Synergistic IL-6 and IL-8 paracrine signalling pathway infers a strategy to inhibit tumour cell migration
26 May 2017
Abstract excerpt
Following uncontrolled proliferation, a subset of primary tumour cells acquires additional traits/mutations to trigger phenotypic changes that enhance migration and are hypothesized to be the initiators of metastasis. This study reveals an adaptive mechanism that harnesses synergistic paracrine signalling via IL-6/8, which is amplified by cell proliferation and cell density, to directly promote cell migration....
