The Cancer Diaspora: Metastasis beyond the Seed and Soil Hypothesis

8 Oct 2013

Abstract excerpt

Do cancer cells escape the confinement of their original habitat in the primary tumor or are they forced out by ecologic changes in their home niche? Describing metastasis in terms of a simple one-way migration of cells from the primary to the target organs is an insufficient concept to cover the nuances of cancer spread. A diaspora is the scattering of people away from an established homeland. To date,...
