Growth of tumor emboli within a vessel model reveals dependence on the magnitude of mechanical constraint
2020-07-06
Abstract excerpt
<h4>ABSTRACT</h4> Tumor emboli – aggregates of tumor cell within vessels – pose a clinical challenge as they are associated with increased metastasis and tumor recurrence. When growing within a vessel, tumor emboli are subject to a unique mechanical constraint provided by the tubular geometry of the vessel. Current models of tumor emboli use unconstrained multicellular tumor spheroids, which neglect this mechanic...
