Mechanisms of cancer cell migration
The migration of cells in 3D media is a complex process and plays a key role in the development of cancers. During metastasis, cancer cells develop a strategy and a mode of migration adapted to their environment to invade other tissues.
In this study, we analyzed the migration of cancer cells with different metastatic potentials in various collagen matrices. The detailed analysis of cell movements enhanced the fact that cancer cells were also able to exhibit different phenotypes according to their metastatic potential.
