Researchers find ‘interactions’ between cancer cells and their environment
New research indicates that there are interactions between an animal cell and its surrounding environment within a fibrous network called the extracellular matrix and that in turn plays a vital role in how cells function, including migration and growth.
However, as Medical Xpress reports, scientists don’t yet fully understand the mechanical forces that govern such interactions. The site noted that a multidisciplinary team of engineers from Cornell University and colleagues from the University of Pennsylvania have come up with a way to measure the force a cell – in this instance, a breast cancer cell – exerts on its fibrous surroundings.
