Circulating tumor cells (CTCs) are tumor cells that have sloughed off the primary tumor and
extravasate into and circulate in the blood. Understanding of the metastatic cascade of CTCs …

Most cancer-associated deaths occur due to metastasis, yet our understanding of metastasis
as an evolving, heterogeneous, systemic disease and of how to effectively treat it is still …

Despite recent therapeutic advances in cancer treatment, metastasis remains the principal
cause of cancer death. Recent work has uncovered the unique biology of metastasis …

Cancer cell identity and plasticity are required in transition states, such as epithelial–
mesenchymal transition (EMT) and mesenchymal–epithelial transition (MET), in primary …

Metastases account for the great majority of cancer-associated deaths, yet this complex
process remains the least understood aspect of cancer biology. As the body of research …

Despite being the hallmark of cancer that is responsible for the highest number of deaths,
very little is known about the biology of metastasis. Metastatic disease typically manifests …

In recent years, exceptional technological advances have enabled the identification and
interrogation of rare circulating tumour cells (CTCs) from blood samples of patients, leading …

Epithelial stem cells serve critical physiological functions in the generation, maintenance
and repair of diverse tissues through their ability to self-renew and spawn more specialized …

The ability of cells to deal with different types of stressful situations in a precise and
coordinated manner is key for survival and involves various signalling networks. Over the …

Immuno-oncology is an emerging field that has revolutionized cancer treatment. Most
immunomodulatory strategies focus on enhancing T cell responses, but there has been a …
