[Molecular mechanism of tumor progression. From Krompecher to the DNA microarray].

Abstract excerpt

Rate limiting steps of the metastatic cascade are proliferation-independent cellular events integrated into the common sequence of tumor cell-extracellular matrix interactions (adhesion, degradation, migration). The two common dissemination forms, lymphatic and hematogenous, are highly similar in respect of the individual steps, but fundamentally different in respect of tissue specificity. Although the scheme of...
