Cell motility of tumor cells visualized in living intact primary tumors using green fluorescent protein.

Abstract excerpt

Metastasis is the leading cause of death in cancer patients. Cell motility is believed to be a necessary step in the metastatic process (L. Liotta and W. G. Stetler-Stevenson, In: Cancer: Principles and Practice of Oncology, pp. 134-149, 1993). Currently, most methods available to study the behavior of metastatic tumor cells are indirect, e.g., cell motility is examined in vitro and the results are correlated...
