Ras-ling with new therapeutic targets for metastasis.

Abstract excerpt

Successful cancer metastasis relies on the ability of cancer cells to survive independently of attachment to the extracellular matrix (ECM) and to overcome ECM-detachment-induced death programs. This can be accomplished through activating mutations in cellular oncogenes that subsequently lead to the inhibition of anoikis and to alterations in productive metabolism. One example of such an oncogene is Ras which is...
