Cancer cell-induced matrix remodeling in 3D culture
2014
FOM Institute AMOLF, Amsterdam, Netherlands
Development of a new assay to study cancer cell migration in a hydrogel-based 3D model is presented. In the presence of human breast cancer cells, there is a reorganisation of the fibres of the extracellular matrix done by "leader" cells, which subsets the matrix in different subregions. Afterwards, other cells following a more randomised migratory profile invade these subsetted regions. This platform supports the study of micromechanical propertiesof cell cancer migration.
