Cancer-related deaths primarily occur due to metastasis, a process involving the migration and invasion of cancer cells. In most solid tumors, metastasis occurs through collective cell migration (CCM), guided by “cellular leaders”. These leader cells generate forces through actomyosin-mediated protrusion and contractility. The cytoskeletal mechanisms employed by metastatic cells during... Read more »
