This project investigates the mechanisms of cancer cell intravasation, a key step in metastasis. It aims to understand how mechanical properties influence this process, using a microfluidic platform to study cancer cells' behavior in controlled environments.
Cancer still is one of the world’s deadliest diseases.
Most devastating is the ability of cancer cells to spread throughout the body in a multistep process called metastasis, the major cause for mortality. A critical step is intravasation, when cancer cells pass a blood vessel wall to enter the blood stream, and travel to another location to create a secondary tumor.
However, the mechanisms of intravasation are still largely unexplored, even though it is pivotal: if we can prevent it, cancer do…
