Abstract excerpt
Tumor development is accompanied by strong physico-chemical modifications. Among them, compressive stress can emerge in both the epithelial and stromal compartments. Using a simple two-dimensional compression assay which consisted in placing an agarose weight on top of adherent cells, we studied the impact of compressive stress on cell proliferation and motility in different pancreatic cancer cell lines. We...
