Formation of motile cell clusters in heterogeneous model tumors: the role of cell-cell alignment
Quirine J. S. Braat, Cornelis Storm, Liesbeth M. C. Janssen
Circulating tumor cell clusters play an important role in the metastatic cascade. These clusters can acquire a migratory and more invasive phenotype, and coordinate their motion to…
