that could influence future treatment approaches
